senator max baucus, treasury secretary geithner, gene sperling, congressman eric kanter, and the omb director are all part of those discussions. back to "the baltimore sun" about speaker boehner's speech. it says "there must be honest conversations about the health care program." we will show you a little bit of that press conference, as well. first, let's go to your thoughts. margaret, an independent in indiana. what do you think? caller: i believe that the republicans are really trying to defeat obama and they are taking it out on the classes -- the poor people in the middle class -- to benefit themselves. host: margaret, are you still there? caller: yes. host: did you finish up? caller: yes. host: we will go on to mike in fredericksburg, virginia. caller: i have a question and comment. my question is, is it ever going to be time to stop raising the debt ceiling? speaker boehner is right that the entitlements are what is driving the debt. i do not think that speaker boehner or anybody else really wants to stand up and tell the truth about the situation. we have created a society th

deeper dives on agency security is what we call the cyberstat process with the collaboration work of omb. we have been working to roll out that greater focus, and again, in full partnership with the department of commerce who has the lead on the development of standards for the federal information security management act to work together to deploy a focus on continuing monitoring, on realtime metrics, and we'll continue the process that will accelerate if an appropriate act is passed. >> all right. thanks. i have a question for the entire panel. you spoke proudly of the department's ability to put together a good team and attract more well-qualified people, but the question i have for the panel in order to effectively improve cybersecurity both in government and the private sector, we're going to need to attract a significant number of additional qualified people with the same skills as though seeking to do us harm. what kind of job do you think we've done today in finding those people not just in the department, but outside the department, and not just in the government, but outside gov

it does seem that there is a common thread that things do bogged down at omb.anything that you can do to move things along and get things expedited to the extent that they can, i think that would be helpful. i cannot tell you how long it took to get through the control pharmaceutical e-prescribing situation, and that was in. pretty much everyone on board as to the direction it should go. i do not know what you call it, but impatient i guess, with federal rulemaking. you may be in a position to expedite, and if you can, i would urge you to do so. and i thank you for your many years of dedicated service in this area, both of you. we have people out in our streets and in the streets of foreign countries every day who are resourceful and brave and take extraordinary risks to protect us. we have had the pleasure and privilege of working with the dea agents and they are among the most fun americans i have ever had the chance to work with. thank you for being here on their behalf. the panel is excused. it will take a two-minute break while the next panel assembles its

gordon adams who oversaw the national security budgeting at the omb under president clinton said that this review is, quote, going too fast to mean something, and of quote. they would undoubtedly benefit from and more direct of national security guidance issued by the white house. it will also benefit from refinements of the strategic making process within the dod, the quadrennial defense review, qdr. but we must take care to arrive at these decisions only after meaningful analysis and deliberations we in congress% to our oversight responsibilities must insist must defeat to the this deliberation occurs. now already goldwater nichols, that act of 86, requires a president to submit the annual report on the national security strategy to congress ideally such guidance will serve as a tool for interpreting and reconciling the national security related activities of all government agencies as follows balancing u.s. activities with those of our partners and allies around the world but in practice reports in the national security strategy don't prioritize among the multitude of national secu

the regulatory review process within omb, i'm sorry and running over a little bit. the process brings all of the executive agencies around the table to reach a compromise about what a united you about the executive branch agency regulation should be. second of all i would be happy to talk about the regulatory capture point mr. levitin said but suffice it to say the banks are not the only special-interest in this debate. there are lots of special interests and the question is how we create a structure that makes sure that the resulting rules are the public interest and not a productive one special-interest or another. >> thank you mr. chairman. thank you for your testimony. i thank all of you for reading and for being here and understanding the congressional schedule tends to link in things. mr. levitin, you mentioned in your testimony, you mention occ is an apt comparison to the cfpb. and ms. warren's testimony she also mentions that as the appropriate comparison. why do you believe that to be the case? >> one of the primary reasons we separate, the congress separat

but according to both cbo and omb they are going to climb back up of the 18% gdp by the time we get to020. so, obviously, balancing the budget is a simple matter, bring the spending back down to where it was as a share of gdp when bill clinton left office. [inaudible] >> isn't it inflation than real growth. the problem here is that they never got to 26. they got to 20% in -- prior to 9/11 but ever since they dropped the revenue, we need sincere cuts below the baseline in order to stimulate the true growth. we need to re-establish these markets to get off the bubble machine that we've been deriving our income from. >> the inflation washes out on both sides of the ledger, obviously, it's bad to have inflation but that's separate in many ways from the issue of the burden of government spending as a share of the economy and looking at the deficit and debt because it's too high. >> that's great. i will agree with everything dan just said. one of the reasons that we are having a slow recovery right now -- one of the reasons that the unemployment 9% is because the government is so big and the
