, you're different reed, you're jack reed.for lot lot lot to resign, then harry reid should step down? >> there was huge pressure from president bush for trent lott to step down. the comments was an apparent, maybe inadvertent commendation of senator thurmond activities in the '50s and '60s where he was a staunch opponent of civil rights legislation. that's a totally different context. harry reid made a misstatement. he owned up to it and apologized. i think he is mortified by the. stay he's made. i don't think he should step down. i think he is a valuable member of the senate and someone who will continue to lead. >> chris: all right. let's go back to the reason we invited you here, which is national security. let's go through the main reforms that the president imposed this week and is planning to implement. prioritize threat, beef up intelligence on yemen, review the visa and watch list system and enhance screening at airports. senator kyl, are you satisfied that this is the right response and sufficient to keep the country

harry reed has a dialect. the president talk like he want to talk and do what he want to do and get rid of that harry reed. host: twitter says racist are out in droves. tea backers want they're country back. republican line, good morning to you, sam. caller: i'm call together say hillary is right. there's a dialect and this is coming from a republican and even more important is this. i see like interview people like michelle. please bring us intelligent thinkers. don't sway your thoughts. i am one of it but most of it's wrong. please talk about trying pull it a side on c-span which is our only last, remaining true network. i mean, why - when you know definitely what they're going to say. why you bring them? we don't need so many intelligence people in america. middle of the line, host: sam, i expect you will hear all points of view on this network. we have three networks we're here 3 hours every morning. caller: yeah but this is making country so polarized. everything obama says is that way. bring in educators

then it becomes a personal issue for senator reed. does he believe that with this on his record he should still maintain his position as a leader in the senate. it is a democrat issue. it is a personal issue. republicans ought to stand on the side lines and let the democrats work through this process. >> schieffer: all right. let's turn to this whole week that we've just been through. that is the terrorism threat. the big thing that happened. the president's response this week. senator feinstein, did the president go for enough? what needs to happen now? >> well, the senate select committee on intelligence is doing a review of the situation and will issue a report with findings and recommendations. we hope to have the staff work done by the 21st. we'll have our first hearing on this january 21. i think there are a number of things. one, so much intelligence comes in today. i've been watching this and also in other instances where there are missed opportunities because intelligence isn't transmitted properly and it results either in de

reed spent all day yesterday

senator reed quickly apologized. he spoke to president obama who i said issued a statement saying the case is closed. he accepts the apology. governor kaine, should there be a consequence for these remarks? >> i think the case is closed because president obama has spoken directly with the leader and accepted his apology. the comments were unfortunate and they were insensitive. they were inhe context of praising the senator and acknowledging that the senator could be a great president but they were still insensitive. i think senator reed stepped up, acknowledged they were wrong. we're moving on. >> michael steele,ack in 2002 trent lott was ousted for insensitive remarks he said that strom thurmond, had he been elected president would have had some of the problems over all of those years, then state senator obama said at that point that lott ought to be ousted as majority leader. you see a difference between then and now? >> oh, yeah, there is a dig double standard here. the thing about it that's interesting is that wh

plus, a big tragedy in virginia, a big ripoff, and a big scandal at walter reed all next on news watch >> let's begin this segment with a look at the top five stories of 2007. nancy pelosi becomes the first woman ever elected speaker of the house of representatives. a federal jury convicts i lewis scooter l scooter libby, former chief of staff. a shooter at virginia tech kills 32 people. a highway bridge over the miss misriver collapses during rush hour. the top media story of the year at walter reed army medical center after "the washington post" launches an investigation into the mishandling of reports of soldiers injured in iraq and afghanistan had received poor treatment there. that story was such a surprise, judy. i mean, people like to think that our soldiers at least for all of their sacrifices are getting the best carry and the media blew the lid off it. >> it was a great piece of reporting at "the washington post." it was really the kind of reporting that everybody could acknowledge. this is obvious what the pulitzer prize is going to be this year, becau

that is the true measure and test of the democracy when what henry reed was saying is the politics ofsm how the electorate is shaped when somebody who was not light skinned or perceived as speaking as if he were not a black person could win an election. >> host: did you believe they will then would be elected before an african american? >> guest: it seemed as if senator clinton was poised and thinking of women around the country, they are ready for that. and a way it seemed as if that would happen especially because before barack obama arrived if we look at those landscape of the black elected political leaders it did not seem if anyone had the impossibility of becoming president. >> host: we're just about out of time. but i enjoyed this a lot we are talking with peniel jospeh a professor of history at tufts university. who has a very deep and complex book, "dark days, bright nights" from black power to barack obama" the congratulations and continued success out there. >> guest: think you. i and to avoid this conversation. .

prey because they believe the british government crackdown is scapegoating them as when minister john reed came talk to their parents. >> there are fanatics who are looking to groom and brainwash children including your children so all i say is look for those telltale signs now. >> one of those fanatics was in the room waiting to pounce. >> when they come to your own houses, when your house is raided or your sister is raped you will be irate. >> omar brooks, a self-styled religious leader of an extremist group that is banned. >> he went in there and he shouted and hollered at everybody and everything is thinking this guy is the system. >> where is your freedom of speech now? >> they are considered heroes for the younger guys. >> you should not come to a muslim area. we don't want to see john reed or tony blair. >> it is easy for those guys to come back into the community and have a lot of supporters. >> these people, many self-appointed clerics are dominating the national debate and the debate within islam right now. they are the loudest voices. how is that possible? >> our scholars have e

senator reed said obama could win the race because he was a quote, life skin fram with no negro dialect. herued a -- he issued a formal apology. he said i apologize for my improper comments. president obama accepted the apology and considers the matter over. >>> and senator reid helped push through the health care bill. and now a big named clinic is being touted as an example of what could go wrong with the health care plan. melanie wilkes reports on why the mayo clinic in arizona has some people pretty worried. >> costs will finally come down for families, businesses and our government. >> reporter: president obama wants lawmakers to push through a health care bill when they return from recess. he says once the law takes hold, patients and doctors will have more control over medical decisions. >> the worst practice in the insurance industry will be forever banned. >> reporter: but critics say mayo clinic could be a future. they have stopped treated medicare patients because reimbursements doesn't cover costs. the republicans say the president is backing a plan that doesn't address the

. >> senator reed feels strongly we should move the jobs bill and that there is an urgent priority to meeting about a week ago and talked about common elements. maybe we could move a larger package. maybe it has to be a smaller package, but one way or the 'qñother, senator reid is inten. Ñi>> you talk about -- can you talk aboutçóÑi the caucus aftere massachusetts the election? >> the massachusetts election was a shock. no question about that. i sink no one predicted massachusetts was going to be a big problem. ted kennedy held that seat for many decades. he is a great senator, and we fully expected the senator seat in massachusetts would be filled by a democrat, but the fact is we are all temporary occupants, and the people of massachusetts have their own idea of the people they wanted to send here at this moment. fist i think in many ways it is a wake-up call. the american people want to send a message to congress. i think all of us understand that message. we have got to get the fiscal policy in order. we have to find ways to give people confidence over the future of this country.

guest: t(senator kerry reed fees strongly we should move on a jobs bill. -- harry reid feels we shoulde on a jobs bill. senator baucus is important. we met and we could go and talk about the common elements. maybe we could move a larger package or a smaller package. in one way or the other,ç senar harry reidqç is intent on gettg a jobs bill. hostthe massachusetts election s a shocker. no question about that. çprobably toç the three of yos well. i think no one predicted that massachusetts would be of great problem. kennedy held that seat for many decades. it was a great senator. i was privileged to work with him. we expected to seek to be filled by a democrat. the fact is, we are already -- all temporary occupants. in many ways, it is a wake-up call. i]çthe american people and the people of massachusetts want to send a message. i think all those understand that message, perhaps more now than before. we have to get fiscal policy in( order. we have to find ways to get people back to work and give them confidence about the future of this country. >>ç ççtalking about massachu, here

. >> schieffer: cheap reed, vice president cheney has been leading the republican attack. he said that the president simply is pretending that we're not at war with al qaeda. isn't the president going to really have to step out and take some decisive action here if for no other reason than just to counter this kind of criticism from the other side? >> well, you talk to them and they believe he already has. with the two statements that he gave and then the address that he gave yesterday, but, you know, the criticism diana and i think the reason it resonate s is because he becomes across a bit detached and cerebral when he makes these statements. when he finally did express frustration and maybe a little anger it wasn't so much towards the terrorists. it was toward the people who didn't stop them. so, you know, is there going to be the kind of change in tone that a lot of people really want? i think he's just going to continue to be president obama. he's not going to get out there with a megaphone and sound more angry than he naturally allows himself to be. so i think you're

some comments from the senate democratic leader, harry reed getting a lot of attention. they quote him as saying he could do well as a candidate because he was light skinned and didn't speak with a negro dialect unless he wanted to have one. reid's apologized for the comments. the president said the book is closed on this. is it? >> reid was in trouble already. he's up for re-election and behind both possible opponents. he's got a 52% unfavorable rating in the state of nevada. this was a private conversation. meant to be private with the book's authors. reid was explaining why he was pushing obama to be the candidate in the first place. his words were unfortunate. he's admitted that. i think the fact that the president has said this case is closed, the fact that other african-american leaders have come out, will at least tamp this down for now. reid has serious political problems at home right now. >> pretty stunning for the majority leader of the senate to have the problems back at home. i know you're talking about the economy this morning. the new numbers out. what do

basically says it is not going to effect the quality of education. >> i think michelle reed has done terrific job. she's right. i read something not long ago. in this tough economy, one area where cuts aren't being played out in legislation. i hope we taylor our education dollars to a reform and not preservation of the status quo. host: talking about a average college prep program. a bunch of african american young men learning to tie their neck ties. guest: by the way, that's a nice tie you are wearing. it speaks to my point about not having this one size fits all mind set. have you the different ways to reach to kids to invigorate their excitement of learning. can you explain to me why the children in fifth grade are not taught penmanship. i have a grandson in college. he does notify how to write. everything is on the computer. where are they going to learn penmanship. i don't understand this. guest: i don't know that. i do know that sometimes we have to go back to the future. a lot of leaders are starting to go back to the basics. they've taken away a lot of the new approaches tha

first place i should point out that i have talked with michelle reed several times and we've exchanged e-mails on occasion. for those who may not be aware of it, she is the c.e.o.-superintendent, called now chancellor. i believe, and i told her this, that early on, she would need someone besides the mayor as her protector. her fire wall. because she's picking up as already demonstrated, the slings and arrows aimed at him and she's getting some of the flack. she also fell into the trap that i fell into. when i wanted to close 18 schools, i did not do as much homework as i should have done by going to the public and explaining it to them and getting them to be supportive. she wanted to close 23 schools. and had the same challenge. the same problem that i had. recently, when she wanted to fire 280 some people, for budgetary reasons, sort of raises the question, somebody must have known about in budget back in july when they hired the teachers, some 800 on 700 teachers, whatever number they hired. those things you can deal with, but the fact that she may have been hired without the support

that look at walter reed and independent review group.nd it's my understanding and is really picks up on something that admiral clark said as well, that in looking at the care of the mental health professionals or providers or professionals overall, they looked at the issue of provider fatigue, medical provider fatigue. what can you tell us about what you saw in that instance and the review and the questions that were raised? have we made progress? i know that trantwo's and yes, we need to look at those. we need to look at how we are treating with it, this issue. what have we done? >> well, i had an answer for you until you said what have we done. because i think we need to be able to give you that answer more specifically than i can today. i remember sitting in a hearing two years ago at the bethesda naval ashman at the naval medical center at bethesda. and seeing health care professional, an officer, stand up in the stands and say it's good that you're here and that you're looking at the care that we provide to those who have served and

look at richard reed, the shoe bomber, he was tried, convicted and sentenced in court. we try to adapt the tools in the right way, we are also a country of laws, this was an individual who was arrested on u.s. soil. if we decide at some point that we're going to charge and hold somebody under the enemy combatant status, it's a tool available to us. we made a decision to do this. we have great confidence in the fbi and other individuals in terms of debriefing, we have great confidence in our court system so can we can use that to our advantage. and individuals in the past have, in fact, given us very valuable information as they've gone through the plea agreement process. >> and let me just ask you one more question about mr. abdulmutallab. because there is a report in "newsweek" this morning that you personally received intelligence against from saudi officials that al qaeda might try to use an explosive hidden in underwear. that's what mr. umar abdulmutallab did. what did you do with that information when you got it? >> i think the report or referring to is the attempt

we tried and convicted yusef here and timothy mcveigh and richard reed. you hear these folks suggest if you believe in the constitution you don't believe in safety, that's false. that's a false thing. >> i think the majority of americans don't give a fig about the rights of a radical islamic extremist. >> then they're wrong. >> i think they care about the constitution. >> larry: ron, you want to get in on this? >> i think their care about their lives and family's lives. >> larry: ron. >> how does everybody -- how does everybody able to convict. i mean, in this country it used to be you were suspects and you had a trial. but now the -- she's advocating torture. can you imagine how much harm those torture pictures did to us? i'm absolutely positive that there was a great deal of harm done in the muslim world to radicalize thousands because that was the image of america. from the little bit of information they might have got by water boarding and undermining the goodness of america that we're now the torturers of the world. both parties accept the bush doctr

>> i'm embarrassed for harary reed. i would say harry how many black people do you know? okay? there's not one negro dialect, and this is something that's the bayne of my existence for a long time. i've never heard for anyone call for one single dialect. people are people. there are different ways of talking. it blows my mind and its very sad to see what lies just below the surface of someone that one would think is a democrat, might be a little more liberal-minded. it's more proof at how having the first black president is blowing people's minds. >> jeff johnson, is it racist? >> no. i think that it was -- i think it was in bad taste, but there were a whole lot of black folks that said that. black folks said he was a respectable black guy. they were black people that said, is he black enough? so i think that this was an accurate statement. he is light-skinned and he was a safe black person. he was a break from what we saw normally from the activism of a jesse jackson or al sharpton running for president. he was a safe negro. >> i really have a problem with that. >> have a prob

greg reed. >>> thank you, mr. kidd, and good morning, everyone. it's certainly a pleasure to be here with this distinguished panel on energy management. i'd like to start by complementing richard and the federal energy management program for setting an example nation wide for all of us to follow in this area as we work to meet our goals in energy sustainability in the private, public and academic sectors. what i'd like to do this morning is talk a little bit about the broad overview of challenges and opportunities that we have in the power and energy sectors where energy management fits in and how we can look strategically as collaboration among industry government and academia to achieve success in meeting our energies overall goal goals waes move towards future energy independence in america and sustainability. first i'd like to talk a little bit about our power and energy initiative at the university of pittsburgh. our initiative is built around three main goals. the first is to educate the next generation of power and energy engineering profes

reed had in the senate democratic leader. especially backing obama pub and saying this was an attribute calling him the fact that he's a light skinned african-americans and did not use the maker dialect unless he wanted to. and there was a lot of back-and-forth on that over the week and what do you make of that comment and the controversy that spurred? >> guest: i think it just shows the complexity, the african americans face when they are trying to judge the sincerity of even their supporters in terms of harry reid politically is not a right-wing politician. he is a democrat. he is one of the people pushing health care. he was neutral initially during the campaign but then when obama became the nominee she was a vms importer and now we know for this book behind the scenes he was a supporter who wanted obama to run. so on one level we can think of read as somebody who even though he is a great at gyroball mikey still had his own racial issues in terms of the way in which he perceives black people and he is coming out of a bab

just a few decades ago was that it should be limited as recently as 1989 the head of citicorp john reed was warning we had to cut back deposit insurance. have less or we would have financial crises including for his bank later. ... >> it's wrong to have czars sitting on throws to make the kingdom more nervous. we will let her ladies out for you, and then howard will help nicole to questions. welcome, maestro. [applause] >> thank you, amity, for that generous introduction. and limiting deposit insurance to actually insured deposits is a radical concept. going with amity's chanel metaphor, coco chanel said in the 1920s, that simplicity is the keynote of elegance. she was not talking about financial markets, but she may as well have been. as hopefully, if i do my job right, you will see at the end of my little talk. so a failure of free markets, that is what the last two years look like too many people. we've had the financial system destroy itself so thoroughly that the government had to come along and provided with essentially nationalization of all of its risk, so that money and credit

can i join the prime minister in paying tribute to captain cannel reed who died in afghanistan servinguntry. as the prime minister said the work of bomb disposal experts is truly inspiring when we hear what they do to protect their comrades. i also join him in sending our sincere condolences to the friends and family of rupert. he and photographer phil remind us of the bravery andt( professionalism of journalists who put their lives at risk to make sure they report to the work on our armed services overseas. totally with his records about the terror events in haiti and send my support to those involved in the humanitarian effort. and obviously we look forward to a full statement in this house by the international development secretary when that is appropriate.ç the whole country will want to praise the work of emergency services and the way they dealt with unexpected long spell of cold weather. we have seen and heard incredible stories as well about neighbor helpingç neighbor.ç can the prime minister assure us that everything that can be done is being done to make sure we have suffi

milton friedman, the reed friedman he will see he actually says most of these ideas are adam smith. i am just regurgitating them but i think what he did, what friedman did and his followers is they took him too far. the two specific examples of this which again are quite complicated but is one theory called efficient market hypothesis which is basically the financial markets always get things right. the second theory called rational expectations hypothesis is the hypothesis that everyone is smart enough to foresee the future or systematically foresee the future. those quite complicated mathematical theories took over a lot of economics in this sort of late '60s, '70s and '80s and had a lot of influence on policy. the whole idea of the financial markets of self regulating can be left to their own devices. the intellectual underpinning of that idea is the chicago school efficient markets they are easily spend a bit of time explaining that, and then the second. i call the tradition utopian economics. it seems to me this not largely based on reality. the second third of the buchheit the

in the past richard reed, the former shoe bomber, all of them were charged in criminal courts, were sentenced in some cases to life imprisonment. we have tools available whether it's enemy combatant or charge them criminally. we look at the cases and in this case decided it was best to charge them criminally. >> would there be additional intelligence that could be gleaned by making him an enemy combatant? do you believe whatever you are learning from him was the christmas day plot part of something larger from al qaeda and the arain bran peninsula? >> we have different ways of obtaining information. a lot of people as they understand what they are facing and their lawyers recognize that there is advantage to talking to us, in terms of plea agreements we're going to pursue that. so, we are continuing to look at ways that we can extract information from him. as far as a broader plot that's one of the things that the intelligence community is working to see if we can uncover. was he a singleton. we're doing everything possible to identify somebody. >> what does your intelligence tell you now? >>

republican phisophy and how you approachax policy just like i don't expect eaker pelosi or speaker reed tdo at in the area of, say, social security. that's why this commission would have been succesul because you would have h pele at the table first who understand t issues which is very important and whoave a commitment to doing sothing about the issues but also wh carry thr portfolios of their vaous constituencies of the two parties. any product they produce, i believe, would have goen strong suppo. i belie it wouldn't have solved the whole pblem. we doesn't couldt do that but it wou have been a significant ep down the road towards getting this pblem under contro remember, this problem i undeniable. we a facing a fiscal bankruptcy of this natio within 7 t10 years if we do not step up and starto do something out controlling the size of the debtf our country. >> woodruff: senator conra now ha that it has ge down for now, we're told th the white houssays the president is condering appointing by executive order group that wouldo something similar. would that be fective some. >> look,he rea

ironclad strong when he had 70% approval rating you saw folks like eric cantor saying we don't like reed and pelosi but we like president obama. that tone shifted when the conservative grass roots shifted. that was a basic political miscalculation. cynthia makes a reasonable point. had the president focused for example on some kind of medicaid reform on expanding access to medicare that would have been a shrewd incremental strategy that democrats could have built on. instead it was something that was very, very hard to sell to the rank-and-file voteres in the middle and some on the central right. >> brown: i have to ask you in our last time because we're in the journalistic time of looking at one year. but history tells us that a lot can change after one year. >> oh, yeah. you know where franklin roosevelt stood in the polls one year before he carried 46 out of 48 states. he was at 50% in the gallup poll. remember, bill clinton who, of course, in many ways, the republicans their history that is repeating is not 1933 but 1993. they think barack obama is bill clinton. of course, bill clint
