rhine's main argument is that the formula used to determine which jurisdictions in the country should be subject to section 5's requirement that any voting change precleared by the department of justice or a federal district court in washington is outdated that it did serve its purpose when it's designed in 1964 to target that discrimination prevalent at the time. but when congress took up the act in 2006 it didn't do a state-by-state analysis as it should have he believes to determine whether certain states should newly be covered or old covered states be taken out. >> brown: this sounds like very heated and dramatic questioning. >> it was very intense. >> intense is your word. it sounds as though that argument found favor from the conservative justices. tell us about what that, what you heard from them. >> they focused for their questions for the lawyer for the united states, solicitor general donald verrilli. justice scalia said when congress first enacted in the voting rights act in the senate there were double digit votes in opposition to it. with each reauthorization of the voti

. >> hi dale rhine hart. the one thing i wanted to mention today is the dynamic dialogue going on is their story is continually changing. whenever something comes up it moves in another direction. we don't hear the same thing each time. to jeffrey's point this is the same dog and pony show and i am tired much sitting through it today. if the embarcadero deserves a visual interest the bay is spectacular and you pay for views and that's the best one going. transportation is a issue. tell me where you guys live and we have an arena built three blocks from you. this is for more games and you have spending a billion dollars to do because you need something to hold it. something else in the city can hold the smaller events so we're looking at another design today. as jeffrey mentioned what happened here? who got to him? who does he owe to somebody? to get this through is not up front and honest. i am for the jobs. i am for the benefit it brings to the city. build it somewhere else. that's where it needs to go. the
