you apparently conspired with supreme court chief justice ronald george, who certainly conspired with supreme court judges in sonoma county, to treat these common good petitions like torts and declare jon jenkel to be in litigant theory to this day, i cannot file in civil court in state of california, so i come here today to talk to this legislative body to consider an emergency resolution urging the attorney general of the state of california to file treason complaints against 15 members of the 111th congress, including dianne feinstein, all of whom voted for the use of force in october 2002, which authorized the president to use force against me or anybody he wants as he determines necessary and created a dictatorship in the white house. you are all under oath to prevent the mass murder of people without due process, which is what an undeclared war is. you are under oath to defend the fifth amendment. you are under oath to prevent unreasonable seizures without due process. supervisor chiu: thank you very much. let me ask if there are any other members of the public that wish to spea

baker as ronald reagan's chief of staff was that he had run the last two campaigns against ronald reagan. he ran georgebert walker bushs in 1980 and gerry fords in 1976. and reagan was square enough to reach other and say this is the guy. ed piece is local but this is the guy i need and he was what made him special chief of staff he mastered policy. he knew politics. he was trusted by the press and liked by the press and the hill and congress. and he was somebody who delegated very, very well. >> emanuel's style was quite different than obama. it was a contrast, not a reflection in that way and he drew a lot of attention to himself. i can't remember an example where the press knew every time he disagreed with the president on a key decision, the manhattan trial for, the terrorist trial, the timing of the health-care bill. the press knew when he disagreed with the president. i worked for two chief of staff. that wouldn't have been permissible. >> it wouldn't have been permissible. >> absolutely not this is a very high profile figure in his own right. and i believe that this new chief of staff is much mo

ronald reagan. our foreign minister was george shultz. the japanese prime minister was the father of our guest tonight. the rejuvenated the relationship, but they in turn built on a foundation laid a generation before. the treaty of mutual cooperation and securities signed in january of 1960 has been the foundation of american and japanese security ever since. but that treaty was not controversial up time. it took a strong and visionary leader to see the treaty through and it cost him in the and his premiership. the president was eisenhower. the prime minister was the grandfather of our guest today. it is perhaps little less none that in 1957, when the prime minister was negotiating the treaty, he came to washington to work on the treaty and also to play golf. as happens, this weekend, the prime minister will play golf at the very same country club. the prime minister's trip here to america has engendered a great deal of attention and many questions have been raised. but the one that is truly burning for most people in america is who is t

. >> ronald reagan was a reaction to jimmy carter. >> absolutely,. >> george bush was a reaction to bill clinton. >> yes. >> absolutely. there is no -- >>. >> rose: i done know if elections are a referendum on the past or a vision of the future. >> well, you know, charlie, to some extent they always have to be part of a vision of the future. because nobody can run for the presidency without pronouncing on some kind of larger design, some sort of vision of where they are taking the country. but essentially, i believe, what people are voting on is the past. in other words, how do these guys perform. well, you know, the democrats seem poised that to take losses in this congressional election. why? well, because people are unhappy. are they so enamoured of what the republicans are promising. they want change. they want something different from what has occurred in the immediate past. and so i think it is very much a reaction to what s gone on in the-- in washington and the hands of those who hold the power. >> rose: do you think beyond the strategy of getting those legislative victorys? >> t

proposals they're talking about, it goes back to what happened frankly during ronald reagan when we didn't balance the budget and george bush when we didn't balance the budget. we've got to be honest with the american people. i don't know how serious you can be about cutting down spending if you are still -- >> chris: senator mccaskill -- >> john cornyn is asking for $300 million in earmarks. >> chris: i can't let this go. we just heard the country had $1.3 trillion deficit in the last year. and i mean, should democrats be preaching about being serious about the deficit? >> i can't speak for all democrats. i can speak for this one who has worked as senator cornyn said with senator sessions to try to bring down spending. as a senator who doesn't earmark. they won't even pledge that they'll quit earmarking, the republicans. now how serious -- i mean independent voters need to take a hard look at that. if they won't say they'll stop earmarking in this spending problem we're facing, i just think there is a lot of politics being played, chris. >> chris: senator cornyn? >> chris, our democratic colleagues need to look in the

you could be a hollywood actor, ronald reagan, you could be a millionaire son of a president, george w. bush, and you're still not an elitist, right? obama want s onc s to put on a hat. maybe it will work for him. there is this real issue. we had david k. johnson on the show. he told me a story. he said in the beginning of the bush administration, and he talked to somebody inside the administration, and asked them, hey, what do you think is a medium income of the country? he said she answered quarter of a million dollars. and he's like, are you kidding me? the real answer, of course, at the time was about $28,000. >> about a tenth of that. >> right. >> that's an elitist, right? that'ser real. people exist, people who think that way. >> look at palin. she does play this card. sarah palin is very rich now. she's making multi-million dollars a year. she has a life that's totally disconnected from the way ordinary people live. but she continues to sort of play this card. and i do think it means less and less. it really is just an expression of sort of open-ended political anger. but it d

george w. bush was polarizing. bill clinton was polarizing ronald reagan was polarizing.hat is it about the last 30 years of american politics and popular culture that has produced the result? you have to believe that the media, including the internet, played a significant role in that. >> if you have asked me a president we would like to see right now, i would say to my eisenhower. i think that we need somebody who has a kind of stature. i caddis thatcher of being a supreme commander. -- ike had a stature of being a supreme commander. eisenhower build the interstate highway system and the seaway and put a lot of this infrastructure in the country. we need somebody that focuses on that. it is not just -- it seems that we are tormenting ourselves too much in this country and not finding a way to unify. i wrapped in a pianist -- iraq and afghanistan could of been a unifier. some people think that iraq was a terrible mistake. >> i have an aberration for dwight eisenhower. but white eisenhower was a product of the time. so center had to write a book. there was a consensus bei

back to ronald reagan, five presidents have found it politically expedient and economically wise to defer to wall street. one of my favorite characters in my story is paul o'neill, who was georgebush's first treasury secretary. he left washington under a cloud. people made fun of him because he was not robert rubin. he was extremely wary of wall street'. wall street continues to have the whip hand over the way we look at the economy and the way ceo's see their compensation packages, employee welfare. is all dictated by wall street, and frankly, after two years of this crisis with this giant new law that was passed last summer, we have not seen very much restructuring. tavis: earlier in the conversation you suggested that the phrase wise men was a bit tongue in cheek. i asked whether the notion that our future has been turned over to wall street, whether that is tongue-in-cheek or whether that is real. >> sadly, i think it is real. it is not like there are good things in good people involved in this picture. -- not like there are not good things and good people involved in this picture. harvard law professor is going to set up this consumer protection bureau. someone described

ronald reagan. then things started to change, you had bill clinton munching down at mcdonald's, and george bush in aama chowing down on fast food, hitting the local diners, mingling with the peeps. democratic senate candidate christine o'donnell says she's one of you, but she's not the only politician saying that. a lot of them are saying that. but 18 days before the midterm elections, we thought we'd find out whether voters are buying into the just like you think thing. carol costello is with us. >> it's become cliche. how many politicians have you heard say, i'm just like you. i understand your pain? how many have you heard say that? >> probably almost every single one of them. and that's what they're feeding off the voter anger. hey, i get you. i understand you. i'm anti-washington, anti-elight establishment. that's what people want to hear in a bad economy and when they can't find a job. >> you've hit on something and it does seem every politician is fighting for the i'm just like you crown because of the anger. so, it must work, right? we wondered. so, does it work? do you want a politician in

george w. bush and he had approval ratings in the 20's. when you're looking at the gallup poll you cited, 45% it's better than the two most successful presidents of our generation, ronald this point in the presidency. >> yeah, but george w. bush, you mentioned george w. bush, at his point in the presidency he had an approval rating of 65%. >> that's true. just after september 11th and we know it was down in the 20's before he left office. look, we're in a tough economy right now. everybody knows it. republican party is determined to keep us in that tough economy. that's why they're voting to move jobs overseas and voting against small businesses, voting against tax cuts! who ever knew the republicans were against tax cuts. they vote against middle-class tax cuts, they're trying to destroy the economy to take obama down the way rush limbaugh wants them to fail and you know what -- >> all those democrats that the president has, what are they doing? all them are running away from them. i was in philadelphia. none of them were on the stage with him on sunday. none of them wanted to be there on the stage with him. >> michael, what about the fact that the president and his m

country in 1980 with ronald r reagan they cam back and voted in the midterms and came back to re-elect reagan and then bush senior and lost eight years and then came back twice with georgeservative trickled down theory of body of politic, and they kept voting. we cannot vote one time and think that we are going to undo 22 years of a conservative right-wing move that would make those that want to see social justice and economic rights for middle-class working-class and poor people and turn this tide around. i think that when you lay that out, and i have spoken in the last ten days that morehouse college, and howard university and columbia, that young voters and people have to get out to vote not one time in 2008 and undo the reagan and bush years. >> reverend al sharpton, always good to see you, and thank you for coming on. safe travels. that is going to do it for jansing & company this weekend. norah o'donnell will pick up the coverage next. let's grow some " and that's what started it. exxonmobil and synthetic genomics have built a new facility to identify the most productive strains of algae. algae are amazing little critters. they secrete oil, which we could turn int

george bush in an area that i was surprised in terms of his intellect. >> you know, i remember the people back in the 1980s used to say, particularly from my side, politics, ronalditiatives and former white house speech writer and policy advisor to president bush. they're co-authors of "city of man," religion and politics in a new era. thank you for being on the show this morning. >> let me begin with you. you talk in this book a bit about how the religious right got it wrong. explain. >> this has engaged in the last 30 years. the apocalyptic tone of the religious right. we wanted to learn the lessons going forward in the new era. i love the guy like tim keller. i go to his church. he might be the face of the evangelical movement. a guy a bit more moderate in temperament and have a bit more expansive world view. right, tim is a voice, a reasonable person, he's a person that understands in a very profound way what the relationship between politics and faith ought to be. he's a much more tempered voice. he's not political. i don't think people who are professing christians and involve in church activities should be. we argue in the end, that's bad for both faith a
