[ applause ] >> shannon: thank you, sir. governor johnson, most republicans and everyone else on this stage, but you, identify themselves as pro-life. you have said abortion should be legal until the fetus is viable. how do you hope to woo conservative gop voters in south carolina and across the country with that position? >> i support a woman's right to choose up to the viability of the fetus. as governor i would have signed the bill banning late

i want to inform you, sir. i speak so many languages. but never in any country, i look had the government. it is totally a human. i am opposing this in your thinking. >> i drive a yellow cab for 10 years. before became a citizen, i never had access to good education. or what they called a good job. that is my job. it is my life. my wife and my two daughters. if you want to interfere with our jobs and our lives, please do with in a positive way. give us health insurance. give us a pension. please stop making our lives more miserable. stop the 5%. look at the gas prices. how can we survive? >> these were given to us at outside. i would like you to get in touch with in this.

yes, sir? >> why suspect there any -- [inaudible] >> that's a good question, and that's a question everybody asks. i would -- i would say last week's "rolling stone" had a wonderful article who asked the very same questions. why? because wall street contributes a great deal to both parties, and mob wants to bite the hand that feeds them. the justice department, however, did make a kind of a show in that it went out and rounded up about 32 little crooks for a total of $8 billion, total, out of these little guys, and made a big to-do about it, but that's nothing. we are talking about maybe trillions of dollars scammed and continually scammed every day from up vesters, but congress won't touch them. they have already -- wall street has already learned how to overturn the dodd-frank regulations and working around it very clever ri, so that's one of the reasons. keep that in mind when you go to the voting booth. they love you. they love you until they got your money. anybody else got any questions?

>> no, sir. senator, we've now reached the retirement rate is literally half of what it was three years ago. we're down to a steady state. any corporation, any business with a -- that's been in business long enough gets to the point where you've got retirements that five, six, seven percent per year, that's where we should be. and we can train to that. but we were overburdened. there's no question. we were training the twice that many of controllers for three straight years that put a huge burden. we have a finite number of training facilities. when you put 30 and 40% trainees into a facility, who trains them? the other controllers train them. so it's a big burden on everyone. but we are now getting down. we're very comfortable in the 20 to 25% range and that's where we are today. >> i appreciate the collaboration both of you are going to work on. and again, i just wish that all those things you said, the rest of them don't all crom true as well. let me just, administrator, come a little out of l

>> do what, sir? >> what are the injuries that you suffered? >> doctors said i had a cracked humorous in my shoulder, like a fracture. i got scrapes on my legs, bruises. bruises and dings and bangs. nothing severe i guess. >> tell me, just talk me through what was going through your mind as this tornado came towards you. >> it came toward me. i pulled my truck over. i was getting ready to get in the ditch. that's what i've always been taught to do. i looked up. look like the tornado kind of disappeared. i got back in the truck. tried to get my seat belt buckled. closed my eyes. put my arms over my face. not real sure if i blacked out. i know that -- i was laying on the ground. picked myself up. looked over. the truck was on its wheels. i ran around to see -- i guess kind of sort of assess the damage. >> i've been watching the pictures again. it's absolutely extraordinary you survived this. as the tornado hit the truck, did you think you were going to die? how were you feeling at that moment? >> i beli

>> i did, yes, sir. and i... i still believe that the decision i made was a professional decision. >> bergman: many people say, because of this incident, things have changed. >> well, it's directly attributed to this situation, there's no doubt about that. >> bergman: have the qualifications changed for being a coroner? >> you know, i really can't speak to that, because i've kind of been grandfathered in. >> bergman: today, coroners in south carolina have limited access to a refrigeration unit. and there is a new requirement to be a coroner-- you have to have a high school diploma. >> the major problem in this country is the coroner system, in that, essentially, what you're doing is electing somebody with no experience, and it's absurd. how often do you think people go to the polls and say, "i'm going to vote for mr. jones because he's a good coroner"? in some communities, you could run a dead man for coroner, and he'd get elected if he was on the right ticket. >> bergman: i first encountered an elected coroner n

>> yes, sir. >> sir? >> sir, think there has been a lot of work for several years on multiple different types of data breach legislation introduced in all different types of committees and i believe the administration is real close to presenting to congress a pack than that was worked on by multiple executive agencies. >> thank you. little more friendly question this time, sir? >> yes. >> sir? >> yes. >>. gentlemen, this is always a question we run into. further in the light 6 federal fiscal constraints should states attorney generals be allowed to enforce federal security requirements. yes or no? >> yes. >> sir? >> could you repeat the question? >> should federal fiscal restraints be able to be enforced by state attorneys general? >> i'm not sure, i'm not sure if i'm qualified to answer that. >> i will not press you on that. sir? >> i'm not sure if i'm qualified to answer that but i think so. >> sir? >> absolutely. . . >> that keep pace with technical advancements in threats to data security? yes or no?

yes, sir? >> did you ever get accused of being overqualified for these jobs?

[laughter] but it's not. it's very complex. the thing i like to tell myself is i didn't ge

yes, sir? >> what do you think was your biggest single event that created the turning point where you get your money back from the investment companies? >> i think the turning point came when we went political essentially. we started to let state attorneys general noah around election time that we were going to start grass-roots movements, hunger strikes and all that sort of thing if they didn't take action because the state attorneys general of the pivot points. those are guys like elliot spitzer and so on who get out and take these guys to task. former attorney general cuomo did wonderful job for presidents of new york state and our state and so on helping us get our money back because he was up for elections so he put pressure on him that way. .. >> that's the first question. second question is your thoughts on the consumer protection agencies and recent regulations. do you think that has us headed in the right direction to protect consumers from wall street? >> thank you. those are very goo

commissioner fung: sir, you referenced a letter from the united states marine club? i don't have it. i got out of the other commissioners have it, but i don't have that letter. >> he is very busy and i told him what happened. he told me he would send a letter. that is what happened. most of my customers are from the nine states marine club. vice president garcia: what do you sell? >> liquor, wine, tobacco, juice. vice president garcia: what percentage of sales from tobacco? >> maybe 10%, 15%. it is not much, but i am worried if i don't sell tobacco, the other stuff may go down. vice president garcia: did you all for the department of public health when you had the hearing, did you have anything to offer us? i know, how do you prove and negative, but to demonstrate that this gentleman that he absolutely does not work for you? the you have an econo employee records, anything that would -- do you have any kind of employee records, anything that would show he does not work for you? thank you. commissioner hwang: excuse me, i have a question. what you have to shut down th

but you have to be specific, sir.wer. >> i'm giving you a date. >> no, sir, you're badgering me. you're trying to get me upset, sir. >> sunny hostin, let's just set it up. who is he talking to? and do you think he was being badgered? >> well, this is george anthony being cross-examined by hose baez. no, i don't think he was being badgered. obviously he has never sat in a witness chair and been cross-examined by someone who cross-examinations the way i used to cross examined witnesses i'm accusing of sexual abuse. i thought this sort of cross-examination actually played pretty well for the defense, because the defense here, brooke, is claiming that casey anthony behaved the way she did because she had been repeatedly sexual abused by george anthony. so he needs to look like an angry guy, someone that needs to be in control. and i think he showed that side of him today. >> what about, and again live pictures we're looking at casey anthony sitting in the courtroom yet again. she is not crying here. we know she was in tea

how far would you go in legalizing drugs, sir? >> first of all, i would hope that people, we it comes to the drug issue looking at me would look at what i did as governor. which was everything was a cost-benefit analysis. using that as a criteria, half of what we spend on law enforcement, the courts and the prisons, is drug-related. to what end? we are arresting 1.8 million people a year in this country. we have 2.3 million people behind bars in this country. the highest incarceration rate of any country in the world. i would ask people to look at this issue. see if they don't come to the same conclusion that i did. 90% of the drug problem is prohibition-related, not use-related. not to discount the problems with use and abuse. that ought to be the focus. i advocate legalizing marijuana. control it, regulate it, tax it. it will never be legal for kids to smoke or buy pot. it will never be legal to smoke pot or do harm to others. when it comes to all otheró4rt drugs i advocate harm reduction strategies which is looking at the drug

[cheers and applause] when i announced colbert pac on the air my parent company viacom freaked because legally it is illegal. corporations cannot donate to pacs and they say using my show to talk about a pc is a donation. i did the right thing and exploited a loophole. thanks to the scowrt citizens united ruling corporations that can't give any money to a pac can give unlimited nona superpac. there's a distension between a pac and a superpac. one has the word superin its name. i took colbert pac and i made it colbert superpac. pac, superpac. clark kent, superman. bruce

>> well, sir, back to the 2011 budget. i have to thank this committee for restoring money in the 2011 budget. we were facing rather drastic cuts in there, including maritime safety and security teams and cutters. that's a quick way to get savings but cuts back on the front line operations. as we went into the 2012 budget cycle, my first budget preparation to go forward, my guiding principle was we will sustain our front line operations. i don't want to lose any coast guard people or resources that deliver services to the american people. we looked at administrative overhead. some fat to caverve away. we didn't find much. most of sit operation nat nal support reductions. travel, things we would like to be doing because it helps us keep a healthy work force. but the alternative is to cut back operations or aircraft and ships and i just don't want to do that. >> we have had a lot of interest re in strengthening border patrol regarding illegal immigration. there have been some successes at a cost. as we strength our border sec

yes, sir? >> was there any organized support in the colonies, any of them, which were called loyalists? >> organized support for? >> for what you might call loyalists supporting -- >> oh, yes, across the nation. at least one-third of the population were absolutely loyal subjects of britain, and in the debate over independence in the continental congress, only days before the actual declaration of independence, john dickinson of philadelphia authored the olive branch petition to the king pledging our loyalty, american loyalty to the king, love of the king, love of being british subjects and simply asking for him to control the parliament and to let us raise our own taxes and keep parliament our business. had he accepted the olive branch petition, we probably would have become a member of the british commonwealth. there was tremendous amount of loyalty and even loyalists forces. there was a major battle that's often not mentioned, i don't know whether this is prejudice or what, but a major battle

good morning to you, sir. thank you for joining us. >> pleased to be here. >> first up, where were you and what was your reaction when you heard the news about osama bin laden? >> well, first, it was surprise. i mean, i had to readjust my radio because i could hardly believe it. but my -- then my reaction was relief. i was relieved that the person who wanted to cause so much harm to so many people were now off the scene. this individual who was perhaps the foremost responsible for making people soeshtd islam and terrorism in the world off the scene. this person who confused people and distracted, misled them, and tried to bring them into his evil philosophy off the scene. so my reaction was relief. >> i'm curious, if your reaction reflects the greater muslim-american community as well in this country. i want to read one statement which read, he more than anyone else in human history with his twisted version of islam made it feared and depiesed upon millions upon millions of people who had never known about it

yes, sir. [inaudible] >> a comparison between antebellum washington versus washington of the civil war era. >> sure. on what kind of terms would you like me to compare it? >> the black population, where they were and at that time as opposed to that -- [inaudible] >> sure. well, the citigroup and the black population tripled and the government needed to performed all these functions it had never performed before. and so all kinds of new clerks and sort of government attaches are moving into the capitol during the civil war just as lots and lots of footage tives of slavery are coming in too and the capitol is growing by leaps and bounds in terms of population. washington -- the kind of stereotype of washington before the war was that it was a slippery back-water -- it's true that many of the kind of main street -- very few of the main streets were in any way paved. pennsylvania avenue is one of the few streets that had any kind of pavement or finishing on it and so people complained about the duc

. >> ok, so we will hear now from you, sir. >> good evening, commissioners. i on the house on jones street, single-family home downtown -- i own a house on jones street, single-family home downtown. we have been there since 1997. i have been having a tough time with tenants in the area. the house was completely remodeled in 1995 by the previous owners. anytime tenants move out, we paint it, clean up the kitchens and bathrooms, so one, so forth. this last time, in january, when my tenant moved out, we found problems. when we started cleaning up and doing the touch, we realized the house was in disrepair. the tile was falling off, the kitchen counters were falling apart. commissioner fung: sir, you realize that the maximum we can reduce the penalty is up to two times, and the building department has agreed to that, sir. >> ok, just like to explain myself. if i knew now what i know now, i would have obtained a permit. that was an honest mistake. i was not trying to pull a fast one. i was just trying to explain. president goh: thank you. >> is there any public co

. >> what are we looking at, sir? >> i think you will like sunday.d of cleaning up a little bit. >> let's start with the radar because we do have a couple of showers on the radar. couple thunderstorms too. some rather intense. marching across loudoun county, across the river into montgomery county. had some hail up near 97. also lightening with these storms. then another trailing storm that will roll into southern frederick county as well in the next 20 minutes or so. that's the big picture. we will kind of zoom in now on doppler. we will start with the storms that are now exiting montgomery county and also exiting frederick county and moving across 70. but this is hail. just across 97. georgia avenue way past sunshine. that is indeed hail. still some pretty good rains back. now, go back to the south and west because there is a trailing storm. this is a pretty good storm right here that also is moving off to the northeast. we will put this into motion. where is it going to go in the next hour? it weakens a little bit and just kind of rolls into pools

yes, sir. >> my question is not about statistics, it is about people and the movement. [inaudible] i have just read "the fiery trial." he states that when lincoln got to washington as a congressman in 1847 that the city's black population were about 70% free, 30% slave. you stated that in 1860 the city was about 60% free. okay, i know the census is no good and that statistics lie. so my question is, who was moving in to washington in the 1850s among the black population? we know about the civil war theories in which there's an explosion of the population, white and black, but is there some sensible way to describe this apparent contradiction of the statistics there? >> who is moving into washington in the 1850s in terms of the african-american population? and -- >> moving out. >> or moving out. >> right. >> what's the -- can we offer any explanation to that discrepancy? >> um, i think there might be, i think there might be a discrepancy this those numbers that actually doesn't exist, and so i'm not quite sure which one it is. actually, the proportion of enslaved black w

sir? >> yeah. i'm a retired high school teacher, retired in 2001, and i've been taking classes since 2001. it's a predominantly latino campus, i would say 90%, and i've been appalled. there's a saying in the history, the more things change, the more they remain the same. and i've been absolutely appalled at the conditions on the campus vis-a-vis teaching quality, administrative quality. i'm sure you read, hector, the times' series on the ripoffs in the rebuilding of the schools, mission had a vice president who was sending a lot of money to her own company. anyhow, to me it's basic racism. the latino kids are getting screwed at that college big time. and i would like to know your thoughts on this. the more things change, the more they remain the same, sal. i don't see any difference between now at mission college and what you went through at lincoln high school in the 19 1960s. so i'd like the panel to respond to this. what the hell's going on in this city? >> you want me to take a shot at it? >> d
