people talk differently in south carolina than they do in iowa. programs are tailored differently.are wonderful, what the state humanities councils do. for example, they will have programs in literature, programs in history in which they reach out to the smallest towns in the state. we have a program in oregon that is called "think and drink." we have programs that are in barbershops. it is really a fabulous out reach under the assumption -- this is a bit of an exaggeration. it is not good enough to have a month commentating in a cave if no one can hear the thoughts. somehow, you have to get a public engaged in such a way that the great books of our time and the great thoughts of our time can be translated in a public venue. that is what the council's do and they do it extremely well. having said that, every state council i know of is looking at a smaller budget than last year. they also receive some private funds, as well as the received about half their resources from the national office. so there is pressure out there. >> american museums have a very complicated relationship wit

some came from as far away as south carolina to compete. gets a key to this city of des moines and date will crown and a cape. what is a bulldog going to do with keys to a city? >> wow. the clouds are picking up. we will call it filtered sunshine. the upper 60's. warmer tonight. the clouds will be picking up even more. some light showers tomorrow. clearing out for the back half of the week. >>>

two south carolina senators got into a verbal tussle. one of them punched his colleague in the mouth. well, then the tears fell over and a desk got knocked over and people were flying all over the chamber. the senate recommended both members, censored them, got them to apologize. but today apologized in such a sarcastic manner that the senate said, all right, we are going to we are going to pass it this rule. today it is known as rule 19. they should have passed it at the time of the summer caning. a finely pastorate -- and they finally passed it, and it says that a senator shall not speak ill of a fellow senator. if he does or she does, it will be required to sit down. they will be considered out of order. that was a huge step forward in helping to read-define re- define the norms of civility in of the senate chamber. >> what are the foundations and support of civility in the united states senate? of civility in the united states senator? >> one of the major foundations was it is a small body, and you quickly get to know your fellow sen

lindy graham, senator from south carolina, has said moving too fast on immigration will ruin any efforts to work with graham on climate change bills. so the politics of this are very exciting and unpredictable. >> glor: meanwhile, let's go back to these goldman e-mails for a second if we can. we know the senate begins debate on financial reform this coming week. how do these e-mails affect that debate? >> well, they help the white house. the white house has been trying to say republicans are in the pocket of wall street to the extent that these e-mails make goldman actions and wall street look bad, that puts pressure on republicans. but democratic leaders in the senate say they don't have the 60 votes they need. what's keeping republicans held together on this is that they think while wall street is unpopular, that government is also quite unpopular so the notion that government is here to help you is not necessarily a winning argument in this case. >> glor: john dickerson joining us, as always, from washington. john, thank you. >> reporter: thanks, jeff. >> glor: still ahead on tonight'

host: south carolina, republican line, you are the first phone call. caller: good morning. actually, this is south dakota. i am a tea party member. we're not out there to compete with the democrats or republicans. we are made up of both parties. we are here to inform people of what is going on as far as bureaucrats and usage, and people making a mockery out of our government. my question is, you have enough bureaucrats, and you cannot really blame the media for trying to get the money out of politics because that is what is all about, and it is a money game -- and so, what is your idea as far as getting the public informed on real issues? host: what do mean by that? could you give an example? caller: let's go to my own congressman. stephanie lives in texas with her husband. she does not even live in south dakota. she has introduced bills for texas. yet the people are not even informed. they're out there raising money for her because she has her blog. she has a south dakota city address. host: i do know what you're getting at here. maybe we should talk about a the dailycaller

and even though he is from across the border, we love him, congressman john separate of south carolina. -- spratt. [applause] so it is good be here at your company and good to be back in north carolina. we just concluded our tour where we saw some of the workings of this facility where your manufacturing components for the state-of-the-art batteries. you are building separators to make sure diometrically opposed forces can work successfully together, and i couldn't help but think we could use your help in congress. [applause] we could get one of those tri-part films and put it between the democrats and the republicans. it would improve conductivity. right? did i get that right? ok. the truth is, these are been a tough two years for north carolina and they have been a tough two years for the urks. -- united states states of america. we have been through the wofert turmoil since the great depression. when i first took the oath of office we were already moving toward what some thought was a great depression. we were losing 8,000 jobs a month. the economy was contracting that first quarter

the latest reported twister struck last night in darlington, south carolina. a school and mobile homes were damaged. three people were injured. over the weekend, tornadoes were reported in seven states, at least 12 people were killed. two in alabama and ten in mississippi, where yazoo city was crippled by an enormous tornado. don teague has more. >> reporter: there are parts of this town that like the roof of francine cox's house are simply gone. >> i don't know how to put it into words, you know. it's just gone. that's all i can say. >> reporter: at least 340 homes and businesses across mississippi are no longer recognizable. twisted -- >> it hurts all the way through. >> reporter: -- thrashed, or swept away by a massive, fast moving twister that left ten people dead and more than three dozen injured. it's the second time this church has been destroyed. the first time by an arsonist. but what's amazing isn't what's gone, but what, or who, is still here. dale thrasher was alone in the church when the storm hit. he hid under the communion table. >> i asked the

. >> matt: playing here tonight obviously, and tomorrow playing in clemson, south carolina. 6-30 the start time -- 6:30 the start time for that one if you are fortunate enough to have a ticket. here is 3-2 pitch. earls with 4 strikeouts now. and david perno with a great high school football player for the legendary billy henderson, won a state championship. >> matt: nester at the plate. wall called on nester, 1-2 in this ball game. batted twice in the 2nd inning. finished it with a called strikeout. 1-0 to nester. and after the fastball, foul, 1-1. nester parker t only two right handers in the line up. clearly earls is a lefty. he has had a lot more success than swegman did. curve ball outside. didn't have the bite. 2-1. this is -- we talked about the 217th meeting of these teams. this is the 120th time that they met here in athens. georgia leads the series overall and here in the classic city, as well. 69-40. things not going their way here tonight. 2-1 pitch to nester. whipped into left field for a base hit. >> jeff: nester did a good job in 9 hole. really gives you an extra table.

. >> you talk about your service on the public service commission in south carolina. could you speak a little bit more about the difference between serving on the state level and the federal level, and what you have experience so far? >> the state level is closer to the people that we serve. there were front and center. we had evidentiary hearings. that is the biggest difference. when we had an issue or a rate hearing, we had an actual hearing where we took witnesses, including public witnesses. you gotta feel right then and there about what people were feeling, what direction they wanted you to go, how they were convincing. it was not just filing paper. sometimes it can be a little cold and exacting. we got to hear from the public, and that was the major difference of how the two agencies interacted. that was a culture shock for me, to be honest. >> do you feel a little isolated as an fcc commissioner? >> at first i did feel like i was on an island. it was definitely an adjustment for me. but it is ok. one of the things -- one of the ways we distinguish ourselves, we

host: spring lake, south carolina, barry, a democrat. caller: i am a little disappointed from obama. whenever he gets elected he runs on one platform and then it seems to be he totally backed up and went into a whole nother direction. i wonder if there are other forces at work that are sitting there pressuring him into doing things he doesn't want to do, because he is doing just everything opposite from what he was going to do to start with. guest: i think he is looking at the big picture. i think he is looking at all the energy american needs. i think he is looking at how long it will take us to replace different types of technology we use. a lot of folks would love it if we could run all of our b nichols on solar, but we can't. we can't get there overnight. we have opportunities available to us that will bring real jobs, opportunities for america. i have to think he is looking at the broad picture and doing what he can. and we have to look at -- the glass is half full, and move forward to bring the jobs and revenue here. the energy we

. >> we talked about it in the southeast, in charleston, south carolina. to be focusing on the fault zone in the mid southern u.s. which has repeatedly produced a major quake. up to a 40% chance that another big one could occur in the next 50 years. when the last big ones hit in 1811 and 1812, the area was sparsely populated. today, a major quake to have a global economic impact. >> this part of the area around here was downdropped during the earthquake. it actually sank. part of the river was affected by the change in local elevation. >> gee olgist, phillies steckel tells how an earthquake forced the mississippi to flow backwards and create real foot lake. she is worried about the moves here again it will have catastrophic impacts. >> a lot of what we come to expect in 21st century society. a lot of it comes through this area. >> reporter: memphis, tennessee, 100 miles to the south. you know it as the home of the blues and barbecue. steckel knows it as america's distribution center and the most vulnerable city on the fault. >> a lot of shipping goes up an

off the coast of virginia and south carolina, there is no oil field on shore there. why do you think they're going to be oil field offshore? >> so why bother? the governor of virginia loves the idea, thinking jobs. so virginia's two democratic senators did maryland's two democratic senators do not like it. >> we know that there is a time, saudi arabia of oil in alaska, largely untouched anwr remains shut. if we started in 1996 when clinton shut it down, we would have 1 million barrels a day, 5% of our entire consumption, 10% of our imports. the oil is in the west, and that is why it is so odd. >> it is interesting that the oil and gas industry actually seemed pleased by this. of course they would like more, but they are pleased by this, while the republican leadership in congress is sort of pooh- poohing it. i think there is a lot of stuff in this proposal that has not gotten much attention. they are talking about opening up some solar stuff in the desert that would be the equivalent of 30 cold-fired -- colt-fired utility plants, electricity plants. this is a very bi
