two other people that i want to mention is steve harris and david bonowitz those are two names that you should remember. steve helped to get this issue forward about how engineers could wrap their heads around this and david helps to put together the previous document that led to p807. this is new territory and, we are cutting really incredible new ground here. and frankly we are going to be an example for a lot of areas in the state and the country. thanks for your support. >> thank you, mr. finean and thank you for your service and we are lucky to have you on the committee and all of your hard work. >> appreciate it. >> thank you. >> next speaker? thank you. >> good morning, commissioners, aim's george obelian long time property owner and native san franciscoan and i want to pledge my support for this effort. it is something that makes me proud to live in this city. san francisco is a special place where great ideas and solutions have a chance to come forth and work and this is one of them. when we set out the policy clearly, we allow the building owners in the city to act. and that i

. >> steve harry began -- is in our florida news studio. >> it is certainly a bizarre day for venezuela-u.srelationships. venezuela has expelled a u.s. military attach shay, accusing him of espionage so in the same moment venezuela's vice-president and chavez's hand-picked successor says someone, our enemies, have infected hugo chavez with cancer help expels one u.s. attache as an enemy. he is making the implication that the washington is behind hugo chavez's cancer. we have confirmation from the defense department that an attache has been expelled. >> shepard: washington can't get bias thick things done and they think we gave him cancer in it's cross. what does this sigh about the next potential leader. >> it will be disappoint took officials in washington who monitor venezuela and hoped for a change from chavez. this is maduros first time on the stage. he is a high school graduate, one-time bus driver and he is the man chavez hand-picked to lead the nation with the largest oil reserve, and he said we're going to have a scientific commission to figure out who gave hugo chavez cancer, and i

steve? >> harris, yeah, republicans are both blaming the president and down playing the cuts as you heard it. house speaker john boehner said that spending is out of control, and that the president has kicked the can so far down the road and we're running out of road to kick the can on. he said it's unfortunate, no agreement was reached to head off the sequester cuts, but insisted there was no lack of efforts on his part. >> there's no one in this town who's tried harder to come to the president to deal with our long-term spending problems, no one. the fact is the president and senate democrats have done nothing to pass a plan, to avert this, and to deal honestly with the spending problem the country has. >> president obama is still urging republicans to work with him on a compromise, but the crisis appears to have hurt him. polls show both congress and the president are being blamed and one poll shows the president's approval rating slipping from 51% to 49%. a top white house advisor predicted today that once republicans see the actual impact of the cuts, they'll start to come around. >> ou

harris? >> steve centanni, thank you very much. former republican florida governor jeb bush opening up about growing speculation over a possible white house run in 2016. and he was speaking today on fox news sunday. governor bush says it's a little early to announce a candidacy just three months after the last election and he also downplayed concerns about the negative public opinion polls of the past bush presidency. >> i don't think there's any bush baggage at all. i'm proud of my brother, proud of his accomplishments, i love my dad, if i decide to run for president, not something in my dna that compels me, it would be that the right thing for my family and the conditions are right and i have something to offer. >> harris: he we know jeb bush flirted running for president in 2008 and 2012, but declined both seems. >> harris: tiger woods has done it and actually looking like the old tiger woods and a ramp up to the masters next month. today a little while ago he won the cadillac championship at doral. and it was tight down to the

harry reid. we'll be back with steve forbes, judd gregg and harry bernstein.regg, this ain't even politics. this is so low, i can't believe it. >> well, it's hard to explain. harry reid is a friend. i suspect it was said in the moment. without any conscious thought about what the implications of it were. and i suspect he regrets saying it. and he is a decent individual, harry reid, and certainly understands the importance of our military and the trauma that these families must be going through right now and they shouldn't be drawn into something like this. >> that's the thing. and the marine corps made it very clear. again, they had been planning this exercise for quite some time, and obviously something went wrong, tragically, seven died. but they say political posturing on the backs of dead marines. see, i think, apart from this ridiculous, horrible thing that reid said, i think tim obama has misplayed their hand. they have just misplayed their hand and it's back firing. and this one is going to resound -- you know this is going to be a several-day story. >>

in washington, steve centanni, fox news. >> harris: right now, a manhunt in texas after a district attorney and his wife were murdered at their home. they believe it's not random and that the couple was targeted. the they're saying the community at large, and are stepping up security at the courthouse, the victims the district attorney michael mcclelland and his wife cynthia. he carried a gun and being extra careful since one of his assistants was gunned down two months ago. he was shot to death in the parking lot a block from the office. authorities are not saying whether the deaths are linked or connected. and the fbi is looking into whether the killing is related to the murder of another official. you may remember tom clements, the department of corrections was killed after answering his door. authorities believe a former colorado inmate shot him. and no link has been made among any of the murders, but police, fbi agents, texas rangers are investigating. rick leventhal joins us with more on this. i'm seeing a brand new release from the sheriff's office simply informing the public about t

. >> the big store was steve stricker who was second place gave him tips on putting and tiger went on an insane run. like the tiger of old. >> harris: i got the e-mail from peter schrager, the lakers against the-- okay, kobe bryant with the lakers said it was a big deal, a big comeback. >> well, no, the lakers all season have been just

you saw what harry reid was saying today about the military. >>stevecrazy talk. >> it is not unusual. he's driving the agenda. if people are happy with the way things are going, keep everybody in there. if not, get in there and make a difference. >>steve: do you think it's helpful that prince rebus in the r.n.c. said we've got to make changes? >> of course. you need to find out how you need to improve and find out where your weaknesses are. you do it as an individual and we should do it as a party. >>steve: you were invited to the president's st. patrick's day reception last year. not this year. >> not this year. i haven't been receiving many phone calls from the president lately. >>steve: but we're calling him because he's a fox news contributor. straight ahead, the top boss at i.c.e. saying maybe it wasn't a good idea to release 2,000 illegals on to the streets. his own words ahead. cyprus is so broke, they want to claw back money from regular folks. could that happen here? could our federal steal our money? charles payne with the preview of that sca

harry reid. it's very heated. take a look. this week, john boehner said, "we should not have to move a third bill before the senate gets off their ass and begins to do something." >> steve: ooh. [ audience oohs ] oh, no, he did not. >> jimmy: pretty intense. well, in response, senate majority leader harry reid tried to take the high road and said, "i think john boehner should understand who is sitting on their posterior. we're doing our best here to pass something." [ laughter and applause ] well, boehner responded to that by saying, "oh, is someone afwaid of saying a bad word? you going to get in a little twouble with your wittle mommy?" [ laughter ] to which reid replied, "no, because i've been spending too much time with your mommy." >> steve: ooh. [ audience oohs ] to which boehner replied, "great, now i'm crying." [ laughter ] and then reid said, "yeah, what's new? come on, john, don't cry. i was just kidding." to which boehner replied, "i know, i'm just so stressed out. i mean, this whole sequester thing is just so hard." [ light laughter ] to which reid replied, "yeah, that's what your mom said. peace, loser." [ cheers and applause ] it's just -- you don't have t

steve israel. your old job. election campaign person. it wasn't up to harry reid to say let's build the policy.e country better. no, it was let's keep the campaign going and forget about policy and try to win the house. >> how is it different than what mitch mcconnell said in 2010 that "the single most important thing we want the achieve is for president obama to be a one-term president"? >> mcconnell is minority. minority leader. he is president of the entire united states. just won a second term. how many people are out of work. how long have we struggled? this is not an opportunity to keep the cap pain going. time to start governing. on our start of the aisle we look forward to this and that is why we continue to move policy to put us in the right direction. that will people get back to work. >> that is why the president has had a bipartisan group at the white house. that is why he is reaching out. you have to have a backup plan. >> nancy pelosi -- >> if republicans can continue to say we are not going to allow you to follow through on any of the campaign commitments then you need people wil

steve: john mccain is here. he's a member of the armed services committee. real pleasure. >> did you see me with the dogs there? reminds me of the old harryiend in washington, go buy a dog. >> steve: that's so true. what did you think of what mr. woodward said right there regarding madness? >> i think he's got a good point. this is all madness. i'll remind you, in the campaign, the president of the united states said in two sentences, one, sequestration won't happen. >> steve: right. >> obviously that was wrong. and two, he said that it was congress' idea. we now find out from mr. woodward that that was obviously not the case. it was not congress' idea. it was the white house's idea. so we're starting out with a credibility gap, at least in my view, that's rather serious. let me just say that these cuts are half in defense. defense is about one out of every $5. 19 that we spend, not counting medicaid and medicare and social security. so we are cutting -- make half the cuts in defense of what is 19% of the spending, and they exempted about two-thirds of the programs that like fannie mae and freddie mac, pell grants. >> steve: when you look

harry potter writes? -- rides? >> i am the chief tester. [laughter] >> it is all about people. i think steve believes the same thing. he went into nbc. it takes time to put your team together. you never get it just right. you make some changes, but i think we have got it pretty close to just write right now. when it failsief and praise when it succeeds. it is nbc. we have the same thing with the news and sports and movies. and "battle iz" ship." we had some good ones and not some good ones. that is the business. don't go so high and do not go so low. are you giving them the tools? the thing that we have found, and jeff said this, it test was not right for ge to go make pilots and hoping to find the next hit. they could be building power plants elsewhere. parts of the company were getting less capital and less investment and less attention. i'm here to help, but in the case of this company, we can give money. we told our investors we have the balance sheet to invest. we are making more pilots than we have ever made. we are making more in theme parks. we want to improve service and 1.t ready f

steve, you followed the follies. what were the highlights for you? >> well, first of all, paul, you know how for the last four years we have been urging the united states senate and harryeid to pass a budget? never mind, i kind of liked it better when he they didn't pass a budget. this was just an abomination. you mentioned the trillion dollar tax increase and then of course, you had 100 billion dollars of new stimulus spending and it really polarizes where the house republicans and where the senate democrats are. they could not be more opposite in terms of their numbers. >> paul: there were some interesting votes as part of this it that signaled some interesting political trends. for example, on the keystone pipeline, 62 senators voted, said that the president should approve it. >> yeah, that was one of my favorite ones and then there was actually two votes on the -- on one of my favorite ones, on the carbon tax, something that the environmentalists have been drooling for for years. both amendments were soundly defeated to have the carbon tax. my favorite part the sponsor of the carbon tax says, the pope wants to have a carbon tax and god and my favorite response by o

steve: he is one of four u.s. senators who will filibuster, it looks like, when harry reid brings up a gun control measure. >> erichree or four times. he said, i will filibuster anything they bring to the floor for gun control. >> gretchen: he has experience with that, by the way. >> eric: yes. >> gretchen: he should bring more than one milky way next time. >> eric: he's and use the bathroom before he starts. but his point is this: what would have changed? what would have changed the outcome at newtown had president obama's proposals gone into effect? nothing. those guns, that ammunition was bought legally. there were background checks done on adam lanza's mother when she purchased those. >> steve: what we learned yesterday when documents were filed, she embraced the fact that her son had guns, the kid had a gun safe in his bedroom and she bought him guns for his birthday. extraordinarily, given the fact that he was unstable. that changes everything. eight minutes after the top of the hour. today is good friday for christians all around the world. in jerusalem, thousands are taking part in the traditional good fri

but not problematic to the point where you can't gas up the uss harry truman to send to the persian gulf. >> steve the government is going to run out of money. so they've got to come up with this continuing resolution, the cr. the good news is, the republicans have said, and it sounds like they're going to formally introduce a bill later today -- part of what they would like to do in the new bill would be to go ahead and give the pentagon the flexibility to move some of the money around. meanwhile in the senate, the democrats are saying, you know what? we kind of like that idea. let's steal that idea, only rather than giving the pentagon flexibility, let's have some flexibility with domestic programs. >> gretchen: how about that bill that somebody was proposing that unless you actually present a budget, you don't get paid? >> brian: that's coming up. >> gretchen: who is for that? >> brian: if they don't submit the budget, the pay gets shut off. >> gretchen: let's talk about a homeowner who actually took joe biden's advice. when joe biden said this about guns. >> as i told my wife, we live in an ar

steve: he knew the line. >>brian: he even knew how to count. incredible. >>anna: 6:34. to your news headline. senate majority leader harryding duet on the democrats -- con seethe defeat on the democrats plan on assault weapons. many lawmakers and gun rights advocates plan to fight those regulations claiming provisions violate their constitutional right to bear arms. >>brian: he spent 23 years in prison for a murder he did not commit. this holocaust survivor and rabbi walking out of a prison -- walking out of prison in new york yesterday after a judge overturned his 1990 conviction for a botched robbery. it turns out there was no physical evidence against him. just flawed witness testimony. >> i said in the beginning i have nothing to do with this case. if he's interested, there will be so much paper work as you'd like to read on this case and make your own decision. >>brian: unfortunately prosecutors say justice may never be served. the only other suspect in the case is dead. >>steve: soon drug-sniffing dogs won't be able to smell marijuana due to the recent legalization of recreational pot, many state police dogs in col

harry reid. they're not going to be protesting at his office, but to marginalize the nra and second amendment supporters in this battle. >> steveouple of days ago we heard from a colorado sheriff who said, you know, any upcoming gun law, new gun laws in colorado, i'm not going to enforce them. now there is a new colorado sheriff by the name of john cook, he's pledging not to enforce any new -- this new law that was signed into law by your governor hickenlooper. >> yes, governor hickenbloomberger. there are a number of staunch second amendment supporters in law enforcement and they were very vocal before these laws were passed by the state legislature, that these would pose more of a danger not only to them, but to the law-abiding sinry here and john cook is just one who has stood up. at the same time that these sheriffs now are making these public declarations and i think daring to be prosecuted for them and i think that every law-abiding citizen here should be grateful for that. but there are a number of efforts to try and roll back this radical gun grab that is going to do more harm than good. we've got recall petitions, effo

harry carson designed it back in the '80s. coming up, don't forget kilmeade and friends, peter king, william cohen, the defense secretary, former defense secretary, and his wife, live in studio. >> steveiday afternoon late in the day, there was a document dump. the united states department of agriculture released the numbers of how many americans are on food stamps. it's the biggest number in history. in december, 47,791,996 americans had to get these cards to put food on their table. >> gretchen: some people are concerned that the fact this number continued to escalate dramatically over the last couple of years. here is fox news contributor herman cane last night. >> because the federal government has made a mess of the program by exploiting the program and exploiting those people who have learned how to abuse the program. the food stamp program, greta, is a misnomer. with two words, food and stamps. it's no longer just about helping people to get food. it helps them to get free stuff and secondly, because some bureaucrats thought that people going in and handing in stamps was a somewhat insulting, they now have given them a government credit card. i found this out today, greta, on m

steve: good luck. here's what can happen in washington, d.c. do you think we're going to get any answers from the white house? no. over on the senate side, it is controlled by democrats, and harry reid is not going to move anything forward. but senator graham says what he'll do is hold up any nominations and wreak havoc. over on the house side, frank wolf, a republican congressman from the commonwealth of virginia, says he has 60 signatures on a document to install a select committee, which will be great because then the select committee would look into what happened. john bolton, who used to be our ambassador to the united nations, says something is not right here. listen. >> i think the entire way the administration has handled the benghazi affair has been abnormal and i think it's particularly strange that the people who were there when the attack took place were not made available to congress or others interested in finding out what actually happened that day. part of the administration's problem here is that many people think they engaged in a coverup, that they made up the story about the demonstration because they didn't want to reveal that terrorist groups were prevalen
