. >> reporter: steven paul is getting calls from concerned customers asking about longer term rate locks but they can be expensive. >> the cost of doing a loan lock up to nine months, runs 2.5 points and a lock for three months is .5, so people are trying to judge on whether they want to invest in the loan lock. >> reporter: california analysts mark hanson says roughly 70% of may sales for the builders are suspect. he points to the numbers, of the sales contracts signed in may 31% were for completed homes so buyers would have locked in mortgage rates near record lows, no problem. 24% were for homes under construction so some locked in a rate if the home was almost done, but some did not and 36% of the sales contracts signed in may were for homes that were not yet started. those buyers in most cases did not lock in rates and are already facing sticker shock at today's level. that could mean cancellations. >> it will be depending on the type of home builder that you're looking at. if you're looking at the coal brothers, a luxury builder, those customers can afford a rate rise and still be

you were talking about how supreme court justice john paul stevens said "no one is born a supreme court justice, they simply become one." in the interview you said you haven't become one yet. through all of your challenges in our life and your obvious position now, why did you say that? >> is a fair question. what i meant it is you grow in every position you are in. every day of your life you should spend trying to learn something new. i walked into a job at the justice on day one and i had been a judge for 17 years. being a justice is something new. it is a different sort of judging. it is the same on a lot of issues. the questions are much bigger. and there are questions that do not have clear answers. when cases come to the supreme court is because generally there is a conflict in the courts below. different justices of looking at the same question and they are coming to different answers. by definition as it comes to the supreme court it becomes clear. -- it is unclear. if the precedents are not so clear and it is unclear then we have to do something else. we have to establish the f

we strongly recommended the individuals to be appointed peter for seat 2 and seat 3 steven seat 57 brad paul and seat 7 julian dash and seat 9 jeff and seat 10 or leveling jerold banks and we're speaking on behalf of these as being stakeholders they'll come to the community and done a large number even if things. i appreciate all the folks who have applied but some of them don't come to the hearing to be appointed because if they're not here for this meeting how will they make the meetings. any other public comments >> seeing none, public comments are now closed. you know what i'd like to do is this impacts supervisor kim's district and i'd like to hear our thoughts. there have so many qualified people that have come to us today >> i would like to make some recommendations to the rules committee and i don't envy you guys for it's amazing how much people want to serve our city and want to be engaged. i am lucky i represent an amazing district. i want to make the following recommendations for seat 2 peter and for seat 3 steve. steve has been at his job thirty years and they really impact the s

and justice john paul stevens has completely rentinged the idea that there is a moral and constitutional action and slavery and segregation. >> not only did he make that statement, since you talk about the past, clarence thomas in the past has said things about affirmative action. in 1983, when he was the chairman of equal employment opportunity commission, in a speech to his staff, clarence thomas said that the laws of affirmative action were of, quote, paramount importance to him. but for them, god only knows where i would be today. these laws and the proper application are all that stand between the first 17 years of my life and the second 17 years. here is a man who benefitted from affirmative action, praised it, said how it changed his life, and now he is comparing it to slave holders and segregationists. >> no doubt about it. and what is so striking about justice thomas's evolution on segregation, but he has never denied. in his recent judicial opinions he said it wasn't worth it because i was stigmatized. people can't tell whether i did it on my own or not. >> i think affirmative

think about the last three justices to leave the court, sandra day o'connor, david souter, john paul stevens sometimes voted with the liberals, sometimes with the conservatives. they're all gone. we have a court where there are five republicans and four democrats and eight of the nine vote predictably along those lines most of the time. >> the cht justice voted to uphold obama care and justice kennedy voted to do away with the defense of marriage act. >> eight of the nine i said. justice kennedy is certainly the one who changes -- who is -- >> you don't include the chief justice you don't include in that potential swing vote? >> i don't and i got to be honest with you, wolf, i am still baffled and amazed that chief roberts voted the way he did in the health care case. i don't understand it. it is completely out of character for him but he did and, you know, that's why we listened to the opinions. we can't predict them all all the time. >> jeffrey is never going to get over that. >> but, gloria, as far as the criticism from the right, for example, and newt gingrich and others say the court is

. >> paul: how would it affect the administration and united states influence abroad. joining the panel, dan henninger, brett stevens and kim strassel. so the president says it's 29-year-old hacker. i shouldn't scramble the jets as he put it. >> the head of the national security agency says snowden has irreparable damage to americans. >> paul: others have, too. >> i would trust general alexander. he knows what secrets he had in his possession and secrets the chinese in hong kong or russians at the airport in moscow could easily have downloaded. >> paul: he certainly downloaded? >> this is what they do for a living. we would like to borrow your computer for a brief inspection. we'll give it back to you tomorrow. that kind of thing. this is major breach of american security whether snowden meant to hand over these documents, russians and chinese now have access to the national security agency in a way they didn't have before. terrorists can begin to understand already how it is that we look at patterns of communication to see how they may or may not be seeking. so for the president to say no big deal a big deal. >> pa

and steve king and dana war backer and bill keating and paul cook went to russia to investigate the boston bombing suspects from chechnya with stevengal. he wore those wacky glasses. the members said he set up a bunch of meetings for them with the fsb. that's what the kgb became. they wanted to go to chechnya itself. segal wanted to meet the president of chechnya who is accused of kidnapping, torture and of his opponents. somewhere between that and accepting a free flight on the plane to go g to chechnya, that fell through. house republicans decided their contribution to american's foreign policy responsibilities would be to introduce legislation banning president obama from closing the prison in guantanamo. the republicans ban is folded into the bill funding the whole defense department that includes hundreds of millions of dollars to keep guantanamo going and to shore it up for years to come. the huge funding bill for the pentagon gets a vote this week and the republicans will make the president veto all funding for the entire u.s. military if he wants to try to close guantanamo. there is a lot going on in the world right now. tu
