with the admiral and that we all understand the collaboration, the talent, the indication to the critical missions by all of these brave men and women. german foreign very mentioned earlier that the bin laden mission gives a window into the modernization of our special forces. more americans now know and appreciate the incredible dedication of the special forces like the navy seal, and indeed all of our brave men and women in uniform. also like to recognize members of this committee over the past few years have guided the policy shift towards special operations and asymmetrical warfare in order to address the unconventional threats to the national security. the elimination of osama bin laden represents a milestone victory and my amendment simply expresses the gratitude of this congress for the work of or special forces and for their outstanding service and the successful historic mission. i urge approval of the and what amendment. >> the gentlelady yields back. is there further debate on the amendment? mr. griffin from arkansas is recognized. >> thank you, mr. chairman. with regard to ame

the rest of the world while the same time addressing the deficit. many countries are moving aggressively to lead in to clean energy. we must rev up the great american innovation machine to create jobs and win this clean energy race. to that end, president obama called for an increase investment and clean energy research, development and deployment. in addition his proposed a bold but achievable goal generating 80% of electricity from clean sources by 2035. the department of energy fy 12 budget request of 29.5 billion supports the goals and strengthens the nation's economy and security. we recognize families are feeling the effect of high gas prices right now and while there are no silver bullets to the challenge president obama is committed to breaking dependence on foreign oil field in easing the burden on families. it helps reduce reliance on oil but it's a loving her next generation of biofuels, and excluding electric vehicle research to the deployment. and energy efficiency programs we will save money for consumers by saving energy. in addition

of the amount of the state stands to the christians in the base for the students at the top end of that range 50%. this is enough money to enroll a child as far as i know in any elementary or middle school and that we are aware of, and a significant part of the cost of a high school. there are a couple of parts of this that are worth noting. three bullets of on the bottom. as the bill was finally crushed the, the public schools will get their shot at every job. it is to say the family will only be eligible if the child spend at least two semesters in a public-school. you may agree or disagree with this, but i think it's a worthy inclusion into this piece of legislation. in other words, the public school, if the public school delivers and succeeds, no one will see seek to exercise this trace. but neither will be we incarcerate anyone in a school they don't believe is working having tried it at least one full year. this package of bills we believe, we see as a mutually reinforcing whole. if one or more had failed we would obviously have been happy about the ones that made it but we think

tepco is still analyzing the data to assess the impact of the failure on the fuel rods. tepco says dozens of power generating trucks brought to the fukushima plant just after the disaster mostly proved useless. about 70 generator trucks headed to the plant after the quake knocked out external power and a tsunami disabled backup generators. the trucks came from tepco, the self defense forces, and other bodies. tepco says debris across the compound and flooded switch boards hampered the setup of the trucks. the company says a switch board for the number two reactor was eventually wired to one of the trucks about 24 hours after the disaster. but a short time after that, a hydrogen explosion at the neighboring number one reactor damaged the wiring, cutting off the power supply from the truck. two days later, vehicles were damaged by flying chunks of concrete following a hydrogen explosion at the number three reactor. electricity was finally restored to the plant through the regular power grid 10 days after the quake and tsunami. >>> the environment ministry says it will take

the war was not the fault of the south with the north, it was the fault of all of us. slavery was not a southern institution. it was a national institution. of course, this was the great industrial revolution. new york city, pittsburgh. thomas edison and his phonograph. consumers' shopping, advertising. this is what post war america was about, not for construction. historians have focused on this issue of race and reconstruction. it was certainly important to african americans in the south and to some white southerners. the nation could care less. they were concerned with the growing of the cities. this country grew in the 1870's faster economically than any other time in our history before or since. it was a marvelous decade polling many into the middle class, the homes and to montgomeryward. what about the south? this was a depiction of the south, the semi south, the south of black people picking cotton just like they did in the 1830's and 1840's and 1850's and 1860's. nothing had changed. why did we fight the civil war? why did 620 men die for this picture? we are c

the largest factors that caused the crisis are the recession and the fact that the postal service has to make annual payments to refund the retiree benefit obligation even though there are surplus funds in the pension plan. today the postal service is still running a deficit mostly because of the retiree health benefits payments we are making. we wouldn't be running the deficit if we were not paying 5 billion plus into the health benefit fund despite the fact that there's 50 to $75 billion surplus sitting in the pension fund. senator carper's bill and senator collins bill would fix the problem and we strongly support those efforts. in fact, the lead was one of the original supporters of senator collins bill. without substantial relief in this area the postal service cannot continue as a viable entity for long term. no business of any type in any part of the country could afford to pay $5 billion supplemental annual income tax as competitors do not pay and remain viable. one reason the postal service should not do is close the small post offices. as senator collins will tell anyone, sm

cost to the rest of the world. i don't think it will change foreign policy in any dramatic way i remember that britain already shares a huge amount of intelligence with the united states in fact britain's nuclear deterrent can't actually launch a nuclear missile on its own so in fact what is happening today is largely symbolic the special relationship phrase was a people he tested one. blair was in power and his relationship to bush was seen in britain pretty much more one of approval rather than. yes in a sense it will describe these unpopular wars. not everyone welcomes president obama's presence in the u.k. a range of groups are using it as an opportunity to demonstrate against what they see as the anglo-saxon machine and islamist fringe organizations linked aggressive foreign policy led by the u.s. and the u.k. supported variously by france and other nato allies with terror attacks there's a war taking place to go. out unless and until they leave they stop supporting the dictators it was the countries. supporti

and the biggest juncture between the chorus and the verses was taken and appropriated as the patriotic affirmation as the downtrodden be it known that. and so, there is a lot of commentary on that when george will tries to sort of claim mr. springsteen for reagan and some rights. and that's part of the story that's pretty well known. what is less well known is the way in which that incident or that episode really transforms bruce springsteen's career, which is that i'm not too worried, it really led to his politicalization insert it being public about it. and he ends up not only speaking politically to the live audiences more and more about both domestic matters and foreign policy, but he ends a disorder that tenet out through really with of course the help of his staff, sort of researching local groups that helped the labor unions, homeless down the line and using his concert as a platform to talk about the work of local organizations and raising $25,000 a night. so there is a transition. it is sort of indicative of some of this complexity. you know, even his impressions of inks about

the existence of israel, because the end of the conflict, the end of the occupation, and the creation of a palestinian state will only come as a result of negotiations between the parties -- not unilateral declarations at the u.n. although the arab spring has not been alike -- about israel, there are those like syria and iran who want to make it about is a row to distract attention from their own families. i worried how a stalled for the tiering situation between palestinians and israelis might play in a new democratic politics of the middle east, and i will be eager to hear from premise turn netanyahu when he comes in town next week. the four objectives i have suggested tonight -- changing anti-american regimes, consolidating new democracies, reform in pro-american autocracies and renewing israel and palestinian peace effort could form the basis of a new regional order in the middle east, one that is beneficial to our interest, aligned to our values, and consistent with the aspirations of people across the region. however, there is need for some straight talk. even under the best cir

our combat forces are the ones we call when the need is the greatest. they give their all and seek no special praise for what they do. they are the best we have. what great news it was on sunday night that the mission to kill bin laden succeeded and every as much as we all wish it could be ended discernibly as it ended, the war goes on. and it's still demands are attention and commitment to victory. the troops surge has made a difference in afghanistan. we cannot surrender those gains to what is left of the taliban. early in the conflict, america and our allies devastated the al qaeda network in afghanistan. yet al qaeda is still at work, and that is why we need to prepare the afghan security forces to protect their own people. we must ensure that afghanistan does not once again become a sanctuary for terrorism. after so many years, there is a temptation to despair of ever gaining of final victory against our enemies. but if we have learned anything this past week, it is our patient commitment to the highest objectives will be rewarded. we all heard it

and at the same time we have the huge environmental risks. the fact of the matter is the b.p. oil spill a year ago showed us the environmental risks that are involved with deepwater drilling. and there was a bipartisan commission that was put forward, democrat and republican, testified before the natural resources committee that i serve on. but no republican effort is being made to implement those recommendations and say ok, we need to do certain things before we can do offshore drilling in these deepwater areas. nothing at all. when you open up these areas under this legislation to new drilling, you are just inviting another b.p.-type spill because nothing's being done by the republicans to prevent it. now, i would point out there's all kinds of leases out there now, offshore, that the oil companies can drill and they are not doing it. they are stockpiling them. there's more oil production that's been put forward in the last year or so under president obama than ever before. so we are producing oil. no one is saying that you can't drill in the areas that are already leased. a

the fact is that if the nlrb during the -- doing the bidding of the international association of machinistpace workers prevails here, it will give them the right to dictate business location decisions everywhere even in nonright-to-work states. now there is a great deal of misinformation coming from those who support the nlrb's actions. in this article pearlstein inaccurately describes boeing's manufacturing industry in south carolina as a runaway shop. boeing had no -- it was not obligated under any collective bargaining agreement to keep the work there. it simply chose to locate new work and new expansion in a business friendly right-to-work state. is that a runaway shop? i think not. and i think most everybody would think not. apparently the nlrb agrees with me because the complaint does not allege that this was a classic runaway shop. in those situations bargaining unit work that is contractually obligated to be performed by members of the union is shut down unilaterally by management. employees are laid off and the company stealthily slips out of town with little or no notice only to

the bar to the left on the next slide is the actual debt for 2010, and the next shows the debt held byunder the congressional budget office baseline. under that pact, the debt will double could we will accumulate more debt in the next decade than we did in the first 221 years of the republic. that is the most rosy scenario. as you can see, the most realistic ones increase the debt further. under either of those, the debt will exceed the size of the economy. with that as a prologue, let's get straight to the heart of the matter. mr. bowles, you have described the past as $2 in spending cuts for every $1 of tax hikes. can you give us the broad outlines of the commission plans to? >> sure, and thank you for having al and me here. i guarantee you will enjoy the color man in a lot more than a numbers guy. these charts are great. if you go back to the previous chart and you look at the enormity of the problem we face, the commission's plan takes the deficit during that time period down to around $279 billion. we cut the deficit in half by 2015, and we cut it to about 3/4 in 2020. we take the
