the standoff between the executive on the one hand and the parliament on the other. we have to settle these issues. i don't think we are going to achieve perfection. this is a country without a long-standing democratic history. what we have to do is put in place and help put in place basic democratic institutions and functioning government. and the british effort is hugely geared toward that task. >> stewart. >> thank you, mr. speaker. given that for many years our government negotiated with the i.r.a. while we were still fighting there i suspect at some level we will be negotiating with the taliban. would my right honorable friend, the prime minister, agree with me that any negotiations with the taliban, one of the most important things that we must put forward is that al qaeda should never ever become a part of afghanistan if the taliban were ever to be formed a government or a part of a government in that country? >> i think my honorable friend is right. let me make two points. first, it must be an afghan-led process. this is about the afghans trying to bring toge

the source of the problem and the private sector is always the source of the good, and sometimes the government does create problems, and. time the private sector does create wealth, but there are times the public sector has to protect people from the private sector. the down consumer bureau was set up for -- now the consumer bureau was set for that. it was said the other day we don't worry about the federal reserve, what we worry about is an agency that exists to protect consumers, he's also the one who said he thought the regulators, bank regulators, were there to protect the banks. we want to have a regulator there to protect the consumers. i salute miss warren. i regret she will not be able to continue the work she's done, but it will live on as a tribute to both the idea she had, the political work she did with us to get it created, and the extraordinarily good administrative work she did in setting it up. i believe mr. cordray and the others will do a good job and we'll soon have proof that the public sector can in some cases protect citizens from private sector abuses. the spe

under the authority, the fcc is provided the tools to wind down a major firm on the brink the failureshareholders of the firm will be forced to absorb losses. management will be terminated. critical assets can be transferred to a bridge institution. liquidity is obtained through borrowing repaid by the assets of the failed firm, or if necessary, from other major firms in the economy, not from taxpayers. in that manner, the resolution authority allows the government to wind down a firm without exposing the system to sudden disorderly failure that puts the financial sector as a whole at risk. we need to have some humility about the ability to predict every systemic failure of a major financial firm and be sure the creation of a domestic resolution authority is not enough. while the u.s. is implementing the dodd-frank act, it is critical that global reforms proceed as well. in particular, the u.s. should continue to prez for progress or resolution authority on derivatives and on capital. resolution of a major financial firm requires international exoorption, and that's why it's so critic

when you have the president of the of the states take the recommendation of the most forward leaningitary leader in afghanistan when he calls for the complement of surge troops to be a round out their maximum level of little while longer, not for 10 years or 20 years' worth of nationuilding. but the logical and intermediate next step go of makingure the security forces are trained in volumend quality so that i can reasonably take up more of the charge and the challenge of security and afghanistan. notwithstanding that recommendation and compared to the political calendar, it strikes me as something that is a sense of with a droll, retrenchment, and decline. the list goes on. we have the president of the united states saying to syria -- is an enabler to terrorism, send an ambassador back to damascus, refuses to address in any moral clarity, all of those things support that statement. >> america is exceptional and we have a moral clarity to lead the world. what is the moral clarity? >> that we and other developed nations to support these principles and more. human rights. free and fair

they like the plan the plan that john boehner, the speaker of the house, has put forward for the partyry one of them can see this as an opportunity to do a lot more in cutting spending and nothing to raise taxes and they have to protect taxes where they are or reduce them. so, it's a pretty standard line. it's one of the reasons -- nobody is really distinguishing themselves in this debate. and in truth, no one is distinguishing themselves in this field. which is why you have so much activity behind the scenes of talk of somebody else getting in. people trying to read jeb bush's comments over the weekend or christie's trip to iowa mean he'll jump into the race or will rick perry do it in the next week or two. >> let's talk about rick perry. he looks like he's closer than he was a couple of weeks ago, even? >> he's extremely close to jumping in. a bunch of anaheim california, meeting with activists, donors, contingencies from different states come to texas to talk about the foreign policy and campaign. people are walking away impressed, people are walking away thinking he's going to jump

before the cameras and the judge having to pull the people over, but in the final days here, the closing arguments that we heard were powerful many say from the prosecutor who said, listen, you don't make an accident look like a murder. how do we explain this duct tape and three pieces of duct tape that ended up on this child's face? >> and the prosecutor said, who was connected to every piece of evidence in this case. it is one person, the defendant, casey anthony. another effective line i thought from the prosecutor is when she said, look, the defendant wants you to believe everyone else in this case is a liar except for the one person who is the proven liar in this case which again is casey anthony. so i thought that the prosecutors did a good job of streamlining the case, and telling essentially a compelling story of guilt. they had to pull together all of the various strands. on the other hand, there are a lot of questions about this case. no criminal case is perfect. there are oddities. the forensics aren't as strong as the prosecution would like them to be. >> we don't know the ca

the rest of the community or the rest of the country. so to my it's an artificial distinction to a large degree. i think that that's one of the things that refs have gotten away from. ronald reagan treated everybody as if they were equal because they were. so i think the republican party has to get back to that. if you look at where people like my father, who was a reagan democrat, a union member, voted for him, people in our community as i was growing up supported the republican party because they had a host of issues on which they agreed with us. but we start to tell people simply because you're in one organization or another, and they're no longer wanted, they will vote the other way. you will not get to the other issues on which they can and have in the past voted republican. >> which leads to the debate that we've been severing the summer over the debt limit and budget priorities. and to the issue of compromise. why is it so hard for two parties to sit down in compromise on some of these issues? >> i wouldn't use the phrase inabilit
