the clerk: at the end of the bill, before the short title, insert the following, section, the amount otherwise made available by this act will -- for operation and maintenance, environmental restoration, formally used defensewise is hereby reduced and increased by $1 million. the chair: the gentlelady is recognized for five minutes. ms. norton: mr. speaker, more than 25 years ago the congress charged the defense department to identify and then clean up and remediate properties which the department had owned or at least in order to test -- or leased in order to test chemical munitions. congress did so because these munitions had left hazardous substances related to the work of the department, there are more than 2,000 such sites in nearly every state, all the territories and in the district of columbia. my concern is with the areas of those sites in congested residential parts of our country where there may be dense populations. and there are formerly used defense sites. a classic case, perhaps i'm sure not the only one but perhaps the most important, was the world war i chemical weap

the man at the center of the hacking. the nondisclosure agreements must have taken place between news international and him around 2005 and 2006 at the time that andy coulson was at news of the world. i have a deep concern about who negotiated this and will the prime minister look into this personally and will it be part of the inquiry? >> it needs to be part. the point is the police inquiry. never mind the inquiry that is about to start. there's a police inquiry now into what went wrong of the news of the world. how much hacking, who was hacked? who knew? all of those questioned answered by the police. full on police inquiry, not the rather thin inquiry that happened before. >> in terms of transparency and in terms of meetings between politicians and media, can i ask my friends to go further than the leader of the opposition suggested not just back to the last election, but to the government and see what people on both sides of the house have been up to? >> i think we're going to look at the issue of transparency and how

the 12% is not the final result of the operation, but the first step, the first proof about the possibility to organize this operation in the secondary market. with also some other very important backers. we have the possibility to use the revenue from the second class of the privatisation program, 22 billion after 2014. this is my first answer and first reaction. >> because now if i may, the first point for us is to implement the new program to organize as soon as possible the psi now under the greek ownership for the organization of the procedure. we have the one procedure in cooperation with our european partners and cooperation with imf and with iaf and of the coordinators and legal and financial advisor is we are ready to start as soon as possible because we must clarify the situation and we must implement. this is innovation, and because of that, we must cooperate with all because without the mobilization of the community, and with the goodwill of everybody it's impossible. this is our first obligation. the second target is to implement our own program through the domestic political l

but the fact of the matter is, it's the law of the nation. and the president cannot violate the law or the constitution, and in our opinion he's violated both. now, let me just tell you what's going on in this war that the president says is not a war. we have flown almost 30% of the sortees. that means we have flown 375,000 flights into the combat area. we have dropped bombs and miss -- missiles 132 times and sometimes we hit civilians. nobody likes muammar gaddafi. nobody wants him in office, but the fact of the matter is we've been involved in a war to get rid of him. on pay 22, the figure was that of the missiles that were fired, there were 246 missiles fired and 228 were the united states missiles at $1.1 million per missile. and we're paying p.m. 60% or 70% -- paying 60% or 70% of the total through nato or directly from the taxpayers of the united states. now, the reason i came down here today is to say that we should not be in that conflict because it was not in our national interest and there was no threat to the united states and it w

the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentleman from indiana. mr. visclosky: i move to strike the last word. i rise in opposition to the gentleman's amendment and it would appear there will be others differing in amounts, but very similar in intent. and i think they do not represent the wise energy policy for this country. the first point i would make is that the bill includes a reduction of $491 million for the overall renewable program from fiscal year 2011, even a more significant reduction compared to fiscal year 2010. and so the committee, i believe, fully recognizes its responsibilities to be careful fiscally. but i must also indicate that someone i have a great deal of respect for, my senior senator from my state, senator lugar, has characterized our energy problem as a national security problem. we all recognize it is an economic problem. we can debate the environmental aspects. i think it is an environmental problem itself, but no one can dispute it is a national security issue relative to where we are buying so many of our petroleum produc

the the big dreams. but to the immediate future they still had problems. they had written on the north, canada, and spain was still on the south. so, everything was a little tricky. but they had the vision of the convention taking over the whole continent, and more than the continent. mexico, cuba. some of them jefferson fought cuba will naturally fall to less like ripe fruit. i don't know what he thought would happen to all the spanish. yes, sir. >> it never occurred to me that you mentioned the delay of american recognition of the soviet union. but since you did, i'm wondering is at this conventional wisdom a little bit mistaken? because i always thought of the attitude in berlin in 1933 with whom we did have relationships with hitler's germany, but she held the government of that period as a group of psychopaths and gangsters who came to power by illegitimate means. and so one could say the same about linen's seizure of power. so was this really backcourt on our part or was there some fundamental legi

frankly, the reason the one of the road in the first place is the one it to clean out the hornet's nest of taliban in the area. i wanted to figure out who i could talk to who misjudged the security environment by so much. >> i am not sure it is a question of this judgment -- misjudgment. the security situation really had begun to deteriorate. at the same time, when you look at security and afghanistan is not one single footprint -- footprint. the north and west is a different profile than the east and south. when we began work on one road in the south -- for example, working in the same type of conditions. the other extension of the coast, we did that road. we did not have nearly the security situation that developed later into the program. so, our historic experience was certainly add a serious level of security, but not to the extent of what we are experiencing now. >> is a typical you would have as many subcontractors you have on this? is it typical? you would typically have 24 first-year -- tier subs? >> the 24 first-tier subs, most would be very small. >> give me an example. i am t

the table are the things that drove us in the deficit.t folks know what drove us in the deficit. when you don't pay for two wars in iraq and afghanistan and you borrow all the money from china, you are going to have to pay for it at some point. >> bret: you mention social security in the president's deficit commission report, they say among other things without action the benefits currently pledged under social security are promise we cannot keep. do you think changes need to be made to social security for future generations or not? >> absolutely. you said the operative words. "future generations." we're not talking about balancing the budgets today for future generations. we're doing it because if we don't do it today, the person who pay the mortgage tomorrow see it shot up. this is not about the future obligation. social security will be good for the next quarter century. we should do something after the quarter century, we are not paying 78 cents on the dollar but we're paying 100% on the dollar. >> bret: last year for the first time s

the first two relate to the misdiagnosis central to the legislation and the irrelevance of the wanted resolution powers at a time of crisis, the second to more narrowly concern the federal reserve. first, the agent focuses on -- the act focuses on activities within the existing setup of the financial system. some formally done in banks have to be moved off the balance sheet, and more activities in more institutions are under the scrutiny of regulators, but the incentive to do most activities remains in tact. in a market economy, this means that those activities will continue to be done. financial institutions will spin off bits, rename other parts, and make their balance sheets further void of meaning. thus, the legislative response to the complexity of markets and institutions and related failures of regulation shown in the financial crisis we just lived there has been to make the system more complicated and rely more on regulation. indeed, a designed principle seems to be to preserve the status quo of a landscape dominated by large complex financial institutions. such complexity int

the crew of the airplane was the one to blame for the tragic plane crash which killed most of the country's political elite ninety six people including other presidential car which is going to in april of last year but still there was some controversy in that because many circumstantial evidence was named in some experts believe that this report was used by the commission in some sense to. criticize russia and to shift some part of the blame on to russia this is what some experts have to say about that accident was a simple one type of accident that followed a mistake which has happened countless times before in aviation history they've been given the truth and the truth is on their appeal they can't take it i don't think that the investigators think they can pin the blame on anybody else but i do think that they are looking to some of the blame on somebody else but certainly most of the points voiced by the commission points at the flight crew at their inadequacy and other decisions at their low quality cation while flying this plane but some of the things they talked about were directly p

full extent of the methods used by the news of the world is needed but the government the police have apparently been turning a blind eye to this for years how could that have happened you think. it seems that . the politicians and the police by extensions depends on the media to actually get elected in power and the ways that rupert murdoch actually seems to be going about this business is that if if they don't grant interviews or if they don't do this or that usually they can be dirty then in the press and the newspapers and the empire of a mother by powerful so the news the politicians have got to be friends you know if you want with the press and they certainly were with international news and the news of the world and so at the moment it is but i see that it was difficult for them to actually get out of this friendship or to break this friendship from fears that they might have been in the next elections the police well there was bribery is it seems the investigation will cover perhaps. there may be the investigations were stopped but also the blind eye for so long the eleven tho

the deficit and the debt got worse and worse, and at the same time, the level of the administration's investment had never stopped declining. the level of public investment went from 12.5% of public expenditures in 1974 to 7.5% in 2007. the truth is there and we have to face it. our deficit is first and foremost used to finance current expenditures at the expense of investment. that is to say the expense of the future. for the last 30 years we have filed a deficit and a share investments went from 12.5% to 7.5%. this figure says to me that it is a good illustration of the path that we must take an the path that we no longer must take. we have to relaunch investment. this is a priority. besides, our universities would never have been autonomous if we had not given them the means that they need. this is what we call the campus plan. what would be the efficiency of our effort for public research. it is the research tax credit grew would not have a green economy if we had not started with the environment. the program of investing for the future that we have announced by the prime minister
