time around has been for a long time is like the enemy of the united states but the problem is iran has collaborated with the united states and with britain and in a very demure arc and it's collaborate to the avenue of the united states and britain and you have got to start. i mean and so the problem is our position is really peculiar we don't know whether it's for example in public it's been very much of us. policy but in private it's been collaborating with the united states in iraq collaborating and i'm going to stand so i think. they have only to blame themselves for a. mistake in politics and the region i think iran is being heavily involved in iraq has been heavily involved and i think this is counterproductive productive i think iran should really take lessons from what's happened to iraq and i think the iraqi people has really if you go to the streets of baghdad goes through so if you like the. really weird of the year end to version of the american intervention i think i mean diversion and internal affairs of countries is wrong. by the united nations the whole community what's happened in iraq was a you know out

it's far from unprecedented to say he has dictatorial powers, the president of united states appoints a secretary of statesecretary of the treasury, secretary of commerce. do they all have dictatorial powers? no, they answer to the president of the united states. if this consumer protection bureau chief oversteps his bounds and the public's really unhappy or even the banks they think they're being treated unfairly, they appeal to the president of the united states and my guess is if rich cordray did any of those things that they prospectively accuse him of he would be forced out by the president. so we elect the president of the united states, the election wasn't contested, he clearly decisively one in 2008, he ought to be able to put in this director or another director or a federal judge that used to be just a matter of course here. but now it's 60 votes for everything and we just... as kay said, all we want is an up-or-down vote. don't filibuster. let ma a majority of the senate decide if richard cordray who everybody says is qualified in both sides of the aisle, let him have an up-or-down vote. if he
