it's totally unnatural and unamerican for us to be divideded as a country. we're not going to be able to get other act together until such time as we improve our economy and get back on our feet. i put forward a very, very specific list of proposals. i think that's probably unlike anyone else in the race. this is a proposal that's been endorsed by the wall street journal. but moreover this is a proposal, bob, that comes right from what i have done as governor. i do believe the next president of the united states in 2012 will be a former governor. when i talk about tax reform, it's hard-hitting, it's bold. it's big picture. i'm drawing from exactly what i did as governor of a state. i'm not talking hypotheticals. i'm not talking political hyperbole. i'm drawing from exactly what i did as governor because what i did as governor i want people to see as being completely relevant to where this country needs to go in terms of improving its competitive dynamic because that first and foremost, if we don't what needs to be done in

. >> you've got me in the unnatural position of defending obama.'m trying to understand his logic and his logic is that unless i get the base energized, we're now 14 months out, unless i get that, i have no chance. i expect that by the end of the campaign after the summer next year, with a few weeks left, he'll try a pivot to the center. but right now he wants to strengthen himself with the special interest groups, particularly the unions whom he's alienated and the left as a way to get some source of energy behind him. will it work? i don't know. i don't think so. but for obama, it is simply unnatural to pretend to be the kind of centrist that clinton was who won reelection. >> bill: that's what we said in the talking points memo. he's hoping to have numbers in the minority precincts and in the unions and they devoted luck to overcome the republicans. >> and he's hoping he'll draw a weak opponent. >> bill: charles, thanks very much. we appreciate it. pin heads and patriots on deck. am i your humble correspondent a pinhead? could be. right back. lu

it is unnatural in this country to be as divided as we are.t i was talking about in terms of civility -- civility can co-exist with the facts. you bring out facts in the campaign. you compare and contrast with the candidates but it is unnatural to be as divided as we are as americans. we're going to disagree on the pathway to get there but the bigger picture stuff, like the idea that we want to leave the country to the next generation better than it is today, that's coming together as people. >> what is your honest view of the tea party? what is something that you would say to a friend over dinner? >> i'll tell you what i told most people, if not everybody. that is i think we're having discussions today about fiscal responsibility because of the tea party. it was a manifest -- i saw this in china. the rise of the tea party, a total manifestation of american democracy. you wouldn't see that happen anywhere else. rising up from different corners of the country, yelling and screaming about something they feel passionately about. i think it is goo

it says kiev's proposals on the issue are not concrete and the current deal can be revised even unnaturally previous disputes left europe in the cold after transit supplies were cut as alexia chefs reports ukraine's busy looking for ways to go it alone. when the two thousand and nine disruption to european gas supply sparked when ukraine blocked transit of russian gas ended the continent gave a collective sigh of relief but the issue has remained a thorn in the side. hard for a discount from the current market price of four hundred us dollars four thousand cubic meters. we made ourselves clear if we want cheaper gas can integrate into a common economic space if they don't want out and give us a good commission offer like selling our gas transportation system to us they don't want any of those only discounts however it seems t. of is already looking for an alternative the state route it has signed an eight hundred million dollar contract with wild art shell to spore its reserves of shale gas but experts warn about the danger to public health that would what is the chill gases extracted by hy

the familiar territory within the bathtub walls was unnaturally quiet as i descended. empty of the nearly 4 million pounds of debris that had so recently fallen there. it was a slow meditative walk filled with images that randomly flashed across my mind. i felt as if an enormous transparent library soared above me through which i could see distributed throughout its layered levels the 8,000-plus images that i had made. first, as i walked on my early rounds over the hills of rubble and later spiraling down and around the site throughout the successive months of its removal. i crossed over the path train tracks, near where the last column had stood. as i stopped for a moment, to look at a weathered scrap of newspaper, yellowed and decaying at my feet, my eye caught a touch of unexpected color. there in the shadow of a railroad tie some tender sheaths of grass were making their way up through the rubble. for 35 years this patch of dirt must have lain there in the dark, beneath the rolling wheels and pounding of the trains. and now with a little sun, some rain and the cycl

being a politician is totally unnatural. human conversation is interaction and answering questions. and you have to unlearn that impulse. the people unlearn that impulse goes furthest as presidential candidates. you really saw in that question, who is ready and who is not? >> can i also second something that chris said. i thought watching rick perry try to get out of his mouth the attack line, the attack lines on mitt romney who was there just waiting to get hit was really very revealing. because it shows not only had he not practiced enough. i remember talking to david carney who is the top adviser a couple months ago when carney was trying to slow down the train of getting rick perry in the race because they knew he had to practice a lot. they had to get him up to speed. the fact that he couldn't execute the most basic maneuver of what his attack line of the next month or two would be. romney, the flip-flopper thing was very revealing. rick perry doesn't understand it from the inside out and can't repeat it from the inside out. >>> that will have to be our last word. from this seg

that is not unnatural phenomenon. only the federal reserve can do that.f you invest long, you want a higher return because it is riskier. banks make money by borrowing short. if you convert the yield curve and create negative short-term rates, the margins go negative. that is why -- we are buying watermelons for $10 and selling them for $8. the banking business is a funny business. you can get higher interest rates by taking more risks. if you look at most of the bad loans that were made, they were made during the periods of inverted interest rates. at the same time, the federal reserve, economists and ben bernanke were setting, this would not create a recession. not only did he give us incentive to create risks, he said, everything is going fine. in a fundamental sense, it is not mathematically possible. the secondary factor was the fdic. that sounds like a good thing. however, it destroys market. bb&t took over a failed bank in atlanta. a lot of banks failed in atlanta. it is a very typical story. 10 guys in the hotel business raised little capital. lev

happened before that this in north dakota, sparsely populated state has been devastated by these unnatural, you say, but certainly unusual floods who have ravaged that state. that's not the only state. many states have been hammered hard. who would ever have thought a year ago that a relatively small community, joplin, missouri, would be hit by almost 300-mile an hour winds, and the winds didn't just whip through, they roiled around for such a time that they basically destroyed that town. there are many other examples of what has happened with being unable to determine what would happen in the future. suffice it to say, we provided funds last week here in the senate to help americans whose lives have been devastated by floods, hurricanes, and tornadoes, and other natural calamities. we passed a bipartisan bill granting fema and other agencies that help disaster victims need, an additional $6.9 billion. that's probably not enough. frankly, madam president, after the committee did their work, reported the bill out of some $6 billion, i asked the different subcommittees to find out what addit
