i think -- chairman upton is a very sensible person. if you get a couple people from each party saying that this agency is trying to find a legal authority to do what it needs to do. all of our constituents want broadband. you want your constituents to have broad band. right now, the fcc cannot do that under its legal authority. >> this is brit glass. he is in laramie, wyoming. mr. glass, tell us about your company and tellus called the fcc's decision affects you. >> larry it is the company that i operate in laramie, wyoming and it is a wireless internet provider. we were doing this back in 1992. people were concerned about permission to innovate. if the regulations that the fcc has just passed, we would not have been able to innovate in what we wanted to do. we are concerned that they will actually outlaw the most popular plans that make broadband affordable for people who get our wireless service. we are very worried. we're worried about what will happen with investors. a number of investors have backed up and the fcc regulation will

upton wanted to be chair, and he campaigned for it, as you said. changing his mind on this point, right? >> fair point. totally. they do have consequences, that's right. just like you had upon the changing his mind -- upton changing his mind, you had congressman kirk saying i voted for it, but now i wouldn't. >> it's a representative democracy. >> yes, sir. >> matt from delaware. in this instance you have the clean utilities kind of going against the dirty you facilities -- utilities. is it conceivable that the clean utilities ever consider kind of teaming up with the dirty utilities because of a fear that, like, once the coal plant's gotten cleaned up they might come after them? call 'em clean, but it's not like they're 900% clean -- 100% clean, so do you feel the everything pa might set their sights on them next, or is it they just want to make the coal companies go through what they kind of go through now? >> for purposes of this discussion and this presentation today, i purposefully oversimplified some of the details. and clean and dirty, there

and there does seem to be that there considering the new members, fred upton is interested in privacy, but there seems to be a disconnect between democrats and republicans on the issue of do not track. ed whitfield, for example, who could potentially take over the consumer protection subcommittee, wasn't a huge fan of the technology. he didn't speak favorably of it at last week's hearing. do you sense there's a political disconnect on that issue? >> guest: i really don't. time will tell. i think particularly if it's implemented by companies, i think some of the, some of the business community who, that opposes what we're doing probably said, you know, industry is totally opposed to this and, you know, and this is going to change as the quote was from the iab, change the ecosome of the internet. but i think when you start to see companies like microsoft, you know, which is not, which is, you know, the leading browser company with, i think, a 59% market share endorsed this, i think that also sort of helps so that, it helps people understand, members of congress that, you know what? it's

then you have fred upton from michigan, heading up energy and commerce committee. host: what does it say that those folks were chosen over sort of the leading candidate for those committees? guest: they were actually the leading candidate for the most part. upton was the most senior member after joe barton, current ranking member, as was how rogers. barton and jerry lewis from california, both have been the ranking members or chairmen for three consecutive terms, which is a two-year term, republican role. the fact that john boehner said from the beginning he did not plan to let them serve another term -- in order to do that but republicans. committee would have to get a waiver that would allow them to go beyond the term limits. that was something john davis said he was not willing to do, something the republican transition committee said they would recommend that role stays in place. it was not a surprise that these two were not permitted to continue as the top republican on those panels. host: "the wall street journal" editorial on the steering committee picking h

i think fred upton is prepared to move on obamacare. the house from day one, prepared to move towards a healthier, more prosperous, more employed america. i think that's good news for the country. >> sean: i think it is too. one question about congressman boehner soon to be speaker of the house. you even suggested that he could learn perhaps from some mistakes that you think you made when you took over. he's done a couple of interviews, he's gotten emotional, he's been hammered and criticized for it. is that a bad idea? >> it is interesting if you are a republican and done show emotion it is a sign you are aloof, cold and indifferent. if you are a guy who is heart of a huge family who worked his way up and proud to be an american it is a sign that there is something wrong. i think you have to relax. the news media is going to find some reason to criticize you. john boehner is true to who he is. wonderful person, he has a deep passionate love for america. i think he's really deep down humble to be where he is and sometime it shows. i thi

the energy and commerce committee, and it will be my strong recommendation to our new chairman, fred upton of michigan, and our new speaker, mr. boehner of ohio, and our new majority leader, mr. cantor of virginia, that we sit down with our stakeholders, with our friends on the soon-to-be minority side of the aisle and let's come up with a system that adequately reflects the will of both parties and also gets buy-in from the stakeholders and reflects the cost of practicing medicine as it is today. i know it's going to be expensive. i know it's going to be difficult. but it will be possible, and i hope we can do that. so with that i would reserve the balance of my time, would ask for a yes vote when it comes time to vote under the suspension calendar. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. who seeks recognition? without objection, the gentleman from new jersey will control the time. the gentleman is recognized. mr. pallone: thank you, mr. speaker. i yield two minutes to the gentleman from california, mr. farr. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from cal

>> it's called captain upton's house. i think it's one of his great pictures.wned it for about 25 years. >> reporter: and walking around the whitney's edward hopper exhibit with martin and museum director adam weinberg gives meaning to the phrase art appreciation. >> i think it's the great thing about hopper is you think you know what it's about, but no matter how much you study it you never really get it. >> right. i think that's what makes art really great art great is that you can never quite sum it up in a sentence. you think you can. but once you have done that, the painting has been dead. >> right. >> it's done. >> that's right. >> so great paintings really live on because they're not quite ex-applicable. >> reporter: martin also acknowledges part of the allure of collecting is the thrill of the hunt. >> i talked to a collector friend of mine. he said, steve, i followed this jackson pollack for years. i wanted this picture so bad. for years. and finally it came up. and i got it. and i got it. and i took it home. and i put it on the wall and i looked at it

a couple of candidates, fred upton should be next in the energy and commerce chairman.t: a lot on our plates. guest: absolutely. host: let's get to your calls on the republicans and the president reaching a compromise. here is another headline. first call, houston, texas, and democrats line. caller: good morning. i am just livid. let me tell you why. president obama seems to have no fight for backbone whatsoever. have the republicans taking over the house and senate. the blue dog democrats, the democrats are always [unintelligible] i do not care if it is the wrong thing in the whole country goes down to scrap, the republicans will stick together. let the tax cuts expired. -- expire. let them take their social security and see how it is going to be. i want the democrats to defeat it. host: let me jump in. the president says i am not willing to let working families. caller: i do not care about the working families. the republicans do not care about the working families. nobody cares about of them. we have to stand up and i hope the democrats defeated. what is going to sto

remember reading upton sinclair's "the jonquel" in the eighth grade. jungle" in the eighth grade. that did not seem like a good time. but if you look at studies across the world with regulation and ease of use in -- doing business, the u.s. does not actually rank that badly. there are countries in europe that are much more regulatory than we are. that is not to say there are not things we could fix. for example, the fda, there is a regulatory process to get new drugs and there are medical devices approved. europe has actually made it easier to approve those. i would not go so far as to say we would be better off if we abolished all regulations and to go back to the cowboy days of the 1900's. host: and here's a comment on twitter -- guest: a lot of rural states almost reject the government and say they do not need it, but in some ways the government has been critical with water, telephones. and recently broadband, there was a lot of money put into broadband and much of that is going to rural. a lot of the money goes to farmers, just to give them money for something they were going

the energy and commerce committee, and it will be my strong recommendation to our new chairman, fred upton of michan, and our new speaker, mr. boehner of ohio, and our new majority leader, mr. cantor of virginia, that we sit down with our stakeholders, with our friends on the soon-to-be minority side of the aisle and let's come up with a system that adequately reflects the will of both parties and also gets buy-in from the stakeholders and reflects the cost of practicing medicine as it is today. i know it's going to be expensive. i know it's going to be difficult. but it will be possible, and i hope we can do that. so with that i would reserve the balance of my time, would ask for a yes vote when it comes time to vote under the suspension calendar. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. who seeks recognition? without objection, the gentleman from new jersey will control the time. the gentleman is recognized. mr. pallone: thank you, mr. speaker. i yield two minutes to the gentleman from california, mr. farr. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from calif
