that motivated me into warren. as i mentioned, not only am i finishing--literally this morning i put in the fedex back and said to my editors of finishing it as we speak. the eisenhower book grew almost directly out of the warren book. warren i had thought about and interested as governor and that part of his life. the eisenhower book came to me differently. the editor in new york who believed there was potential for eisenhower presidency read warren bookend came with the idea of working on a race. unlike warren why felt i knew from close toice. unlike warren why felt i knew from close to the beginning of my research -- by the end of their lives they had little use for one another. very quickly the two were a part and there is a series of domestic security cases that the war on court handed down that really set up eisenhower and also had some differences about how the court went about desegregating schools and other institutions. i came to eisenhower believing i would end up a real critical of him. i learned someth

and professor warren. they received documents that look like this and when you take over and have a department under your control, what i would like to let you know is that when someone redact something so you don't know what was redacted, you don't even know what needs come from what request but that is considered excess under foia. you have to find a way to make sure that when you deliver a paper with nothing on it if you are able to tell those who asked what that is responsive to. and literally, it is a judicial watch. what they received word -- they received not as many pages as they should have but received countless pages like this. in the case of judicial watch, they had given them the information that justice on your behalf wouldn't give them. so they had two pieces of paper. they have the one that is responsive and they can see why they have a right to it and then they have a black page. so a week from today you are going to inherit an agency where you are going to have a claim by number of transp

what were the threats from warren jeffs today in court?a courtroom after he repeatedly interrupted court proceedings. the judge send the jury out. the jury couldn't believe what he was saying about polygamy and why his religion is so great. then after the jury left, warren jeffs who says he's a prophet, the closest man on earth to god, said he had received a letter from god and wanted to read it to the judge. "i the lord god of heaven ask the courts to cease the prosecution of my holy way. there will be a judgment against all who prosecute the church. i shall let all people know of your unjust ways. i will bring sickness and death. let this cease". now the judge as you might expect took that as a threat and she said if you say that when the jury is here i will kick you out of the courtroom. he said i'm not issuing a threat. this is just a message i received. >> was this that an actual letter from god? or did he transcribe it? did he explain how he got a letter from god? >> well, no. but i will tell you that some courtroom observers and som

we appreciate professor warren spahn willingness to cleavers chedule -- warren's willingness. i know the american people want to know more about agency that you dedicated in some ways your whole life and certainly the last year to building up. the american people do not understand all of the history that goes into your preparation for this, and i believe today is an opportunity for us all to get a better understanding of that. additionally, the definition " of financial products protection is one that people do not understand. quite frankly, it may apply to pay loans, but that was not the basis for dodd-frank. dodd-frank was about making sure that we never again have a meltdown.because of certain types of credit instruments that were not safe, and sound, poorly documented, and ultimately worth less than they were intended to, but it is clear today that we will be dealing with an agency that will be far larger. the budget for next year is estimated to be larger than the two largest consumer protection agencies combined. a lot of money. additionally, the authority of this agency

let's demonize elizabeth warren. let's discredit the consumer agency by attacking the person that i think should be the head of it. what did they convict her of? i guess i elizabeth warren should take comfort from the fact that the worst thing based -- i guess elizabeth warren should take comfort from the fact that the worst thing they can come up with to discredit her is that a woman charged with protecting consumers and looking out for consumer interests proposed a plan for dealing with the mortgage situation. how terrible of her? shame on her that she would actually sit down and try to figure out what she thought was best and submitted in a -- non-coercive way. i do not think anybody has ever said that elizabeth warren threatened to beat me up. come save me and protect me from elizabeth warren. i would just say this -- >> i would like at least 30 seconds to respond to that. >> you can finish in 10 seconds. >> i do not understand that we go back and forth and response. i will offer to anyone who feels threatened by

that leaves warren free to run for the u.s. senate and possibly challenge scott brown for his massachusetts senate seat. there are a lot of democrats who believe the only way that scott brown can be defeated is by recruiting a big-name democrat with a national fund-raising network. and if victoria kennedy is not there to run and she has all but said she's not there to run, the only other person they can come up with is elizabeth warren. keep a very close eye on that as we come up. >>> all right. governors say the budget debate is a lose/lose proposition for them, whether it's through federal spending cuts or a failure to raise the debt ceiling, either way, governor says they'll have to do more with less. with us now, martin o'malley, with the democratic governor's association. you are governor of one of the eight states that has a aaa credit rating. maryland, virginia, iowa, delaware, north carolina, and utah. but when you got your credit rating reaffirmed, there was a warning that came with it. tell us about the warning. >> it
