most of those fell by the wayside during the year. three key bills the merged as a viable bills of interest. those are ab 16, page one of your matrix. ab 145, page 3. and sb 517, page 19. one bill deals with try to establish a california-first policy for and rolling stock procurement. i will describe the other two bills. one would create a new department of trains that would bundled high-speed rail with the current division of rail and caltrans into a new department. in contrast, the other measure approaches it different. it just takes high speed rail authority and places it into the cabinet secretary's office. it has a host of other changes, but that is the main thrust of that bill. the administration spent most of july and august and digging into the high-speed rail program, trying to understand it and get their arms around it. to the extent that they finally appointed one new member, who they have a high degree of faith in, dan richard, used to be on the bart board and is a consultant in washington. he has now become the governor's

>> i think those people will go by the wayside. but remember, the first vote in this contest will not be cast until january. in iowa -- we have a lot of distance to go. knows what will happen in the next several debates? i think you will find romney will be on -- be receiving more attacks from the other members in the group, especially someone like not only huntsman, but he will hear from gingrich, he will hear from bachmann, and hearing it from perry. >> would have rick perry comes to town and get into the room and say so so security, we have to do it this way. it was as first debate. >> that is true. he said i am a novice. i need to correct mark rossi own contradictions. social security is a system where those who pay in the early receive their money from those who pay and later. >> that is right. >> that is the definition of social security. it is, as you said, pay-as-you- go system. it is not a system where i save and i get my savings. you pay as you go, you pay in and you received what later generations are giving you. and the

00 in the morning, talking about this was an opportunity they were not going to see let go by the wayside. i just want to express to you how grateful i am to you all for allowing us to work with you to get to this point. [applause] how much it means to be able to deliver on their promise, and just one thing before i go, for everybody here before you leave, i want you to look beyond the garden over here, this piece of land. it will not mean much to you now, but what i want you to understand is that that piece of land will be the first site to get developed here. the reason why that is important is because nobody, if they do not want to, will have to move from this neighborhood as this development occurs. [applause] this is not one of those things where a new shine the building is built, and the focus -- the folks who live through the years of this investment and neglect will not get a chance to reap the benefits. we can say that with 100% confidence. [applause] again, thank you, to the residence for letting us be part of this. thank you for letting us work with you, and thank you so much t

health care generally falls by the wayside, both for themselves and for their children. for these workers, the promise of san francisco's health care security ordinance, when it was passed, it be a way to ensure they would get at least some measure of their sub tan tive -- substantive health care needs met. we believe in order to ensure the ordinance has a meaning in their lives the loophole be closed and campos amendment does that best. workers need to access and accumulate real amounts in these health reimbursement accounts so they can meaningfully offset the basic and serious health care events that can and often do derail their lives when they're not covered. employers shouldn't be allowed to take a backdoor around the purpose and intent of the legislation you already passed. they shouldn't be allowed another bite at the apple here. on behalf of the community and clients we represent, we urge you to close the loophole and support the campos bill. >> thank you. and i would like to acknowledge our next speaker, who is a former member of the board of supervisors, former

to protect the people it will be in there for a very short period of time quickly that fell by the wayside and we even have the chief british generals actually coming right out and saying no it wasn't ever about that at all we wanted to remove saddam rather we wanted to remove gadhafi and that's what we're going to do so you know i mean they they keep bringing up these new i think it obama's case they had to go with the humanitarian argument because the other ones were not going to fly with this political base but i guess what i'm trying to get out in this is just a quick answer please but is this the same thing that we've always seen where you're saying this is a p.r. spin put it on to sell a war or is this a situation that's getting worse and we're less justification is needed for going to war for bombing people. oh absolutely less justification is needed every year and we can see that when we transition from a very hawkish republican president to a purportedly liberal democratic president who ends up doing the exact same thing and it's an interesting point to make and i appreciate you b

agenda will be coming out later this week but in the meantime like everything else is falling by the wayside and the media thank you so much for joining us tonight. great to be with you. that's not a confident thirty seven year old man died after an encounter with california police in july night seven officers involved have been charged with him good enough to return and in less than an hour georgia inmate troy davis is scheduled to be executed despite a mountain of evidence to suggest that he just might be innocent and experience tells us that the young turks throwing people that hispanics. into that only military mechanisms to do the work and to bring justice or accountability. i have every right to know what my government truly you want to know why i pay taxes. but i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so poorly sleep you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else here sees some other part of it and realize that everything is ok if you don't. charge is a big issue. let's not forget t

certainly shouldn't be letting five hundred million dollars if that's what's getting wasted go by the wayside without at least asking questions and the principle here is really important because what if the next deal is sort of a ten billion or twenty billion and we haven't sort of established disclosure transparency is the norm quite the opposite is that a bad precedent in that sense but why exactly do you call it a bailout ok so here's here's how it could be a bail out this sort of pool of mortgage servicing rights if anybody forecloses one of the loans that they're collecting payments on or for any of those get refinanced or any of those get paid off sooner then the value of that portfolio drops so it's a seventy three billion dollars of loans maybe you can maybe you're going to make five hundred million or billion dollars on that how we might see a lot of refinancing now we're going to see a lot of refinancing is coming or we've already are there is. bank of america has said in this portfolio there's at least three. percent of it is going to become delinquent so at least thirty percent of

is still in iraq and the promises of hope and change how fall in by the wayside and you we can't people can go and hear that i believe in one of our later shows you did a great job of summing it up but tonight i know that we're going to hear from turkey and i believe that ahmadinejad had something to say about the u.s. has role in the u.s. is i guess bowling the. president a minute believes that the u.s. is playing i guess of a bully role with turkey that was his interpretation i asked him about turkey because turkey and the u.s. have signed agreements and nato to establish basically a missile system that would be pointed a missile defense of you pointed towards iran no turkey is an ally of iran turkey is also working with nato countries and the united states it's positions itself sort of is the middleman but i asked iran is is is the relationship being compromised in any way now that turkey is working with the u.s. working with nato more closely here's what he had to say. the united states of america is a bully has force and imposes its will just as you see that is able to impose its w

that will be coming out later this week but in the meantime like everything else has fallen by the wayside and the media thank you so much for joining us tonight. great to be with you. a fella comes in i thirty seven year old homeless man died after an encounter with california police in july tonight some of the officers involved have been charged with a fake return and in less than an hour georgia inmate troy davis is scheduled to be executed despite a mountain of evidence that suggests that he just might be innocent and experience tells us to the young folks joins me for that. into that only when you're with the mechanisms if you don't work out to bring justice or accountability. i have every right to know what my government should do if you want to know why i pay taxes. well i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so sorely sleep you think you understand it and then when something else here's some other part of it i realized everything is i don't know i'm sorry bloggers a big fish. let's not forget t

that will go by the wayside as we head to the west of the week. we will see cooler conditions with high clouds lifted this week but a warming trend to the weekend i will have details on your up and down forecast coming up in just a little bit. >> authorities are searching for two men that attacked an elderly couple during a home invasion it happened on henry avenue early sunday morning. reggie kumar talk with the neighbors that said that they were shocked. >> at 1:30 p.m.--a.m. sunday morning they heard and acted their door, when they went to see was there to male suspects, and an 72 year-old man and woman into opening their doors they would not say what they told a couple to get inside. >> that information we are not releasing at this point but they did gain entry into the house, they wrapped the elderly female resident in saran wrap to detain her, and they physically assaulted and severely beat the elderly male resident. they then gained access to the safe that was inside the house and they stole several items of value including firearms in jewe

just letting the people who have had the privilege of climbing the ladder of success stand by the wayside, we have to come together to respond to the problems that we face, and i think now is the moment, especially given what's been happening in my state and people reengaging and understanding that they must speak out in order to be heard and understanding that they need a strong voice in the u.s. senate. >> tammy baldwin, democratic congresswoman from wisconsin and now a candidate for u.s. senate in that state. thank you for your time, i appreciate you being with us on this night after you've announced. good luck. >> thank you so much. >>> okay, so the answer to the question when are you going to have one of the republican presidential candidates on the show is mere moments from now, finally. former louisiana governor buddy roemer will join us for the interview very, very soon. the political aisle is reach acrossable. >>> 20 years and five presidential elections ago, then-vice president dan quayle was running for reelection alongside president george h.w. bush. it didn't work out, the wh

everything else is by the wayside. you are either with me and we're going to get those rich people and the rich people can't, and we have a sound bite from bill clinton coming up later. they're not going to make a difference on the economy even if you took 75% away from. they it wouldn't matter. >> oh, yes it would. rich people, top 2% are responsible for 33% of the consumer spending in the united states. >> bill: so you are saying that the consumer spending would go down if you took that much. i'm saying even if they took the cash the deficits are so enor news it wouldn't matter. >> it would be 00 economy. the economy would get worse in your opinion and i subscribe to that, not as much as you do but somewhat. >> president obama is basically saying, look, the only chance i have, unless something happens, only chance is to get people who aren't making a lot of money to hate the people. >> that's accurate. what is so destructive, so stupid on his part he took whatever momentum he had from that job state of the union spee

. >> and old fashioned notions like checking it out falls by the wayside? >> that often happens. i would give know mcginniss a failing ethics grade in my class but it is pushed by tremendous pressure and demand. >> is the sarah palin and alleged drug use, alleged marital problems, or trig isn't her baby, is that too irresistible for media? >> of course. you can taub about sarah palin, the contents of her bathroom medicine cabinet and we go after it. she's a celebrity, not a politician. she is judged by the rules when people go in to report about her. >> even celebrities are entitled to fair treatment from the media. a statement from todd about this book. this is a man who has been relentlessly stalking my family to the point of moving in right next door on us to satisfy his creepy obsession with my wife. his book is full of disgusting lies, innuendo and smears. to report on what sarah palin did when she was 23, if she did or didn't have a one-night encounter with a basketball star, does the media have a different standard for sarah palin? >> look, this is an irrelevant story abou

a lot of people left on the wayside and there's a lot of attention to her and i think perry jumped inf that attention with her. >> the attention she got was not healthy attention because she misstated things and took antidotes and the woman that came up to her after the debate in florida. what is it about her that isn't ready for prime time? >> part of coming out of the house of representatives is it's a different environment than running statewide as a governor does. her entire political career is in one area of minnesota where she was elected to state senate and congress. it's a big arena. bottom line is there's a scrutiny by the media as you know having been on the campaign trail many times when all of a sudden you get up in 150 reporters asking you different things, sometimes you say things that are not appropriate and you shouldn't say and to a certain extent that's part of her history. >> "usa today" editorial today said bachmann was irresponsible to spread the fear of this vaccine. bachmann's nationally broadcast suggestion that a vaccine can cause mental retardation was irresp

that gives the ipad a run for its money or will it go the way of the others that have fallen by the waysidethat the apple had behind it is content delivery. the ipad and the iphone are tied to your itunes ecosystem. you can buy music and books and movies. that is what makes the amazon product so fierce. they are tie to this content delivery mechanism. you can watch movies and get books. and it is stored in the cloud. >> amazon has their website that is popular that they can push this thing on as well. >> remember last sol holliday season, the kindle was the best selling product on amazon, the entire site. >> let's talk about the ereaders. jaef bee zoes with a new line of kindle ereaders? >> the kindles are amazon's bread and butter. the new kindle is $79. i was talking to your intern here and she was saying she could afford that. >> what are you trying to say? >> they make about what my intern makes. >> we didn't get to the iphone 5 but will the look just like the four? >> will the be slimmer. >> but not cheap summer. >> no they will keep their prices. >> always a pleasure. joe brown. thank

he was going to play in florida and south carolina and all that has gone on the wayside as they try toand if you are a fan, it's a positive sign. >> it's better than the opposite. it is going to be post debate analysis and the last word with lawrence o'donnell tonight at 11:00. tune in for that. that's it for us. mideast experts tomorrow on the show. my exclusive interview with kate edwards, daughter of john edwards and the late elizabeth edwards. to follow the show online, my colleague has a look at what's next on "news nation." >> great to see you coming up, president obama is set to land in cincinnati in a few minutes from now and optics do matter. the president is giving a speech in front of a bridge that connects the home states of two gop leaders and say the location of the speech you are about to hear is no accident. plus a new plea from former president jimmy carter for the nation to reexamine the death penalty after the execution of troy davis. next on "news nation." ♪ [ dog barks ] [ birds chirping ] ♪ [ mechanical breathing ] [ engine turns over ] ♪ [ male announcer ] the al

when everybody told him that he should let the auto industry go to the wayside, he stepped up to take bold action and saved the auto industry and put hundreds of thousands of people back to work and saved a lot of communities from pain. when it came to the health care bill, he was willing to stand up. i mean, he didn't get much help from across the aisle and they did everything they could to negotiate it down so that it wasn't effective, but he stood up for that. when it came to the stimulus package, he stood up and said, we have to help americans get back to work. so, he has done some bold things in the past, but we need him to be bold again and a leader again, and we need him to be aggressive again and singularly focus on creating jobs, jobs, jobs and more jobs and actually steam roll anybody who gets in the way. >> do you think that if you were being critical that president obama has left this far too late, and should have dealt with this almost the moment he took over as president, because he put a lot of time and energy into the things like the health care plan and into sorting o

if some fall by the wayside and don't give the president this card and this support when you know wherehe republicans are going to be, this is going to make it a heavy lift. but the president said, this economy, these people can't wait another 14 months. how important is it for the democrats to stick together on this and support the president? >> i think it's critical for us to be united on this. like you said, they're probably not going to bring this specific bill up, but we need to be united about a comprehensive plan for how we're going to rebuild the united states of america. and this is a part of that that needs to get done. >> now, a development today, the super committee is coming up, all right? the president, the white house said today that the president is going to take social security off the table when the super committee gets together for deficit reduction. your thoughts? i mean, we keep -- look, we keep hearing the word "reform." this is the new word that i hate, reform. because reform means cuts, got it? so, i mine, how important is it that he take it off the table? >> i t

things and more progressive spectrum of things, and i worry about those being sort of thrown by the wayside if it is broken into parts. if you break it up into parts, first of all, we've got to remember, we are dealing, we continue to deal with a massive what's called -- what economists call an output gap, which is the difference between what this economy could produce and what it is producing. it remains huge. and $450 billion is not big enough to plug it. so we are already dealing with a sort of plug that's too small for the hole. if you start to pare that down, you start to end up in a situation where the final impact, while it has actual definitive positive results in real people's lives, at the macro level isn't doing what you want it to do in terms of the growth rate and unemployment. >> in terms of the president's options here and his means of moving forward, how important is it that senator bob casey, democratic senator ostensibly, jim webb, mary landrieu, other democrats are complaining about the jobs act in public to the press by name including complaining about the president's pe

from the time he did not allow the bush measures to go by the wayside on the tax breaks that he should have last december until the present day, he hasn't taken one step to demonstrate how tough he really can be and how principled he can be and how, at all costs, in terms of his base support, he's willing to take steps he hasn't done that, and i think that's what jimmy is talking about. >> and that's what he's running on. basically, he's basically forced because he hasn't dumped the bush economic policies. they're the policies he has to defend. isn't that weird, michael? i always say to people who are republicans, okay, fair enough, but we're operating under junior tax policy. this guy hasn't changed it. it's what bush gave to him. all the tax cuts for the rich, all those breaks, obama hasn't busted them. he's living under their regime. >> but don't play by their rules and call them out on that. these are the policies that got them into this mess. next week, as you pointed out, going to cincinnati, going to john boehner's district -- >> is this tough enough at this point? >> i think it

all of that after 9/11 went by the wayside and the politics around this, as you well know, has changed. >> dramatically would be a significant understatement. we'll see what happens on this one. let's put another one to the test. michele bachmann was criticizing the governor on the hpv vaccine, requiring young girls to get a vaccine. she said the governor seeded in her view for this executive order because of undue influence. she said his fromer chief of staff was the former president for the company. >> the company was merck and it was a $5,000 contribution that i had received from them. i raise about $30 million. and if you're saying that i can be bought for $5,000, i'm offended. >> does he have reason to be offended? was it $5,000, ed? >> well, this is interesting. merck donated $5,000 to rick perry's gubernatorial campaign in 2006, just that one year alone. in the last ten years since rick perry has been governor, merck has donated more than $28,000. $20,000 was done before this hpv vaccine executive order was

i mean, i think the guys that go by the wayside, they go home in the off-season. they eat.ectator dreams of catching a stray ball. maybe not this guy, five months ago, who was holding a newborn. a baseball can easily travel more than 100 miles per hour. so, in some sections, you've got to keep your eyes open, or you can get hurt. the safest spot? the nose bleeds. that's where i put my son. in the target seats, jonathan adams is a first responder. part of turner field's emergency services. he watches to make sure that 20-odd foul balls hit into the stands every game haven't hurt anyone. jonathan and i wait for a foul ball. suddenly -- everyone all right? foul ball. everyone's okay. if a fan is hurt, for any reason, medics will be there within 90 seconds, transporting the patient in a souped-up golf cart. to a medical room like this one. the staff here sees about 20 emergencies per game and 20 walk-ins. anything from blisters to heart attacks. this looks like a regular emergency clinic. >> it is. we have it set up similar to a hospital emergency room. with the bed, the crash

. >> two women, not one technically in have seem to have kind of fallen on the wayside.is your take on michele bachman and sarah palin? >> reporter: well, sarah palin i don't think is going to enter the race. she's a big tease. she loves to say hey to the media, i might do it, i might not. she's not going to do it. her 15 minutes of fame are over. michele bachman, i think her time is ending too rick perry stole her thunder. she did very well in iowa before rick perry got in the race but there are only so many christian conservatives to go around. >> president obama facing some fallen poll numbers including some from his base. the economy obviously continuing to struggle. what does the president need to do in order to win reelection next year? >> i i think the president needs to make clear the differences between him and the republicans. es he come forward -- he's come forward very nicely on the american jobs act. republicans are saying we're going to stop you. we are not going to allow the economy to succeed. we're going to cut spending. we're going to harm state buckets

what's even more interesting to me is the way the rest candidates have just fallen by the wayside. >>t's happened? they've got to kick-start something to get the kind of attention that romney and perry are getting? >> well, right now i think what you have is a recognition that most of them are talking -- like michele bachmann -- about extremes that just aren't going to make it in the game. though one or two may have a moment tonight but what you're see something a real debate about issues and the question is are either of these two guys, romney or governor perry, going to show up with a new idea tonight. >> let's take a look at a new ad from rick perry. maybe this will help set the tone of what we might be seeing this evening? >> the united states of america really is the last great hope of mankind. it is time to get america working again. we don't need a president who apologizes for america. >> clearly a very dramatic, very americana. will, is this rick perry or much more of the same? >> i don't know if that's new but it is rick perry through and through. that's the rick perry, being

the matter was president, who runs the congress, we are in fact will go by the wayside and not be enforced. host: punishes to campaign contributions. senator max baucus chairs the senate finance committee was the biggest recipient of money. senator john kerry was second. how does that shaved their discussion? guest: i have been a doing this for 30 years. i work for a senator who got a lot of money from the energy industry. he did this because when he was elected, he was a very pro- domestic energy. to draw a "they got this money, therefore they got this way" is a little bit backwards. they drop support or oppose, they wanted to get reelected. it does happen a lot the money makes a difference. if elected default people on the super committee, almost none of them are in it delectable trouble. they come from save districts or states. you cannot make a good case that they are being bought and sold will be influence beyond their natural inclinations. host: our guest is with the bipartisan policy center and nici.with p to managiete domionc caller: thank you for taking my call. i like to make a c

i was wondering, are we getting pushed to the wayside because of the importance of people already inlitary? guest: i don't think it is an either or question. i think you are right, we need more education in general. i certainly don't think that there should be priority put on one rather than the other. a function of what we are talking about now are people in the military and making their the military and making their way through the career ranks. we want them to have the best education possible, to fight the kind of wars that one of the earlier callers talked about in dealing with a complex environment. host: our guest is joan johnson-freese from the war college. caller: i would like you to comment on looking at war as profession as what you said earlier in the program. it is scary for me to hear war as a profession. are you looking at the causes of war and how to have war no more? looking at war as a profession is a scary proposition. and i will take my answer off the air. thank you. guest: that's a fair question and a good question. military officers are in a profession. we want t

with our system that a school like that that produced so many great kids could somehow fall down the waysideopout rates. when we met and i think you and mika and everyone at "morning joe" deserves so much credit for highlighting this tragic situation and this emergency. again, we asked the question collectively, what can we do to make a difference? so this 60 million people who go through starbucks stores, we created this fantastic coffee with "morning joe" and now beginning next tuesday there will be a $5 coupon which goes to donors choose. donors choose is an extraordinary organization that allows our customers to donate to the school of their choice, to the classroom of their choice, or any specific project that they want to engage in through this donation. so this is an opportunity for "morning joe" and starbucks to use our collective assets, again, to be a catalyst for change. what this is about right now is that we can't wait for washington. we have to make a difference and the private sector has got to step up and hopefully send a positive signal that we're not going to stand by. we'r

sequester in january 2013, no matter who is president, who runs the congress will in fact go by the wayside and not be enforced. donations to campaign contributions -- for the super committee, max baucus was the biggest recipient of financial sector money, collecting $6.2 million. -- host: how does that shade their discussions? guest: i've seen a variety of ethics rules and regulations. i worked for a senator who got a lot of money from the energy industry. the reason he did was because when he was elected was very pro domestic energy. i think to draw a they got this money, therefore they have done it this way is a little bit backwards. what happens is, they have certain views in many cases and because those views draw the sympathy or support of groups, the groups want to get them reelected. i am not nighties. it does happen a lot of money makes a difference, but if you look at 12 people on the super committee, almost none of them are in electoral trouble. they come from safe districts or states or they are not coming back. you can't make to be a good case they're being bought and sold or b

something we can do then duet rather than wait for the market to take care of it then drop by the wayside. >> host: mobile alabama, please go ahead. >> caller: good morning. i enjoyed seeing you when you were a guest when you word show in the morning. there are two things i would like to talk about. one has to do the loss of the industrial education in high school and the other is the corporate welfare as opposed to social welfare. when i started school, i started teachers college in the late '60s. they were telling us we should the be educating our children to the workers that is when they took up the industrial education output to have a liberal education in high school. i think the problem of the liberals in conservatives conservatives-- conservative is that we are not fair when we look at problems reseal what appeals to us but then ignore the other parts of the situation in the part about not making our children be workers was a liberal idea more or less. and the conservative idea is make them available to get a job. >> guest: i am not sure that was a liberal/conservative divide but i
