david weaver with the block. we have a whistle and a foul. >> dan: weaver with the block, and ari stewart gets the ball out and does a fabulous job in transition. ishmael smith makes holloway wait, and that allows weaver to get in and block the shot, and then ari stewart takes the ball down the court and makes a great pass to c.j. harris. >> ron: and the freshman from winston-salem, north carolina, at the line. 82% from the stripe this year. joins the like of chris paul, josh howard, and l.d. williams, all hailing from winston-salem. second one not able to go. straight to the hoop with the two is mark lyons, the red shirt freshman out of ask neglectdy. smith, the other end. off the glass, count the basket! he'll go to the line! >> dan: how did he do that? there were four guys in the lane from xavier. he talk about ishmael smith's quickness. his quickness -- look at him turn taylor around. holloway tries to strip the ball from him and can't. once again wake needs another at the free-throw line and there's the foul

vick takes the snap, tries to hand it off to weaver. bobby carpenter all over it. a game changing play. that leads to another dallas touchdown. eagles pretty much out of it after that. here's the cherry on top for dallas. felix jones was the man. gets the ball. runs right. right through the eagles defense. and says excuse me, folks, i'll cutback right here and go 73 yards for the touchdown. dallas wins 34-14 their first playoff victory in 13 years. owner jerry jones high fiving george w. bush. they were having a heck of a time in the new stadium. to cincinnati. bengals. joe gibbs the hall of famer and joe theisman calling the game. mark sanchez to sean green. goes 39 yards for the touchdown. does the rookie. a big day for him. rushing for 135 yards. then my favorite fans, check this out. sneaking in a drink. sanchez on the bootleg, rolls out by tight ends dustin keller wide-open. check out keller. stays inbounds. does the rest. gets in. 45 yards before the jets beat the bengals. this time 24-14. two catches, 28 yards. college hoops now. if you were watching the geo

they take aim at sigourney weaver's character who smokes. "avatar" is one of several movies they criticized for sending the wrong message. james cameron said movies should reflect reality. if it's ok for people to lie or killed, why impose an inconsistent more rollick when it comes to smoking? he goes on to say her character is not a role model in this movie. if she was, he might agree. >> interesting. it's been awhile since we have seen a lead character smoking. >> everybody had a cigarette in the old days. >> i saw "nine" and everybody smoke. that was back in the 1960's. a totally different thing. thank you. we take a break. we still have another half-hour of "good morning washington." >> the president's hung in effigy -- the president is hung in effigy. >> the christmas day bomb plot makes a difference. >> you can see that is better out here. cold gusty winds. maybe some snow in our future. >> live and in hd, this is "good morning washginton," on your side. >>> welcome back to "good morning washington." it is monday, january 4, 2010. we a

applaud the earths you've laurnled with respect to the qddr, a much-needed look at the direction that weaver going. i'm wondering if you can share any insights on the kinds of reform that is might occur as a result of that review. in particularly, whether putting development in diplomacy on equal footing means greater integration or greater independence of decisionmaking between state aid and also to what extent we might see stream lining of the various decisionmaking processes for planning and budgetting. >> well, larry, those are all very important questions. i'm not going to preempt or preview the qddr. we will be having many meetings to explain what the proposed conclusions are and the policy that is flow from them. but i think just your question illustrates the need. i think you can do a lot by questioning assumptions and trying to understand are we just doing the same thing we've always done because we're comfortable with it and understand it? do we have evidence of what could actually make us more effective? and the question you ask goes to the heart how we best perform our jobs and f

does the editing on the books -- business operations are run in petroleum by becky grant and david weaver. we started thinking we were publishing stuff in the newsletter and we wanted to keep it in more permanent form. the web stuff doesn't go away. it is on the backside of mars somewhere in the vast black hole of internet communications, in some government archive. we felt we wanted to put them in hard covers. we began with the politics of anti-semitism. the idea that if you are critical of israel you are an anti-semite which is nonsense. that was a very successful book. we do books in association with the press who are a bunch of organized anarchist's in oakland. we also sell the books on our web site. people right in and we send them to the office. it was natural for us to do it. we put in books that we like. it is not that expensive if you can sell them and you have a web site in which you can advertise them all the time. we have done five or six books. it was done by myself and jeffrey sinclair, co editor of this one. and we have danny cassidy's book. that will be a very important bo

weaver is to this many members of the cartel and yet we don't see a difference. we don't see any change, and dangerously this i think leads us into the idea that you should just kill them all off, that's kind of the philosophy or the mentality that is spreading on the border. just around them all, tell them all off and then at some point it is over, right? .. >> maybe, yes, the military is cooperating with the doesman cartel because they never bust anyone from that cartel. it's taken over the war ez valley. how is that possible? it's like a boxing match. i watched last night a replay of mike tyson and buster douglas. see what it is is the referee's on the side of buster douglas. except no one knows that, and here you have the mexican military seemingly on the side of the guzman cartel. so what does the united states ever do about that? i really done know. >> and another disturbing trend for those of us who are from the border and have lived there a long time, something that marks, i think, quite a difference in what's going on today is the growing role of spectac

[applause] >> you began an important national discussion on the childhood obesity epidemic. i hate following my wife. she is more charming, smarter, tougher, and better looking. but i am looking forward to a productive discussion with all of you on the urgency to crate jobs to move our metropolitan areas for work. i always enjoyed meeting with mayors because they remind me of where i got my start. working with people at the local level, doing our best to make an impact on the lives of of -- of ordinary americans. that is what each of you does every single day. the things that make our cities work, our people go, transit, public safety, sanitation, parks, recreation. it was president johnson who once said that when the purchase of the president -- burdens of the presidency seemed unusually heavy, it could be worse, i could be a mayor.

how bonuses were structured, but i wanted to respond to that caller who said they did not know what weaverbout getting money back from other people. it is a national security issue. we are stabilizing the country. the thing that i wanted to talk about was something that i have not heard anywhere. it is telling the bonuses our tax structure. i understand there was a time when people on wall street would take a small base pay and the rest would be paid in bonuses. the base pay was regularly tax, but the bonus was tax for capital gains, so they've been getting a bonus on the bonus. and i misinformed? guest: this gets to be pretty complicated, and i am no tax lawyer, but how much time. up until the 1990's, a company could deduct whatever it paid its employees and executives against the company's own taxes. you could not tax the company really. in order to get around the tax restriction, and they began paying people lot more in performance-related forms, stock options, bonuses. for the employees, those who receive the options and employees, -- bonuses, they still have to pay full taxes on them.

weaver able to create that. that was the first. the curriculum's and these nursing schools in terms of being a provider are not there. i asked why there are not special ed students and nurses over there. why do you not hire people. there are several individuals that are functional because of the way society has done things, they get locked into the silos and they are there. i am still working on the governor's office and thinking about that. and it could be a good experience for the students. is another piece that we have not done. another impact is how you could make a positive change? nobody takes medicare away in this bill. anything you get from this program does not impact your eligibility. that was big. we did not want to go into this poverty model to get with you are paid on your paycheck for. we went that route. if you have four or five adls, you will be at the minimum. >> this page before medicare pays. that is what is fair and works for you. they're still providing q approved over your head -- providing a roof over your he

weaver operating against time constraints, advertising, etc. it worked against us. -- we were operating against time constraints. we did not have a commissioner, a female commissioner. in 2005 we had two out of the five were female. when the recommendations going forward will be to look at this and ensure that women are more inclusive in the organization and not just at the headquarters but around the country. we have one office that had two women commissioners and a male colleague. by and large we were underrepresented with women in the organization which was unfortunate. given the circumstances, we really could not do much about it. >> on the question about the division of labor between the different un agencies, there are many models about how the un organizes itself in terms of supporting an election treat the afghan model is slightly unusual in the sense that -- in the sense that it is a security mandated mission that does not have a military component. i am not sure if this is a consequence of it, but traditionally when we have a dpa miss

as a communication strategy, i think weaver missing the boat there. in addition to this idea of war. what is it we're actually accomplishing by this? in we're creating more terrorist than we're killing, it's not an effective way of approaching this problem. >> a lot of what i'm hearing from many of you may boil down to provocative weakness. al qaeda has a plan. it's mapped to their success against the soviet union in afghanistan. while we sit around arguing about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. : >> the statement misunderstands what the terrorist mentality is. they are not looking for military victory. they don't expect military victory. what they're trying to do is to de- legitimate ties the government they are tacking, to say that whatever you say your values are, that actually is a hypocritical statement and i can prove that by provoking you into making, taking actions that violate the values you say you appreciate. that violate the rule of law. because it's very hard as a terrorist to convince people the law doesn't matter. right?

at one time, you know a year-and-a-half, two years ago during the campaign we were expecting weaver goingsee all this on c-span. we were hoping we for going to be seeing it on c-span the that is not the direction we-- the in the house and senate will be moving or the president will be doing. we will end up with a partisan approach. i'm disappointed by that perhaps as much if not more than you are. >> host: bud, republican. you are on the air. >> caller: it morning. representative hoekstra i have a question as to why we continue to be on the defensive in screening people to get on airplanes. i think we need to go on the offensive. >> host: what do you mean by that caller? >> caller: i have a specific idea. all the people who are training to be suicide bombers are sent to mecca and medina during the hajj and that ask a high-ranking intelligence officer one time, i bet there are a lot of bad actors at the hodge every year. i think that is where we need to attack. i think we ought to bomb mecca and medina. >> host: mr. hoekstra? >> guest: i think bombing mecca and medina you up to recognize t
