we have big problems in new york. we also have big solutions in new york. today i'm going to put together -- put forth a three-part plan to make our new new york a reality. part one the next phase in the economic blueprint for our economic growth. part two, a reimagined government that can make it a reality, and part three, a new york vision for progressive future. when it comes to economics can and getting the economy moving our challenge for 2012 is this, how does government, any government, the state government, the national government, but how does government spur job creation in a down economy while limiting spending and maintaining fiscal discipline? the answer is create public-private sector partnership to generate billions in economic growth and create jobs. and that is the challenge we face. spurring the private sector to create jobs without spending state resources that would hurt the economic situation of the state. let's begin by building on our economic strength. we know that new york is a destination location. tourists spent $50 billion in new

of the courts of the state of new york and new york archives partnership trust. it's an hour and a half. [ applause ] >>> thank you, judge. i have a feeling if i say thank you, judge, i'll get a you're welcome from two-thirds of the audience. it's daunting. but i've never spoke ton a crowd of so many attorneys in my entire life. there are several that i want to acknowledge. my daughter meg who is an attorney is here today. [ applause ] >> my cousin, new york state inspector general ellen biben is here today. [ applause ] >> my old friend judge gene odelli is here today. we could go on forever. it's wonderful to see all of you. one other person i want to mention, the subject for this evening is freedom of the press as you know. there is someone in this room who is actually a living hero of the fight for freedom of the press. formerly of the "new york times." i just want to introduce and i know you'll all know her and the case, judith miller. [ applause ] >> i want to start with the end of the war, not the beginning, with lincoln's second inaugural address which is

formally of the "new york times." i just want to introduce and i know you'll all know her and the case judith miller. i want to start with the end of the war, not the beginning. with lincoln's second inaugural address which is most famous as you all know for its closing words calling for malice toward none and charity for all. the speech was only about nine minutes long, but i would venture to say it ended so memorably that people had probably forgotten the beginning of the speech. and at the beginning of that address, lincoln launched into a recollection of his first inaugural appearance. and not without a little malice of his own, at least toward some. this is what he said. while the inaugural address was being delivered four years ago, devoted altogether to saving the union without war, insurgent agents were in the city seeking to destroy it without war. both parties dep -- the other would accept war rather than let it perish. and the war came. in a way that recollection sets the stage for tonight's discussion beca

i mean there has been some conversation about you and new york times, new york magazine and other placesaying that perhaps 11 and a half years is enough, and that the commissioner has become authoritarian, that the commissioner has become a changed man, albeit they both say this and i read now from the new york magazine piece. ray kelly, has been a great police commissioner, programs the city's greatest, and this from "the new york times", kelly five, run the city longer than any other commission her, almost everything about him -- many inside and outside the force wonder the pileup of scandals and thorn tarian, authoritarian use of power have diminished his effectiveness. >> you have to look at the job anybody is doing to determine whether or not they should move on. i see myself in good health, i have tried to keep fit. i think good things are happening, crime is down to record lows. we haven't had a terrorist attack here in new york city, the department is mult multimore diverse than it has ever been. in fact the police officer rank became majority minority in 2006, and we continue th

including in new york city. the new york evening express repudiated it in a scathing editorial, we don't know what liberty has allowed free white men to discussion the proclamation. we may be locked up for all this free speech and free discussion but we lend no sanction to any negro equality. this tirade prompted one correspondent to ask the secretary of state, how is rebellion to be crushed while such insulting traitorous papers are allowed to be circulated. tens of thousands in new york stand ready to enter the principling and break the heads of the editors and only restrained by its unlawfulness and waiting for a weak government to do the needful to this them. no action was taken here. but it's fascinating to read the letters that came into the lincoln administration supporting the notion of further crackdowns. 1863 the issue came to a head in dayton, ohio, where a union general, not the most effective in history, arrested a former congressman and newspaper owner, of course, for speaking out against the draft

we have supply of power in northern new york. quebec. we have power supply in western new york. we have a tremendous need for power in downstate new york. let's connect the dots. let's connect the supply dots to the need. what eisenhower did the '50s by building an interstate system is what this energy highway can be to the next generation. if we want the state to develop and we need the jobs and we need the businesses, we're going to need the power and this is the way we're going to do it. the state can master plan a system and issue an rfp will allow private sector companies to come in to bid it and build it. we believe they will finance it over a period of time, and we believe it can generate $2 billion in from structure. >> this is no doubt a comprehensive and ambitious jobs program. $15 billion in infrastructure, $4 billion for a convention center, $2 billion for javits advance formation, $2 billion for energy highways, $1 billion for gaming $1 billion for buffalo that we believe will actually generate additional money from the private sector. a total of about $25 billion.

ella contin. >>> it all continues for the new york knicks.e'll be right back. >>> here's a look at the weather >>> here's a look at the weather in. new york 46 degrees. partly sunny, 78 in miami. 43 and sunny in chicago. cloudy, 63 in dallas. partly sunny skies, 66 in los angeles. >>> let's check your national forecast. the storm will hit parts of the midwest dropping up to 4 inches of snow. strong thunderstorms could pop up in eastern kansas. parts of the central plains and mississippi valley could see wind gusts up to 50 miles per hour. strong winds will also blow across the southwest. some topping 60 miles an hour in eastern new mexico. much of the south will be dry. >>> in sports this morning, lin sanity lives on in new york. the knicks phenom had another great game. jeremy lin reined in 28 points against the dallas mavericks. the harvard grad had five big steals and a career high 14 assists. the knicks take down the defending champs. 104-97. they ended the mavs winning streak. tight game in oklahoma city. russell west brook pours in 40.

. >>> plus, new york city speaker christine quinn is here on the day the new york giants get their we won the super bowl particularer taip parade, i don't want to hear about it rob, i'm getting teased all day. >>> iraq veterans are looking at the parade and asking why we can do this for football but not mark the end of the iraq war and welcome home the troops. so far michael bloomberg says no to that idea but the other most powerful person in new york besides mayor bloomberg is christine quinn, she says she is for this idea. christine quinn will be joining us tonight. that is all coming up over the course of the hour. >>> but first, as ed mentioned, it is elect shun night again in america. sort of. bringing you results as they come t from the republican presidential primary in missouri, and from the republican presidential caucuses in minnesota and in colorado. at this hour, polls have closed >> conservatism is alive and well in missouri and minnesota. your votes today were not just heard loud and wide across the state of missouri and minnesota, but they were heard loud and louder all

the police, the state of new york. the public defender came to me -- this is the craziest part of the situation. the public defender who is there to defend your constitutional rights -- she came in to see me with plastic cause and a surgical mask. i saw her walking around with all the rest of the brothers. i thought maybe she had something that she did not want to give us. [laughter] that is righteous. i respect that. whenever you have to do. then she got me into the interrogation room and she said to me, you say you have education. where did you go to school, high school? public-school of new york. this does that add up. i skipped two grades before college. where did you go to college? how did you pay for college? you went to grad school? how did you pay for law school? what did that have to do with my case? i was just going with the flow. finally, she said to me, it is my professional obligation to inform you -- not only as an attorney but as a registered nurse acting as a dentist -- you may have a bipolar disorder.

it's 5:00 in new york city. this is "the five." ♪ ♪ >> kimberly: our top story today, rick santorum's controversial comments about president obama and theology. mr. santorum is getting heat after he said this. >> this is what the president said. it's not about you. it's not about you. it's not about your quality of life. it's not about your job. it's about some phony ideal, some phony theology. oh, not a theology, but a different theology. >> some people thought it was questioning the president's christianity. so santorum clarified remarks. >> i was talking about the radical environmentalists. that's why i was talking about energy. the idea that man is not, is here to serve the earth. as opposed to husband that resources and be good steward of the earth. i think that is a phony ideal. i don't believe that is what we're here to do. >> kimberly: did he cross the line? did he need to clarify it? >> dana: he thought he needed to clarify it. he did a fine job. it's much ado about nothing. there has been this, there h

louis, yes, but new york, no. even though two new york city counselors have been pushing for it for weeks, the powerful speaker of the city council is for it. she explained it last night much the largest association of veterans, iraq and afghanistan veterans of america, headquartered in new york city are for it too. so far the answer is no for new york, i think that might be because of a miscommunication. new york mayor mike bloomberg has not said he's against the idea of a parade, he likes the idea but the pentagon told him not to do it. a statement from the mayor's office saying we sought the pentagon's guidance since they are the real experts and there is a question about whether a parade puts troops still in the field at risk. that struck some people including me as strange. after all, the parades to mark other wars had happened with troops still in the field somewhere. nobody thought those troops, parades put anybody at risk. after all, the st. louis parade went out without a hitch with national news coverage

read the story with a smile here in new york.smile here in new york. the new york giants are on top of the football world this morning. after a thrilling 21-17 victory in super bowl xlvi. >> it was a great game. quarterback eli manning -- >> a new orleans native. >> that's right. don't you forget it. led the big blue down the field in the closing minutes for the winning touchdown. and of course he was named super bowl mvp for the second time. pretty impressive. >> he has officially joined that elite group of quarterbacks. and let the debate begin, eli versus peyton, who's the better quarterback. very interesting debate here. lots of post-game discussion. but congrats to big blue. all right. well, it won't just be patriots fans, though, feeling the pain this morning. plenty of other people who went to super bowl parties and partied well into the morning, partying probably right now, probably wish they hadn't. >> yeah. hangovers have plagued drinkers since that first fermented beverage. but as abc's linsey davis says, she met a doc

ashley morrison here in new york.hank you for that. >>> straight ahead, your wednesday morning weather and in sport, the new york knicks and their "lin-ing" ways. rookie sensation, jeremy lin continues to amaze. "lining ways. jeremy lin continues to amaze. >>> here's a look at weather in some cities around the country today. new york, mostly cloudy, 50 degrees. miami, it's going to be sunny, 81 there. chicago under clouds, 45. dallas morning thunderstorms, 74. l.a. thunderstorms and 61. >>> time now for a check of the national forecast. rain and thunderstorms will move out of the eastern plains and into the ohio valley. tennessee and alabama. damaging thunderstorms with possible tornadoes are likely from east texas to alabama. rain and snow will fall in the southwest including southern california. the pacific northwest will have showers and the northeast will be dry. s, the new york knicks haven't yet lost when jeremy lin is in the lineup. last night in toronto, the stands were sprinkled with lin signs but jose calder

at 30 rock in new york city. president obama's budget proposal will likely never see a vote on capitol hill but it sets the stage for a fight that divided washington for years, including last year. the $3.8 trillion spending plan outlines the president's, including investments on education and infrastructure. we're calling on wealthier americans to share more of the burden. >> right now, we're scheduled to spend nearly $1 trillion more on what was intended to be a temporary tax cut for the wealthiest 2% of americans. do we want to keep the tax cuts for wealthiest americans or keep investing in everything else? education, clean energy, a strong military, care for our veterans. we can't do both. we can't afford it. some people go around and say, well, president is engaging in class warfare. that's not class warfare. that's common sense. [ applause ] that's common sense. >> the president's plan includes $4 trillion in deficit cuts over the next ten years. most coming by way of new tax revenue and savings from the wa

so it has that same kind of idea of entry into and outside of new york city.t has many symbols on top of it and throughout the facade -- symbols of new york city. you see thalf moon, which was henry hudson's ship. on the other side is a windmill, which refers to the original dutch settlers of new york. and then on the top is the great monumental sculptural element, which has three gods. >> the gods -- hercules, mercury, and minerva -- came from greek and roman mythology. they represent strength, commerce, and wisdom. even the clock is special. tiffany glass lines the numbers and the hands. >> it's very difficult to see, but when the light shines on it, it's quite beautiful and picks up in different colors. this is a really wonderful -- probably one of the most spectacular places to be in grand central and in the entire city. not very many people actually get to come up here. but what you can see from here that you can't see from down below -- first of all, you get a sense of the scale of the building, how large it really is. you get to experience the many diff

and again, this is new york avenue at florida. inbound and outbound on new york avenue, are you shut down. please follow police direction. there's a situation in annandale. braddock closed from ravensworth to ferndale street. and megan mcgrath has more. good morning. >> reporter: thanks, danella. the trouble spot is just inside the beltway. braddock road closed in both directions. you see the barricade here. police have put up hire at ravensworth road. in a nutshell, you're not going to be able to take braddock between ravensworth and ferndale street this morning. we have a utility pole that is downed. wires across the roadway here. they have folks. here's a live look from the chopper. they have crews on the scene. they've been working all night trying to get this pole and wires out of the roadway. their estimate is 7:00 this morning. that's when they hope to reopen things. right now, this is the trouble spot for folks who use braddock road to jump on to the beltway. we're hopeful that it will only be another hour, but we're going

the new york evening express punative damage da repudiated it. we may be locked up for the free speech, but we lend no sanction to any negro equality. this tirade prompted one correspondent to ask the secretary of state how is rebellion to be crushed while such insulting traitorous papers are allowed to be freely circulated among the people? tens of thousands in new york now stand ready to enter the printing establishment of several such papers and break the heads of the editors, and are only restrained by its unlawfulness and waiting for our weak and puckish government to do the needful to them. no action was taken here, but it's fascinating to read the letters that came into the lincoln administration supporting the notion of further crackdowns. the next year, 1863, the issue came to a head in dayton, ohio, where a union general, ambrose burnside, not the most effective generals in history, arrested a former congressman and newspaper owner, of course, clement vlanding ham for peeking out against the draft and had him tried. he was found guilty,

lincoln barely won in new york state. but he never interfered with the world's right to remain anti--republican and white supremacist in 1864. political wars might be ugly and divisive, but lincoln believed only civil war justified curtailment of press freedom. abraham lincoln did not seek absolute sovereignty, merely the restoration of the press status quo antebellum. and his union armies took increased control of southern territory, press censorship did not increase, it actually decreased. so i think the absence of interference in 1864 serves to vindicate or at least leaven lincoln's record. he acted only when he thought the nation was in peril, not his own political hide. he really let others take action without his direct supervision. he acted to prevent the defection of border states whose departure would have likely destroyed the country and ended any chance for reunification. he acted to prevent the disclosure of troop positions that might endanger his army by tipping off the enemy. and by the way, robert e. lee la

first digital chief executive of new york. stel me about what you're going to to be doing. >> how we get information and share information is changing. we've got a whole digital road map in place to make sure we are the number one digital city in the world. and a big part of that is industry. and all these great startups, like second market, making sure we allow them to nflourish in nw york city. >> the banking sector is under such pressure, and the revenue and tax base of the banks are not what it was. so that's a need to diversify revenue, for the city, and for the state. and so we're seeing that diversification. i want to get into what mayor bloomberg is doing with this engineering university. i think that's very exciting. lawrence, let's talk about startups first, because this is your bread and butter. you say they're making an impact on changing existing businesses. where are you seeing the most startups right now? >> all over the city. when you look back, when i started in this business 15 years ago, it was about develop

because we're in new york. because we're competing against the met.we're competing against the moma. and so that is what has pushed and really made the move of el museo forwd infar that if we'reompeti witthose great institutions, we have to showcase for the enlightenment of all our communities the best art. and in doing that, it's always dialogues. i mean, it's the curators that work at el museo who are working on this. we take enormous time, pride, of working closely with artists. and so for instance we have our biennial, and now we're going to be preparing for the next one. the biennial is the work of identifying latinos and latin americans that work within a two-three hours radius of our museum and s what th're doing, what they're creating. so our... we receive sometimes 600 files-- and it's called the selected files-- for unsolicited files, and it's wound down until the curators get a very close approach with each of the artists to nurture them. >> hinojosa: but what do you see when you kind of look into the future of, let's say, ten, 20 years fro

i'm originally from brooklyn, new york. i want to say hi to my family back in brooklyn and go big blue. >> from afghanistan. after all that he was there today, if only as a picture on his mom's poster downtown. you cannot throw a ticker-tape parade in new york city without raising a question of when the city will welcome home another group of heros, the veterans of the war in iraq. like danell willis. it looks like the giants ride today only with line after line of marching troops. we've heard talk of parades in other cities for veterans of our second war in iraq, but so far only the mighty mighty city of st. louis has thrown one. it started with two ordinary guys and a facebook page. it did not start off as an official response, but the whole city got behind it. they turnd out 100,000 people. the official response in new york has been that now is too soon. with troops like sergeant willis back from iraq but still serving in afghanistan, not now, maybe later. instead the white house is planning a gala dinner for a few hundr
