would be popular in missouri. so i ask the missouri legislatures, i said, now, some of you have been talking about how we need to do away with the stimulus, in fact, some more friends across the aisle say, well, we should get rid of the rest of the stimulus. so i asked the state legislators, what will you cut if we pull the stimulus? tell me how missourians will be hurt if we decide to pull the rest of the stimulus and maybe spend it on other things like perhaps this emergency bill dealing with unemployment insurance? and you know they won't tell me. they want the people of missouri to think they're balancing that budget with ferry dust. they don't want the people of mo to know that -- of missouri know that in fact the stimulus is what's out there helping these states balance these budgets because their revenue has dropped off the charts. just like our revenue has, which is causing some. deficit. certainly contributing to some of the debt with an increase in unemployment expenses and then the programs that have be

transportation secretary ray lahood was in kansas city, missouri today. nevertheless, polls show many americans just don't think it's working. >> the bill still generates some controversy.... >> brown: the president today blamed negative perceptions, in part, on republicans. he ridiculed many in the g.o.p. for dismissing the effectiveness of the stimulus, even as they claim credit for its largesse. >> there are those-- let's face it-- across the aisle who have tried to score political points by attacking what we did, even as many of them show up at ribbon-cutting ceremonies for projects in their districts. ( laughter ) >> reporter: at the same time, mr. obama acknowledged many americans don't see any improvement, as unemployment hovers near double digits. >> despite the extraordinary work that has been done through the recovery act, millions of americans are still without jobs. millions more are struggling to make ends meet. so it doesn't yet feel like much of a recovery.

missouri is a great state. if this is a great country and with the right kind of leadership at the federal level or the state level there's no reason why we ought to be enduring 10% unemployment at a national level or 15% at a state level. go back to the principles that we employed back in 1994. accountability back to the american people. that's what the contract of america. i tried to get recall with the contract of america. i wish voters had the opportunity to recall their representatives and their senators. but what we did in 1995 and 1996 rkts we didn't increase spending, we didn't do a stimulus bill like that, we didn't do cap and trade, we didn't do health care or these massive government spending programs. we froze spending, we cut taxes and reformed government, we reformed welfare and did it with a republican congress and a democrat president. we were able to focus on what the american people wanted, what they needed and we had an air ave -- era of prosperity. but the formula is simple. give more money

i'd ask the senator from missouri -- ms. mccaskill: well, what i gyms a trying to ask you senator is that i don't think most americans think the senate is working very well right now. i think most americans think that we're behaving sometimes like children. i think most americans aren't really sure what the rules have and what's the difference between a cloture and a filibuster and a motion to propose and -- and a motion to proceed and a motion to commit. or all the other terms that we throw around here. but there's one thing that i think that we all need to comes to grips with. that is, if w we're going to try to stop the place, we need to be proud to own it. i think that goes on both sides of the aisle. if a senator on our side wants to hold a nomination, i don't think they should be allowed to keep it secret for 10 seconds. if somebody wants to try to hold a bill or wants to object to something, i think this nonsense that they've had in the senate for every that it's a secret for a while is the stupidest thing that i can

the senator from missouri. mr. bond: i thank the chair and all my friends for giving necessity opportunity to speak. for americans, the world changed on september 11, 2001. we learned that the cost of thousands of innocent lives that treating terrorism as a law enforcement matter won't keep americans safe. my real concern is that this administration doesn't understand that every day now is like september 12. we cannot afford to revert back to a 9/11 mentality. instead, we need to treat the terrorists as what they are: not common criminals but h enemy combatants in a war. i rise today to speak about my concerns with the current terror fighting policies of this administration and the vital importance of congressional oversight. protecting this nation from terrorist attack is our highest duty in government. and our great democracy -- in our great democracy, oversight plays a critical role in ensuring that our government protects citizens from terrorist attacks. unfortunately, some in the white house don't agree. just

the two papers were the missouri democrat and the missouri republican. those papers were sponsored and paid for and this was the beginning of the independent press movement, the notion that a newspaper by a mean other than political contributions and that represented the people. that's why we got a whole new style of journalism , the notion of objectivity, the very notion of journalism as a public service are all legacys of pulitzer. >> brown: he started in st. louis in journalism and politics as a kind of reformer. >> very much so. >> brown: very passionate about things he wanted to change at the local level. >> particularly corruption. st. louis, like most major american cities at that time, the county government was incredibly corrupt. and pulitzer saw journalism as a means to reform-- it was an extension of politics, by in a sense shining the light on the dark recesses of government and exposing what was going on was a means of reform. some of his greatest journalistics cues were muck like i.f. stone in the 1950s. all he was doing was publishing publ

jane: one last question, a story that's just breaking from senator kit bond of missouri, he says he was told that abdulmutallab was talking, but he was told not to say anything, and the white house then released that information according to kit bond. >> i think what you see here is there's been a huge letter-writing campaign, mcconnell, collins, lieberman all writing letters to the attorney general and the administration, and i think people are getting spastic about the whole thing the. my advice is take a deep breath and chill out a little bit, let's not do anything that's going to jeopardize the prosecution or intelligence-gathering efforts. jane: right. because it does feel like it's jumping the shark to become completely political, and we are, at the end of the day, talking about national security. >> exactly. and national security ought to be a bipartisan effort. we should make sure we do everything we can to protect the civilians of this country. there's a lot of finger pointing going on. jane: scott weber, thanks. >> thank you. jane. jane: jane we have pictures just in of a guy

i came back and went to school in liberty, missouri, closer to home. it turned out to have opportunities that i could not have gotten anywhere else. that is where a started playing jazz and writing criticism. i went back to illinois and i spent two years at a point in my life that i wanted to be a psychologist. that was a false thing that i was chasing. i learned a lot there. i studied statistics bear. this was the most valuable thing i had ever done. if you had studied statistics and learned about experimental design, you will never again take, at face value, what scientists tell you because you have the mental equivalent to -- mental equipment to speculate on how this was designed. you see the world in a different way. >> how long at the "kansas city star?" >> if i remember right, from 1977 to 1983? i became their second string classical student. -- classical music critic. they did not have anybody doing jazz, so far too young, i became their first string jazz critic. it was tremendously exciting. we filed the review, -- i will never forget that i di

we've got new hampshire, missouri, ohio. we've got a really wonderful race in florida and there are other states as well where we're playing offense not just defense. here is the facts. we have one more senator, democratic senator today than we had on inauguration day when president obama came into office. we have more members of the house today than we had when president obama was inaugurated. >> just as we saw in massachusetts, campaigns are not only about climate. they are also about the candidate. >> sure, absolutely. >> that's why many ways in your state, the state of virginia, the democrat that tried to succeed you, questions whether they were strong. now illinois, president barack obama's old senate seat where you have alexi giannoulias, whether that will be an easy pick up. has there been a problem with democratic recruiting. >> i'm not going to be a pessimist when we're sitting at 59 in the senate as much as we've had since 1979 and a historic majority in the house, a historic majority of governors. it's going to be

the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from missouri rise? >> request permission to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. >> thank you, mr. speaker. for more than a year the people back home in the ninth district of missouri have expressed their anger about the way our government and this administration are spending their hard-earned money. they are angrier today after learning that the next proposed budget comes in at a whopping $3.8 trillion with a record deficit of

the presiding officer: the senator from missouri is recognized. mr. bond: i thank the distinguished chair. today i rise to shed some light on the situation going on at the general services administration, the g.s.a., a tangled mess of bureaucracy i have been fighting for the last five years. in the past, i've worked very cooperatively with g.s.a., but for some reason, somehow they have gotten themselves and us in a situation that is untenable. yesterday, the president accused me of holding the nominee to be administrator, martha johnson, hostage. i feel no joy in holding up this nominee, but the hostage i am concerned about is not the one looking for this distinguished position in washington. instead, the hostages i am worried about are the 1,000 people working in a federal office building dump in kansas city, at the mercy of an agency that refuses to act to remedy a problem they acknowledge exists. again, the hostage, with due respect, is not martha johnson, the hostages are the 1,000 kansas city workers at the banister complex. now, as senators, we

host: missouri, barbara on our democrat izz line. caller: good morning. i have basically two things i would like to comment on. one is this promoted notion that the people who defautted on their mortgages are these unworthy people who got in over their heads to begin with. and my question is, inside of all of these millions of people who have lost their jobs, identify never heard anybody talk about the people who default on their loans are people who look fine until they lost their jobs. i would like to know what percent of the people who have defaultted on loans are truly these so-called unworthy people who shouldn't have gotten their loans in the first place. and in addition, i'd like you to comment on the notion of these eekt -- equity lines of credit. i work in a banks and we've been selling lines of credit that people get the money based on their homes. there's no income involved. thank you. guest: so the first question was about defaults and the extent to which this is really due to economic circumstances, the environment, and i don't have an exact

charles from sales, missouri. go ahead with your question for our guest. call code good evening, gentlemen. this has been alluded to before and as long as we throw money at and ew government, iraq and afghanistan, once we throw money at them they're going to go back to the tribal affairs or whatever and here we are -- we wasted all this money. it started during the bush administration. and worse all the persons that have been killed and wounded -- now that's really terrible. just remember and i think one of you alluded to this before. once we leave they're going to go back to the same old same old. and i would like tower -- your comments and good health to you. >> that's a good question and a good comment. if you look at the last 100 years in afghanistan, there are and have been stable periods. so part of the question for the united states, for nato countries operating in afghanistan and for the afghan government more broadly is to find ways, as has been done in afghanistan's history of ensuring long-term stability. what i'd note in the pastun areas of the

the storm itself is located in two pieces, one be headed through missouri. and the dominant storm now developing in northern florida and southern georgia, as the moisture spreads up the coast. expected snowfall totals, very significant, right from virginia, west virginia, maryland, delaware and southern jersey. why isn't this storm heading up to new york city, hartford, boston, providence? there's this huge ocean storm, a blocking storm. this looks like a hurricane in the north atlantic. it's not going to allow the storm that's coming off the mid atlantic coast to head northward. this storm will push it out to sea. that's why, contessa, areas to the north get spared but not areas in the mid atlantic. it's very rare. >> you're keeping a close eye on that. we'll check back in with you during the day. >>> john edwards' sex scandal a judge has found edwards' former aide andrew young in contempt of court over a sex tape. superior court judge is demanding young return that tape to edwards' former mistress, rielle hunter. hunter sued young, asking that he return th

he asks to offer the vice presidency and private to a senator from missouri named stuart simonton. simon didn't accept, but the courts made public jack kennedy will start rolling and says no, i really showed us the courtesy offer this to lyndon. he's not going to take it. [laughter] key senate majority leader. he lives for power. he's not going to be vice president. this is -- you know, john bamberger who was from texas and was about vice president said vice presidency isn't worth a bucket of warm spit. and lyndon johnson certainly knew that when a cell at the reality for her. so when jack kennedy struggles down the stairs to lyndon johnson's sweet in the middle of the night to offer him the vice presidency, he was quite shocked when lyndon johnson except that. and everybody is shocked and everybody is upset on all sides of the democratic spec term. robert kennedy, who is always hated lyndon johnson and vice versa is outraged. kenny o'donnell, would've jack kennedy kennedy's closest advisers says, he betrayed every single person that has supported you in your first move of the nomi

kansas city missouri. >> caller: thank you for taking my call. i love watching booktv. i watch all weekend. i tried to read adam smith at do times. i was on a will, i don't want to see comprehend but it appears some of the undermining in this book is the consumer it's almost consumer driven market as it should be, the merchant should tailor their products so the consumer can buy and which would help the economy as far as the government to bailing out the banks and did not being consumer driven. i curious how the underlying doctrines and adam smith's book would actually see the results of that. >> guest: smith talks about the natural tendency of producers, people in business to gather together to try to exploit consumers and he's all competition as a great way of preventing that and he also saw the world of commerce as a way of enhancing the virtues that by as you said earlier cough making sure you provided for people like you have to put yourself in the shoes of consumer and figure out what the consumer wanted and that force is extremely important in smith and missing f

transportation secretary ray lahood was in kansas city, missouri today. nevertheless, polls show many americans just don't think it's working. >> the bill still generates some controversy.... >> brown: the president today blamed negative perceptions, in part, on republicans. he ridiculed many in the g.o.p. for dismissing the effectiveness of the stimulus, even as they claim credit for its largesse. >> there are those-- let's face it-- across the aisle who have tried to score political points by attacking what we did, even as many of them show up at ribbon-cutting ceremonies for projects in their districts. ( laughter ) >> reporter: at the same time, mr. obama acknowledged many americans don't see any improvement, as unemployment hovers near double digits. >> despite the extraordinary work that has been done through the recovery act, millions of americans are still without jobs. millions more are struggling to make ends meet. so it doesn't yet feel like much of a recovery. >> brown: the senate minority leader hit that point in a statement lambasting the st
