and johnson. i appreciate the opportunity to appear before you today to describe our efforts to address the serious quality issues at mcneil consumer healthcare. i was unable because of back surgery to testify in may. i was grateful for the opportunity to meet with both the chairman and congressman issa shortly afterward. it is essential that we work closely with congress, the fda, and others to restore consumer confidence in mcneill the health-care products. i know we let the public down. we did not maintain our high quality standards. as a result, children did not have access to our important medicines. i accept full accountability for the problems at mcneil and i will take full accountability for fixing these problems. after we found a substantial quality issue at mcneil, we instituted a broad precautionary recall of all children's products manufactured in port washington. even though our medical experts and the fda believed the health risk was remote, we believed it was the right thing to do f

what does this have to do with johnson? he sat in or rather sat on the green bay diocese finance council, the body that manages its books and signs off on its lawsuit settlements. the head of the finance council on which johnson sat was auxiliary bishop robert morno who was long ago blamed for relocating feeney time after time in green bay. today in response to a news conference held by abuse victims johnson, now running for senate on the republican ticket in wisconsin, called on the diocese, quote, to provide the utmost transparency. but in january johnson testified against the bipartisan child abuse victim's bill which would have eliminated the statute of limitations preventing abuse victims from suing much later on. when you watch his testimony keep in mind that johnson was still on the finance council facing that nevada lawsuit over feeney neither of which johnson mentions. >> thank you for the opportunity to speak. my name is ron johnson. i'm a business owner in oshkosh, wisconsin. the first question i asked myself whe

thanks johnson for his contributions. although there wasn't much of a contribution, johnson gained two yards on five carries and with the redskins netting just 18 rushing yards in all as a team on sunday, something in the run game needed to change. >> we are still learning this offense, so i'm sure that eventually everything will break out on the running game and it will make the passing game more dangerous. >> running game wasn't there, but it didn't have to be. when you don't turn the football over, usually you should find a way to win the football game and unfortunately, we didn't. >> skins were off today, but donovan mcnabb spent the afternoon hosting over a thousand kids for a workout session as he continues to fight childhood obesity. donovan and teammates also on hand to coach the kids up. >> all right, after losing to west virginia on saturday, maryland football tries to rebound this weekend against florida international and if you've never heard of florida international and assumed the terps will beat them easily

johnson thought that over. later that day, he decided he was going to turn it into a chance for him to stand up and show that he was just as tough as goldwater, and that was of the real reason. it wasn't to manufacture a war, as the previous caller suggested, it was to deal with a political reality of that time, of that moment, the political reality of the only threat from goldwater, the only way he polled better than johnson was policy being tougher on foreign policy. host: joan joins us from tennessee, an independent caller. caller: i am 65 years old, and i was one of the protestors of the vietnam war, marched, but of course, with age comes wisdom, and at this point, i really appreciate what president johnson was up against. even though i did not vote for him, because i don't vote, that's not cyniyism, i did vote once for the son of nancy pelosi. i think that lyndon johnson is one of the great presidents because of what he did in passing the civil rights act. he did that, even though you knew that it would co

johnson's high speed succeeded. the bill failed and the green bay diocese asked to have the nevada suit dismissed because it exceeded the statute of limitation. they said it can go forward. we are joined by one of the people abused by the priest and it was known to the diocese when they transferred him to las vegas. thank you for your courage and joining us tonight. >> thanks for having me on. >> if we erred in summarizing the facts, please let me know and otherwise ampify what you know about what mr. johnson would have known throughout the process. >> frankly, keith, i found out about everything last night near about 10:00. i have been a huge johnson supporter since he announced his candidacy and last night i was really taken aback at his position on this. >> what was your reaction when you saw it? you described it in a political sense and how it will affect you going forward, but on a personal level to whatever degree you want to answer, how did you feel when you heard this man saying these things. as remote from

johnson studied the craft at penn state. so i figured, why not put him to the test on the spot. >> get me good, man. get me good. >> i ain't going to mess you up. >> i'm ugly enough as it is. >> johnson wants to open a studio of his own when his playing days are done and add photography. >> i want to get into that type of stuff again and kind of relax and enjoy the rest of my life. ingly wouldn't put him past it. he is a creative dude. >> but creative enough to make this face book good? >> the camera adds ten pounds. the paper is different. >> the paper thins it out. >> i said artist, not miracle worker. at redskins park, dave owens, 9news now. >> he wants to open a studio when his playing days are over, hey larry, your playing days are over, at least with the redskins, as we mentioned a moment ago. sources confirming and the redskins confirming that larry johnson has been cut as of this past hour. he had five carries in the first two games, total of two yards rushing. he had that 10-yard loss. that may have been the thing t
