house democrat carolyn mccarthy wants to reinstate a ban on high-capacity magazines. police say this is the type of clip the gunman allegedly used to kill six people and injure 14 others including congresswomen gabrielle giffords. high-capacity ammunition clips which can hold more than 30 bullets were outlawed 16 years ago under the federal assault weapons ban. but that law expired in 2004. gun control proponents are rallying behind mccarthy's amendment as well as one offered by new york republican peter king that would outlaw weapons within 1,000 feet of federal officials, but king's own party leaders are not backing his plan. a new poll finds 47% of americans now support stricter gun laws, up from 40% last year, but way, way down from almost 80% 20 years ago. >> we need to take steps to protect people in our society. i believe the steps we need to take should apply to everyone. we shouldn't have a gun-free zone just for congressmembers or elected officials. we should have a gun-free zone for everyone. so i'm supporting congresswoman mccarthy's effort to ban these hi

majority leader and kevin mccarthy as majority whip. what challenges does he face from his own party? >> i'd think it is hugely exaggerated in the end, the debt limit is going to be lifted. the only question is what is going to be offered in return. boehner is not a fool. they will look at anything sober and reasonable that can be agreed upon. i am not worried about that. i think what you are going to see in this house is a talented team of young leaders like paul ryan, the head of the budget committee, who are going to impress on policy, not necessarily as politicians, but extremely impressive on policy. it is going to be a serious republican house. >> you are talking about backtracking. >> john bidder is a grown-up, a legislator, whose job iso -- john boehner is a grown-up and legislator, whose job is to get the job done.

you saw nothing of kevin mccarthy, the majority whip on purpose. this was a strategic effort on their part to be humble in the approach of power but also try and manage expectations not only externaly but internally. boehner, canter and mccarthy sevened in state slurs. they know the game and -- legislatures. they know the game and how eager the house republican freshmen are so they have to model late their appearances, their tone and try to keep the tea party inspired house republicans from overtaking the agenda. it's a very difficult thing to maneuver through. >> gwen: john, i was struck by nancy pelosi's speech in handing over the gavel where she basically said the democrats were right, even though we lost. how much different is his little going to be from hers? >> major talked about the differences between newt beginning rich and boehner. gingrich said 6,000 words in 1995. boehner about 1,300, only 30 more than nancy pelosi. in 2007 when she came in she had movie stars richard gere in the speaker's box. boehner had the boehners, the family. boeh

we talked about mccarthy. and i was taken along to a lot of civic situations and public situations where the issue of freedom of speech and the first amendment were--were predominant and very much talked about in my home. so i was raised in that environment. and that instilled in you a social conscience where you felt you could make a difference? well, i think my father really felt that one person could make a difference. he was an amazing man. i always spend a moment to talk about him, because he was blind from the age of four, and he went on to graduate summa cum laude from the university of idaho in moscow. he became a pianist and entertainer, had a wonderful career in music, but also was a-- a sort of a bit of a philosopher and loved good poetry and wrote good songs and talked to us-- all of us-- all five of us-- talked to us about life and about commitment and about the feeling that he had that one person can make a difference and does make a difference. so i was weaned on that. it was something that i al

mccarthy. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. mccarthy: thank you, madam speaker, for yielding. we are debating a rules package. why do we need to ha a rules package? because structure dictates behavior. for america, we know far too long that the structure of this house was dictating a behavior that the american public did not care for nor did they want. they watched for too long bills written by a few, come to the floor where members had not even read it, the public had not been able to see it and a debate and a vote had been passed. we've watched where we didn't even have a open rule, not one freshman in this building who became a sophomore ever saw a rule. today is a new day. today is a new opportunity. now, what went into the rules package and how did you come about crafting it and creating it? well, it wasn't crafted today and it wasn't crafted with one side of the aisle. we reached out to both sides but we reached beyon this house. we reached where this house was supposed to go, to the people. last fall our nespeaker boehne

so i said, i am going to try something, so it wasn't in the script or the book, beautiful novel by mccarthy. i gave my character a son that he was looking for on the road that he couldn't find and wondered where he was, he was looking for his son. and i improvised that, that scene as the camera rolled talking about my son and it gave me something very emotional, and a great inner thing which worked and everybody seemed to -- >> rose: but you said so viggo i am going to do this. >> i said hold on i am going to do something here. i didn't quite know -- >> and when they looked at it they liked it. >> they liked it a lot and i guess mccarthy liked it open okay because they didn't take it out, i thought now i gave them a son i should have given him a grandson. >> mccarthy must have loved you you never had a conversation with him? >> i met him -- i met him way back here is a guy that writes about, like in argentina he writes about strients, a middle class guy, great dark scenes and i met him in some of these backyards playing croquette. >> rose: croquette? >> unbelievable. and the only time i met

i was joined by former senator eugene mccarthy who had challenged lyndon johnson for reelection and a significant initial campaign to close lyndon johnson to drop out of the race. was also another coat plaintiff, new york civil liberties union, new york conservative party, stewart mosque had contributed $220,000 to the eugene mccarthy campaign. what was the common element of these groups? they were outside the normal. they were outside the norm of the political establishment. it was our concern that this lot was kept intact. it would squeeze out the ability of challengers to come in and confront the political establishment. we won on one side and other limitations on what could be spent in any campaign. we lost the individual contributions because the supreme court said that the appearance or fact of corruption supported this restraint but the effect has been to consolidate the power of the establishment, especially incumbents who have extraordinary advantages over challengers to elevates into important factors in the election and far more likely to corrupt individuals. and to discour

. >>> representative carolyn mccarthy plans to introduce a bill this week to band h igh- capacity ammunition clips. but while some are planning new gun control legislation. other lawmakers say they will be exercising their second amendment rights and carrying weapons. you can go to the channel 2 website for more on the s hootings in arizona and for more on give itereds' condition and the -- giffords' condition. go to ktvu.com. >>> just in -- governor jerry brown issued an order to collect $48,000 -- 48,000 cell phones from state employees by j une 1st. the state currently pays for 96,000 cell phones and the governor says cutting -- cutting that number in half will save the state $20 million a year. he wants to reduce cell phone use by those with phones and is asking every department and agency to examine and justify all cell phone use. brown is also working on a plan to reduce the number of s tate- issued vehicles as well. it is now official the word came from verizon that they will carry the iphone. while the excitement has been building for quite some time. there's still many questions and

the liberal establishment, by the end of the mccarthy period was the craven in its embrace of the cold war politics graduate institutions like the aclu carrying out an internal times for people who are either pink or red. and, of course, the people carrying out those funds were the most craven careerists, the people with the least moral center, the least moral -- the capacity to say no. so that not only did we decimate radical progressive popular movements, but at the same time we destroyed the core of liberal institution as well. and this coincided with the rise of the corporate state. it saw probably the last great champion in this country, and we will rue the day that we walked out on this guy. it was ralph nader. [applause] >> who pushed one piece of great legislation after another. ralph was a good friend of mine, always as you know, the last liberal president we had was richard nixon. [laughter] >> no, in terms of legislation, that's true. osha, the clean water act, the mine safety act are some 24 pieces of legislation because nixon was still scared of movements, and responded to

[ laughter ] >> you laugh, but yes, it was -- it was -- well, at the time it wasn't weird, because it was what it was. >> jimmy: sure. >> but then in my '20s, it was "whoa."

[ laughter ] he had a little desk and a little chair, and it had charlie mccarthy on the desk, a little nameplate. then once at breakfast, he would put charlie on one knee, cause he would manipulate his mouth through his back and then he would sit me on the other knee, i was very little then, and he would squeeze my neck, and that was my signal to move my mouth. and he would have us talking to each other. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that is awesome. that's how you got the

this is being sponsored by new york representative carolyn mccarthy, who, by the way, her husband was murdered by a gunman who was using one of those types of magazines. they were banned for a decade in this country. now very few states in the united states ban those magazines. also today, we know that the white house is going to be sponsoring a state dinner for china's president hu jintao that arrives later today trying to mend relations between the two countries. john boehner has said he will not attend. >> tracie potts in washington. thanks so much. >>> well, americans appear to be satisfied with how president obama handled the shooting in tucson. a new washington post-abc news poll shows nearly eight in ten gave him high marks for his response to the incident. that positive assessment spanned across the political spectrum. with 7 1% of republicans approving of his leadership following the tragedy. a majority, 57%, said they support a nationwide ban on the type of high capacity magazine clip used in tucson. the incident did not, however, change support for tougher gun control measu

which is critical for joe mccarthy. my father had no use for him. he called him a vulgar demagogue. and being anti-communist at the time caused a huge upright. so i think he was able to pause it up. the first essays are very, very young. they are at war, the kind of what you'd expect for someone in the '20s with a partisan review style. very serious about thrilling and the simone the great italian author. you see the spark. grandfather -- >> host: the tone was more conversational. >> guest: the longer ones and commentary and "public interest" and elsewhere. you were one the few people that could full it off of first person conversation, and quite serious discussion of books, issues, questions, usually one has one or the other. the questions and concerns. you are a light harded first person. he was able to pull those together in the present way. >> host: now let's talk about neoconservative. you may not want to draw. which is between the nigh -- neoconservative, and other conservative. what was mainstream and probably st

one of the more moving speeches on president house floor came from carolyn mccarthy, a congressman from new york who was elected after her husband was assassinated -- not assassinated, but he was shot to death on a subway train in new york the but she spoke about the very personal aspect of the tragedy rather than advocating for gun control. i was very struck by that. ? the bill that she'll introduce tuesday would revive in a more concentrated way that -- a provision that was actual fly place for 10 years. it would outlaw the sale of high capacity magazines -- gwen: that's the thing he had. >> and when he was changing magazines, the people tackled him. he walked in with 30-plus rounds in that glock 9 and when he ran out, he was reloading. gwen: and mental health care? no discussion about that really? or just does talking about that almost gifblet alleged shooter a defense, an insanity defense? >> well, it's so hard to know what are the solutions to that problem. there were so many yellow lights if not red lights about him, and yet he was still able to buy -- buy a hand gun, a powerful g

. >> he has eric cantor as majority leader and kevin mccarthy as majority whip. what challenges does he face from his own party? >> i'd think it is hugely exaggerated in the end, the debt limit is going to be lifted. the only question is what is going to be offered in return. boehner is not a fool. they will look at anything sober and reasonable that can be agreed upon. i am not worried about that. i think what you are going to see in this house is a talented team of young leaders like paul ryan, the head of the budget committee, who are going to impress on policy, not necessarily as politicians, but extremely impressive on policy. it is going to be a serious republican house. >> you are talking about backtracking. >> john bidder is a grown-up, a legislator, whose job is to -- john boehner is a grown-up and legislator, whose job is to get the job done. that is where he will have trouble in his caucus. there are enough true believers to stop the raising of the debt ceiling. pauperize is considered collaboration, collaboration is the -- compromise is considered col

i had been one of the mccarthy kids as we called ourselves. who was already feeling very engaged politically. i was working -- i did work on the mccarthy campaign in high school, which as we know didn't get very far but it did organize this children's crusade of flower power and all so that i was already thinking in the context of the civil rights movement. i was a bit too young to have seen the high points of that firsthand in a conscious way. but i vaguely knew about it. one of my first rabbis was somebody who had supported king and had attacked to us about social justice. so i had grown up with that. very much as part of my life. my parents supported civil rights. so that part was part of it and then when it came to vietnam, as soon as i got to santa barbara, i was originally going to go to berkeley i ended up at santa barbara because of a bureaucratic snafu. and once i was given the chance to go back to berkeley, i thought you know what? i'm already thinking about this i'm just a going to stay here and do it. i think it might have been ver

meantime, senators lautenberg and mccarthy are introducing a bill and that might move. laute and mccarthy are introducing a bill and that might move. >> you don't really expect much traction here? it's not the normal enthusiasm i would expect from you on this issue. >> well, look, twofold. first, we want to be civil in the debate. so, we're making every effort here. second, and respecting somebody's views who are different than ours. second, look, let's be honest here. there haven't been the votes in the congress for gun control. we've had some victories, mental illness bill that i mentioned. there was a proposal by senator soon that said if you had a concealed carry permit in one state, you could walk into another state. so, laws like arizona, someone could buy one there and come into new york and not even notify the police. that was defeated. make no mistake about it, the changes are hard. senator feinstein tried to bring the assault weapons ban back on the floor and it didn't pass. we're looking for things where we can maybe find some common ground and get something

commentary on mccarthy and liberals which is very critical of joe mccarthy. he calls in just a vulgar demagogue and someone who might damage the anti-communist cause but the liberals that were willing to be forthright and being anti-communist at the time causes huge uproar in what appeared in commentaries. the first essay when he is very young are little more that kind of someone in his 20s riding in a partisan style, pretty serious about truly and the grated tie-in novelists, but you see the spark for the young i think of this with. >> host: of the tone is more conversational ice today. the short ones in the wall street journal and the longer once. i think this is pretty unusual of first-person conversation and then quite serious discussion of hooks, issues, questions, usually has one or the other. you have questions you discuss earnestly or a lighthearted conversationalist but he was able to put those together in an impressive way thing. >> host: was talk more about new conservatism and that might want to draw a few things which you might not want to draw w

caller: i have to address congresswomen mccarthy's statement. coming from new york where we no crime is very prominent, instead of working federal legislation perhaps she needs to work on more local legislation and new york legislation to try to help new york individuals introduce legislation to protect us. in regards to restricting gun use, i think that is something that is granted to as fundamentally by the constitution as many of the other callers are stating, but i think we really have to find other ways to address this. i think that the one provided a measure shoestring to introduce by restricting the ban on guns will really not the best of the right direction. as another calller mentioned if people want to get guns, they will find a way to get them. in i see a lot of other crimes in new york such as drugs, and of course that is illegal but you do not see people stopping to address this issue. i absolutely -- i am not sure what to think about members of congress opposing legislation against bands of threat. one of the fundamental rights is

i would like to introduce ryan mccarthy, the program director at that site. i know it does not look like it, but he speaks mandarin. [laughter] so, you know, that helps, but also, we have done a lot of work to engage the local immigrant communities. as you say, that is a huge proportion of the families that we serve across all of our programs. we have other stuff that's historic we have been bilingual. we no longer have you currently because of a lack of funding, but we had computer glasses in cantonese for adults. we also conducted our community advisory council meetings in the past by a length lead. having a parent there to translate for other parents, and she has been working with us to do so. we do a lot of surveys, outreach, and daily communication. ryan being on-site assists with that direct interaction. i do not know if there is a specific program he would like to hear more about, but one example also is we have -- we are not funded to serve use under 5 currently, but in the morning, we partner with the sunset family resource collaborative, the early l
