we start our coverage tonight at the weather channel with meteorologist chris warren. hey, chris, good evening. >> reporter: good evening to you, brian. here's another look at that storm. the south in here, this is where we have that severe weather threat. the heart of the storm up here is moving into the mid-atlantic and into the northeast. this is a slow-moving storm, so it's going to spend more time over any given area, which means it's going to have the ability to dump more rain over any given spot. keep in mind here when you look at these numbers, the forecast for the next couple of days, we only need about an inch, some cases less than an inch to see more flooding. the forecast in some cases here calling for up to and even more than 3 inches of rain. brian, it looks like the worst of this is going to be happening during the day thursday, including the evening commute and into friday for the friday morning commute. >> all right, chris warren at the weather channel. chris, thanks for that. >>> one of the places already dealing with too much water where it's about t

elizabeth warren is thoughtful and shrewd and believes in the market. frankly one of the problems that we talked about this with the derivatives. what we were doing derivatives by and large is to force them into a market type operation rather than one on one private negotiation. and i find some of my friends in the business community like competition as a tech tateor support. they think it's wonder to feel watch other people engage but they have reasons why xe fission their case would be districtive. elizabeth warren believes in it. i'm very... i'm proud of dodd-frank and particularly... she came to me a couple years wag that idea and i'm honored. she did a video... >> rose: to create the bur slow in >> to create the independent video. and here's the problem. until we passed that bill, consumer protection was done as an afterthought by the control of the currency. >> rose: where was it? in the federal reserve in >> it was sped out. some was in the federal reserve, some was in the control of the currency, some of it was in the federal deposit insurance c

mr campbell japan clearly doesn't want investors to flee but do you agree with warren buffett but they should be moving towards japan. it's difficult not to agree with someone like warren buffett who of course just recently said that the declines in japan present a buying opportunity and both. the move that we saw was over done cory's often financial markets to react to situations like this and to the selling was compounded by fear of a desperate economic catastrophe which for now seemed to have possibly been avoided we're not completely out of the woods here and serve course at some. we could get a japanese stocks were way oversold them already the japanese are on a public holiday today but we expect that certainly the futures markets indicate that the mikhail will rise some three hundred fifty points from the open say over three and a half percent and it goes to show you that the reaction was overdone so of course it is correct to these levels it does present a lot of value considering where we were weeks ago and just how much has been taken off the value of stocks of. this to come o

warren christopher has died. he was president clinton's first secretary of state. he helped negotiate peace in bosnia and also the nafta trade agreement. he honed his skills spending time trying to negotiate the release of iranian hostages for president carter and then went on to lead al gore's presidential recount fight. today his successor, hillary clinton, called him a diplomat's diplomat who left america safer and the world a more peaceful place. warren christopher was 85. >>> and an honor today from one person injured in the line of duty to another. army sergeant al lee sharing a purple heart he earned in iraq with congresswoman gabrielle giffords. he presented it to her office the other day, and today, one of her staff members traveled to houston to deliver it to her at the hospital where she's still recovering. >>> tomorrow, spring arrives ushered in tonight by the biggest, brightest full moon in 18 years. we all have to go out and look. the so-called supermoon. a coincidence of two things. the moon comes closest to the earth in its egg-shaped orbit as the f

i would like to see the president appoint the next earl warren. i think janet napoltano should be elected. we think of other examples of that, but i do think -- one more fact, when the supreme court decided brown versus board of education in 1954, not one was nine justices had been a federal court appeal judge. many came from political backgrounds, people like hugo black, a senator, earl warren, a governor. all nine of the justices had been federal court appeal justices. i think we need more diversity background on the supreme court. >> citizens united, the target corporation gave a lot of money to a candidate for governor in minnesota, people protested and boycotted target. recently i've heard there's a boy cot movement towards the bank in wisconsin because governor walker received a lot of money from them. do you think the market place mitigates citizens united? >> only if there's much stronger disclosure requirements. one of the problems on the last elections is it is very easy for corporations and likely for unions to hide their contributions.

elizabeth warren deserve great credit for her leadership in the early days of this panel. we have not been perfect, however, and our oversight was always finite. so if someone asked me, what is the single most important public service we were able to provide? i believe the answer could only be one. i believe we helped to power the american public to fulfill their critical role as the true watchdogs of government. that is why we consistently called for more public data and more public transparency. we demanded more information on t.a.r.p. expenditures, mortgage modifications, bank help and lending, and other t.a.r.p. related areas. our goal was to obtain information on a systematic basis, communicated as clearly as possible. with this, people can assess what is happening today and others in the future can, with the benefit of time, truly assess what happened back in the first global financial crisis of the 21st century. so our monthly reports and hearings come to a close this month but the end of t.a.r.p. oversight does not. i would humbly encourage our skillful fell oversi

and shortly thereafter, the report given to president johnson from chief justice warren of the warren commission report on the assassination of president kennedy. all of these events show what seemed to be at the time the enormous power and influence of television in our lives. the other notable feature, i think, of chief justice warren's opinion is that of the irony that to illustrate his opinion he used pictures. a picture, after all, is worth a thousand words. and one of the pictures that he used -- i will show you at the moment -- evoked the image of this advertisement which. on november 22 -- the morning of november 22 in the dallas morning news. welcome, mr. kennedy. a broadside attack on the president and his policies and it. a full-page advertisements -- appeared as a full-page advertisement the morning of the assassination. it just so happened, perhaps a coincidence, one of the photographs the chief justice used to illustrate was a television truck in front of the court house of the september proceedings of wfaa tv, which was the broadcast affiliates of the dallas morning new
