Precedent. thats the anchor of the law. its a starting point. but there are instances when the court may appropriately overrule precedent after considering a lot of factors. and we talked about them. im happy to discuss them with you again if you like. but i dont want to waste your time either, so you tell me. >> so you see this as something where there was precedent -- you go back to parts of that as you discussed earlier with my colleague stays in place but overturned parts of that. austin, mc...

Deported. . this is another example of why this issue needs to be addressed. john? >> will the president hold republicans, are they going to pay a price if they vote against this bill? >> you cant go promise over an over again, since 2010 in the case of the members who have been there that long. for those who have been there that long. even the new ones. this is a major component of the last election. i think there is probably not a single republican member in itself who went out and talked abou...

Again, when you are overperforming, i think that shows a sign of optimism and confidence in the market. i think, again, i just want to make sure we are clear before we go into -- as we continue through the months, one report does not make something to base an entire record off of. but i think that we feel very good about where things are headed and the direction things are going not just in term of the indexes and the ups and downs of the market but also in terms of the number of manufacturers t...

You did write in that case, also, something that i thought showed a fair amount of reflection on the plight of the plaintiff in that case, write, quote, by all accounts, the plaintiff was a good teacher, suffering a wretched year. close quote. indicating that were aware of her plight. this is hardly the kind of statement made by a judge who was unsympathetic. this is in context the kinds of statement made by a judge who understands the deeply human context of every case. and also understands the...

I think 17 or 18 years old, 18, thank you. how does that person get put into the ninth grade? i mean, there are so many issues that come up in this case. i will leave it to the authorities. theres a lot that needs to get addressed with respect to this case in particular. >> i hear you about it being a state issue. lets talk about something though that the president has implemented and introduced. victims of crime enforcement. is that enough? >> no, no, no. its one piece. the president understand...
