Since the congress eliminated earmarks on special projects projects that are essential to being authorized and approved come back to allowing those type of endeavors . I think that what happened with the earmark debate is it got out of hand numerically and they got out of and in substance, board it really is traditionally when shuster held the gave...

Thats a long story. Thats not something you can just blow off in a week. Come to find out what that means, and so long story short they got me into walter reed and the kind of came and went for years really trying to kill those stories of wounded warriors. What they were suffering, having performed their duty in our names or a war that was hateful. Thats an interesting balancing act because i try to keep both things alive in a script at the same time. A lot of the best cartooning is investigativ...

World is because the fcc was relatively retrained in 2010 compared to what it did now. Time will tell. The best example is europe where europeans have significantly less access to high speed broad band than we do. 82 of americans it only 48 of europeans. And when it comes to wireless in particular, the u. S. Has 50 of the worlds 4g lte subscribers. The reason is because till february 26th, we were relatively retrained and a bipartisan consensus that served so well since the clinton administratio...

When i was in seoul and tokyo and when i was in different cities in china, they were all asking how can we get more diversity . They realize this is important for competition in the Global Economy today. We cant afford a conversation that is backwards, saying how do we keep these people in the fringes. Because they are going to be there. We need to embrace that and see our populations continue to grow in the u. S. Two final things and then bring in the audience. First you mentioned the importanc...

What were they doing in. They were investigating me. You know i thought i told them, i clearly thought it was a sham. And i expressed that to them on multiple occasions during the investigation. I mean one of the most interesting questions the question they wanted asked or answered the most dealt with the fact i identified a vehicle driving a government vehicle driving at friday night at 8 30 in the evening after i left the office at 8 30 didnt have any taillights on it at all. I stopped that ve...

Not capable of cordiality. On the confederate side we have only one man with lee, charles marshall. [applause] there are not as many confederates who bear witness and he will be prolific and writing about the surrender scene after the war. One of the challenges of recreating this moment down to the challenge of figuring out who was in the room and what they were thinking was partially the fact that grant wrote that famous memoir of 1885 and he tells us in the memoir how he felt at that moment. L...

Famous memoir of 1885 and he tells us in the memoir how he felt at that moment. Leave it not need such a story. He lived for only another five years after the surrender.

I will conclude by saying that in the immediate aftermath lee was a very controversial figure. Host dr. Blight thank you so much john. Thank you all for coming this afternoon. You are the loyal diehards. You ...
