[cheers] back to my family for just a second. We want jed, we want jed, we want jed. Bush i think i was talking about my mom. I kind of lost my train of thought here. [laughter] long before the world knew my parents names, i knew i was blessed to be their son. And they didnt mind it at all when i found my own path. It led from texas to miami by way of mexico. In 1971, eight years before Ronald Reagan said we should stop thinking of her neighbors as foreigners i was ahead of my time and cross the border. [laughter] [applause] across the plaza i saw a girl. , she spoke only a little english. My spanish was ok, but really not that good. With some intensive study we got that barrier out of the way in a hurry. In the short version, its been a gracious walk through the years with the former colomba garnica de gallo. [cheering] whatever else i might or might not have going for me, ive got the quiet joy of a man who can say that the most wonderful friend he has in the whole world is his own wi
Higher and how many, a lot, are lower now. At least theres some green there you take a look across the dow, pretty much everything in the red. A look across all the indexes, with that russell 2,000 thrown in as well, having another day, off more than 1 . The nasdaq, the underperformer, apple today could be playing into that, down 3 1 2 as some concerns about the new phones, the new operating system continue to swirl.

Theres a list or a plethora of bad news. This is more like a bowl ya base of bad news. This is a possibility of having the Interest Rates go up earlier than expected. Up . Yeah i have be
Some points steve and i disagree on. Ill just jump off the cliff here. I actually think we disagree quite vehemently on where the line is between permissible unilateral president ial war making and when the president has to go to congress. Its just that thats not where we are today. The reason why is because you have these two older statutes, the 2001 and the iraq statute and more importantly at the top of the program as the caller said you have no question that congress and the American People support kind of action in iraq against isis. This is not the kind of competitional controversy that would raise the fight i think we would quite happily get into if this were an academic conversation entirely because there is no dispute about the principle. What is really at issue is why were going in, what the end game is, and exactly what the terms of the authorization should be.

To accept the invitation of the Congressional Black Caucus foundation. Another privilege i had more than year ago was standing on the steps with the congressional members of cbc on the steps of the Supreme Court. They were there calling upon the court to make the right decision. That very day we were meeting in the house of representatives to dedicate the statue of rosa parks. Are strange, dedicating a statute to rosa parks, people turn out in a bipartisan way to salute her, and yet we have to appeal to the court to do the right thing. When they dont, they sing the prai

Next, the president with attorney general holder at the white house from earlier. Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States and attorney general eric holder. Hello, everybody. Please have a seat. Bobby kennedy once said, on this generation of americans falls the full burden of proving to the world that we really mean it when we say all men are created free and equal before the law. As one of the longestserving attorney generals in American History, eric holder has borne that burden. And over the summer, he came to me and he said he thought six years was a pretty good run i imagine his family agrees. Like me, eric married up. He and his wife, dr. Sharon malone, a nat
