Commend you for is your work to try to help save money. Everybody knows that the government needs money to provide services. But of late, we are trying to make sure that every task of government is completed more efficiently and more effectively than it has been before. Money is limited. And you are to be commended for the work that you have done to try to save the taxpayers dollars. I notice that your request this year, 88. 2 is almost a million less than you requested last year, and i can tell you, fellow members up here dont see that happen very often when an agency comes in and asks for less money than they received the year before. We thank you for that. I know you done some Cost Containment initiatives dealing with technology and personnel and it has paid off. I know there is small increases that are inflationary themselves. So we look forward to hearing from you about the resources that you need, and any other comments you might have about the judiciary . General and we will ple

Could you get that pretty quickly . , we will try to provide a written assessment of that. If in fact enrichment of uranium spread throughout the , would you agree that that would be a very bad scenario for the National Security of the United States and israel if nations throughout the mid east turned to enriching uranium .

Talking hunter, republican from california. You set them back a decade or 2 or three. Hi, janet. Caller good morning. I just cant understand some of these people. It seems like they are just lying. They cant to see that obama is trying to run this country and that is what he said when he got in there to start with. He would change america. I just cant believe that people can see through this man. I am just so disgusted i could go talk in our myself talk an hour myself. I think you listen better than anyone. I appreciate you. Host richard in ohio. Hi, richard. Caller hi, greta. You there . Host yeah, we are listing. Caller i think john boehner did a good job on that.
