Public Affairs with Jeff Berkowitz - Col. Jill Morgenthaler Colonel Jill Morgenthaler, Illinois 6th CD Dem. candidate, on Iraq and Iran; the Economy, mortgages, (More) Colonel Jill Morgenthaler, Illinois 6th CD Dem. candidate, on Iraq and Iran; the Economy, mortgages, gas prices and oil companies; Education and charter schools; Immigration; Gays, Guns, God and Abortion.
Colonel Jill Morgenthaler, Illinois 6th CD Democratic candidate (Des Plaines), debates and discusses the issues with show host and executive legal recruiter Jeff Berkowitz.
Col. Morgenthaler spent five years in the active military (1976-81) and twenty-five years in the Army Reserves. She was activated for service in Bosnia (1996) and Iraq (2004). Jill Morgenthaler was appointed by Gov. Blagojevich to head up Illinois' Homeland Security office during 2005-07. Colonel Morgenthaler worked for fourteen years in public affairs and community outreach at Argonne National laboratory; in other jobs involving marketing in the private sector and also for the U. S. Department of Commerce.
Colonel Morgenthaler received her undergraduate degree from Penn State University, a Master's Degree in International Policy from the Monterey Institute for International Studies and a Master's in Strategic Studies from the Army War College.
The Illinois 6th CD has about 80% of its population in Northeast DuPage County and about 20% in Northwest Cook County, including the O'Hare Airport suburbs. The late Republican Cong. Henry Hyde (R-Addison) held the seat for thirty-two years before creating an open seat by not seeking re-election in 2006. Former Republican State Senator Peter Roskam (Wheaton) won the seat by only two points in a tough race in November, 2006 with Democrat Major Tammy Duckworth.
Colonel Morgenthaler lives in Des Plaines with her husband Kerry and their two kids. When she moved into her Des Plaines home in 1990, the home was in the 6th CD. In 2002, Morgenthaler was re-districted out of the 6th CD.
Topics discussed during this episode of "Public Affairs," include whether "It's the War, stupid," or It's the Economy, stupid? Why Col. Morgenthaler would knock Bush, Cheney and Roskam. Are the U. S. oil companies making above normal rates of return? is Morgenthaler supporting Hillary or Barack? Should we have a federal gasoline tax holiday this summer? Should we place a windfall profits tax on domestic oil companies? Do taxes on oil companies come from shareholders, employers and customers, or could they come from somewhere else?
Did Cong. Roskam support the Mortgage Finance bill? Should he have? Should taxpayers help those homeowners who bought more house than they could afford? Who misrepresented their financial condition when buying a home? Are homes being sold in 6th CD suburbs like Bensenville, Mt. Prospect, Des Plaines, Wheaton, Arlington Heights and Hoffman Estates or are we facing a "depression," in housing?
Is the housing crisis a part of a routine business cycle or should we blame the President, the Federal Reserve and/or the Congress for the downturn in the economy, high gas prices and declining housing prices? What is the difference between Cong. Roskam and 6th CD challenger Col. Morgenthaler on Iraq? Do we need more diplomacy to deal with winning or resolving the Iraq War? Is President Bush using Iran to "try and distract us from our economic problems?"
Is Iran "right now a real threat," to the U. S.? Can we make a reasonable estimate of how many years it will take for Iran to possess a nuclear capability? Does Col. Morgenthaler think it was a good idea for Israel to have taken out the nuclear facility that Syria was developing with the help of North Korea?
Did the Surge in Iraq work? Does Col. Morgenthaler believe in a timeline for American combat troops to be withdrawn from Iraq?
Should No Child Left Behind be mended? Ended? Charter schools expanded? School Vouchers be offered as an option to parents?
Should we ban earmarks? Does Roskam want to ban earmarks?
'Gays, Guns, God and abortion," as Howard Dean said. Should we have any governmental restrictions on abortion? Should same sex marriage be permitted? Should the feds bring back the ban on assault weapons?
Stronger border control? Northern border? Southern boarder? A fence? Better employer controls as to whom to hire? Path to Citizenship for illegal immigrants in the country? Would that be rewarding illegal behavior?
Does Col. Morgenthaler commit to discuss the issues on Public Affairs with Cong. Roskam? Would Cong. Roskam make a similar commitment? Where is Cong. Peter Roskam?

R. NIKURADZE (Georgian TV company Rustavi-2): You mentioned double standards. Would you, please, explain to me how you could send to Abkhazia Deputy Prosecutor General Kolesnikov and other senior officials contrary to international law and principles, thereby predetermining the election results in Abkhazia and evoking the anger of not only the Georgian leadership but also of the whole West? Thank you.
VLADIMIR PUTIN: You said not only the Georgian leadership but the whole West. You at once combined all the Georgian leadership with the West. Is this because it gets its salary from Soros? But I think this is not the point. The point is a desire to use some levers of power to solve the problem. If we are talking abut this, then we are against, as I have already said, this way of resolving conflict issues.
As for the trip by the officials, I will not pretend that they were there solely as private individuals. But all our actions were designed to settle the internal political conflict on that territory. At the same time, already replying to the question put by your Russian colleague, I have said and want to confirm this that for Georgia, in my view, the most important thing is that we are in favour of maintaining the territorial integrity of Georgia and we proceed from this. It is unlikely that Georgia wants an armed conflict to break out in Abkhazia. Who wants this? Is Georgia interested in this? Of course not. So, we proceed from this. The fact is not that we work against Georgia, in trying to resolve the situation there, but we work to provide conditions for solving this difficult conflict problem between Georgia and Abkhazia in the future. This is the first point.
And second point. With these actions I absolutely disagree with you here Russia in no way anticipated the results of the elections. What did our mediators between the different sides in the domestic conflict achieve? They only prevented a possible armed conflict and pooled their efforts. What is bad and what is anti-Georgian in this? I dont see anything of the kind.
V. KONDRATYEV (NTV): Vladimir Vladimirovich, I would like to go back to Russias domestic affairs. You touched upon the question of a multi-party system in Russia. In this connection I have this question to ask you. You said that you were not going to represent any party primarily as a non-partisan president. But your successor will possibly adhere to the same position. So, will not a construction created in Russia, when political parties are in fact denied the possibility to form power bodies, both presidential and governmental ones, be maintained in this way? In this connection I would like to ask you whether you have plans, in the process of the continued development of the multi-party system, to head or to join any political party? If United Russia does not satisfy you in some way, may be it would be worthwhile thinking about forming a new party under your leadership?
VLADIMIR PUTIN: Is it a proposal?
V. KONDRATYEV: It is a question.
VLADIMIR PUTIN: I believe today the president in Russia is not only the guarantor of the Constitution, but also a moderator in various disputes between parties. An institution of power, a stabilising element in the country. Therefore, I do not think it is time for the president to become a member of a party. However, I do not rule out that this may happen in the future.
As for me personally, I certainly think about different models, but have not come to a final decision yet.
Y.VOLISOVA (Seti-NN TV Company, Nizhni Novgorod): Vladimir Vladimirovich, do you not think that your latest initiatives to appoint governors and increase membership in parties somehow undermine democracy in the country and reduce peoples opportunities for participating in democratic reforms?
VLADIMIR PUTIN: As far as democracy in the country is concerned, it is well known that democracy means power for the people. Long ago it existed in ancient Rus in a direct form (both in ancient Novgorod and in Pskov). It was the so-called popular assembly, or Veche, when everyone gathered on a square and decided their key problems together. But today we cannot gather together 145 million Russians, so that he who shouts the loudest will be right. This was the case in the Novgorod Veche, but today it is impossible. (Less)
