1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,400
The old Europe.
2
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:05,600
Your father went to the U.N.,
Mr. President...
3
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:09,300
...and it took him six months, as I
remember, but he got his resolution.
4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:10,600
And he got Congress too.
5
00:00:10,700 --> 00:00:13,800
My gosh, Colin, you're the finest
military man in this room...
6
00:00:13,900 --> 00:00:15,200
...we all know that.
7
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:18,300
But don't you think the Gulf War
days are long gone?
8
00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:22,600
Do we really need six months
and half a million men...
9
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,000
...to knock off a tin-pot dictator
with a ragtag army?
10
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,800
You're right, Don,
I am a military man.
11
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,500
And you
more than anyone in this room...
12
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,500
...learned the lessons of Vietnam.
13
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,300
Now, I think we're all adults
in this room...
14
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,500
...and we recognize that 9l11,
no matter how horrific it was...
15
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:45,600
...and it was...
16
00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:49,700
...was also an opportunity this time
for us to get it right.
17
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:53,100
Drain the swamp.
18
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:58,100
Sweep up all the bad guys
in one big move.
19
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:00,200
Things related and not.
20
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,500
Otherwise, sir, they will be back.
21
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:05,400
I thought we just did that
in Afghanistan.
22
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,500
We keep the focus
on sweeping up Bin Laden.
23
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:11,900
Goodness gracious, if you want
to call Afghanistan a war, Colin.
24
00:01:11,900 --> 00:01:15,000
You know there were no real targets
to bomb there.
25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,900
- It was an exercise.
- In any case...
26
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,500
...if we don't act,
all of us will be out of here in 2004.
27
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,200
And that's the bottom line.
28
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:25,100
So this is all about politics, Karl?
29
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,700
I'm confused
as to what you're doing in this room.
30
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,400
Okay, let's stay on message here.
31
00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:32,400
Look, Genius Boy is just here
to listen, not talk.
32
00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:34,200
You see, sir...
33
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,100
...what I'm pressing for here...
34
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,800
...is why?
35
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,600
Why are we doing this?
36
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,500
Why Iraq?
37
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,100
- Why now?
- We discussed that already, Colin.
38
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,000
We had America
protected September 11 th.
39
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:52,900
That is, if people had been
doing their jobs right.
40
00:01:52,900 --> 00:01:54,600
But we blew it.
41
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:58,700
And now instead of taking down
these 10,000 al Qaeda lunatics...
42
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,100
...in the mountains
with special operations...
43
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,300
...we're way outside of the box
on this thing.
44
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,100
Why aren't we trusting the system?
45
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,800
Why have we veered off
to this place...
46
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:12,400
...where we accept without debate
that a preemptive strike on Iraq...
47
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:14,900
...can defeat terrorism
better than police action...
48
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000
...or intel agencies
that share information?
49
00:02:17,100 --> 00:02:20,600
I just don't get it, Mr. President,
I don't. Because I am a soldier.
50
00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:25,100
And I'd be mighty sure before
I put young American lives at risk.
51
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,300
- Here we are...
- Okay, Secretary Powell, come on.
52
00:02:28,300 --> 00:02:30,800
Let me finish.
53
00:02:33,100 --> 00:02:34,800
Here we are...
54
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:38,100
...changing the whole way
we do business...
55
00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:43,200
...in response to a small but dedicated
enemy hiding out in caves and jungles.
56
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,300
- Are we losing our perspective here?
- We changed our perspective.
57
00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:51,600
The Trade Center was bombed in '93.
58
00:02:51,700 --> 00:02:54,300
We had a huge attack
on Oklahoma in '95.
59
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,500
And those who did it
are in jail or dead.
60
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,100
Big difference.
61
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:04,600
Oklahoma terrorists
didn't have anthrax or nukes.
62
00:03:05,100 --> 00:03:06,200
Colin...
63
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,400
...I swear, you're beginning
to sound like Neville Chamberlain.
64
00:03:09,500 --> 00:03:11,500
Oh, don't patronize me,
Mr. Five Deferments.
65
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,300
You save that for speeches
to veterans. Neville Chamberlain.
66
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,900
You think, really...
67
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:19,500
You think,
with all your diplomatic bullshit...
68
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:24,400
...that you can appease Islamic
fascists, who are as nuts as Hitler.
69
00:03:26,100 --> 00:03:28,700
You wanna know what I see,
Mr. President?
70
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,800
I see a world
where in about 25 years...
71
00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:34,300
...America's reserves are gone.
72
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:36,500
Done.
73
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,700
Demand is up...
74
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,200
...30, 40 percent.
75
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,900
And we have two oceans
blocking us from the world reserves.
76
00:03:44,900 --> 00:03:47,700
You think we're gonna
have allies then?
77
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,100
We're at 5 percent
of the world's population.
78
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,600
We use 25 percent of its energy.
79
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,100
You think Russia and China
are gonna help us out...
80
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,500
...when they need
those resources themselves?
81
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:04,200
Eighty percent of the world's
future energy reserves...
82
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,900
...are right here in Eurasia,
where the prize ultimately lies.
83
00:04:08,900 --> 00:04:11,900
Oil, gas, water.
84
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,100
Iraq alone,
10 percent of the world's reserves...
85
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,500
...60 of 80 oil fields
are still undeveloped.
86
00:04:20,500 --> 00:04:23,500
And probably another 100 billion
gallons in their western desert.
87
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,000
- They are floating in a sea of oil.
- We have bases...
88
00:04:26,100 --> 00:04:28,900
...in more than 120 countries
all over the world.
89
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,500
If we include Iraq,
look what happens.
90
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,400
We are at the fertile
choke point of civilization.
91
00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:41,900
The Tigris-Euphrates,
the biblical cradle.
92
00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:44,900
We drain this swamp, like Don says.
93
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,200
We rebuild it.
94
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,600
We develop its resources
to the maximum.
95
00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:50,600
They own it, we run it.
96
00:04:50,700 --> 00:04:54,200
Pipelines, sea lanes, their resources
finance the reconstruction.
97
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:57,700
A nexus of power that won't be broken
in our lifetime.
98
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:00,200
If we stick to the plan.
99
00:05:00,700 --> 00:05:04,400
So, what is our real exit strategy
on Iraq, Dick?
100
00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:12,100
There is no exit.
101
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,800
We stay.
102
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,500
Spoken like a true oilman.
103
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,000
You were part of the plan, Colin,
back in the '90s.
104
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,300
You backed our dominance in
weaponry, space, cyber, electronic.
105
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,200
You agreed
that we would never allow...
106
00:05:33,300 --> 00:05:36,100
...another military-economic rival
to emerge against us again.
107
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,300
- I don't understand...
- Turning weapons loose...
108
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,500
...on terrorists is like trying to hit
an ant with an elephant gun.
109
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,300
We invoke preemption...
Preventive war, you call it.
110
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:46,200
The right to use nukes
whenever we see fit.
111
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,100
- and I guarantee you, Paul,
we will be in a forever war everywhere.
112
00:05:50,100 --> 00:05:52,400
Three, four wars at a time.
113
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:55,400
That's not new world order,
that's a world gone mad.
114
00:05:55,700 --> 00:05:58,200
There's got to be some
global cooperation here.
115
00:05:58,300 --> 00:06:00,600
No one's against cooperation,
Colin, you know that.
116
00:06:01,100 --> 00:06:04,600
- As long as we're calling the shots.
- Which gets us back to reality.
117
00:06:04,700 --> 00:06:06,600
Lest we forget...
118
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:09,900
...where do you see
a lack of American presence?
119
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:11,600
Right in the heart of it all.
120
00:06:11,700 --> 00:06:13,200
What's missing?
121
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,400
Iran.
122
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:18,600
The mother lode.
123
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,700
Third largest oil reserve in the world.
124
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,800
Forty percent of the world's oil...
125
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:28,000
...goes right through here,
the Strait of Hormuz.
126
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:32,200
Control Iran, control Eurasia,
control the world.
127
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,000
Empire.
128
00:06:35,900 --> 00:06:38,100
Real empire.
129
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,200
Nobody will fuck with us again.
130
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,500
It's big, Vice.
You know, big thoughts.
131
00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:55,500
But you go out here and you
scare people when you talk like that.
132
00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:57,400
The working Joe's
not thinking about oil.
133
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:00,900
We're talking 9l11 terrorists...
134
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,600
...WMDs.
135
00:07:02,700 --> 00:07:05,900
We're talking
freedom and democracy.
136
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,200
We're talking Axis of Evil.
137
00:07:08,300 --> 00:07:09,800
Sir...
138
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,800
...you have the touch, not I.
139
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,400
You know,
when I was coming up...
140
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:22,500
...it was a dangerous world.
141
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:25,800
But we knew exactly
who the "they" were.
142
00:07:25,900 --> 00:07:30,100
We knew it was us versus them,
and it was clear who "them" was.
143
00:07:30,100 --> 00:07:31,700
Today...
144
00:07:31,900 --> 00:07:35,500
...we're not so sure who the "they" are,
but we know they're there.
145
00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:38,100
Now, I'm not gonna
negotiate with myself.
146
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,100
I'm a gut player, always have been.
147
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,000
And I am just so bone-tired
of this Saddam.
148
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:45,200
He's always
misunderestimated me.
149
00:07:45,300 --> 00:07:47,800
I don't want our soldiers
invading in that desert heat.
150
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:50,600
We have got to get this war
going before summer, Rummy.
151
00:07:50,700 --> 00:07:54,300
You say go now, sir, and Tommy
can start mobilizing normally.
152
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:56,600
We could have 300,000 troops
in the Gulf...
153
00:07:56,700 --> 00:07:59,300
...by early January
without creating a stir.
154
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,400
I want you to keep
a tight lid on it, Rummy.
155
00:08:01,500 --> 00:08:04,500
For the record, this is against
the spirit of the U.N. resolution.
156
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,500
We agreed with our allies
to let the inspectors do their jobs.
157
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:10,800
As Yogi Berra said,
"D�j� vu all over again."
158
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:14,100
Colin, you know what a burn card is?
159
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,500
No, sir.
160
00:08:15,700 --> 00:08:18,800
Someday I gotta teach you
how to play some Texas Hold 'Em.
161
00:08:18,900 --> 00:08:20,900
You keep selling our friends
at the U. N...
162
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,700
...but whatever they say, in the end,
the final decision is mine.
163
00:08:24,700 --> 00:08:26,300
Yes, sir.
164
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,800
Now, are you gonna be with us
on this, Colin, right?
165
00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:36,700
- I'm with you, sir.
- Good.
166
00:08:37,300 --> 00:08:39,300
All right, gentlemen,
it's a great meeting.
167
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:40,400
Best yet.
168
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:42,300
Let's close this out.
169
00:08:56,500 --> 00:08:58,500
Well, you've done
a heck of a job, son.
170
00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:01,400
Even though I traded Sammy Sosa?
171
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,800
We all make mistakes.
172
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,100
Center field. This is my favorite spot
in the world, Poppy.
173
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,400
You know, whenever things get rough,
when I need to clear my head...
174
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,200
...I just come out here.
It just makes me feel at peace.
175
00:09:14,300 --> 00:09:17,000
Right now,
I wish I had a spot like this.
176
00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:19,600
Not the White House lawn.
177
00:09:19,700 --> 00:09:22,600
This guy Saddam's really put a burr
under your saddle, I guess?
178
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,900
Saddam, what I call him now.
179
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,400
If you emphasize the first syllable...
180
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:31,000
...it means in Arabic, "the little boy
who shines old men's shoes."
181
00:09:31,100 --> 00:09:33,600
Well, he's one shoe-shining
piece of crap, all right.
182
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,800
He gassed his own people,
the Kurds...
183
00:09:35,900 --> 00:09:38,000
...invades Kuwait.
184
00:09:38,100 --> 00:09:40,700
It's time to back him down
and take him out, Poppy.
185
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,600
You know, like you done Noriega.
186
00:09:42,700 --> 00:09:43,800
Well, you know...
187
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:47,400
...l've always believed in leaving
personal feelings out of politics...
188
00:09:47,500 --> 00:09:50,400
...but Saddam, this can't stand.
189
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,600
I'm not gonna let
that little dictator control...
190
00:09:52,700 --> 00:09:55,100
...one quarter
of the civilized world's oil.
191
00:09:55,700 --> 00:09:57,200
I got a feeling about this.
192
00:09:57,700 --> 00:09:59,700
How I handle it...
193
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,300
...one way or another, is gonna
determine my legacy as president.
194
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:06,600
We don't wanna have another draw,
another Vietnam.
195
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,400
Sloppy ending.
196
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,200
It's critical I make the right call.
197
00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:12,900
For myself.
198
00:10:13,100 --> 00:10:14,500
For the world.
199
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,700
Well, you will, Poppy.
200
00:10:15,900 --> 00:10:16,900
I'm sure.
201
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,200
You know, just don't think about it
too much...
202
00:10:19,300 --> 00:10:21,400
...because it just screws you all up.
203
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:24,400
Sorry to hear about
Selig screwing you.
204
00:10:24,500 --> 00:10:25,400
No.
205
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:28,400
I was a dang fool thinking
he'd ever make me commissioner.
206
00:10:28,500 --> 00:10:31,900
He was just jerking my chain,
keeping the job warm for himself.
207
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000
You own a baseball team.
208
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:36,400
Spare yourself the headache.
209
00:10:37,900 --> 00:10:40,600
It may be better
you stay out of the barrel.
210
00:10:41,300 --> 00:10:42,400
What do you mean?
211
00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:46,000
Just better.
212
00:10:49,100 --> 00:10:50,500
So how's Jeb?
213
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:53,900
You know, I think your brother's
actually gonna be governor of Florida.
214
00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:55,900
- I really do.
- You don't say.
215
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,700
He's always had that ambition.
216
00:10:57,900 --> 00:11:00,100
Oh, who knows these things.
217
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:01,700
But that kid could...
218
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,100
Well, one day...
219
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,500
...he could even be president.
220
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:08,900
Gotta be getting back.
221
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,300
Nice seeing you, son.
222
00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:12,600
You keep it up.
223
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,200
And I'll throw out that first ball
when you need me.
224
00:11:20,700 --> 00:11:22,100
In facing down
Saddam Hussein...
225
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,900
... President Bush has rewritten
the book on crisis management.
226
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,500
The temporary cease-fire
would become formal in 48 hours...
227
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,800
... if Iraq releases all POWs
and Kuwaiti detainees.
228
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,800
For all intents and purposes,
Operation Desert Storm has ended.
229
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,300
A smashing victory for the Allies.
230
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:40,000
A crushing and embarrassing defeat
for Iraq.
231
00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:42,100
The Iraqi POWs march
with their hands up...
232
00:11:42,300 --> 00:11:46,100
... trudging past burning oil fields
and abandoned defensive positions.
233
00:11:46,100 --> 00:11:48,400
Gentlemen, well done.
234
00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:50,200
Dick, could you and Colin stay?
235
00:11:50,300 --> 00:11:52,200
Congratulations, general.
236
00:11:53,500 --> 00:11:55,000
Good job.
237
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,300
A hundred hours, my gosh.
238
00:12:05,700 --> 00:12:09,300
I guess we finally kicked
that Vietnam syndrome.
239
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,000
It makes you wanna go all the way
to Baghdad, doesn't it?
240
00:12:12,100 --> 00:12:14,600
Probably get there in two days.
241
00:12:15,300 --> 00:12:18,700
But to be an occupying power
in an Arab land...
242
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,300
...the coalition would fall apart.
243
00:12:20,900 --> 00:12:24,300
We'd be out there all alone.
Mission creep.
244
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,800
Going after Saddam,
we'd turn him into a hero.
245
00:12:28,100 --> 00:12:29,600
That's not our job.
246
00:12:29,700 --> 00:12:32,700
And how many Americans
is Iraq worth?
247
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,100
You got an election in November.
248
00:12:36,300 --> 00:12:37,600
No.
249
00:12:38,100 --> 00:12:39,900
Gone far enough.
250
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,300
Nice job, fellas.
251
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,300
Cleanest war in history.
252
00:12:45,500 --> 00:12:47,000
Proud of you.
253
00:12:47,900 --> 00:12:50,800
This is the proudest day
of my presidency.
254
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,000
Governor Clinton
is now President-Elect Bill Clinton.
255
00:13:00,100 --> 00:13:01,900
He has won this presidential race...
256
00:13:02,100 --> 00:13:04,200
... along with his running mate,
Senator Al Gore.
257
00:13:04,300 --> 00:13:06,700
In spite of his overwhelming victory
in Iraq...
258
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,800
... the people did not return
George Bush to the White House.
259
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,200
A stunning reversal of fortune
for an aristocrat of politics...
260
00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:16,200
... whose long career was
overshadowed by a bad economy...
261
00:13:16,300 --> 00:13:20,300
... a third-party candidate, Ross Perot,
and a secret war in Nicaragua.
262
00:13:20,300 --> 00:13:23,300
All of which may have combined
to undo...
263
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,100
The best person didn't win tonight.
264
00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:31,800
The best man did not win, George.
265
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,800
He's so beneath you.
266
00:13:35,900 --> 00:13:38,200
He doesn't deserve to be president.
267
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:41,700
And he wouldn't be
if it wasn't for the damn media.
268
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:44,000
You were a great president, Poppy.
269
00:13:44,100 --> 00:13:45,800
Great president.
270
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,300
I gave it all I could.
271
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,300
I thought the war
would have carried us.
272
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,400
Well...
273
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,300
...if you just would've clobbered
the son of a bitch, you know?
274
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:15,700
- What?
- You know, I mean...
275
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,600
...gone all the way to Baghdad.
Cleaned his clock.
276
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,000
Has he been imbibing
something I don't...?
277
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:26,100
Don't start. Don't start that.
I'm talking about decisiveness.
278
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,800
Finishing.
Everything I've been told.
279
00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:31,500
Okay, that's it. You can stop right now.
Just zip it up, and I mean it.
280
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:32,600
I won that war.
281
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,900
Of course you did, Poppy.
282
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,200
Of course you did.
283
00:14:38,500 --> 00:14:41,000
Can you all leave, please,
for a moment? Thank you.
284
00:14:41,100 --> 00:14:46,200
- and this is the first indication
of jubilation in Little Rock, Arkansas.
285
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,100
- What was that about?
- Damned if I know.
286
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,300
I've never seen him like this before.
287
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,500
Well, it's hard, you know?
He knows this is the end.
288
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,200
You know what? If he would've listened
to me, he'd have pulverized Clinton.
289
00:14:57,300 --> 00:15:00,700
I mean, I wish he had more of Mom
in him because he's weak in spirit.
290
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,700
That's the difference maker.
He doesn't believe like I believe.
291
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,200
That is not what this is about.
292
00:15:05,300 --> 00:15:07,700
It's his health,
all the medications he's taking.
293
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,100
He's just tired, and he's old.
294
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:11,700
I can't watch him like this.
295
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,400
You know, it hurts too damn much
to lose.
296
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,500
I'd never let this happen to me.
Never.
297
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,900
Governor of Texas?
298
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,500
You must be joking.
299
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:32,800
No, I'm dead serious.
300
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:36,000
Well, how are you gonna beat
Ann Richards? She's way too popular.
301
00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:38,500
Look, Ann Richards
is way too liberal for Texas.
302
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,800
Karl's done the polls.
He says I can beat her.
303
00:15:40,900 --> 00:15:42,800
I'm gonna make
Miss Big-Mouth-Big-Hair...
304
00:15:42,900 --> 00:15:45,000
...pay for the things
she said about Poppy.
305
00:15:45,100 --> 00:15:46,700
Leave it alone.
306
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,500
Besides, I won that campaign.
307
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,200
What's at issue...?
This isn't fair to Jeb.
308
00:15:51,300 --> 00:15:53,600
He's already running
for governor of Florida.
309
00:15:53,700 --> 00:15:56,600
- One Bush at a time, son.
- I'm not looking to steal his heat.
310
00:15:56,700 --> 00:15:59,600
How do you expect us to go
campaigning for both of you?
311
00:15:59,700 --> 00:16:02,300
I'm not asking you to.
312
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,100
Laura, how do you feel
about all of this, truthfully?
313
00:16:05,100 --> 00:16:06,400
W knows how I feel.
314
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,500
Look, you don't understand.
I've already made up my mind.
315
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,100
So you're not asking us,
you're telling us.
316
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:15,400
The fact is, you can't win.
317
00:16:15,500 --> 00:16:17,000
Why do you say that?
318
00:16:17,500 --> 00:16:19,600
Because you're too much like me.
319
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:22,200
You're loud
and you got a short fuse.
320
00:16:22,300 --> 00:16:24,900
Now, Jeb is like your father.
321
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,500
He thinks before he speaks.
322
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,500
He's got his feet on the ground.
323
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,300
- Barb, don't be so hard on him.
- Well, he knows it's the truth.
324
00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:35,600
I'm not gonna say something
I'm liable to regret here.
325
00:16:35,700 --> 00:16:40,200
Son, just consider holding off
until '98.
326
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,300
You won't have Richards
to contend with.
327
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,700
We'll be able to give you
our undivided support.
328
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,100
No, no, I get it. I get it.
329
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:48,400
You want Jeb
to get elected before me.
330
00:16:48,500 --> 00:16:52,800
Come off it.
It's a matter of practicality, of timing.
331
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,200
I want you both to have
what you want, what you deserve.
332
00:16:57,700 --> 00:17:01,300
Well, I'm running this time, Poppy.
333
00:17:01,300 --> 00:17:02,900
You hear me?
334
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:04,400
I'm running now.
335
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:06,500
Here they come.
They'll be bringing the heat.
336
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,200
I know, don't swing at anything
I can't hit.
337
00:17:09,300 --> 00:17:11,400
Mr. Bush, you didn't talk much
about education.
338
00:17:11,500 --> 00:17:13,000
What are your plans for reform?
339
00:17:13,100 --> 00:17:15,300
Well, I'm gonna deregulate
school districts...
340
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,200
...so that teachers
and administrators...
341
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,700
...can develop programs
that best fit their kids.
342
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,400
How are you proposing
to measure students' progress?
343
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,000
Well, we need to make a wholesale
effort against racial profiling...
344
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,400
...which is illiterate children.
345
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,300
You need to teach a child to read...
346
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,900
...then he or her will be able
to pass a literacy test.
347
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,600
We're in the very early stages
of developing our program.
348
00:17:35,700 --> 00:17:38,300
How do you plan
to change the school finance formula?
349
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,100
I for one will not stand
for the subsidation of failure.
350
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:42,900
How do you know
if you don't measure up...
351
00:17:43,100 --> 00:17:45,700
...if you have a system
that simply suckles them through?
352
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:47,100
What about our failed schools?
353
00:17:47,300 --> 00:17:50,800
- Think the state needs to take over?
- More government's not the answer.
354
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,300
We must have the attitude
that every child in America...
355
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,900
...regardless of where they're raised,
can learn.
356
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,300
You know,
rarely is the question asked:
357
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,300
"Is our children learning?"
358
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,400
Okay, fellas, that's it. We'll see you
at the next campaign stop.
359
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:07,100
- Mr. Bush. Mr. Bush. Mr. Bush.
- No more. Adi�s. Adi�s. Adi�s.
360
00:18:07,100 --> 00:18:08,800
"Suckles"?
361
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,800
Look, you're the son of a president.
362
00:18:10,900 --> 00:18:12,500
You graduated Yale.
363
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,800
You went to Harvard,
got a business degree.
364
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:18,000
If you can't stand in front of those guys
for two minutes...
365
00:18:18,100 --> 00:18:20,600
...and come up
with one plausible answer...
366
00:18:20,700 --> 00:18:23,100
...then what the hell
are we running for governor for?
367
00:18:23,100 --> 00:18:25,700
Just tell me what to do.
Whatever it takes.
368
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,100
Look, if I need to read the
whole damn Constitution, I'll learn it.
369
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,700
Okay, four food groups.
370
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,100
Crime, education,
tort reform, welfare.
371
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,900
And if they ask you what time of day
it is, what do you say?
372
00:18:37,100 --> 00:18:38,700
We must teach our children to read.
373
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:39,800
What about welfare?
374
00:18:39,900 --> 00:18:42,500
We must hold the fathers
and the unwed mothers accountable.
375
00:18:42,700 --> 00:18:44,900
- Because we love babies.
- Because we love babies.
376
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,300
Crime?
377
00:18:46,700 --> 00:18:50,100
End early release and all paroles
for rapists and child molesters.
378
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,500
Citizens got the right to carry
a handgun for self-protection.
379
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:56,500
My opponent disagrees about that.
380
00:18:56,700 --> 00:18:59,600
But Texas got the highest rate
of murders in the country.
381
00:18:59,700 --> 00:19:02,100
And still Miss Richards' hair
is in the clouds.
382
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,900
She doesn't believe the citizens
got to protect themselves.
383
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,900
If you believe that,
vote for my opponent.
384
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,200
Okay, so, what about
that swagger of yours?
385
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,100
- In Texas, we call that walking.
- Drinking, drugs, your past?
386
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:16,300
It was a mistake. I was young.
That's all I'm gonna say about that.
387
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,200
I don't wanna give your
14-year-old child the excuse to say:
388
00:19:19,300 --> 00:19:21,800
"If old Governor Bush done it,
maybe I can do it too."
389
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,500
- Hey, George.
- Hey, girls. How are you?
390
00:19:23,700 --> 00:19:25,800
- Good luck on your campaign.
- Thank you.
391
00:19:25,900 --> 00:19:27,700
- Hope you win.
- Vote for me, don't forget.
392
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:28,800
Yes, sir.
393
00:19:28,900 --> 00:19:32,400
What do you say to, "George W. Bush
is a rich, spoiled jerk.
394
00:19:32,500 --> 00:19:34,400
His wealth was produced
by stock swaps...
395
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:36,700
...and bailouts arranged
by his daddy"?
396
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:38,700
Ann Richards can badmouth me
all she wants.
397
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,700
I've created
successful small businesses.
398
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,400
I run a Major League baseball team.
399
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,600
I'm in touch with real people in Texas.
400
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,700
I work with them every day
at the ball park.
401
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,900
Talk to the fans, hot dog vendors.
Get to know what they think.
402
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,500
Because truly, deep down inside...
403
00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:56,900
...you know I'm a guy like you,
a guy you can trust.
404
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,200
Fabulous. Fabulous, W.
405
00:19:59,300 --> 00:20:00,800
What it all comes down to...
406
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,400
...is who Joe Voter wants to sit down
and have a beer with.
407
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,700
And guess who that is.
408
00:20:05,900 --> 00:20:07,800
Just remember
to make mine nonalcoholic.
409
00:20:07,900 --> 00:20:10,700
So anything about the issues,
you come to me first.
410
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,500
I'll tell you what to say.
411
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,600
You're not gonna tell me
what to say, Karl.
412
00:20:14,700 --> 00:20:17,100
I'm gonna tell you what I want.
You're the word man.
413
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,300
This campaign
starts and ends with me.
414
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,300
You got it, W. I'm just a little fairy...
415
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,600
...putting down
a little magic dust for you.
416
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,400
And, Karl...
417
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,300
...this time I'm gonna
out-Texas Texas.
418
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,400
Your father's here to see you,
governor.
419
00:20:37,500 --> 00:20:39,200
Poppy's here right now?
420
00:20:39,300 --> 00:20:41,200
- All right, send him in, Evie.
- Governor.
421
00:20:41,300 --> 00:20:42,900
Yeah. You like that, don't you?
422
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:44,400
Put your pants on.
423
00:20:46,500 --> 00:20:49,100
- How are you, son?
- Hey, Poppy, sorry.
424
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,200
Got your speech ready?
425
00:20:51,300 --> 00:20:53,700
Yeah, I was just getting ready
to go over it again.
426
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,000
This is a moment you'll never forget...
427
00:20:56,100 --> 00:20:58,300
...being inaugurated for the first time.
428
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,200
Try and take a photograph
in your mind...
429
00:21:01,300 --> 00:21:04,800
...so you can savor it
when the times get tough...
430
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,900
...as they always do.
431
00:21:07,300 --> 00:21:10,000
All right, well, I'll try and do that.
432
00:21:11,900 --> 00:21:14,200
Yeah, I sure am glad
that Jeb's coming.
433
00:21:14,300 --> 00:21:16,900
I'm gonna acknowledge him
in my speech.
434
00:21:18,700 --> 00:21:22,100
It's been hard on him,
the loss.
435
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,000
I wish I could've been
at his inauguration too.
436
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,200
It would've been something.
437
00:21:27,300 --> 00:21:30,100
Why do you just feel bad about Jeb?
438
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,800
Why don't you feel good about me?
439
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:37,100
Well, of course I do.
440
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,700
And...
441
00:21:44,300 --> 00:21:46,300
I brought you these.
442
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,800
They were your grandfather's.
443
00:21:51,700 --> 00:21:54,600
The only real thing he ever gave me.
444
00:21:58,500 --> 00:22:00,100
Wear them well.
445
00:22:06,900 --> 00:22:09,400
See you at the inauguration, son.
446
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,300
Well, what did he have to say?
447
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,000
"These cufflinks
are my most treasured possession.
448
00:22:24,100 --> 00:22:28,900
My father, Prescott, gave them to me
right after I came back from the war.
449
00:22:28,900 --> 00:22:30,600
They were mine.
Now they are yours.
450
00:22:30,700 --> 00:22:32,800
I'm sure you will make
a fine governor."
451
00:22:32,900 --> 00:22:34,700
It's nice, W.
452
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,000
You think he might ever be able
to say something direct to me...
453
00:22:38,100 --> 00:22:40,400
...instead of using these notes?
- This is his way.
454
00:22:40,500 --> 00:22:43,800
- You think he might be happy with me?
- Hon, he is.
455
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,800
Let me help you.
456
00:22:52,500 --> 00:22:53,900
Well, Jebby, that's just great.
457
00:22:55,300 --> 00:22:57,800
Keep Florida warm. You say hi
to Columba and the kids for me.
458
00:22:57,900 --> 00:22:59,600
Governor, the reverend.
459
00:23:00,100 --> 00:23:01,600
Yeah, we'll talk later.
460
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,100
- Earle.
- Governor.
461
00:23:03,300 --> 00:23:05,100
- Hey, thanks a bunch for coming.
- Yeah.
462
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,200
Hey, go ahead, take a seat.
Make yourself comfortable.
463
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:11,200
- Hey, how's the show coming along?
- Couldn't be better.
464
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,000
Over 100 million Americans
are watching the Earle Hudd Hour...
465
00:23:15,100 --> 00:23:17,400
...right here in North America.
- Fabulous.
466
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,700
You don't say. That's great.
That's dandy, Earle.
467
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,100
So, listen...
468
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:28,900
...I asked you here today to discuss
something of great importance.
469
00:23:30,900 --> 00:23:32,400
I've heard the call.
470
00:23:32,500 --> 00:23:33,600
Well, I know.
471
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,700
Don't forget, I've been the witness
to the growth in your faith.
472
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,100
No, that's not what I mean.
473
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,000
I mean, I've heard the call.
474
00:23:41,100 --> 00:23:44,300
And I believe that God
wants me to run for president.
475
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,800
- Truly?
- I can't explain it.
476
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:55,100
But I think that something
is gonna happen.
477
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,000
And at that time,
my country is gonna need me.
478
00:23:58,100 --> 00:24:01,300
And, you know,
I think it's part of a divine plan.
479
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,600
Well, a man don't
hear the call, governor...
480
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:06,800
...unless the good Lord wants him to.
481
00:24:06,900 --> 00:24:08,600
The truth is I don't wanna run.
482
00:24:08,700 --> 00:24:11,800
I mean, it's like Moses. I mean,
he wasn't a very good speaker.
483
00:24:11,900 --> 00:24:14,300
But finally, he just knew.
484
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,700
My father was president,
the whole family was affected by it.
485
00:24:17,700 --> 00:24:19,500
I know the price.
486
00:24:19,700 --> 00:24:23,000
I'd be happy just buying
my fishing lures at Wal-Mart.
487
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:26,900
And if I run for president,
I know my life will never be the same.
488
00:24:26,900 --> 00:24:30,200
But I feel
that God wants me to do this, Earle.
489
00:24:30,300 --> 00:24:32,300
And I must do it.
490
00:24:32,700 --> 00:24:34,300
I must.
491
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,900
Well, then, you must, son.
492
00:24:40,700 --> 00:24:43,900
- I'd like to pray over it.
- Yeah, thank you.
493
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,700
Dear Lord...
494
00:24:48,100 --> 00:24:50,500
...we pray that you will watch over...
495
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:56,200
...and always shine your light on
our humble servant George W. Bush.
496
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,100
In Jesus' name.
497
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,800
Amen.
498
00:24:59,900 --> 00:25:01,300
Amen.
499
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,200
Last draft. I promise.
500
00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:11,500
Yellowcake again.
I've read how many of these?
501
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,300
I'm burned out. I've gotta get some
sack time. Have my guy check it out.
502
00:25:21,500 --> 00:25:23,600
We finally got it in.
503
00:25:23,700 --> 00:25:26,100
Page eight. Uranium in Africa.
504
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,700
Took long enough.
505
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,100
British Government has learned
that Saddam Hussein...
506
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:36,200
...recently sought significant quantities
of uranium in Africa.
507
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,200
Our intelligence sources tells us...
508
00:25:38,500 --> 00:25:41,700
...that he has attempted to purchase
high-strength aluminum tubes...
509
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,900
... suitable for
nuclear-weapons production.
510
00:25:45,100 --> 00:25:47,400
Evidence from intelligence sources...
511
00:25:47,500 --> 00:25:50,600
... and secret communications
from people now in custody...
512
00:25:51,100 --> 00:25:53,300
...reveal that Saddam Hussein...
513
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,800
...aids and protects terrorists.
514
00:25:55,900 --> 00:25:58,700
Including members of al Qaeda.
515
00:25:59,700 --> 00:26:02,100
Imagine those 19 hijackers...
516
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,200
... with other weapons
and other plans...
517
00:26:05,300 --> 00:26:07,900
... this time armed
by Saddam Hussein.
518
00:26:08,700 --> 00:26:11,900
It would take one bomb,
one canister...
519
00:26:11,900 --> 00:26:14,100
... one crate slipped into this country...
520
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,600
... to bring a day of horror
like none we have ever known.
521
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,800
Facing clear evidence of peril...
522
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,100
... we cannot wait for the final proof...
523
00:26:25,300 --> 00:26:30,300
... the smoking gun that can come
in the form of a mushroom cloud.
524
00:26:31,900 --> 00:26:35,500
The liberty we prize
is not America's gift to the world.
525
00:26:36,100 --> 00:26:38,800
It is God's gift to humanity.
526
00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:53,500
Every nation and every region
has a decision to make.
527
00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:57,000
Either you're with us
or you're with the terrorists.
528
00:27:09,700 --> 00:27:11,500
May he guide us now.
529
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,400
And may God continue to bless
the United States of America.
530
00:27:56,300 --> 00:27:59,100
Why don't you take
your sleeping pill?
531
00:27:59,300 --> 00:28:01,200
Clouds coming in.
532
00:28:01,300 --> 00:28:03,200
Looks like rain.
533
00:28:03,500 --> 00:28:05,000
Come on.
534
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:10,200
You're not sitting here at 3 a.m.
thinking about the weather.
535
00:28:10,500 --> 00:28:12,700
Remind me to call the electrician
in the morning.
536
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,600
There's a light out on the path below.
537
00:28:14,700 --> 00:28:17,900
Why don't you call your son
and tell him what's on your mind...
538
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,800
...what's keeping you awake all night?
539
00:28:19,900 --> 00:28:21,600
I'm worried about him.
540
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,400
Really worried.
541
00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:29,400
I can't talk to him.
542
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:32,400
Well, he's not gonna listen to me.
543
00:28:32,500 --> 00:28:35,900
He takes criticism worse than I do.
544
00:28:36,100 --> 00:28:38,200
He's the president now.
545
00:28:38,300 --> 00:28:40,500
His decision to make.
546
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,400
Well...
547
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,300
...you better do something.
548
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,000
This is eating away at you.
549
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,600
I'll do something.
550
00:28:52,500 --> 00:28:54,000
"An attack on Iraq at this time...
551
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,300
...would seriously jeopardize
the global counterterrorist campaign...
552
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,300
...we have undertaken.
And would result...
553
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,500
...in a serious degradation
in international cooperation with us...
554
00:29:02,500 --> 00:29:04,500
...against terrorism."
555
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,000
Damn Brent Scowcroft.
556
00:29:09,100 --> 00:29:11,600
He wouldn't be doing this
unless my father approved it.
557
00:29:11,700 --> 00:29:13,500
You know, Poppy's good friend.
558
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,700
These 1980 guys trying to
tell me what to do...
559
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,500
...when they don't know what I know.
560
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,000
Just when we want the U.N.
and the Democrats in this.
561
00:29:20,100 --> 00:29:22,400
I will call Brent right now.
562
00:29:22,500 --> 00:29:24,500
He can't even talk to me directly
like a man.
563
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,300
Writing letters. I don't wanna
get anything like this again.
564
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,000
I will let Brent know that from here
on out, he's persona non grata.
565
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,400
This is my war, not his.
566
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,900
I will not renegotiate this.
567
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,100
Mr. President.
568
00:29:36,900 --> 00:29:41,200
Has your father ever personally
offered you advice on Iraq?
569
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,400
No, I haven't asked. I don't need to.
570
00:29:43,500 --> 00:29:45,600
Wrong father to appeal to
in terms of strength.
571
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:48,300
You know, there's a higher father
I appeal to.
572
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,000
Amen.
573
00:29:52,900 --> 00:29:54,600
Protestors came
by the thousands...
574
00:29:54,700 --> 00:29:58,100
... filling block after block around
the United Nations to make a single...
575
00:29:59,900 --> 00:30:03,800
These are the largest anti-war
demonstrations ever seen in history.
576
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,100
Some of our allies were very much
against this operation.
577
00:30:11,100 --> 00:30:12,600
Bush, Bush.
578
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,600
Estimates of 10 to 15 million
protestors across the planet...
579
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,000
... protesting America's
pro-war policies in Iraq.
580
00:30:21,700 --> 00:30:24,700
Tens of thousands demonstrating
all over the world...
581
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,900
So I suppose the key here,
George, is to go back to the U.N.
582
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,600
Tony, I'm with you, but I'm flat out of
wrestling moves with these U.N. types.
583
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,700
Even Powell doesn't think
we can get it through.
584
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,400
Believe me, I am twisting
my own set of arms at the U.N.
585
00:30:39,500 --> 00:30:42,100
- All right.
- But I still think...
586
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,400
...France, Germany, Russia,
we can make a deal.
587
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,600
Well, our new thinking
is shaping on that.
588
00:30:48,700 --> 00:30:50,300
- Yeah.
- Which is?
589
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,700
Punish France.
Ignore Germany.
590
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,400
Forgive Russia.
591
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,900
Yes, but with time, just a few months,
much will become clearer.
592
00:30:58,900 --> 00:31:00,300
No, we can't do that, Tony.
593
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,700
We run out of time. The start date
for the war is penciled in. March 10.
594
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,100
March 10th.
595
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,800
George, the inspectors
haven't found anything yet.
596
00:31:08,900 --> 00:31:10,600
How can we justify
a preemptive attack?
597
00:31:10,700 --> 00:31:13,500
Well, no WMDs yet, Tony,
but we know they got them.
598
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,900
- Absolutely.
- So it just might come down to us...
599
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,400
...having to provoke the son of a bitch.
600
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:19,800
Well, what do you have in mind?
601
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,600
We were thinking of painting one of
our U-2 recon planes in U.N. colors...
602
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:24,700
...and fly it over Iraq.
603
00:31:24,900 --> 00:31:28,600
Now, if Saddam takes the bait,
which, knowing him, he will...
604
00:31:28,700 --> 00:31:31,600
Well, when he fires on it,
he'll be in breach of 1441.
605
00:31:31,700 --> 00:31:34,200
That would sure justify retaliation.
606
00:31:34,700 --> 00:31:36,500
Well, it's a novel idea.
607
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,400
Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
608
00:31:38,500 --> 00:31:39,600
Tony...
609
00:31:39,700 --> 00:31:42,800
...come the U.N.
second resolution or not...
610
00:31:42,900 --> 00:31:45,000
...we're going to war on this.
611
00:31:45,100 --> 00:31:46,600
Are you?
612
00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:57,300
I do not share your spirit
for why we need war.
613
00:31:57,500 --> 00:31:59,100
War is not inevitable.
614
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:03,100
There are alternative ways
to reach goals.
615
00:32:03,100 --> 00:32:05,800
I mean, it's a question of morality,
George.
616
00:32:05,900 --> 00:32:08,600
Well, Jacques,
St. Augustine wrote about that.
617
00:32:08,700 --> 00:32:11,600
Said there was such a thing
as just war.
618
00:32:14,300 --> 00:32:16,800
Listen, Jacques,
I'm committed to our relationship.
619
00:32:16,900 --> 00:32:18,400
- So am I.
- I'm responsible for...
620
00:32:18,500 --> 00:32:21,400
...hugging the families of those
who have lost lives in war...
621
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:24,800
...and I view an armed Saddam as
a direct threat to the American people.
622
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:30,800
Well, if there is a war, we'll work
together on the reconstruction.
623
00:32:30,900 --> 00:32:33,300
We will all contribute.
624
00:32:35,300 --> 00:32:36,500
Okay, Jacques.
625
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,000
Then...
626
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,600
...that's it.
You have a good night now.
627
00:32:41,700 --> 00:32:43,100
Good night, George.
628
00:32:44,700 --> 00:32:47,700
I'd love to stuff some freedom fries
right down that frog's throat.
629
00:32:47,700 --> 00:32:49,800
- Yeah.
- Thinks he can have it both ways.
630
00:32:49,900 --> 00:32:51,000
Ripping off their oil...
631
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,100
...and then taking the high horse
and claiming the low road.
632
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,100
Sir, don't lose any sleep over
the French. He was never onboard.
633
00:32:58,100 --> 00:33:01,500
They got him on 60 Minutes next week
calling for 30 days for the inspectors.
634
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,300
Thirty days?
635
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,700
Next chance that comes up,
remind me to veto something French...
636
00:33:06,700 --> 00:33:08,600
...because I'd be damn glad to.
637
00:33:08,700 --> 00:33:10,500
What about Putin?
Get him on the phone.
638
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,100
All right.
639
00:33:12,300 --> 00:33:14,700
Might as well get stabbed
in the back all at once.
640
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,300
Like that guy in Rome.
641
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,400
- teaspoonful
of dry anthrax in an envelope...
642
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,300
... shut down the United States Senate
in the fall of 2001.
643
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,100
This forced
several hundred people...
644
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,400
... to undergo
emergency medical treatment...
645
00:33:30,500 --> 00:33:32,400
... killed two postal workers...
646
00:33:32,500 --> 00:33:36,100
... just from the amount
of just about this quantity.
647
00:33:36,900 --> 00:33:42,200
Iraq declared 8500 liters of anthrax.
648
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:46,000
My man, Balloon Foot,
came through in the end, didn't he?
649
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:52,100
- even one teaspoonful
of this deadly material.
650
00:33:52,900 --> 00:33:55,200
You know, he's been a nudge
from the beginning...
651
00:33:55,300 --> 00:33:57,700
...but this is gonna seal the deal.
652
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,800
It's the best speech he's ever given.
653
00:34:04,100 --> 00:34:05,300
Can you believe that, Vice?
654
00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:08,400
Comrade Pooty-Poot, with all
the problems he's got in Chechnya...
655
00:34:08,500 --> 00:34:10,700
...he's got the balls
to feel bad for me.
656
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,700
It's all because
of that damn Kraut, Schr�der.
657
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,700
Used me as a pi�ata
to get re-elected.
658
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,800
I won't forget that.
659
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,000
Well, at least we got
Italy, Australia...
660
00:34:21,100 --> 00:34:23,700
...the Czechs, Spain,
Poland, South Korea...
661
00:34:23,700 --> 00:34:25,600
...and, you know, the Brits.
662
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,700
- Romania, Slovenia, Bulgaria.
- Yeah.
663
00:34:29,700 --> 00:34:31,500
Japan is sending observers.
664
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,100
And let's not forget
the 90 Mongolian troops.
665
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,300
I hear they're damn fine
wrestlers too.
666
00:34:37,300 --> 00:34:39,900
We got more than 40 countries
in this coalition, right?
667
00:34:39,900 --> 00:34:44,200
Yeah, 49, sir, but most of them
do not have militaries.
668
00:34:44,300 --> 00:34:46,000
Some are sending equipment.
669
00:34:46,100 --> 00:34:49,000
- Morocco is sending monkeys.
- Monkeys?
670
00:34:49,100 --> 00:34:52,800
Monkeys that are trained to locate
and set off minefields, yeah.
671
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,300
That's a good idea.
672
00:34:54,700 --> 00:34:57,700
- Okay, Tommy's standing by in Qatar.
- Right.
673
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,500
Hey, Tommy.
How you doing over there?
674
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,800
Hot as a goat's asshole, sir.
675
00:35:02,900 --> 00:35:04,300
What's the latest plan, Tom?
676
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,900
Well, we should have 140,000
in the region any day now.
677
00:35:07,900 --> 00:35:09,900
Seventy eight thousand of them
ground forces.
678
00:35:10,100 --> 00:35:12,000
Another 50,000 are on the way.
679
00:35:12,100 --> 00:35:15,100
We'll have a total force level
of 208,000 on the ground.
680
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,100
That's great.
So you got all you need to go?
681
00:35:17,300 --> 00:35:18,700
Yes, sir.
682
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,400
Now, sir, we have identified
over 24 high-value targets.
683
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,400
But this could result
in civilian deaths.
684
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:28,100
I'm no target picker, Tommy,
but I'm not Clinton either.
685
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,700
I don't wanna fire no $2 million missile
at a $ 10 empty tent, and hit a camel.
686
00:35:32,700 --> 00:35:34,500
Not gonna happen on my watch, sir.
687
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,700
Be sure not to hit any schools
or hospitals.
688
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,300
Well, I read you on the hospitals.
Any schools we'll hit at night.
689
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,400
All right, what about
projected casualties?
690
00:35:42,500 --> 00:35:46,100
Well, I think now, more in
the neighborhood of several hundred.
691
00:35:46,100 --> 00:35:47,400
No more than a thousand.
692
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,100
Remember, Americans don't like to
see dead boys on their television sets.
693
00:35:51,100 --> 00:35:53,900
Yes, death tends to give war
a depressing image.
694
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,700
We can issue a blackout on
any coverage of soldiers in caskets.
695
00:35:57,700 --> 00:36:00,100
The same thing should apply
to military funerals.
696
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,400
Oh, yeah, that's good, Vice.
697
00:36:02,700 --> 00:36:03,800
Well...
698
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,400
...it's been a long haul,
gentlemen, ladies.
699
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:08,400
I don't care what happens now...
700
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,500
...how many damn votes we do
or don't get in the U.N.
701
00:36:12,700 --> 00:36:15,000
Come Monday morning, 10 a. m...
702
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,800
...l'm giving Saddam and his two sons
48 hours to get out of Dodge, okay?
703
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,400
Indeed.
704
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:22,000
All right.
705
00:36:23,900 --> 00:36:25,200
Everybody in agreement then?
706
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:26,200
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
707
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,000
All right.
708
00:36:28,300 --> 00:36:30,500
May God bless the troops.
709
00:36:31,300 --> 00:36:33,500
May God bless America.
710
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,100
All right, way to go.
This is like the fall of the Berlin Wall.
711
00:37:12,100 --> 00:37:13,400
I've got goose bumps.
712
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,600
Not one CBW attack. Not one Scud.
No surprises.
713
00:37:16,700 --> 00:37:18,200
Except they're not surrendering.
714
00:37:18,300 --> 00:37:20,800
Thousands are taking off
their uniforms and going home.
715
00:37:20,900 --> 00:37:23,700
Well, good. I'll bet Saddam's running
from palace to palace...
716
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,300
...trying to find his passports.
717
00:37:25,500 --> 00:37:27,500
Don't say I was wrong
on this one, Colin.
718
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,100
We did it, sir. Congratulations.
719
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:30,400
We sure did, Colin.
720
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,600
- Congratulations.
- Good to see you smiling.
721
00:37:32,700 --> 00:37:34,700
What do you mean we, kemosabe?
722
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:35,800
Hey, good job.
723
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:38,300
- Hey.
- Good job, sir. Good job.
724
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:39,800
I remember you once agreeing...
725
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,600
...that going all the way to Baghdad
would be a mistake.
726
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,400
I think you made
a bigger boo-boo, Colin.
727
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,300
You could've been president.
728
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,000
Fuck you.
729
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,100
This is for those who doubted
I won the election.
730
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,000
- Yes, sir.
- And who doubted my judgment.
731
00:37:57,100 --> 00:38:00,500
So dropping a rope around its neck,
that didn't bring it down.
732
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,100
They took an ax to the base of
the statue, that didn't bring it down.
733
00:38:04,100 --> 00:38:06,800
And this is finally what did.
734
00:38:06,900 --> 00:38:11,200
Yeah. We got the son of a bitch.
How about that?
735
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,500
Maybe he called it right after all.
736
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:16,900
Well, they got the statue...
737
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,500
...but now they gotta catch the man.
738
00:38:26,100 --> 00:38:28,900
Live from New York City,
this is SpinBall...
739
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,100
... with Jack Hawk and Candice Black.
740
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,800
What did you think of that?
That was spectacular.
741
00:38:37,900 --> 00:38:39,200
Jack, it's really stunning.
742
00:38:39,300 --> 00:38:43,400
I mean, he's landing on a boat
at 150 miles per hour.
743
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,500
I can't think of a Democrat
that would do that.
744
00:38:45,700 --> 00:38:47,300
Exactly. Imagine Kerry.
745
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,400
Kerry would never be able
to pull this off.
746
00:38:49,500 --> 00:38:52,400
This is the guy who threw down
someone else's Vietnam medals.
747
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:55,400
George Bush, on the other hand,
a man's man.
748
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,300
Women love that. We're buying
into that, and perception is reality.
749
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,300
George Bush looks for real, all right.
750
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,600
He didn't fight in the war,
but he looks like he did.
751
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,900
And women love President Bush
for this very reason.
752
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,000
And women love this war. It's simple.
753
00:39:11,100 --> 00:39:12,900
My fellow Americans...
754
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,500
...major combat operations in Iraq
has ended.
755
00:39:16,500 --> 00:39:18,600
In the battle of Iraq...
756
00:39:18,700 --> 00:39:23,000
...the United States and our allies
have prevailed.
757
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,700
In the images of celebrating Iraqis...
758
00:39:29,900 --> 00:39:33,500
...we have seen the ageless appeal
of human freedom.
759
00:39:33,500 --> 00:39:37,600
Everywhere that freedom steers,
let tyrants fear.
760
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:42,600
That is the Almighty's gift to every
man and woman in this world.
761
00:39:43,700 --> 00:39:45,200
May God bless you all.
762
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,800
And may God continue
to bless America.
763
00:39:59,700 --> 00:40:02,800
Roadside bombs
killed six U.S. soldiers today...
764
00:40:02,900 --> 00:40:05,600
... in separate attacks
in Fallujah and Baghdad.
765
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,900
To date, 853 American soldiers
have been killed in Iraq.
766
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:14,400
The bombing continues
a recent pattern of insurgency...
767
00:40:14,500 --> 00:40:18,500
... directed at American troops,
but also the Iraqi civilian population...
768
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:22,900
... which is divided between Shiite
and Sunni religious affiliations.
769
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,800
The truck bomb killed at least 17...
770
00:40:25,900 --> 00:40:29,700
... and wounded over 100
at the U.N. headquarters in Baghdad.
771
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,100
The blast also killed
U.N. Ambassador Sergio de Mello...
772
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,300
... who appears to have been
the main target.
773
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,000
Back up. Back up.
774
00:40:38,500 --> 00:40:40,100
Former members of the Iraqi army...
775
00:40:40,300 --> 00:40:43,100
... are protesting the dissolution
of the armed forces.
776
00:40:43,100 --> 00:40:45,500
They have guns
but no food to feed their families.
777
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,400
Some have threatened
they will resort to suicide attacks...
778
00:40:48,500 --> 00:40:50,700
... if their grievances
are not addressed.
779
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,600
The Pentagon told me we'd be down
to 25 to 30,000 troops by August.
780
00:40:58,700 --> 00:41:00,300
Is that anywhere near possible now?
781
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,500
Well, I'm afraid, Mr. President, we're
in for a longer haul than we thought.
782
00:41:04,500 --> 00:41:07,000
Then where the hell
are the WMDs at?
783
00:41:07,100 --> 00:41:11,200
Well, we control the country now, sir,
so I'm sure we're gonna find them.
784
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:13,500
All right, tell me this.
785
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:18,000
Whose job is it
to find these damn weapons?
786
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:24,200
Bremer, I mean, you're running
the whole show here, right?
787
00:41:24,300 --> 00:41:26,500
- Well?
- That's not within my purview, sir.
788
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,200
I thought General Franks
was taking the initiative there.
789
00:41:29,300 --> 00:41:31,400
Tom, you're commander
of the whole shebang...
790
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:34,800
That area was never part
of my command responsibility, sir.
791
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:38,600
- There was a team assigned by the...
- No, no. Who? Who's in charge?
792
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,900
Well, as per Secretary Rumsfeld's
wishes, sir...
793
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,900
...most normal postop
State Department functions, sir...
794
00:41:50,900 --> 00:41:53,000
...were stripped from us
and given to Defense.
795
00:41:53,100 --> 00:41:55,300
Why wasn't I told?
796
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:57,600
What's Rummy say about this?
797
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:02,300
Cambone... I believe that it's
Stephen Cambone's jurisdiction, sir.
798
00:42:02,300 --> 00:42:04,700
Cam... What is that?
Cam who? Cam who?
799
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,500
Well, he's undersecretary of defense
for intelligence, Mr. President.
800
00:42:08,500 --> 00:42:10,600
He reports to Secretary Rumsfeld.
801
00:42:10,700 --> 00:42:11,900
Well, that's great.
802
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:13,600
I mean, that's just great.
803
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,200
Why the heck didn't anyone
tell me this before, huh?
804
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,900
Mr. President,
I wanna go back to Iraq.
805
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:28,500
Look, let me make this clear...
806
00:42:28,500 --> 00:42:32,000
...since I've had some experience
dealing with these matters.
807
00:42:34,100 --> 00:42:38,400
My son has got the toughest position
in the world.
808
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,500
He's the one
who gets the intelligence briefings.
809
00:42:42,300 --> 00:42:44,000
And as Americans...
810
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,600
...it's our duty
to fully support his efforts...
811
00:42:46,700 --> 00:42:50,000
...to bring freedom and democracy
to the Middle East.
812
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,000
And as a father...
813
00:42:54,500 --> 00:42:56,600
...l'll be damned
if I'll listen to people...
814
00:42:56,700 --> 00:42:59,400
...who are always trying
to tear the boy down.
815
00:43:01,500 --> 00:43:04,100
And you know what?
They built him a set of metal legs...
816
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,100
...made him faster
than what he used to be.
817
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:07,900
They make them that good
these days.
818
00:43:08,100 --> 00:43:11,700
You and I are gonna run together, son,
soon as you get back on your feet.
819
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,900
I give you my promise, all right?
820
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,100
Okay?
821
00:43:34,500 --> 00:43:37,700
Got him a shirt. Maybe you can
give it to him when he wakes up.
822
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,400
I'd like...
823
00:43:39,500 --> 00:43:41,000
...to stand up for you, sir.
824
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:42,900
No, you don't, sergeant.
825
00:43:43,100 --> 00:43:45,500
No, I'm the one standing up for you.
826
00:43:45,500 --> 00:43:48,000
Laura and I are looking forward
to seeing you next trip.
827
00:43:48,100 --> 00:43:49,500
- All right, now?
- That's right.
828
00:43:49,700 --> 00:43:51,600
All right, you hang in there.
829
00:43:54,500 --> 00:43:56,200
Thank you.
830
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:03,800
Thank you.
831
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,500
David, good to see you.
832
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,200
- Mr. President.
- So, what do you got for us?
833
00:44:14,100 --> 00:44:16,300
You used to love pecan pie,
Mr. President.
834
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,000
I've given up sweets
since the start of the war, Rummy.
835
00:44:19,100 --> 00:44:22,200
My personal sacrifice
to show support for our troops.
836
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:26,600
The best pie I've ever tasted,
Mr. President.
837
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,700
So, what you're telling me, David,
comes down to nothing on nothing?
838
00:44:31,700 --> 00:44:32,800
Frankly, we missed it...
839
00:44:32,900 --> 00:44:35,500
...because Saddam pretended
that he had the weapons.
840
00:44:36,300 --> 00:44:37,300
It doesn't make sense.
841
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,400
Why would he risk his life and
government by not coming clean?
842
00:44:41,500 --> 00:44:43,700
Because I think...
843
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,700
...he didn't want his people to know
he didn't have the weapons.
844
00:44:46,700 --> 00:44:49,200
Part of his Superman image.
845
00:44:49,300 --> 00:44:52,000
Afraid they'd cut his throat
if they found out the truth.
846
00:44:52,100 --> 00:44:54,700
You're saying this guy
was running a full house off a pair?
847
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:56,100
Come on, that's just nuts.
848
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,200
He really thought you were bluffing.
Right up to the end.
849
00:44:59,300 --> 00:45:01,500
Me, bluff?
850
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:05,500
How could the CIA, all our
intel people, completely muff this?
851
00:45:06,700 --> 00:45:09,000
I told Mr. Tenet from the beginning...
852
00:45:09,100 --> 00:45:13,200
...that things weren't panning out
the way we thought they existed.
853
00:45:13,500 --> 00:45:15,300
And your National Security advisers...
854
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,700
...should've got into this, gotten
the details and vetted them for you.
855
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,700
Believe me, Dr. Kay...
856
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,200
...when I say we were getting
thousands of reports...
857
00:45:23,300 --> 00:45:25,300
...and not just from you or the CIA.
858
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,500
I don't see... I don't know that
putting the blame on some...
859
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:33,300
Mr. President, I think we're being
overly negative in a situation...
860
00:45:33,300 --> 00:45:37,000
...where, indeed,
we lack the metrics...
861
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,400
...to judge the overall success
of the global war on terror.
862
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:44,900
My office sent to you
spy satellite photos...
863
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:49,100
...that showed that WMDs
could be hidden in caves...
864
00:45:49,100 --> 00:45:51,500
...that you never responded to.
865
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,200
We analyzed those photos,
Mr. Vice President...
866
00:45:55,300 --> 00:45:59,800
...and they are actually trenches,
watering holes for cattle.
867
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:01,500
Not caves.
868
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,600
That's not what my people told me.
869
00:46:03,700 --> 00:46:05,200
Vice, you grew up in Wyoming.
870
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,600
You should damn well know cattle.
871
00:46:08,300 --> 00:46:11,700
I mean, there you go.
You fool me once, shame on you.
872
00:46:11,700 --> 00:46:13,800
Now, fool me twice...
873
00:46:14,900 --> 00:46:16,700
...and you can't get fooled again.
874
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,400
I'm sorry, Mr. President.
875
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,900
We thought he had WMDs.
876
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,000
But we were all wrong about him.
877
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,700
And I include myself.
878
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,600
Our system...
879
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,400
...the integrity of it...
880
00:46:44,900 --> 00:46:47,200
...has broken down completely.
881
00:46:50,300 --> 00:46:54,200
And I have never traded access
for integrity.
882
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,400
And I am obligated to resign.
883
00:47:23,300 --> 00:47:25,400
That was some shit sandwich
he served for lunch.
884
00:47:25,700 --> 00:47:27,900
Working on it. We can
find someone who can deliver.
885
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,200
- I don't buy it. He had those weapons.
- No doubt.
886
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:31,700
But now we shift the ground.
887
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,600
Keep the focus
on freedom and democracy.
888
00:47:33,700 --> 00:47:35,300
Rumsfeld is on another planet.
889
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,300
Sometimes I wonder.
I think he's lost it.
890
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,200
- What about Iran?
- Oh, yeah.
891
00:47:40,300 --> 00:47:42,500
Bigtime uranium-enrichment
program going on.
892
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:44,900
- We're on it.
- Stay on it.
893
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:46,000
There's something there.
894
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:47,900
I can feel it.
895
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Kansas State and Ohio State,
a pair of top- 10 teams squared off...
896
00:47:51,100 --> 00:47:53,800
... in the Fiesta Bowl.
That was for the championship.
897
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:57,400
Krenzel, your MVP,
four touchdowns passing.
898
00:48:01,500 --> 00:48:03,300
Funny thing...
899
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,600
...Poppy once said.
900
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,300
I didn't appreciate it.
901
00:48:11,500 --> 00:48:13,700
What was that, Geo?
902
00:48:15,300 --> 00:48:17,100
Something about:
903
00:48:18,100 --> 00:48:21,100
"Sometimes it's better to stay
out of the barrel."
904
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,500
These lines here...
905
00:48:33,500 --> 00:48:36,800
...seem like they just
dug in overnight.
906
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,400
You're as handsome as ever, Geo.
907
00:48:39,500 --> 00:48:42,400
Only makes you look
more distinguished.
908
00:48:44,900 --> 00:48:48,700
Your favorite play is coming to town.
Why don't we get tickets?
909
00:48:53,100 --> 00:48:54,600
Cats.
910
00:48:54,700 --> 00:48:57,300
The Broadway company
is going to be here.
911
00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,300
You wanna go?
912
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:01,500
Cats?
913
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,600
That's something I'd stay up late for.
Definitely.
914
00:49:04,700 --> 00:49:06,700
I thought so.
915
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,300
You know, I don't get it.
916
00:49:13,300 --> 00:49:16,900
All this psychobabble in the media.
917
00:49:17,300 --> 00:49:21,400
I mean, all I wanted to do
is make this a better and safer world...
918
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,200
...for everyone.
919
00:49:24,100 --> 00:49:26,000
There's good and there's evil.
920
00:49:26,100 --> 00:49:30,800
And you and I and the rest of the
people in America know the difference.
921
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,400
That good ultimately wins out.
922
00:49:37,500 --> 00:49:41,500
But you have to fight for it.
You have to fight for it.
923
00:49:41,500 --> 00:49:46,100
People have no idea
how hard it is on us.
924
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,700
The sacrifices you've made.
925
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:54,100
Laura, I knew when I married you
what you were made of.
926
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:58,100
That same bolt of lightning
hit both of us.
927
00:49:58,100 --> 00:50:00,000
For better or worse.
928
00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,300
Mostly better.
929
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:09,200
Since the start of the war, though...
930
00:50:09,300 --> 00:50:12,800
...I barely have time
to run my three miles anymore.
931
00:50:13,100 --> 00:50:14,200
My knees hurt.
932
00:50:14,300 --> 00:50:16,700
I'm just off my pace.
933
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:19,900
It's been hard on me, Laura.
934
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,500
On top of everything else.
935
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:24,100
Well...
936
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,400
...someday the war will be over.
937
00:50:27,700 --> 00:50:30,200
And we can have our lives back.
938
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:35,600
I'll get those tickets for next week.
939
00:50:42,900 --> 00:50:45,700
- Poppy, what are you doing here?
- I used to sit in this chair.
940
00:50:46,100 --> 00:50:48,100
Opposite Baker.
941
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:54,200
Got him to help pull your ass
out of the fire in Florida in 2000.
942
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:56,700
Don't forget that.
943
00:50:58,100 --> 00:50:59,500
Come on. Let's go.
944
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,000
A little mano a mano.
945
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,100
- Bet you I can still whip your ass.
- What?
946
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,200
Got to admit, I scared you back then.
Still scare you, don't I?
947
00:51:10,300 --> 00:51:14,000
I got a lot on my mind.
I don't need this, Poppy. Not now.
948
00:51:18,300 --> 00:51:20,300
Why you being so ornery?
949
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:22,600
Because you disappoint me, Junior.
950
00:51:22,700 --> 00:51:24,500
Deeply disappoint me.
951
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,300
After all these years. Still?
952
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,900
- You're still with that?
- No, no, no.
953
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,200
Not the girls or summer jobs anymore.
954
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,800
I dug myself out of the depths of hell
to stand on my own two feet...
955
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,400
...make something of myself.
And I did it on my own.
956
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:42,900
Think you did.
957
00:51:43,100 --> 00:51:45,100
Yeah, well, you also wrecked it.
958
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:46,600
Wrecked. Wrecked what?
959
00:51:46,700 --> 00:51:48,500
You've ruined it for us.
960
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:50,900
- What are you talking about?
- The Bush name.
961
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,000
Get out of my office.
962
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:54,700
Two hundred years of work. For Jeb.
963
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:56,600
Get out.
964
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,800
With this fiasco.
965
00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:01,100
Get out of my life.
966
00:52:01,300 --> 00:52:03,200
And that's what it is.
967
00:52:03,300 --> 00:52:04,600
A goddamn fiasco.
968
00:52:04,700 --> 00:52:05,900
Get out!
969
00:52:06,300 --> 00:52:08,700
George. George.
970
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:10,700
Are you all right?
971
00:52:10,900 --> 00:52:12,800
Oh, Jesus.
972
00:52:12,900 --> 00:52:15,200
Jesus, George.
973
00:52:19,500 --> 00:52:21,800
There's been tough weeks in Iraq.
974
00:52:21,900 --> 00:52:23,800
But our central commitment
of the mission...
975
00:52:23,900 --> 00:52:28,100
...is the transfer of sovereignty
back to the Iraqi people.
976
00:52:29,100 --> 00:52:31,800
Now, we've set a deadline
for this to take place...
977
00:52:31,900 --> 00:52:33,300
...three months from now.
978
00:52:33,900 --> 00:52:37,200
June 30, 2004.
979
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:47,700
It's important that
we meet that deadline, all right?
980
00:52:49,300 --> 00:52:51,400
The only way we can win...
981
00:52:53,500 --> 00:52:57,100
...is to leave before the job is done.
982
00:52:58,500 --> 00:53:00,000
Yeah.
983
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:02,000
I'll now take questions.
984
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:03,200
- Mr. President.
- Sir.
985
00:53:03,300 --> 00:53:04,700
- Sir, sir.
- Question, sir.
986
00:53:04,900 --> 00:53:06,300
Yeah.
987
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:08,900
Miss China?
988
00:53:09,100 --> 00:53:11,500
Mr. President,
I know this is a tough question...
989
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,700
...but my viewers
would really like to know.
990
00:53:14,700 --> 00:53:17,000
What place do you think
you'll have in history?
991
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,100
In history?
992
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:21,300
I don't know.
993
00:53:21,700 --> 00:53:23,700
In history, we'll all be dead.
994
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:25,500
- Mr. President?
- Yeah.
995
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,100
- Mr. President?
- Yeah, John, there.
996
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,100
- Thank you, sir. Mr. President.
- Yeah.
997
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:35,600
After 9l11, what would you say
your biggest mistakes would be...
998
00:53:35,700 --> 00:53:38,000
...and what lessons
have you learned from them?
999
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:47,700
Now, I wish you would have
given me...
1000
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:49,800
...this written question beforehand,
John...
1001
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,100
...so I could prepare for it.
1002
00:53:57,500 --> 00:53:59,500
You know, I just...
1003
00:54:03,900 --> 00:54:07,000
John, I'm sure historians will say,
"Gosh," you know.
1004
00:54:07,100 --> 00:54:10,700
"I wish he could've done better,
you know, this way or that way."
1005
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,400
Something will pop into my head
here in the press conference...
1006
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,300
...with all the pressure of trying
to come up with an answer...
1007
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:24,600
...but it hasn't yet.
1008
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,100
You know, I hope...
1009
00:54:30,700 --> 00:54:33,800
I don't wanna sound like
I haven't made no mistakes.
1010
00:54:33,900 --> 00:54:36,000
You know, I'm confident I have.
1011
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,300
It's just, I haven't...
1012
00:54:40,300 --> 00:54:42,500
You know, you really put me
on the spot here...
1013
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:43,700
...and maybe I'm not...
1014
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,500
...as quick on my feet
as I should be in coming up with one.
1015
00:55:09,300 --> 00:55:10,500
Mr. President.
1016
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,400
Not now, Ari. Not now. I'm busy.
1017
00:55:22,500 --> 00:55:26,100
We're locked into a dandy, 1- 1 here,
bottom of the eighth, two outs...
1018
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:27,500
... as Spencer stands in.
1019
00:55:27,700 --> 00:55:29,400
He's 3-for-3 on the night.
1020
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:32,100
This is the first time he's come up
with a man on base.
1021
00:55:32,300 --> 00:55:33,900
He hasn't had a chance
to do damage.
1022
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,100
He'd certainly love to do some here.
1023
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,100
Monroe off of first. That was
the starting pitcher by the way.
1024
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,300
Jay Fletcher you just saw down
in the bullpen.
1025
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:42,600
Woodhouse is on deck.
1026
00:55:42,700 --> 00:55:44,700
Schwartz will follow if we get that far.
1027
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,000
Chavez now from the stretch.
1028
00:55:47,100 --> 00:55:48,600
And the pitch to Monroe.
1029
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,300
Swinging, there's a fly ball
into right field.
1030
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:52,700
Moving over.
1031
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,200
He dives, he misses the ball.
1032
00:55:54,300 --> 00:55:56,500
Monroe rounds first.
He heads for second.
1033
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,100
And here comes Spencer
around third going for home.
1034
00:55:59,300 --> 00:56:00,800
The relay to the plate is...
1035
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,000
... not in time.
And Texas takes the lead, 2 to 1.
