00:03:17 And now...
00:03:18 ... ladies and gentlemen...
00:03:19 ... the 43rd
00:03:23 ... George W. Bush.
00:03:43 - Axis of Hatred?
00:03:45 Something about it...
00:03:47 ...just misses.
00:03:51 How about Axis of Weasels?
00:03:52 Don't get cute, Karl.
00:03:54 I think it needs to be stronger.
00:03:56 Just cut through the noise. Like
00:04:00 Well, is it too much then to...?
00:04:04 What about Axis of Evil?
00:04:05 Axis of Evil?
00:04:07 Evil? Yeah, I like the ring of that.
00:04:11 Mr. President,
00:04:15 You can't link Germany and Japan
00:04:18 No, l... I disagree, Colin.
00:04:20 Weapons of mass destruction make
00:04:23 We gotta begin educating the public
00:04:27 You have an approval rating
00:04:30 It's just astounding.
00:04:33 Not since Roosevelt
00:04:36 The American people want revenge.
00:04:40 They want more.
00:04:42 Mr. President, if I may?
00:04:44 Given your strong commitment
00:04:46 ...do you think that Iran
00:04:49 ...with Iraq and North Korea?
00:04:51 After all, Iran has
00:04:55 - As always, Guru, sharp.
00:04:57 Iran is not Iraq and Iraq is not Iran.
00:05:02 If we can get one democracy going
00:05:06 Reagan was right. It's gonna spread
00:05:09 ...because people want freedom.
00:05:11 With this message, we're sending
00:05:14 ...to turn on these deadbeat
00:05:16 ...these ayatollah cockamamies.
00:05:19 When you make threats, sir,
00:05:22 You'd be committing us
00:05:24 ...three fully operational wars
00:05:26 No, I'm not saying war.
00:05:29 But the speech as written
00:05:33 ...against countries,
00:05:36 For 60 years now, this country...
00:05:38 ...has operated under a principle
00:05:41 That's a defense, general,
00:05:43 How are you gonna contain
00:05:46 ...running around
00:05:48 ...from country to country,
00:05:51 Containment don't hold water
00:05:54 We're gonna get hit again.
00:05:56 Unless we go out there,
00:05:59 Well,
00:06:01 Some people might just say that
00:06:05 And it started
00:06:07 What do you think?
00:06:08 Oh, Mr. President, you know I don't
00:06:13 I'll keep to the big picture
00:06:16 I do. Brother George?
00:06:18 Think?
00:06:20 Well, actually there's about 80,000 of
00:06:24 My point exactly.
00:06:25 And I'm sure you realize, of course,
00:06:29 ...it wasn't Iran or Iraq
00:06:31 It was Osama bin Laden.
00:06:33 I know it was bin Laden, George.
00:06:37 ...there's more terrorists out there...
00:06:39 ...than a religious nut
00:06:41 - Wolfie, you got that look on your face.
00:06:45 ...lran is the issue here.
00:06:47 It is the mothership of terrorism.
00:06:51 Vice?
00:06:54 Sir, as you know, I don't view
00:07:00 Since 9l11, there's no going back.
00:07:12 Well, then...
00:07:14 ...we'll go with Axis of Evil.
00:07:17 And now I'm tired of this sentence.
00:07:20 All right, before we go,
00:07:24 You too, turdblossom.
00:07:46 Do infants enjoy infancy...
00:07:49 ...as much as adults enjoy adultery?
00:08:00 Let's go. Go.
00:08:02 Why do kamikaze pilots
00:08:05 Because the Japs are crazy.
00:08:07 That's wrong. And you all suffer.
00:08:12 Buxenhall,
00:08:15 Sing "The Whiffenpoof Song."
00:08:30 - I can't hear you.
00:08:34 Yeah.
00:08:39 Lovely.
00:08:41 So...
00:08:43 ...enjoying ourselves, I see.
00:08:47 Good evening, young fellow

00:09:04 ...and God-given character.
00:09:05 - Yeah.
00:09:08 That, along with our family fortunes, is
00:09:12 Right.
00:09:13 But...
00:09:14 ...until you are Delta Kappsters...
00:09:17 ...you are all still pieces of garbage.
00:09:20 You, Buxenhall, quick.
00:09:22 How many of these brothers
00:09:24 Name every brother in this room.
00:09:26 Dieter...

00:09:34 - No good.
00:09:35 Seven. Seven out of 40. That's it?
00:09:39 Maybe you'll remember better
00:09:42 Yeah!
00:09:48 And what about you?
00:09:50 You think you can do any better,
00:09:52 - Yes, sir.
00:09:54 I think I can do better.
00:09:56 Let's hear.

00:10:22 - We have got a working brain here.
00:10:27 He may be from Texas...
00:10:29 ...but he's gonna be
00:10:32 Sir, I'm working for that.
00:10:35 You legacy?
00:10:37 Yeah, father, grandfather, all the way
00:10:40 Yeah, for any ignoramuses
00:10:43 ...his grandfather Prescott...
00:10:44 ...is our esteemed senator
00:10:47 My father's running for Congress
00:10:49 Yeah.
00:10:50 Planning on following
00:10:53 Hell, no. No way in the world
00:11:00 Congressman George Bush.
00:11:03 May I please speak with my son?
00:11:09 - Daddy's on the phone.
00:11:13 - Wait here. I'll be right back.
00:11:18 - I'll be right back.
00:11:29 Hello, Pop. Is that you?
00:11:30 What's this about?
00:11:32 What kind of trouble you in now?
00:11:34 Oh, it's penny ante. I swear, Poppy.
00:11:36 Hey, we beat Princeton.
00:11:38 Won the darn championship.
00:11:39 We were tearing down the goal posts.
00:11:43 But they arrested me on account of
00:11:47 Hill and Dowling had great games.
00:11:51 The only thing better than beating
00:11:54 You beat both of them when you won
00:11:57 Went to the first
00:11:59 The first two college national
00:12:01 Forty-seven and '48.
00:12:04 There are still photos of you...
00:12:06 ... and that team up on the walls
00:12:09 Tell you, things in this life
00:12:13 I could field, but I couldn't hit.
00:12:16 Went 0 for 3 against Cal in the finals.
00:12:18 How history goes.
00:12:20 Still, you were on the greatest
00:12:24 My father
00:12:27 ... if I ended up
00:12:30 They're gonna let me go, Poppy.
00:12:32 I have to get out of New Jersey
00:12:35 Which is okey-dokey with me.
00:12:38 Don't work that way, Junior.
00:12:41 Not to me, not to this family.
00:12:44 Now, I'm getting you out of this,
00:12:50 I don't wanna get
00:12:53 Ever.
00:12:55 - You hear me?
00:13:08 - Where is your grease gun?
00:13:11 Quit messing with me.
00:13:25 - Manuel.
00:13:28 I thought you just wanted me
00:13:33 Shit.
00:13:42 - What happened?
00:13:46 - Hey, watch this for me, will you?
00:13:49 - Watch it.
00:13:51 Hey, Miguel.
00:14:01 - Is that too hot?
00:14:09 Damn.
00:14:21 I need some help out here.
00:14:24 Bush, what you doing off the floor?
00:14:28 I'm having a drink, sir.
00:14:30 Get back there.
00:14:32 I need every swinging dick I got.
00:14:34 Yeah, I know that.
00:14:37 You know, I just need
00:14:40 You already had your break. This ain't
00:14:44 Now, haul that butt of yours
00:14:47 ...before something else happens.
00:14:49 All right. You know, sir...
00:14:52 ...I think this butt of mine just quit.
00:14:57 That's fine with me.
00:15:01 I'll just get the next coach out.
00:15:04 Thank you.
00:15:18 Look, how many times
00:15:22 I mean, I'm as happy as a rabbit
00:15:25 But you never say the words.
00:15:27 What words?
00:15:29 The L word.
00:15:30 The L word? What, lesbian?
00:15:35 What future are we gonna have
00:15:37 Come on, Fran, I'm crazy about you.
00:15:40 Okay?
00:15:42 We're gonna have a big church
00:15:45 What kind of church?
00:15:47 I grew up Episcopalian.
00:15:51 ...and then
00:15:53 Well, I'm a Baptist.
00:15:56 Episcopalian, Baptist,
00:15:58 You're gonna be one of us, a Bush.
00:16:01 You mean it? You swear it?
00:16:04 Look, then we're gonna move
00:16:07 Bright lights, big city.
00:16:10 I'm gonna work on Wall Street.
00:16:13 Told me, "Just say the word."
00:16:16 You gotta picture
00:16:18 We're gonna be on a big boat
00:16:22 - New York?
00:16:24 I never dreamt of that.
00:16:27 Start dreaming now.
00:16:33 - George.
00:16:35 Are you proposing to me?
00:16:42 If I had a rock big enough,
00:16:53 Freddie Mac, here we go,
00:16:56 Oh, I love this song. Come on, honey.
00:16:58 - Come on. Get on up here, girl.
00:17:02 Come on, baby.
00:17:13 Yeah.
00:17:15 Come on, my boy.
00:17:17 Damn right, brother.
00:17:36 - See you later, George. Tell Barbara hi.
00:17:39 - Thanks for coming.
00:17:41 Hey, guys.
00:17:42 Tell him... Tell him that I won't be able
00:17:46 No, that's the soonest I can do it.
00:17:49 And hold my phone calls.
00:17:54 Let's see now. Sit down.
00:17:58 If I remember correctly, you didn't like
00:18:02 ...or the oil-rig job.
00:18:05 Working in the investment firm
00:18:09 That ranch-hand thing, Arizona.
00:18:13 Didn't exactly finish up...
00:18:15 ...with flying colors
00:18:18 We're still not out of that one.
00:18:20 Now this gal, Suzie. Shooting off
00:18:25 - Wait. How did you know about that?
00:18:28 That's a danged lie, Poppy.
00:18:31 I used a condom. I'm not dumb.
00:18:34 What are you cut out for?
00:18:36 Partying, chasing tail, driving drunk?
00:18:40 What do you think you are?
00:18:43 You're a Bush. Act like one.
00:18:46 You can't even hold a job.
00:18:48 We always worked for our living.
00:18:50 It's time you joined the rest of us...
00:18:52 ...and decided what it is
00:18:55 I know, Poppy.
00:18:57 I'm just having a devil of a time
00:19:00 Well, then figure it out soon, Junior.
00:19:04 Your brother Jeb
00:19:07 What did you get? Cs?
00:19:09 You only get one bite at the apple.
00:19:11 Well, Jeb's not me
00:19:18 Look, what I'd really love...
00:19:19 I mean, what I'd really love to do
00:19:24 What? You can't play.
00:19:28 Coach? You're fishing
00:19:31 Something real.
00:19:33 I started out in the oil fields.
00:19:35 No, I'll try harder, Poppy, I promise.
00:19:39 No, I can do it.
00:19:41 Can you? Can you really?
00:19:44 You agreed to work
00:19:46 ...and you haven't
00:19:50 In our family, the Bush family...
00:19:53 ...we honor our commitments.
00:20:00 I'll take care of this...
00:20:03 ...young woman.
00:20:13 You disappoint me, Junior.
00:20:16 Deeply disappoint me.
00:20:20 Is that it?
00:20:24 Yeah.
00:20:37 Almost three minutes behind, Rafael.
00:20:41 My running times are better than ever
00:20:44 I'm back down from 7-minute miles
00:20:48 I mean, honestly, I'm probably
00:20:51 I heard your father
00:20:54 Yeah, second fastest, maybe.
00:20:56 He had endurance,
00:20:58 What about Clinton?
00:21:00 My mother waddles faster
00:21:02 And my pulse is only 35I 40.
00:21:05 We need you around.
00:21:10 Thank you.
00:21:11 Mr. President...
00:21:14 ...if there was an E. coli breakout
00:21:19 ...would you take the chance of eating
00:21:23 Why are you bringing this up?
00:21:24 I mean, you know I got tasters
00:21:27 If there was a 1 percent chance
00:21:30 ...would you eat the lettuce
00:21:34 One percent?
00:21:36 No. Probably not.
00:21:38 Most people wouldn't, sir.
00:21:40 And that's the dark side.
00:21:42 The 1 percent chance of a nuclear
00:21:46 ...or God help us,
00:21:49 We'd have 200 million Americans
00:21:55 Why are you
00:21:57 Vice, I mean, you know
00:22:01 Because I'm more worried now
00:22:05 And you know
00:22:08 I just wanna know
00:22:12 Mr. President...
00:22:15 ...this is a fulcrum point in history.
00:22:20 The Middle East, 9l11,
00:22:24 Everything is coming together
00:22:27 Now, with all due respect, sir...
00:22:29 ...I don't think this executive branch
00:22:33 - Didn't we get the Patriot Act through?
00:22:38 All right, Vice, so, what do you want
00:22:42 I mean, look, we're on top of the
00:22:46 ...these Internet carriers.
00:22:48 We're tracking, what,
00:22:51 - We got this Guantanemera open.
00:22:53 Nobody's gonna be hearing
00:22:56 Sir, I served your father.
00:22:59 And he was an able
00:23:01 And he won the Iraq war.
00:23:05 But he, myself and Powell...
00:23:10 ...we let that momentum slip away.
00:23:13 And if we hadn't...
00:23:14 ...we wouldn't be looking down
00:23:17 I told my father the same thing
00:23:19 "Take the sucker out."
00:23:22 So, what do you think the odds are
00:23:26 Well, according to our sources,
00:23:30 - But even if it was 1 percent...
00:23:34 We gotta sell the American people...
00:23:36 ...okay, and Colin.
00:23:38 The Commander in Chief
00:23:41 He has constitutionally
00:23:44 And you have the capacity
00:23:49 Okay.
00:23:52 What's that thing you got there?
00:23:54 This is a sign-off.
00:23:56 It authorizes us...
00:23:59 ...to use "interrogation techniques...
00:24:02 ...against unlawful
00:24:05 ...with maximal
00:24:09 Like pulling out their toenails?
00:24:11 No sir.
00:24:15 ...means utilizing fear scenarios...
00:24:17 ...like dogs or isolation...
00:24:21 ...or simulated drowning
00:24:25 ...or enforced stress positions,
00:24:30 Kind of reminds me
00:24:35 Remember,
00:24:37 No torture.
00:24:38 But it includes our citizens too.
00:24:41 If they are aiding and abetting
00:24:46 Makes sense.
00:24:47 Still, I can see all these
00:24:51 The Kyoto bullshit was bad enough.
00:24:53 Now it'll be all the sobbing
00:24:57 Let me take a look at it.
00:25:03 Only three pages? Good.
00:25:05 The Office of Legal Counsel
00:25:07 - I got it, Vice, I'll look at it.
00:25:10 ...with Congress in recess,
00:25:13 - I said, I'll look at it.
00:25:16 I'll let you finish your lunch.
00:25:23 Oh, Vice...
00:25:26 ...when we're in meetings
00:25:28 ...I just want you to keep a lid on it.
00:25:31 I thought I was, sir.
00:25:32 No, you heard me.
00:25:35 You know, because, remember,
00:25:38 I'm the decider.
00:25:45 - I totally agree, sir.
00:26:24 Ninety, 45, 90 is the plan, sir.
00:26:29 Ninety for prep.
00:26:30 Moving 150,000 troops into Kuwait...
00:26:32 ...building the airfields,
00:26:35 Then air strikes for 45 days.
00:26:38 - Then 90 days of ground combat.
00:26:41 I mean, I'm not looking
00:26:44 We put 500,000 pairs of boots
00:26:47 We planned for any possibility.
00:26:49 I think the Pentagon can wrestle
00:26:52 Go light. Like Afghanistan.
00:26:54 Blitz the bejesus out of them
00:26:56 Total shock and awe, Mr. President.
00:26:59 Shock and awe. I like it. I like that.
00:27:01 So when can we go?
00:27:02 Well, January,
00:27:05 What about April, May, June?
00:27:06 No, you can't start a war
00:27:08 They got scorchers out there,
00:27:11 All right.
00:27:14 Not with
00:27:17 I like the cut of your jib, Tommy.
00:27:19 I don't mean to rain
00:27:22 If you go through with this,
00:27:25 ...of 26 million Iraqi people
00:27:28 You break it, you own it.
00:27:31 You need to understand.
00:27:32 It's gonna suck the oxygen
00:27:35 It will become your first term.
00:27:37 Your father weighed this when we
00:27:40 Well, that may be so, Colin, but
00:27:44 ...and Saddam's still
00:27:46 I didn't say we're going yet.
00:27:47 I still think we can use
00:27:50 ...proof that he's got the WMDs.
00:27:52 You mean the 53rd card,
00:27:54 No, that would be you,
00:27:57 Hey, whoa, fellas.
00:28:00 I think we missed the side road.
00:28:10 Sir, I presume we'll win this war.
00:28:13 Then what?
00:28:15 What is our exit strategy?
00:28:17 Well, the DOD has already drawn up
00:28:21 ...which would include the exercise of
00:28:25 Well, I'm glad State's
00:28:27 What type of government is DOD
00:28:30 Come on, Spotty.
00:28:33 Look, fellas,
00:28:36 A free country is a peaceful country.
00:28:38 My dream is to see peace break out
00:28:42 So any kind of government will do.
00:28:45 Indeed.
00:28:47 Yeah, the cars are this way.
00:28:49 Half a mile maybe. Follow me.
00:29:03 Boy, we're not seeing
00:29:05 Well, this is a guy
00:29:09 So just a lot of development there.
00:29:11 He wasn't the starter for the first half
00:29:14 ... so he's continuing to evolve.
00:29:18 They're at 11,
00:29:21 Randall under pressure,
00:29:23 ... and Texas has it.
00:29:25 - Yes!
00:29:27 - Yes!
00:29:31 Redding knocked it loose...
00:29:33 ... and Jackson cashes in.

00:30:40 I've had just about enough
00:30:44 You had enough of me?
00:30:46 I'm mighty glad to hear that.
00:30:48 Because I've had enough of you...
00:30:50 ...for a lifetime...

00:33:09 Your dad's a true statesman.
00:33:10 He can take out

00:33:15 ...that I'm ready to get
00:33:19 You're not talking about oil now?
00:33:21 No, I ain't.
00:33:23 Because a sign has come unto me.
00:33:26 What has come unto you?
00:33:27 This July 6th, what notable event
00:33:31 You're birthday, wasn't it?
00:33:33 We already celebrated.
00:33:34 Yes, and George Mahon
00:33:36 ...his retirement from Congress

00:33:41 This, and right on my birthday.
00:33:43 And now that he's gone, boys,
00:33:47 ...is in play for a Republican.
00:33:50 And that Republican

00:34:32 ...my husband.
00:34:34 How do you do? I'm Don Evans.
00:34:40 Oh, George!
00:34:45 Hey, Suzie, how are you?
00:34:46 Good to see you. Skeeter.
00:34:48 What's up, Bush? How you doing?
00:34:50 Can I get that beer, Jan?
00:34:52 You give me that laundry right here.
00:34:57 I have to borrow him for one...
00:35:00 - Laura.
00:35:03 - You got it.
00:35:05 Laura, come here.
00:35:08 I'd like for you to meet
00:35:11 - Laura Welch.
00:35:17 You know, I remember seeing you
00:35:20 We were in the 7th grade together
00:35:24 San Jacinto, yeah.
00:35:26 Year after I moved to Houston.
00:35:28 I don't know how I could have missed
00:35:31 - Because I wasn't a cheerleader.
00:35:34 I've only been trying to get you two
00:35:37 Joe, can you put some more burgers
00:35:40 - Dang.
00:35:42 I gotta go give him a hand.
00:35:44 George, got your clean laundry
00:35:47 Thanks, hon.
00:35:54 So, what do you do, Laura?
00:35:57 I read, I smoke, I admire.
00:36:02 When you do admire,
00:36:05 People who write, who read.
00:36:11 Actually, I'm reading something
00:36:14 Yeah, a very engaging book.
00:36:16 Oh, what is it?
00:36:17 Barry Goldwater's
00:36:21 - Jan.
00:36:23 I worked on Gene McCarthy's
00:36:26 Oh, no. No.
00:36:28 Well, looks like we're hitting it off
00:36:32 Well, I don't think politics
00:36:35 There's more to people
00:36:37 I like that. I like that.
00:36:39 Yeah, much more so than me,
00:36:43 Well, I just think it's important to see
00:36:50 I read in the paper
00:36:53 Yes, ma'am, I am.
00:36:54 I don't believe in forcing myself
00:36:56 So that's why I'm just gonna ask
00:37:00 Oh, well,
00:37:03 I live in Austin.
00:37:07 Not that I wouldn't consider it.
00:37:09 Well, thank you for that.
00:37:11 - But if you win...
00:37:14 - please do something for education.
00:37:17 I was a teacher.
00:37:19 ...that can make a difference
00:37:21 Well, I'll tell you what. If I win,
00:37:26 - Yeah, right.
00:37:28 I like the way you think, you know?
00:37:32 And look.
00:37:36 You're a devil.
00:37:40 Devil in a white hat.
00:37:47 My daddy and granddaddy
00:37:49 They didn't have anything to do
00:37:52 Bush's daddy and granddaddy have
00:37:55 They don't know what
00:37:58 George Bush here
00:38:01 I stand on my own two feet,
00:38:03 When it comes to the integrity
00:38:05 ...what mess are you talking about?
00:38:07 Washington is the way it is...
00:38:09 ...because of the Yale and Harvard
00:38:13 I went to Texas Tech,
00:38:15 I went to UT Law,
00:38:18 I've spent half my life in Midland.
00:38:21 Yeah, maybe at the country club.
00:38:23 You're still an outsider
00:38:26 Mr. Hance will be nothing...
00:38:27 ...but a tax-and-spend errand boy
00:38:30 And he's really a carpetbagger
00:38:32 - That's below the belt, even for you.
00:38:35 Carpetbagger? This is my home. I've
00:38:39 You're still an Easterner as far as we're
00:38:43 My fellow Christians...
00:38:45 My fellow Christians
00:38:47 ...last week, Mr. Bush here used
00:38:51 ...to throw a beer bash
00:38:54 A Bush Bash.
00:38:55 He's trying to get students
00:38:58 ...by offering free alcohol to them.
00:39:01 Well, you've had a beer or two
00:39:04 Hell, yeah, but I'm not drinking
00:39:06 That may be the cool thing
00:39:08 ...but not here in good
00:39:11 He just kept hammering away at me,
00:39:13 The same lame stuff, tarring and
00:39:17 My father. What am I supposed to do?
00:39:19 Your family name has its advantages
00:39:24 Now, I'd still be with you
00:39:27 There's gotta be intelligent people
00:39:30 They should,
00:39:33 I got in some licks before he threw
00:39:38 - Well...
00:39:43 Your mother told me never to criticize
00:39:47 Honey, look, I got a thick hide.
00:39:49 You can tell me the truth.
00:39:52 Come on.
00:39:55 What, it was all bad?
00:39:59 It wasn't good.
00:40:10 Why did you do that?
00:40:15 That was crazy.
00:40:17 I told you I can take criticism.
00:40:19 - You see, I'm already over it.
00:40:23 Do not ask me for my opinion
00:40:26 Honey, look, I'm gonna be asking you
00:40:30 Not while we're driving then, please.
00:40:32 I never dated a woman quite like you,
00:40:35 Hey, I think...
00:40:37 I think you are the gal for me.
00:40:39 Look, you're one of
00:40:42 And since I'm one of the biggest
00:40:45 What do you think, huh?
00:40:48 - It kind of does.
00:40:57 - More than kind of.
00:41:03 The polls have now closed and
00:41:07 ... has defeated Republican candidate
00:41:11 ... in the race for
00:41:14 And while Bush garnered
00:41:19 ... Hance swept into the lead
00:41:28 Well, look at it this way.
00:41:30 You came closer than any Republican
00:41:33 First is first and second is nothing.
00:41:36 At least we won here in Midland.
00:41:38 The people who know you best
00:41:40 I should've stuck it right back up
00:41:44 Geo, you wanted to play fair.
00:41:47 You didn't wanna get in the gutter.
00:41:49 ...you can hold your head up.
00:41:55 It's a kick-ass, skull-crushing war,
00:41:57 - You'll get him next time.
00:42:00 - George.
00:42:02 There's no way I will ever be
00:42:48 How's it going, word guys?
00:42:51 ...on my foreign-policy speech
00:42:54 You'll get it. We just have to get
00:42:58 All right. You get your guys,
00:43:01 I'm going to bed after Sports Cap, so
00:43:06 - No excuses now.
00:43:08 Come on, sit down, get writing.
00:43:11 You think we can get this stuff in?
00:43:13 If we can't,
00:43:16 All right. Let me get our guy
00:43:19 Just to be safe, I wouldn't say 500,
00:43:24 - Continue.
00:43:25 ...is different from countries
00:43:28 While there are many dangers
00:43:31 ...the threat from Iraq stands alone."
00:43:33 I'll have to have this approved by
00:43:36 I'll get in touch with Tenet.
00:43:38 Okay.
00:43:40 George, it only takes
00:43:43 ... to produce enough uranium
00:43:46 Hank, I have already
00:43:48 ...with the vice president's office
00:43:50 This information comes from a single
00:43:54 It has not been confirmed.
00:43:56 Besides, Hank...
00:43:58 ...it's not solid enough
00:44:01 You're sure?
00:44:03 I just can't go with it.
00:44:09 Get me Mike again.
00:44:12 - Yeah?
00:44:15 ... but leave all the spice you can.
00:44:17 Okay, thanks.
00:44:19 Slight change of plans. It's out.
00:44:22 We got a lot of work to do
00:44:28 So, Karl, how long is this
00:44:31 - Card scheduled it for 45 minutes.
00:44:38 God. Spotty's getting old.
00:44:40 She needs a seeing-eye dog
00:44:42 You know,
00:44:44 You should have seen her.
00:44:47 - So you remember your lead?
00:44:49 Ronald Reagan believed that
00:44:53 ...and that we should strive to know
00:44:58 Looks like your balls have been put
00:45:01 - Helen Thomas.
00:45:03 ...how many times do I gotta tell you?
00:45:06 - And what else did I write down?
00:45:08 Right. Cold War.
00:45:09 Reagan didn't say,
00:45:11 ...will you take down the top
00:45:14 He said, "Tear it down. Tear it
00:45:18 - Good boy, Barney.
00:45:21 You know, I'm a lot more like him
00:45:24 And the world has to know clearly
00:45:27 Yeah.
00:45:29 What's that old battle-ax,
00:45:32 Did she say anything about,
00:45:38 She was talking about
00:45:40 ...for regime change there.
00:45:43 "What makes Saddam
00:45:46 What right do we have
00:45:48 Did you tell her I don't like mudsuckers
00:45:52 Did you tell her I don't like assholes
00:45:56 Did you tell her that I'm gonna kick
00:46:01 Well, I told her about half of that.
00:46:06 Only half?
00:46:17 Here's to turning 40
00:46:20 Nothing old about you
00:46:23 I think my jokes are funny.
00:46:26 To the best thing that ever came out
00:46:32 May all yours and Laura's dreams
00:46:34 - Each and every one of them.
00:46:37 I think Bushie wants to be
00:46:40 - Why not? I love baseball.
00:46:43 ...I just never could get into it!
00:46:45 You know who I grew up dreaming
00:46:47 - Who?
00:46:49 He was the greatest ever.
00:46:51 The problem is you couldn't hit
00:46:54 That's right, I am white. I'm white.
00:46:57 - Phone call for you, Mr. Bush.
00:47:02 - Who is it?
00:47:06 All right. All right, I'll get that
00:47:10 I'll see you in a while.
00:47:14 You guys, I'll be right back.
00:47:20 Poppy.
00:47:21 I just wanted to wish you
00:47:24 - Oh, thank you.
00:47:26 Oh, I am, very much so.
00:47:29 How's Laura?
00:47:32 Sweet as ever.
00:47:33 - And the girls?
00:47:35 We were just hoping
00:47:38 A good thing.
00:47:39 Your mother and I, we rarely get that.
00:47:42 You know, I'm gearing up to run in '88.
00:47:45 Yes, sir.
00:47:48 Your brother Jeb can't get away
00:47:52 How'd you like to lend a hand?
00:47:55 In what way?
00:47:57 Would you be willing
00:48:00 Help me run my campaign?
00:48:11 Yes or no?
00:48:14 We'll do the... We'll do the river.
00:48:16 So, what did he have to say?
00:48:18 Well...
00:48:20 ...looks like we're moving to D.C.
00:48:23 All right.
00:48:25 - Hey, all right.
00:48:32 All right.
00:48:46 Come on now.
00:49:06 Good morning.
00:49:09 Well, Jan beat me 6 to 1. I'm never
00:49:13 I think it's because I drank
00:49:17 You all right there?
00:49:18 Oh, I can't go on like this.
00:49:21 - I'm through.
00:49:23 Drinking.
00:49:25 Well, everyone knows you're trying.
00:49:28 Why don't you take today off?
00:49:29 Stay in bed.
00:49:31 No. I gotta do my miles.
00:49:34 My three miles.
00:49:38 I'll suck it up.
00:49:40 You know, George, Washington
00:49:44 For the girls.
00:49:48 Your father is running for president.
00:49:51 I think it's so nice of him
00:49:56 You could not have asked for
00:49:58 Confidence? He only called me
00:50:01 The point is, he asked you.
00:50:03 He wants you. Bushie, why do you
00:50:12 You gonna throw up?
00:50:15 Three miles.
00:51:37 You are my God and savior.
00:51:40 I always trust thee.
00:51:43 - In Jesus' name, Amen.
00:51:46 Amen.
00:51:49 We'll see you all next week.
00:51:51 - God bless you.
00:52:00 You hit a dry well,
00:52:02 Oh, yeah. Thank you.
00:52:04 - Thank you very much, sir.
00:52:15 Earle.
00:52:17 There's always this weight on me.
00:52:20 This heaviness.
00:52:22 And no matter how many times
00:52:25 ...that weight just won't lift.
00:52:32 W...
00:52:35 ...the Christian life
00:52:39 I got my moments
00:52:42 And I got to go to God, just like you,
00:52:46 But all I am is name.
00:52:48 People say that
00:52:51 ...but they don't know
00:52:53 I believe you, W.
00:52:55 And that's all right.
00:52:59 Now, look.
00:53:02 Look what you have achieved.
00:53:05 It's been, what, almost six months
00:53:08 Yes, sir.
00:53:10 Well, the good Lord sees that,
00:53:13 We're all proud of you.
00:53:15 The worst thing you could
00:53:19 "If only I could live it over again." No.
00:53:24 Born again, W, that's what you are.
00:53:27 God has spoken to you.
00:53:33 But it's what you
00:53:35 - You hear me, George?
00:53:37 I do. I hear you, Reverend,
00:53:40 For God so loved the world...
00:53:42 ...that he gave his only begotten son...
00:53:45 ...that whosoever believeth in him...
00:53:47 ...shall not perish
00:53:51 John 3:16.
00:53:54 Now take the baton. Reach out.
00:53:58 And beginning today...
00:54:00 ...I want you to treat
00:54:02 ...your friends, your enemies,
00:54:05 ...like they were gonna
00:54:08 Yes, sir.
00:54:09 You give that person
00:54:13 ...and do it without
00:54:16 ...and your life, I promise you...
00:54:17 ...will never be the same again.
00:54:25 You stay with it, W,
00:54:28 ...straight as A meets up and
00:54:33 And you will never be alone now
00:54:37 From all walks of life,
00:54:43 A nation, a Christian nation.
00:54:46 There are millions of us born again.
00:54:54 Can I ask you, Earle, to pray with me?
00:54:56 It would be my pride and joy
00:54:59 Thank you, sir.
00:55:07 Heavenly Father...
00:55:09 ...we humbly thank you
00:55:13 ...the wisdom, the strength
00:55:16 ...to know the power of your ways.
00:55:18 And may he always see the light
00:55:22 In Jesus' holy name, Amen.
00:55:26 Amen.
00:55:29 A set-up job.
00:55:31 Look, I'm a devout Christian.
00:55:36 No need for me to say
00:55:39 No, we're not looking to put words
00:55:42 Only to help you
00:55:45 ...who do not understand you at all.
00:55:48 If you say no it's gonna cost you votes.
00:55:50 And Karl knows his stuff,
00:55:53 It's just a matter of coding, Poppy.
00:55:58 It's all right, Genius Boy.
00:56:00 Go on, Karl.
00:56:02 Well, it's rephrasing things
00:56:07 I can show you this metric data,
00:56:10 Fellas, I appreciate your support.
00:56:12 Obviously need it.
00:56:14 Trying to learn the lingo, but...
00:56:17 Still an old-school Episcopalian
00:56:20 Junior here, I mean W,
00:56:26 All right, gentlemen.
00:56:29 - Thank you, Mr. Vice President.
00:56:32 - Thank you.
00:56:43 They all act like businessmen. They're
00:56:47 Come on. They're all protégés
00:56:51 Look, this is a bigtime change
00:56:53 People are hungering for faith.
00:56:55 Your mother said you're really reborn.
00:56:59 Well, as long as you stop drinking,
00:57:02 I'm not comfortable with this stuff.
00:57:05 Inauthentic.
00:57:08 I'm trusting you to vet everything.
00:57:11 I'm just looking for every edge, Poppy.
00:57:13 Check this spot out.
00:57:19 Bush and Dukakis on crime.
00:57:21 Bush supports the death penalty
00:57:24 Dukakis not only opposes
00:57:27 ... he allowed first-degree murderers
00:57:30 One was Willie Horton,
00:57:33 ... stabbing him 19 times.
00:57:35 Despite a life sentence...
00:57:37 ... Horton received
00:57:40 Horton fled,
00:57:42 ... stabbing the man
00:57:45 Weekend prison passes,
00:57:48 This guy Willie Horton
00:57:51 This and Dukakis
00:57:53 ...sitting in the tank are gonna
00:57:57 Strong stuff. Naughty.
00:58:00 But you can't run
00:58:03 You've got to use another pipeline.
00:58:05 I'm ahead of you, Poppy,
00:58:07 We outsourced it to
00:58:10 Roger Ailes and his group,
00:58:13 Well, that's good work, son.
00:58:18 Earning your spurs now.
00:58:20 Thank you, sir.
00:58:27 Here is Tom Brokaw, NBC News.
00:58:30 Good evening,
00:58:32 ... who's been in government housing
00:58:35 ... will continue
00:58:42 George Bush is
00:58:52 We should send
00:58:55 That's a good idea.
00:58:59 You look down. What is it?
00:59:01 - Congratulations.
00:59:08 Just wondering what's
00:59:10 What do you mean?
00:59:15 My father's not gonna give me
00:59:18 And I'm not gonna sit around,
00:59:23 George...
00:59:28 I've been a lifelong student
00:59:33 From what I see, you've got
00:59:40 But you need to go
00:59:44 I don't know how else to say it,
00:59:53 George.
00:59:56 George, come on to bed.
00:59:59 Rove hit me
01:00:02 Yeah, what was that?
01:00:04 That I'll never get out
01:00:07 They'll all keep saying,
01:00:10 I mean, who ever remembers
01:00:14 John Quincy Adams.
01:00:18 Yeah, but that was like
01:00:22 You know what? I wish he'd lost.
01:00:24 What?
01:00:26 - How can you say that?
01:00:29 - I got crazy, mixed feelings about it.
01:00:32 You helped him win the presidency.
01:00:36 No matter what I do,
01:00:39 Okay? Never.
01:00:44 What's the bottom line, George?
01:00:46 That Baghdad has...
01:00:47 ...chemical and biological weapons
01:00:51 Nukes? In some stage or other?
01:00:53 That's still problematic, sir.
01:00:55 ...but with moderate confidence we can
01:01:00 But definitely this guy
01:01:03 ...sarin, VX,
01:01:07 Given the dual-use provisions of the
01:01:11 Until he launches.
01:01:12 Their military is deteriorated,
01:01:15 Why is British Intelligence
01:01:19 ...is trying to buy up a few hundred
01:01:23 - We still have no backup on that.
01:01:25 Well, we know this:
01:01:29 That Saddam is talking to Zarqawi,
01:01:33 ...and Atta met Saddam's
01:01:37 There is no doubt that they're linked.
01:01:40 No doubt, Dick?
01:01:42 No doubt at all?
01:01:45 No doubt, Colin.
01:01:52 What do you say, Rummy?
01:01:53 Sir, the absence of evidence
01:01:56 Just because you do not have
01:02:01 ...does not mean you have...
01:02:02 Can your intel say
01:02:04 Well, my people think they've found
01:02:12 But we also have leads
01:02:15 And to the areas east, west,
01:02:19 - Well, let's find them, Rummy.
01:02:22 We know this guy Saddam's
01:02:24 We know the U.N.'s
01:02:27 We got a lot of maybes, probablys
01:02:29 ...which John Q. Public
01:02:31 We can present better,
01:02:35 What we have is a slam-dunk
01:02:37 Slam-dunk?
01:02:38 What have you been drinking,
01:02:41 What you need
01:02:43 ...who can argue cases
01:02:45 These snapshots
01:02:47 ...on tape is just another
01:02:50 Sir, you know,
01:02:52 ...the United Nations is gonna want
01:02:56 The old Europe.
01:02:57 Your father went to the U.N.,
01:02:59 ...and it took him six months, as I
01:03:03 And he got Congress too.
01:03:05 My gosh, Colin, you're the finest
01:03:08 ...we all know that.
01:03:09 But don't you think the Gulf War
01:03:13 Do we really need six months
01:03:17 ...to knock off a tin-pot dictator
01:03:21 You're right, Don,
01:03:23 And you
01:03:26 ...learned the lessons of Vietnam.
01:03:31 Now, I think we're all adults
01:03:34 ...and we recognize that 9l11,
01:03:40 ...and it was...
01:03:41 ...was also an opportunity this time
01:03:47 Drain the swamp.
01:03:49 Sweep up all the bad guys
01:03:54 Things related and not.
01:03:57 Otherwise, sir, they will be back.
01:04:00 I thought we just did that
01:04:02 We keep the focus
01:04:04 Goodness gracious, if you want
01:04:08 You know there were no real targets
01:04:12 - It was an exercise.
01:04:15 ...if we don't act,
01:04:18 And that's the bottom line.
01:04:20 So this is all about politics, Karl?
01:04:22 I'm confused
01:04:25 Okay, let's stay on message here.
01:04:27 Look, Genius Boy is just here
01:04:30 You see, sir...
01:04:32 ...what I'm pressing for here...
01:04:35 ...is why?
01:04:37 Why are we doing this?
01:04:40 Why Iraq?
01:04:41 - Why now?
01:04:44 We had America
01:04:48 That is, if people had been
01:04:51 But we blew it.
01:04:53 And now instead of taking down
01:04:57 ...in the mountains
01:05:00 ...we're way outside of the box
01:05:02 Why aren't we trusting the system?
01:05:06 Why have we veered off
01:05:08 ...where we accept without debate
01:05:12 ...can defeat terrorism
01:05:14 ...or intel agencies
01:05:16 I just don't get it, Mr. President,
01:05:20 And I'd be mighty sure before
01:05:25 - Here we are...
01:05:28 Let me finish.
01:05:33 Here we are...
01:05:35 ...changing the whole way
01:05:39 ...in response to a small but dedicated
01:05:44 - Are we losing our perspective here?
01:05:50 The Trade Center was bombed in '93.
01:05:52 We had a huge attack
01:05:55 And those who did it
01:05:59 Big difference.
01:06:00 Oklahoma terrorists
01:06:06 Colin...
01:06:08 ...I swear, you're beginning
01:06:11 Oh, don't patronize me,
01:06:13 You save that for speeches
01:06:16 You think, really...
01:06:18 You think,
01:06:21 ...that you can appease Islamic
01:06:28 You wanna know what I see,
01:06:31 I see a world
01:06:34 ...America's reserves are gone.
01:06:38 Done.
01:06:39 Demand is up...
01:06:41 ...30, 40 percent.
01:06:42 And we have two oceans
01:06:48 You think we're gonna
01:06:52 We're at 5 percent
01:06:54 We use 25 percent of its energy.
01:06:58 You think Russia and China
01:07:01 ...when they need
01:07:04 Eighty percent of the world's
01:07:08 ...are right here in Eurasia,
01:07:13 Oil, gas, water.
01:07:17 Iraq alone,
01:07:21 ...60 of 80 oil fields
01:07:25 And probably another 100 billion
01:07:28 - They are floating in a sea of oil.
01:07:31 ...in more than 120 countries
01:07:34 If we include Iraq,
01:07:39 We are at the fertile
01:07:44 The Tigris-Euphrates,
01:07:47 We drain this swamp, like Don says.
01:07:51 We rebuild it.
01:07:52 We develop its resources
01:07:54 They own it, we run it.
01:07:57 Pipelines, sea lanes, their resources
01:08:00 A nexus of power that won't be broken
01:08:04 If we stick to the plan.
01:08:07 So, what is our real exit strategy
01:08:17 There is no exit.
01:08:22 We stay.
01:08:30 Spoken like a true oilman.
01:08:33 You were part of the plan, Colin,
01:08:35 You backed our dominance in
01:08:39 You agreed
01:08:41 ...another military-economic rival
01:08:44 - I don't understand...
01:08:46 ...on terrorists is like trying to hit
01:08:50 We invoke preemption...
01:08:52 The right to use nukes
01:08:55 - and I guarantee you, Paul,
01:08:58 Three, four wars at a time.
01:09:01 That's not new world order,
01:09:04 There's got to be some
01:09:07 No one's against cooperation,
01:09:10 - As long as we're calling the shots.
01:09:14 Lest we forget...
01:09:17 ...where do you see
01:09:19 Right in the heart of it all.
01:09:21 What's missing?
01:09:24 Iran.
01:09:27 The mother lode.
01:09:28 Third largest oil reserve in the world.
01:09:32 Forty percent of the world's oil...
01:09:35 ...goes right through here,
01:09:38 Control Iran, control Eurasia,
01:09:43 Empire.
01:09:46 Real empire.
01:09:49 Nobody will fuck with us again.
01:09:58 It's big, Vice.
01:10:03 But you go out here and you
01:10:07 The working Joe's
01:10:09 We're talking 9l11 terrorists...
01:10:12 ...WMDs.
01:10:14 We're talking
01:10:18 We're talking Axis of Evil.
01:10:20 Sir...
01:10:22 ...you have the touch, not I.
01:10:31 You know,
01:10:33 ...it was a dangerous world.
01:10:35 But we knew exactly
01:10:38 We knew it was us versus them,
01:10:43 Today...
01:10:45 ...we're not so sure who the "they" are,
01:10:49 Now, I'm not gonna
01:10:51 I'm a gut player, always have been.
01:10:53 And I am just so bone-tired
01:10:56 He's always
01:10:59 I don't want our soldiers
01:11:01 We have got to get this war
01:11:04 You say go now, sir, and Tommy
01:11:08 We could have 300,000 troops
01:11:10 ...by early January
01:11:13 I want you to keep
01:11:15 For the record, this is against
01:11:19 We agreed with our allies
01:11:22 As Yogi Berra said,
01:11:27 Colin, you know what a burn card is?
01:11:29 No, sir.
01:11:30 Someday I gotta teach you
01:11:34 You keep selling our friends
01:11:36 ...but whatever they say, in the end,
01:11:40 Yes, sir.
01:11:41 Now, are you gonna be with us
01:11:50 - I'm with you, sir.
01:11:53 All right, gentlemen,
01:11:55 Best yet.
01:11:56 Let's close this out.
01:12:13 Well, you've done
01:12:15 Even though I traded Sammy Sosa?
01:12:18 We all make mistakes.
01:12:21 Center field. This is my favorite spot
01:12:24 You know, whenever things get rough,
01:12:28 ...I just come out here.
01:12:31 Right now,
01:12:34 Not the White House lawn.
01:12:37 This guy Saddam's really put a burr
01:12:40 Saddam, what I call him now.
01:12:43 If you emphasize the first syllable...
01:12:45 ...it means in Arabic, "the little boy
01:12:49 Well, he's one shoe-shining
01:12:52 He gassed his own people,
01:12:54 ...invades Kuwait.
01:12:56 It's time to back him down
01:12:59 You know, like you done Noriega.
01:13:01 Well, you know...
01:13:02 ...l've always believed in leaving
01:13:06 ...but Saddam, this can't stand.
01:13:09 I'm not gonna let
01:13:11 ...one quarter
01:13:15 I got a feeling about this.
01:13:17 How I handle it...
01:13:19 ...one way or another, is gonna
01:13:23 We don't wanna have another draw,
01:13:26 Sloppy ending.
01:13:28 It's critical I make the right call.
01:13:31 For myself.
01:13:33 For the world.
01:13:34 Well, you will, Poppy.
01:13:36 I'm sure.
01:13:37 You know, just don't think about it
01:13:39 ...because it just screws you all up.
01:13:42 Sorry to hear about
01:13:45 No.
01:13:46 I was a dang fool thinking
01:13:49 He was just jerking my chain,
01:13:52 You own a baseball team.
01:13:55 Spare yourself the headache.
01:13:59 It may be better
01:14:02 What do you mean?
01:14:05 Just better.
01:14:10 So how's Jeb?
01:14:12 You know, I think your brother's
01:14:15 - I really do.
01:14:17 He's always had that ambition.
01:14:19 Oh, who knows these things.
01:14:22 But that kid could...
01:14:23 Well, one day...
01:14:26 ...he could even be president.
01:14:29 Gotta be getting back.
01:14:31 Nice seeing you, son.
01:14:33 You keep it up.
01:14:35 And I'll throw out that first ball
01:14:43 In facing down
01:14:45 ... President Bush has rewritten
01:14:48 The temporary cease-fire
01:14:51 ... if Iraq releases all POWs
01:14:55 For all intents and purposes,
01:14:59 A smashing victory for the Allies.
01:15:01 A crushing and embarrassing defeat
01:15:03 The Iraqi POWs march
01:15:06 ... trudging past burning oil fields
01:15:10 Gentlemen, well done.
01:15:12 Dick, could you and Colin stay?
01:15:14 Congratulations, general.
01:15:17 Good job.
01:15:27 A hundred hours, my gosh.
01:15:30 I guess we finally kicked
01:15:34 It makes you wanna go all the way
01:15:37 Probably get there in two days.
01:15:40 But to be an occupying power
01:15:44 ...the coalition would fall apart.
01:15:46 We'd be out there all alone.
01:15:50 Going after Saddam,
01:15:53 That's not our job.
01:15:55 And how many Americans
01:15:58 You got an election in November.
01:16:02 No.
01:16:04 Gone far enough.
01:16:07 Nice job, fellas.
01:16:09 Cleanest war in history.
01:16:12 Proud of you.
01:16:14 This is the proudest day
01:16:24 Governor Clinton
01:16:27 He has won this presidential race...
01:16:29 ... along with his running mate,
01:16:31 In spite of his overwhelming victory
01:16:34 ... the people did not return
01:16:37 A stunning reversal of fortune
01:16:41 ... whose long career was
01:16:44 ... a third-party candidate, Ross Perot,
01:16:48 All of which may have combined
01:16:53 The best person didn't win tonight.
01:16:56 The best man did not win, George.
01:17:02 He's so beneath you.
01:17:04 He doesn't deserve to be president.
01:17:07 And he wouldn't be
01:17:10 You were a great president, Poppy.
01:17:13 Great president.
01:17:18 I gave it all I could.
01:17:23 I thought the war
01:17:38 Well...
01:17:40 ...if you just would've clobbered
01:17:44 - What?
01:17:46 ...gone all the way to Baghdad.
01:17:51 Has he been imbibing
01:17:53 Don't start. Don't start that.
01:17:57 Finishing.
01:17:58 Okay, that's it. You can stop right now.
01:18:02 I won that war.
01:18:03 Of course you did, Poppy.
01:18:06 Of course you did.
01:18:09 Can you all leave, please,
01:18:12 - and this is the first indication
01:18:17 - What was that about?
01:18:20 I've never seen him like this before.
01:18:22 Well, it's hard, you know?
01:18:25 You know what? If he would've listened
01:18:29 I mean, I wish he had more of Mom
01:18:33 That's the difference maker.
01:18:36 That is not what this is about.
01:18:37 It's his health,
01:18:40 He's just tired, and he's old.
01:18:42 I can't watch him like this.
01:18:44 You know, it hurts too damn much
01:18:47 I'd never let this happen to me.
01:19:00 Governor of Texas?
01:19:02 You must be joking.
01:19:05 No, I'm dead serious.
01:19:06 Well, how are you gonna beat
01:19:09 Look, Ann Richards
01:19:12 Karl's done the polls.
01:19:14 I'm gonna make
01:19:17 ...pay for the things
01:19:19 Leave it alone.
01:19:21 Besides, I won that campaign.
01:19:23 What's at issue...?
01:19:25 He's already running
01:19:28 - One Bush at a time, son.
01:19:31 How do you expect us to go
01:19:34 I'm not asking you to.
01:19:37 Laura, how do you feel
01:19:40 W knows how I feel.
01:19:41 Look, you don't understand.
01:19:44 So you're not asking us,
01:19:48 The fact is, you can't win.
01:19:51 Why do you say that?
01:19:53 Because you're too much like me.
01:19:55 You're loud
01:19:58 Now, Jeb is like your father.
01:20:00 He thinks before he speaks.
01:20:02 He's got his feet on the ground.
01:20:04 - Barb, don't be so hard on him.
01:20:09 I'm not gonna say something
01:20:12 Son, just consider holding off
01:20:16 You won't have Richards
01:20:19 We'll be able to give you
01:20:21 No, no, I get it. I get it.
01:20:23 You want Jeb
01:20:25 Come off it.
01:20:29 I want you both to have
01:20:35 Well, I'm running this time, Poppy.
01:20:38 You hear me?
01:20:40 I'm running now.
01:20:42 Here they come.
01:20:45 I know, don't swing at anything
01:20:47 Mr. Bush, you didn't talk much
01:20:49 What are your plans for reform?
01:20:51 Well, I'm gonna deregulate
01:20:53 ...so that teachers
01:20:55 ...can develop programs
01:20:58 How are you proposing
01:21:00 Well, we need to make a wholesale
01:21:05 ...which is illiterate children.
01:21:07 You need to teach a child to read...
01:21:09 ...then he or her will be able
01:21:11 We're in the very early stages
01:21:14 How do you plan
01:21:17 I for one will not stand
01:21:20 How do you know
01:21:22 ...if you have a system
01:21:25 What about our failed schools?
01:21:26 - Think the state needs to take over?
01:21:30 We must have the attitude
01:21:33 ...regardless of where they're raised,
01:21:35 You know,
01:21:38 "Is our children learning?"
01:21:40 Okay, fellas, that's it. We'll see you
01:21:43 - Mr. Bush. Mr. Bush. Mr. Bush.
01:21:47 "Suckles"?
01:21:49 Look, you're the son of a president.
01:21:51 You graduated Yale.
01:21:53 You went to Harvard,
01:21:55 If you can't stand in front of those guys
01:21:58 ...and come up
01:22:01 ...then what the hell
01:22:04 Just tell me what to do.
01:22:06 Look, if I need to read the
01:22:10 Okay, four food groups.
01:22:13 Crime, education,
01:22:15 And if they ask you what time of day
01:22:18 We must teach our children to read.
01:22:20 What about welfare?
01:22:21 We must hold the fathers
01:22:24 - Because we love babies.
01:22:26 Crime?
01:22:28 End early release and all paroles
01:22:32 Citizens got the right to carry
01:22:36 My opponent disagrees about that.
01:22:39 But Texas got the highest rate
01:22:42 And still Miss Richards' hair
01:22:44 She doesn't believe the citizens
01:22:47 If you believe that,
01:22:49 Okay, so, what about
01:22:52 - In Texas, we call that walking.
01:22:56 It was a mistake. I was young.
01:22:59 I don't wanna give your
01:23:02 "If old Governor Bush done it,
01:23:05 - Hey, George.
01:23:07 - Good luck on your campaign.
01:23:09 - Hope you win.
01:23:11 Yes, sir.
01:23:12 What do you say to, "George W. Bush
01:23:16 His wealth was produced
01:23:18 ...and bailouts arranged
01:23:20 Ann Richards can badmouth me
01:23:23 I've created
01:23:25 I run a Major League baseball team.
01:23:26 I'm in touch with real people in Texas.
01:23:30 I work with them every day
01:23:32 Talk to the fans, hot dog vendors.
01:23:36 Because truly, deep down inside...
01:23:39 ...you know I'm a guy like you,
01:23:42 Fabulous. Fabulous, W.
01:23:44 What it all comes down to...
01:23:46 ...is who Joe Voter wants to sit down
01:23:49 And guess who that is.
01:23:51 Just remember
01:23:53 So anything about the issues,
01:23:56 I'll tell you what to say.
01:23:58 You're not gonna tell me
01:24:00 I'm gonna tell you what I want.
01:24:03 This campaign
01:24:05 You got it, W. I'm just a little fairy...
01:24:08 ...putting down
01:24:12 And, Karl...
01:24:13 ...this time I'm gonna
01:24:21 Your father's here to see you,
01:24:24 Poppy's here right now?
01:24:26 - All right, send him in, Evie.
01:24:28 Yeah. You like that, don't you?
01:24:30 Put your pants on.
01:24:33 - How are you, son?
01:24:37 Got your speech ready?
01:24:38 Yeah, I was just getting ready
01:24:41 This is a moment you'll never forget...
01:24:43 ...being inaugurated for the first time.
01:24:46 Try and take a photograph
01:24:49 ...so you can savor it
01:24:52 ...as they always do.
01:24:55 All right, well, I'll try and do that.
01:25:00 Yeah, I sure am glad
01:25:02 I'm gonna acknowledge him
01:25:07 It's been hard on him,
01:25:11 I wish I could've been
01:25:14 It would've been something.
01:25:16 Why do you just feel bad about Jeb?
01:25:20 Why don't you feel good about me?
01:25:23 Well, of course I do.
01:25:26 And...
01:25:33 I brought you these.
01:25:38 They were your grandfather's.
01:25:41 The only real thing he ever gave me.
01:25:48 Wear them well.
01:25:57 See you at the inauguration, son.
01:26:05 Well, what did he have to say?
01:26:11 "These cufflinks
01:26:15 My father, Prescott, gave them to me
01:26:20 They were mine.
01:26:22 I'm sure you will make
01:26:24 It's nice, W.
01:26:26 You think he might ever be able
01:26:29 ...instead of using these notes?
01:26:32 - You think he might be happy with me?
01:26:35 Let me help you.
01:26:45 Well, Jebby, that's just great.
01:26:47 Keep Florida warm. You say hi
01:26:50 Governor, the reverend.
01:26:52 Yeah, we'll talk later.
01:26:54 - Earle.
01:26:56 - Hey, thanks a bunch for coming.
01:26:58 Hey, go ahead, take a seat.
01:27:01 - Hey, how's the show coming along?
01:27:04 Over 100 million Americans
01:27:08 ...right here in North America.
01:27:11 You don't say. That's great.
01:27:15 So, listen...
01:27:18 ...I asked you here today to discuss
01:27:25 I've heard the call.
01:27:26 Well, I know.
01:27:28 Don't forget, I've been the witness
01:27:31 No, that's not what I mean.
01:27:33 I mean, I've heard the call.
01:27:35 And I believe that God
01:27:45 - Truly?
01:27:47 But I think that something
01:27:50 And at that time,
01:27:53 And, you know,
01:27:56 Well, a man don't
01:28:00 ...unless the good Lord wants him to.
01:28:02 The truth is I don't wanna run.
01:28:04 I mean, it's like Moses. I mean,
01:28:07 But finally, he just knew.
01:28:10 My father was president,
01:28:13 I know the price.
01:28:15 I'd be happy just buying
01:28:19 And if I run for president,
01:28:23 But I feel
01:28:26 And I must do it.
01:28:29 I must.
01:28:34 Well, then, you must, son.
01:28:37 - I'd like to pray over it.
01:28:43 Dear Lord...
01:28:45 ...we pray that you will watch over...
01:28:48 ...and always shine your light on
01:28:53 In Jesus' name.
01:28:56 Amen.
01:28:57 Amen.
01:29:03 Last draft. I promise.
01:29:07 Yellowcake again.
01:29:10 I'm burned out. I've gotta get some
01:29:20 We finally got it in.
01:29:22 Page eight. Uranium in Africa.
01:29:25 Took long enough.
01:29:26 British Government has learned
01:29:30 ...recently sought significant quantities
01:29:35 Our intelligence sources tells us...
01:29:38 ...that he has attempted to purchase
01:29:41 ... suitable for
01:29:44 Evidence from intelligence sources...
01:29:47 ... and secret communications
01:29:51 ...reveal that Saddam Hussein...
01:29:53 ...aids and protects terrorists.
01:29:56 Including members of al Qaeda.
01:30:00 Imagine those 19 hijackers...
01:30:02 ... with other weapons
01:30:06 ... this time armed
01:30:09 It would take one bomb,
01:30:12 ... one crate slipped into this country...
01:30:15 ... to bring a day of horror
01:30:19 Facing clear evidence of peril...
01:30:23 ... we cannot wait for the final proof...
01:30:26 ... the smoking gun that can come
01:30:33 The liberty we prize
01:30:38 It is God's gift to humanity.
01:30:51 Every nation and every region
01:30:56 Either you're with us
01:31:13 May he guide us now.
01:31:15 And may God continue to bless
01:32:01 Why don't you take
01:32:04 Clouds coming in.
01:32:06 Looks like rain.
01:32:09 Come on.
01:32:11 You're not sitting here at 3 a.m.
01:32:16 Remind me to call the electrician
01:32:18 There's a light out on the path below.
01:32:20 Why don't you call your son
01:32:24 ...what's keeping you awake all night?
01:32:26 I'm worried about him.
01:32:30 Really worried.
01:32:33 I can't talk to him.
01:32:36 Well, he's not gonna listen to me.
01:32:39 He takes criticism worse than I do.
01:32:43 He's the president now.
01:32:45 His decision to make.
01:32:48 Well...
01:32:50 ...you better do something.
01:32:51 This is eating away at you.
01:32:57 I'll do something.
01:33:00 "An attack on Iraq at this time...
01:33:02 ...would seriously jeopardize
01:33:05 ...we have undertaken.
01:33:07 ...in a serious degradation
01:33:10 ...against terrorism."
01:33:15 Damn Brent Scowcroft.
01:33:17 He wouldn't be doing this
01:33:20 You know, Poppy's good friend.
01:33:22 These 1980 guys trying to
01:33:24 ...when they don't know what I know.
01:33:26 Just when we want the U.N.
01:33:29 I will call Brent right now.
01:33:31 He can't even talk to me directly
01:33:33 Writing letters. I don't wanna
01:33:36 I will let Brent know that from here
01:33:40 This is my war, not his.
01:33:42 I will not renegotiate this.
01:33:44 Mr. President.
01:33:46 Has your father ever personally
01:33:51 No, I haven't asked. I don't need to.
01:33:53 Wrong father to appeal to
01:33:55 You know, there's a higher father
01:33:58 Amen.
01:34:03 Protestors came
01:34:05 ... filling block after block around
01:34:10 These are the largest anti-war
01:34:18 Some of our allies were very much
01:34:22 Bush, Bush.
01:34:24 Estimates of 10 to 15 million
01:34:28 ... protesting America's
01:34:33 Tens of thousands demonstrating
01:34:39 So I suppose the key here,
01:34:43 Tony, I'm with you, but I'm flat out of
01:34:46 Even Powell doesn't think
01:34:49 Believe me, I am twisting
01:34:51 - All right.
01:34:54 ...France, Germany, Russia,
01:34:59 Well, our new thinking
01:35:01 - Yeah.
01:35:03 Punish France.
01:35:05 Forgive Russia.
01:35:07 Yes, but with time, just a few months,
01:35:12 No, we can't do that, Tony.
01:35:13 We run out of time. The start date
01:35:17 March 10th.
01:35:18 George, the inspectors
01:35:22 How can we justify
01:35:24 Well, no WMDs yet, Tony,
01:35:27 - Absolutely.
01:35:29 ...having to provoke the son of a bitch.
01:35:32 Well, what do you have in mind?
01:35:34 We were thinking of painting one of
01:35:37 ...and fly it over Iraq.
01:35:39 Now, if Saddam takes the bait,
01:35:43 Well, when he fires on it,
01:35:46 That would sure justify retaliation.
01:35:49 Well, it's a novel idea.
01:35:51 Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
01:35:53 Tony...
01:35:54 ...come the U.N.
01:35:58 ...we're going to war on this.
01:36:00 Are you?
01:36:09 I do not share your spirit
01:36:13 War is not inevitable.
01:36:15 There are alternative ways
01:36:19 I mean, it's a question of morality,
01:36:22 Well, Jacques,
01:36:24 Said there was such a thing
01:36:30 Listen, Jacques,
01:36:33 - So am I.
01:36:35 ...hugging the families of those
01:36:38 ...and I view an armed Saddam as
01:36:41 Well, if there is a war, we'll work
01:36:48 We will all contribute.
01:36:52 Okay, Jacques.
01:36:54 Then...
01:36:56 ...that's it.
01:36:59 Good night, George.
01:37:02 I'd love to stuff some freedom fries
01:37:05 - Yeah.
01:37:07 Ripping off their oil...
01:37:09 ...and then taking the high horse
01:37:12 Sir, don't lose any sleep over
01:37:16 They got him on 60 Minutes next week
01:37:20 Thirty days?
01:37:22 Next chance that comes up,
01:37:25 ...because I'd be damn glad to.
01:37:27 What about Putin?
01:37:29 All right.
01:37:31 Might as well get stabbed
01:37:33 Like that guy in Rome.
01:37:39 - teaspoonful
01:37:42 ... shut down the United States Senate
01:37:45 This forced
01:37:47 ... to undergo
01:37:50 ... killed two postal workers...
01:37:52 ... just from the amount
01:37:56 Iraq declared 8500 liters of anthrax.
01:38:02 My man, Balloon Foot,
01:38:06 - even one teaspoonful
01:38:13 You know, he's been a nudge
01:38:16 ...but this is gonna seal the deal.
01:38:19 It's the best speech he's ever given.
01:38:25 Can you believe that, Vice?
01:38:26 Comrade Pooty-Poot, with all
01:38:29 ...he's got the balls
01:38:32 It's all because
01:38:35 Used me as a piñata
01:38:37 I won't forget that.
01:38:39 Well, at least we got
01:38:42 ...the Czechs, Spain,
01:38:45 ...and, you know, the Brits.
01:38:47 - Romania, Slovenia, Bulgaria.
01:38:51 Japan is sending observers.
01:38:53 And let's not forget
01:38:56 I hear they're damn fine
01:38:59 We got more than 40 countries
01:39:02 Yeah, 49, sir, but most of them
01:39:07 Some are sending equipment.
01:39:09 - Morocco is sending monkeys.
01:39:12 Monkeys that are trained to locate
01:39:16 That's a good idea.
01:39:18 - Okay, Tommy's standing by in Qatar.
01:39:21 Hey, Tommy.
01:39:24 Hot as a goat's asshole, sir.
01:39:26 What's the latest plan, Tom?
01:39:28 Well, we should have 140,000
01:39:31 Seventy eight thousand of them
01:39:34 Another 50,000 are on the way.
01:39:36 We'll have a total force level
01:39:39 That's great.
01:39:41 Yes, sir.
01:39:43 Now, sir, we have identified
01:39:46 But this could result
01:39:50 I'm no target picker, Tommy,
01:39:52 I don't wanna fire no $2 million missile
01:39:57 Not gonna happen on my watch, sir.
01:39:59 Be sure not to hit any schools
01:40:01 Well, I read you on the hospitals.
01:40:05 All right, what about
01:40:07 Well, I think now, more in
01:40:11 No more than a thousand.
01:40:13 Remember, Americans don't like to
01:40:16 Yes, death tends to give war
01:40:19 We can issue a blackout on
01:40:23 The same thing should apply
01:40:26 Oh, yeah, that's good, Vice.
01:40:28 Well...
01:40:30 ...it's been a long haul,
01:40:33 I don't care what happens now...
01:40:35 ...how many damn votes we do
01:40:39 Come Monday morning, 10 a. m...
01:40:41 ...l'm giving Saddam and his two sons
01:40:45 Indeed.
01:40:47 All right.
01:40:51 Everybody in agreement then?
01:40:52 - Yes, sir.
01:40:53 All right.
01:40:55 May God bless the troops.
01:40:58 May God bless America.
01:41:38 All right, way to go.
01:41:41 I've got goose bumps.
01:41:42 Not one CBW attack. Not one Scud.
01:41:46 Except they're not surrendering.
01:41:47 Thousands are taking off
01:41:50 Well, good. I'll bet Saddam's running
01:41:53 ...trying to find his passports.
01:41:55 Don't say I was wrong
01:41:57 We did it, sir. Congratulations.
01:41:59 We sure did, Colin.
01:42:00 - Congratulations.
01:42:02 What do you mean we, kemosabe?
01:42:04 Hey, good job.
01:42:06 - Hey.
01:42:08 I remember you once agreeing...
01:42:10 ...that going all the way to Baghdad
01:42:13 I think you made
01:42:15 You could've been president.
01:42:17 Fuck you.
01:42:23 This is for those who doubted
01:42:26 - Yes, sir.
01:42:28 So dropping a rope around its neck,
01:42:31 They took an ax to the base of
01:42:35 And this is finally what did.
01:42:38 Yeah. We got the son of a bitch.
01:42:42 Maybe he called it right after all.
01:42:46 Well, they got the statue...
01:42:48 ...but now they gotta catch the man.
01:42:58 Live from New York City,
01:43:01 ... with Jack Hawk and Candice Black.
01:43:08 What did you think of that?
01:43:10 Jack, it's really stunning.
01:43:12 I mean, he's landing on a boat
01:43:16 I can't think of a Democrat
01:43:18 Exactly. Imagine Kerry.
01:43:20 Kerry would never be able
01:43:22 This is the guy who threw down
01:43:25 George Bush, on the other hand,
01:43:29 Women love that. We're buying
01:43:33 George Bush looks for real, all right.
01:43:35 He didn't fight in the war,
01:43:38 And women love President Bush
01:43:42 And women love this war. It's simple.
01:43:45 My fellow Americans...
01:43:47 ...major combat operations in Iraq
01:43:51 In the battle of Iraq...
01:43:53 ...the United States and our allies
01:44:01 In the images of celebrating Iraqis...
01:44:04 ...we have seen the ageless appeal
01:44:08 Everywhere that freedom steers,
01:44:13 That is the Almighty's gift to every
01:44:19 May God bless you all.
01:44:21 And may God continue
01:44:36 Roadside bombs
01:44:39 ... in separate attacks
01:44:42 To date, 853 American soldiers
01:44:48 The bombing continues
01:44:51 ... directed at American troops,
01:44:55 ... which is divided between Shiite
01:45:01 The truck bomb killed at least 17...
01:45:03 ... and wounded over 100
01:45:07 The blast also killed
01:45:10 ... who appears to have been
01:45:13 Back up. Back up.
01:45:16 Former members of the Iraqi army...
01:45:18 ... are protesting the dissolution
01:45:21 They have guns
01:45:23 Some have threatened
01:45:26 ... if their grievances
01:45:33 The Pentagon told me we'd be down
01:45:37 Is that anywhere near possible now?
01:45:39 Well, I'm afraid, Mr. President, we're
01:45:43 Then where the hell
01:45:46 Well, we control the country now, sir,
01:45:51 All right, tell me this.
01:45:53 Whose job is it
01:46:00 Bremer, I mean, you're running
01:46:04 - Well?
01:46:06 I thought General Franks
01:46:09 Tom, you're commander
01:46:11 That area was never part
01:46:15 - There was a team assigned by the...
01:46:24 Well, as per Secretary Rumsfeld's
01:46:28 ...most normal postop
01:46:32 ...were stripped from us
01:46:34 Why wasn't I told?
01:46:37 What's Rummy say about this?
01:46:39 Cambone... I believe that it's
01:46:43 Cam... What is that?
01:46:46 Well, he's undersecretary of defense
01:46:50 He reports to Secretary Rumsfeld.
01:46:52 Well, that's great.
01:46:54 I mean, that's just great.
01:46:57 Why the heck didn't anyone
01:47:03 Mr. President,
01:47:08 Look, let me make this clear...
01:47:11 ...since I've had some experience
01:47:17 My son has got the toughest position
01:47:21 He's the one
01:47:25 And as Americans...
01:47:27 ...it's our duty
01:47:30 ...to bring freedom and democracy
01:47:35 And as a father...
01:47:38 ...l'll be damned
01:47:40 ...who are always trying
01:47:45 And you know what?
01:47:48 ...made him faster
01:47:50 They make them that good
01:47:52 You and I are gonna run together, son,
01:47:56 I give you my promise, all right?
01:47:59 Okay?
01:48:20 Got him a shirt. Maybe you can
01:48:23 I'd like...
01:48:25 ...to stand up for you, sir.
01:48:27 No, you don't, sergeant.
01:48:28 No, I'm the one standing up for you.
01:48:31 Laura and I are looking forward
01:48:34 - All right, now?
01:48:35 All right, you hang in there.
01:48:40 Thank you.
01:48:49 Thank you.
01:48:53 David, good to see you.
01:48:55 - Mr. President.
01:49:01 You used to love pecan pie,
01:49:03 I've given up sweets
01:49:06 My personal sacrifice
01:49:09 The best pie I've ever tasted,
01:49:14 So, what you're telling me, David,
01:49:19 Frankly, we missed it...
01:49:20 ...because Saddam pretended
01:49:24 It doesn't make sense.
01:49:25 Why would he risk his life and
01:49:29 Because I think...
01:49:32 ...he didn't want his people to know
01:49:35 Part of his Superman image.
01:49:38 Afraid they'd cut his throat
01:49:40 You're saying this guy
01:49:43 Come on, that's just nuts.
01:49:45 He really thought you were bluffing.
01:49:48 Me, bluff?
01:49:50 How could the CIA, all our
01:49:56 I told Mr. Tenet from the beginning...
01:49:58 ...that things weren't panning out
01:50:03 And your National Security advisers...
01:50:05 ...should've got into this, gotten
01:50:08 Believe me, Dr. Kay...
01:50:10 ...when I say we were getting
01:50:13 ...and not just from you or the CIA.
01:50:15 I don't see... I don't know that
01:50:18 Mr. President, I think we're being
01:50:23 ...where, indeed,
01:50:27 ...to judge the overall success
01:50:31 My office sent to you
01:50:36 ...that showed that WMDs
01:50:40 ...that you never responded to.
01:50:42 We analyzed those photos,
01:50:46 ...and they are actually trenches,
01:50:51 Not caves.
01:50:53 That's not what my people told me.
01:50:55 Vice, you grew up in Wyoming.
01:50:57 You should damn well know cattle.
01:51:00 I mean, there you go.
01:51:03 Now, fool me twice...
01:51:07 ...and you can't get fooled again.
01:51:14 I'm sorry, Mr. President.
01:51:16 We thought he had WMDs.
01:51:20 But we were all wrong about him.
01:51:24 And I include myself.
01:51:33 Our system...
01:51:35 ...the integrity of it...
01:51:38 ...has broken down completely.
01:51:44 And I have never traded access
01:51:49 And I am obligated to resign.
01:52:18 That was some shit sandwich
01:52:21 Working on it. We can
01:52:23 - I don't buy it. He had those weapons.
01:52:25 But now we shift the ground.
01:52:27 Keep the focus
01:52:29 Rumsfeld is on another planet.
01:52:31 Sometimes I wonder.
01:52:34 - What about Iran?
01:52:36 Bigtime uranium-enrichment
01:52:38 - We're on it.
01:52:41 There's something there.
01:52:42 I can feel it.
01:52:44 Kansas State and Ohio State,
01:52:47 ... in the Fiesta Bowl.
01:52:50 Krenzel, your MVP,
01:52:58 Funny thing...
01:53:01 ...Poppy once said.
01:53:05 I didn't appreciate it.
01:53:08 What was that, Geo?
01:53:12 Something about:
01:53:15 "Sometimes it's better to stay
01:53:28 These lines here...
01:53:31 ...seem like they just
01:53:35 You're as handsome as ever, Geo.
01:53:38 Only makes you look
01:53:43 Your favorite play is coming to town.
01:53:52 Cats.
01:53:53 The Broadway company
01:53:56 You wanna go?
01:53:59 Cats?
01:54:01 That's something I'd stay up late for.
01:54:04 I thought so.
01:54:10 You know, I don't get it.
01:54:13 All this psychobabble in the media.
01:54:17 I mean, all I wanted to do
01:54:21 ...for everyone.
01:54:24 There's good and there's evil.
01:54:26 And you and I and the rest of the
01:54:32 That good ultimately wins out.
01:54:38 But you have to fight for it.
01:54:42 People have no idea
01:54:49 The sacrifices you've made.
01:54:52 Laura, I knew when I married you
01:54:56 That same bolt of lightning
01:55:00 For better or worse.
01:55:02 Mostly better.
01:55:09 Since the start of the war, though...
01:55:11 ...I barely have time
01:55:15 My knees hurt.
01:55:16 I'm just off my pace.
01:55:20 It's been hard on me, Laura.
01:55:22 On top of everything else.
01:55:25 Well...
01:55:27 ...someday the war will be over.
01:55:30 And we can have our lives back.
01:55:36 I'll get those tickets for next week.
01:55:46 - Poppy, what are you doing here?
01:55:50 Opposite Baker.
01:55:53 Got him to help pull your ass
01:55:59 Don't forget that.
01:56:02 Come on. Let's go.
01:56:04 A little mano a mano.
01:56:08 - Bet you I can still whip your ass.
01:56:11 Got to admit, I scared you back then.
01:56:15 I got a lot on my mind.
01:56:23 Why you being so ornery?
01:56:25 Because you disappoint me, Junior.
01:56:28 Deeply disappoint me.
01:56:30 After all these years. Still?
01:56:33 - You're still with that?
01:56:35 Not the girls or summer jobs anymore.
01:56:41 I dug myself out of the depths of hell
01:56:45 ...make something of myself.
01:56:47 Think you did.
01:56:49 Yeah, well, you also wrecked it.
01:56:51 Wrecked. Wrecked what?
01:56:53 You've ruined it for us.
01:56:55 - What are you talking about?
01:56:57 Get out of my office.
01:56:58 Two hundred years of work. For Jeb.
01:57:01 Get out.
01:57:03 With this fiasco.
01:57:06 Get out of my life.
01:57:08 And that's what it is.
01:57:10 A goddamn fiasco.
01:57:12 Get out!
01:57:13 George. George.
01:57:16 Are you all right?
01:57:18 Oh, Jesus.
01:57:20 Jesus, George.
01:57:27 There's been tough weeks in Iraq.
01:57:29 But our central commitment
01:57:32 ...is the transfer of sovereignty
01:57:37 Now, we've set a deadline
01:57:40 ...three months from now.
01:57:42 June 30, 2004.
01:57:52 It's important that
01:57:58 The only way we can win...
01:58:02 ...is to leave before the job is done.
01:58:08 Yeah.
01:58:10 I'll now take questions.
01:58:11 - Mr. President.
01:58:13 - Sir, sir.
01:58:14 Yeah.
01:58:17 Miss China?
01:58:19 Mr. President,
01:58:21 ...but my viewers
01:58:25 What place do you think
01:58:27 In history?
01:58:30 I don't know.
01:58:32 In history, we'll all be dead.
01:58:34 - Mr. President?
01:58:37 - Mr. President?
01:58:40 - Thank you, sir. Mr. President.
01:58:42 After 9l11, what would you say
01:58:46 ...and what lessons
01:58:57 Now, I wish you would have
01:58:59 ...this written question beforehand,
01:59:03 ...so I could prepare for it.
01:59:09 You know, I just...
01:59:16 John, I'm sure historians will say,
01:59:19 "I wish he could've done better,
01:59:30 Something will pop into my head
01:59:33 ...with all the pressure of trying
01:59:36 ...but it hasn't yet.
01:59:41 You know, I hope...
01:59:44 I don't wanna sound like
01:59:47 You know, I'm confident I have.
01:59:50 It's just, I haven't...
01:59:54 You know, you really put me
01:59:56 ...and maybe I'm not...
01:59:57 ...as quick on my feet
02:00:24 Mr. President.
02:00:25 Not now, Ari. Not now. I'm busy.
02:00:38 We're locked into a dandy, 1- 1 here,
02:00:42 ... as Spencer stands in.
02:00:43 He's 3-for-3 on the night.
02:00:45 This is the first time he's come up
02:00:48 He hasn't had a chance
02:00:50 He'd certainly love to do some here.
02:00:52 Monroe off of first. That was
02:00:55 Jay Fletcher you just saw down
02:00:57 Woodhouse is on deck.
02:00:59 Schwartz will follow if we get that far.
02:01:01 Chavez now from the stretch.
02:01:03 And the pitch to Monroe.
02:01:05 Swinging, there's a fly ball
02:01:08 Moving over.
02:01:09 He dives, he misses the ball.
02:01:11 Monroe rounds first.
02:01:13 And here comes Spencer
02:01:16 The relay to the plate is...
02:01:18 ... not in time.
