number. he comes in 6-for 12 against him. he comes in and drives in the first run off halladay. >> tom: millar hit a home run. his 6th home run of the season. >> rick: millar with a home runs. he know what is to look for. he has seen these guys in the past. he catches that fastball down on the outside past and ties the game up. >> jim: orioles leading-2-1. >> rick: izturis has two hits on the day. halladay up in the zone. izturis, that does not matter to him. >> tom: toronto with score four times in the 3rd. toronto gets a 3-2 lead. >> rick: brian matusz was up in this inning right there, two home runs on the inning, four runs he gave up right there. this was not as sharp as he was in his first outing right there drop toe takes advantage of

iti. >> tom: on the toronto barge continues. >> rick: the second home run of the inning, nice hanger right there, change-up, vernon wells hits it into the upper deck. four runs they score in the inning. they if on to win the game 7-32 brian matusz is now 1-1. roy halladay pitched eight strong innings. over controls are lose it out of 3 to the toronto blue jays. they head back home. let's go out to toronto for more. >> jim: thanks very much. as tom and rick were talking about, when you go against the toronto blue jays, you know your chances are few. you know how to get to him. >> buck: the thing about halladay, you stake him to an early lead, he take advantage of t he had all of his weapons

working here today. he had a great curve ball against felix pie. two-seam fastball indoors, inside gets aubrey huff. then another curve ball gets through scott. finally the cut fastball. this is such a good pitch for him, gets to adam jones on the outside part of the plate. when you look at halladay, you look at his outing, 8 innings, three run, nine hits allowed. you say that's not really good. but when he gets into tough situation, he throws the double play. he gave up a 2-1 lead going into the bottom of the 3rd inning but then that four- run 3rd inning, he never looked back. >> jim: he has command of every pitch. as a hitter, you don't know what to look for because he can throw any pitch for a strike. >> buck: he does have confidence and then he has that ability to throw strikes on

both corners. that's what makes him so good, he does it consistently. 8 innings, just 107 pitches. >> jim: the orioles knew that halladay was at the back end of this road trip and a disappointing end to the trip because after winning here friday night, you feel pretty good about getting two out of three. and then the ex-track inning lost yesterday and the blue jays bounce back. >> buck: vernon wells has a good series, hit three home runs in this series and drove in 7. extra base hate, orioles doubled up 5-10 by the blue jays. left on base is something that we have seen consistently with this orioles team. left on base is something that really hurts them in the series. >> jim: especially today and yesterday because the two runs that went into extra innings, the blue jays got it. there weren't many good chances but the orioles did have a man on base, needed that one big

inning. iinto. >> buck: when you are going against halladay, he depth give you many pitches that he can break. he did not come out for the complete game. i guess cito gaston felt with the 4-run lead, you are okay i. you are concerned about the long-term career of roy halladay. there was no reason to send him back out there for. if it was closer, it may have been different. >> jim: dave, the pitching today was mad cruz against roy halladay, the phenom, if you will, coming again the ace. what were your impressions of matusz this start against his last start in detroit? >> buck: his. >> his change-up was okay. he didn't locate his fastball as well. his slider was not as effective for him. he tried to get ahead with his fastball and they tried to pitch in with his fastball but he left that out over the mid the of the plate.

>> buck: dave, obviously, roy hall day has 275 more starts than brian. you have seen how poised these kids are and there is going to be other opportunity for them. point bass did a marvelous job coming out of the bullpen and holding them to two hits. could not get the big hit. >> bass was extremely good, kept the ball down, put zeros up. i i that's probably as well that we swung the bat against halladay. he was one of the giambi's premiere pitchers. knows how to locate, work both side of the plate but mat jose matusz will learn from it. that's a situation where you have to be real smart, real parent and understand what the big picture is all about. >> buck: we talked so much about the young players on this

team. we forget about a budding star in right field, nick markakis, making a couple of defensive plays and swinging the bat real well. talk about the way nick markakis continues to grow each and every day. >> he is consistent and consistent in all areas of the game. he kind of go unnoticed if you don't have the privilege to watch him day in and day out because he just goes about his business. you know, as a big leaguer, he has to be one the best, you know, right fielders in the game. he is the total package and a very good player. >> jim: dave, we appreciate the visit, thanks for the visit. >> you're welcome. >> jim: talking about brian matusz getting his feet wet, you have to have adversity. he needs to find some way to compare this to. you don't want them to go through this, but that's

necessary. orioles now set to go home opening a home stand. >> tom: thanks to jim hunter and buck martinez. when you look at the performance of brian matusz, he was short two winnings. what happened? into she was very wrong place at the wrong time. you heard buck martinez refer to it. he was up in the strike zone. started off the game pretty good. look at this double play. i love it see matt wieters throw like that. he has a great arm. later on in the game, he left some balls up in the zone and that's where toronto took advantage of that. he was not quite as sharp as he was in in detroit. here is vernon wells, easy swing and easy hit for him, home run. he has that kind of power. brian matusz, you know next time he face this is team, he will realize who the key guys are and he will not have to make any mistakes against but

vernon wells is right there and he is used to being their number 4 hitter. he wasn't there today but a fire he has to worry about hitting the ball out of the ballpark. >> tom: so matusz gives up three home runs. time to look at the at&t mayor of the game. and it turns out to be cesar izturis receiving 61% the game followed by roy halladay at 24%, ken millar at third with 15%. that's a look at the at&t player of the game. orioles lose 7-3. we'll continue o's xtra post game in just a moment.

. >> jim: the only starter over the last five not to allow a home run is matusz and matusz is going to allow one here. >> tom: vernon wells with a big

day, went 22-for-3, drove in three runs. vernon wells put the orioles down 5-2 when he hit that 2-run homer. >> rick: i know. he is too powerful. he is the franchise guy. he is the guy that carries the franchise. toronto is off and running. they get roy halladay enough support that it's going to take a miracle to beat this guy. he is just way too tough and vernon wells suls seems to be that way in there. the pitch down out the outside corner. we don't want to get this guy hot because he is a guy who carries their ball club. he is a very good solid contact hitter, a lot of power and the guy who puts 20-plus home runs every single year. >> tom: toronto takes the series 2-1. in his career against the orioles, 292 home

runs, 96 rbis and a .313 patting average. that's one great season when you look at it when you combine his total career again the orioles. the birds ran into a little bit of trouble today by grounding into three double play noose into roll hey day, he has the knack for being able to get a ground ball. in the 1st inning, orioles have one on and they have scutaro at shortstop, a very capable infield. later, matt wieters, a little shot behind third base. this is the way that halladay does it. he does not go for the strikeout very often. he lets his offense do the work behind them. says, i need a dprowb. three big double plays that took the orioles offensively out of the game. >> tom: on first base there was

close, felix pie. >> rick: i think it could have gone the orioles' way very easily. but when you are playing in a home ballpark, and that close to the home crowd, 99% of the time, the umpires will give it to the home team. >> tom: let's take at the schedule. a rare off day. in fact, i mentioned this before. on the 23rd of july to the 3rd of september, one off day. orioles are playing 20, off 1, playing 20. all on manls. if you can't watch on masn, done forth get, sports radio the fan with joanne many gel. when we come back, we'll talk about the top five plays for the orioles this week and more in a moment. geico's been saving people money on car insurance for over 70 years.

and who doesn't want value for their dollar? been true since the day i made my first dollar. where is that dollar? i got it out to show you... uhh... was it rather old and wrinkly? yeah, you saw it? umm fancy a crisp? geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.

. >> tom: in toronto's first inning, mat iters nailed the runner at second base. matt has very good arm. let's take a look at the plays. nick markakis makes the sliding grab. he got it right in time. ball in the air down the line, right field, markakis a very long run, diving and markakis makes a great play. what a play by markakis. a couple of runs high e big difference. rolled over, got him. what a big play that it. clete thomas, that can't happen. the beg hitter for the tigers standing at the plate with two down. going to be a base hit. markakis got it there, he is out. nick markakis with his 12th

lead-leaguing assist. gerald laird is retired. ground ball toward the middle, izturis, can he do, oh, what a play. izturis not only gets the out and saves probably two runs, he ends the inning. >> jim: yesterday at fenway park, pawtucket beaten. second half of the inning with another strikeout. he got chris duncan. norfolk, jeff farentino will wiped up scoring on this hit by brandon snyder to left field that put norfolk on the scoreboard, trailing 2-0. snyder went 2-for-3, hitting .280 in norfolk. bottom half, dennis sarfate will strike out brad boroviak.

nor end up beating pawtucket. some players playing pretty well right now in norfolk. that's norfolk's win yesterday over pawtucket 7-3. today, the a's are playing the kansas city royals. of course, the a's come to baltimore. ryan sweeney gives oakland a 3- 0 lead in this game. the next batter coming up with be bobby crosby and bobby crosby on the first pitch will hit a solo home run to left field giving the a's a 4-0 lead. again, you will be able to see the a's right here tomorrow at camden yards. twins are playing the tigers right now. dell month young hitting a solo home run to centerfield gig the apes -- moving to the bottom of the 5th inning, miguel cabrera

hits a two-run home run to left field. adding to this incident, it's minnesota twins, tigers 3. the tigers trying to pad their lead in the american league's central division. the cleveland indians leading the chicago white sox 5-3 in the top half of the inning. red sox play the yankees. we'll be back to preview tomorrow night's game in baltimore's camden yards, jeremy guthrie on the hill. that story coming up next. 7 out of 10 men prefer degree fragrances... over a leading old spice fragrance. ♪ ♪ new degree men's deodorant. mind-blowing fragrances.

over a leading old spice fragrance. ♪ ♪ new degree men's deodorant. mind-blowing fragrances. . >> jim: this one hit to right field, diving catch as he hung long enough for markakis to get there. >> tom: tom davis with rick dempsey after the orioles lost

to the toronto blue jays 7-3. cesar izturis went 2-for-4 with an rbi double. izturis is standing by with wj seo's mark viviano. >> you got some good swings off halladay. tell us what it was. >> it was good. we hit good, especially against halladay. you know, everybody knows he is tough, you know, but in the end, it was not good enough. today is another day. we have to come back tomorrow and see what happens tomorrow. >> you have been playing some shortstop behind some young pitchers. what did you see from brian? those three home runs undid him a little bit i yeah, leaving the pitch up there, playing in the big leagues, you pay. but he learns from that. he is a good guy, good pitcher.

>> back to halladay, seems like you have faced some very tough pitchers on this road trip. seems like every day, you face a good one. >> yes. definitely. that's playing in the american league east. but you go out and play your game. >> tom: izturis with a .267 average with two home runs and 10 rbis. >> go out there and get only ins, you know, but i started to struggle a little bit but we got him out of there. i was fortunate to go out and get some innings. >> were you surprise that had brian was removed when he was? it was still early in the game. manager makes the call, you were ready. i don't know. that's my job to go out there. you never know if somebody is going to get hurt or take a line drive. we just go out there and prepare to go out and pitch

early in the game. >> that's a unique role to be ready to fill at any time. what makes you suited for that? >> i don't know. that's kind of a learn on the fly thin. last year, i was in the same position. this year, position as a long guy. >> this team has played some tough competition, among other things. looking forward to getting whom? >> obviously, being home is more enjoyable than coming out and facing roy halladay at home. hopefully we can go back and play well and get a couple of wins there and bill on that and start rolling. >> brian, thank you. >> brian bass with a very good game. brian bass obviously doing a great job coming out of the bullpen when a starter fails early in the game. jeremy guthrie is going to pitch for the orioles as the orioles open up a series

against the oakland a's tomorrow at camden yards. what about jeremy guthrie? >> rick: he was a little upset for his last outing. i don't blame him for that. he pitched a very good game against the detroit tigers. much better, much better tempo, made better pitches but still ended up with the same result because the ball club did not score him any runs. he will face gio gonzalez. his last outing, 2 2/3 inning, how do you give up 11 earned runs in 2 2/3 and manage to stay in that long in that ballgame, too. he will look for his 4th on the day>> tom: we'll go back to toronto, brian matusz with wjz's mark viviano. >> no, i didn't think about that at all. i knew that halladay was going. it was a good match-up. i don't think that changed anything. i just didn't make the pitches when i needed to.

i never really settled down and got into a good groove. i didn't really get comfortable out there. you know, that's something that i need to learn from, i mean, stop being so fine with my pitches and attack the zone like i need to. >> tom: rick, how much does it hurt a kid like that. he gets whacked after 2 1-1 inning. >> rick: no, that's not going to bother him. he has pipd in a tough college program. you know what i think it is? it is that unlucky pie in the face. everybody gets it after their first win but later on, no luck. >> tom: that's going to wrap things up. orioles lose to the blue jaysles back home baltimore's camden yards tomorrow night, pre-game coverage starts right here at 6 3-0 on masn.

a date in the preseason, this is it. >> here's what to watch for tonight a day after the hall of

fame game. kickoff slated for 8:00 eastern time. >> back in 2006, the chargers had the best regular season record in the nfl, 14-2. lost a heartbreaker to the patriots in the postseason and things have not been the saimins have. id win their division last year, but were just 8-8. ladainian tomlinson coming off the worst season of his career, and people are questioning whether thiiiill get back to the hype of 2006. will eric allen has more on the challenges facing the chargers of san diego. >> l.t. on offense, can an over 30-year-old running back still can make it happen? i believe so. l.t. has a lot to prove to all the nfl fans out there that he can stay healthy throughout the season and then make a splash in the playoffs. very important for offensive charger football that l.t. is

healthy down the stretch. on the other side of the ball, you have shawne merriman lights out, ready to go, just an explosive player. makes everyone around him better by his pressure on the quarterback. shawne merriman is a guy looking for $100 million at the end than of the season. you know we'll get the best for the best in the defense of the san diego chargers. love this football team. we'll wrap up the afc west again. again, the chargers leading the west out in the afc. >> bold ocomments from e.a. ladainian tomlinson has seen his numbers decline each year. injuries limited tomlinson to just five carries in two playoff games. an overtime win to the colts and a loss to the steelers. >> tomorrow on espnews, we take a closer look at the denver

appearances there. three wins occurred after he was trailing, and that was the situation today. as i mentioned, three shots back. as you can see tiger with a one-stroke lead on harrington. it was up to a two-stroke lead. the big shot for tiger, an eagle on the second hole, then two birdies on the first five holes after that. taking a look at the front nine for harrington and tiger woods. as we mentioned before, the birdie on two, on the first five -- excuse me. the eagle on two, then two birdies on the first five holes, eliminated pretty much the entire deficit heading into this thing. lee westwood making a charge. actually the first time woods and harrington have played in the lead since 2006. harrington went on to win on the second playoff hole. just underway on the back nine here, and a birdie for harrington that cut that deficit from two strokes to now one

stroke o. tiger, though. still your leader. >> in the american league, we can sometimes find ourselves with the red sox and yankees. if you want some real drama look no further than the central division, three times battling for one spot in the postseason. the wild card's tough to obtain when you consider entering play today, the white sox had the best chance, but six games back with four teams in front of them. their focus has to be on their own division where three teams are separated by 4 1/2 games. leading the pack, the tigers. jarrod washburn traded from seattle. cuddyer had the solo home run. delmon young into center field. his fourth home run of the year. bottom five, tigers up 4-3. cabrera that's a two-run shot for him, his 23rd of the year. will tigers now leading 6-3. bottom eight, tied at 6-6. detroit runners on the corners.

field, a two-run shot, his tenth the year. blue jays up 3-2. later in the frame, vernon wells doing his best scutaro impression, also a left field job. it's a two-run shot.it his 12th long ball of the hall season. make blue jays now up 5-2. top six, orioles trailing by two. halladay looking strong in this one. eight innings of work for him, just two earned runs. now his tenth straight win against baltimore. 20-4 his career record against the orioles, the most wins against any team. baltimore falls to 3-18 on the road. >> pujols rips it down the left field line, fair ball, into the corner it goes. and albert pujols with one swing of the bat now with 100 rbis here in this 2009 campaign. device to buoy the best -- vessels over shoals. it was a maritime pageant. taebo presented to the volume

clad board tomorrow and lincoln said i think i will go with zero so here's the 800-pound gorilla in the room and the captain says i don't know it does not look like a ship it is round and no mass and mr. president what do you think? and lincoln very characteristically said well, it reminds me of what the girl said when she stuck per flight into the stocking i think there is something in it. and with that the board said i think we could probably back it. the upshot he was very interested in the modern technology he would take himself down to the navy yard to test the weapons and ask the could test them person peso making an already too long the story even short-term the answer is yes.

[laughter] >> who like to pose a question in using the moderator's prerogative. i am curious why large numbers of contemporaries and subsequently historians feel the need to put down mary todd lincoln in an effort to prop up abraham lincoln to present him as the long-suffering man? >> who here has read socrates? who here reads shakespeare and knows about kate? i think there is in the male consciousness, of this feeling that a great man cannot always have, what should i say an average life? so what mary lincoln does in this oppositional view to mary todd is to give the americans

there he wrote he doesn't even have to have the good wife. in fact, he has a bad life. and their four americans can either make into lincoln a greater icon that he might otherwise have been. i do see a tempestuous woman who was not ordinary in any way and might be called the disorderly in the sense that we use that of women who step outside of their time. i do see that mary lincoln can play that abundantly important role in the mythologies of american heroes. is that a proper answer? >> it is an excellent answer. >> a question for the

professor you mentioned three characteristics that lincoln had to help him role. i wonder if the one about hope/faith could go into those going back into the paradoxical fact he was not religious but he read the bible quite a bit and new the stories of the bible by heart. >> first of all, there are a number of characteristics beyond those three that helped to be an effective they're not just these three but these three were particularly prominent in his decision making process. the question of lincoln faith is interesting. a number of books recently out also seems to have migrated during the civil war which is understandable given the terrible cost of that for rich lincoln must have felt an individual burden and responsibility he could have said let the sisters go in

peace and 620,000 lives would have been saved but he felt an obligation. lincoln himself never belonged to a church, i did not believe in the divinity of jesus christ. read the king james bible as much as a history book for revelation. he never really became religious in the sense a 21st century audience considers it. he became spiritual and the fact he hoped that mankind generally can overcome the burdens it was dealing with and that gave him strength to deal with them as well but certainly help and face were of that air rose in his presidential quiver. but bold question would require another seminar it is a complicated problem.

>> backing on your question, i think that we need to divide lincoln the fatalist, of a guy who believed outside of religion but as a diaz that what happens, happens. from the lincoln that comes to believe in providence and that is that has nothing to do specifically with the christian religion it has to do with the view of of perhaps from the puritans, providence will dispose. opiate lincoln will propose but providence will dispose. this is most brilliantly and eloquently expressed by lincoln in the second

inaugural. just a brilliant speech that i hope all of you will go home and read it even if it is a nice sunny day and you want to get out. [laughter] >> let me remind everyone "mary todd lincoln" and "lincoln and his admirals" it by a craig symonds are for sale in the gymnasium and i dare say both will be delighted to autograph your purchase copy. thank you for coming out in such a large numbers and thank you to the panelist [applause] >> this concludes our coverage of the 2009 annapolis book festival for more information visit annapolis book festival.com. >> "uncle sam wants you", it christopher capozzola who is

james montgomery flagg? >> he is the man behind one of the most important images of american politics the "uncle sam wants you" poster a graphic artist working in new york and in that period after the war had started but before the u.s. was involved, a flag wanted americans to be more involved and wanted to come up with the image with the military he gave us this image as a that "uncle sam wants you" with the finger-pointing. >> was the under contract to present that image? >> at that time he was working for a magazine which was popular during the day and was under a tight deadline to finish and did not have a lot of ideas. so at the story as we know it from his memoirs that he got the idea coming up with a picture of himself working

from the mayor and adding a few years to the image and putting on a funny hats and that gave him the magazine cover and one year later the u.s. army picked it up and made into a recruiting poster >> at the time it was not meant to recruit soldiers? >> no iran under the headline would be doing for preparedness to get ready in case the u.s. is drawn in to the european war? >> was our national effort in 1916 sue get into world war i? >> there was. some people wanted the u.s. to enter like theodore roosevelt who felt this was an international crisis and even a humanitarian crisis the u.s. have the obligation to be involved but others wanted the u.s. to be more prepared to have a larger army with more

capabilities in case world events drag america into more than there was a european problem that they thought they should stay away from. >> not a centralized government effort? >> no. woodrow wilson tried to avoid it as president because he was worried he would end up alienating voters on both sides. >> how did the u.s. get into world war i? >> despite woodrow wilson's efforts he made a series of decisions that backed up into war to give flight preference to britain and not trading with germany and as the germans in the spring of 1917 launched into a last-minute gambit to win the war knowing they would drag the americans into it. the germans thought the americans did not have a big army or a strong federal government they would never

did in and time to make a difference and that is where they were wrong. >> prior to woodrow wilson decision what were the grass roots separate effort? >> among the people that wanted the u.s. to be more prepared, it was a group of people most of them republicans most disciples of theodore roosevelt to set up to volunteer military training camps it was called the plattsburgh movement and it was ill lead college students of the day would spend summers training to be military officers. and in fact, after the war the rotc as reno is today traces its roots back to the grass roots movement. >> was there a movement to get into the war? was the more popular before the americans got into it? >> it was popular with some people but one of the things that most people forget is

world war i was very divisive entering the war and how to fight it after it starts. what about was forgotten in the years since the. >> where does your but come from? >> is started from a group of people in a flood know in another book five saw a reference to slacker which was thus long-term foray a draft dodger raids were carried out by a group of middle aged men that would go around two cities and small towns to track down the draft dodgers and the communities and i thought this is unusual people volunteering-- volunteering to enforce the draft perhaps 200,000 people who were a part of this. i started researching them and it became a bigger story about america and the federal

government. >> what is the effect of the a government on world 41? >> the enormously transformative and i think historians have not paid attention because of a lot of organizations got very large cross moller after the army got much bigger but then the budget got bigger and contracted and never went back to the small size it was before. then also the mindset that they were four generations to come so in a new crises came whether the great depression or world war ii the first was a previous image that others look at when they look at what should the government do? >> what was the previous image? >> of tapping into voluntary associations, a civil society, at the turn of the century, the allied and using that voluntary cents ability

to mobilize the population and the nation at a time when the state itself. >> is that why you include the suffragist? >> i do. the war is a crucial move -- moment for women's organizations whether suffrage or not trying to find a place for themselves at a time when ms. responsibilities are clearly taken so women have to find their own place and hundreds of thousands volunteer in organizations on the home front in particular areas where there is activity, a food, a conservation and things of the home. >> why is it not a rise in anarchy but a rise in domestic terrorism? and the instances of anarchist during this period? >> there had been violence around questions of labor for

quite awhile before the war world 41 marks a turning point*. for me it is captured and though wordpro german it appears almost everywhere during the first world war but it may have nothing to do with the german or activity or violence or strike could be labeled as prone german so the radicals throughout the period of industrialization found themselves under the gun. >> was the churn use against a lot of people and was it effective? >> it was used against anybody who was challenging the status quo which was against striking workers, african americans who started to migrate from the south to the north and it was effective in marginalizing at been pretty remarkable ways. >> christopher capozzola

career at to talk about the centrality of information and knowledge and what it means to have a shared corpus of knowledge and how important that is too our national identity and how it is threatened by the way education is splintered across the country house a lot of argument and advocacy and ways to look forward two what the new administration can do about education. >> the other is elephants on the edge when elephants teach about humanity? >> it is marvelous it is very moving and touching and what she does she has quite a platform she has been on 20/20 and "60 minutes" she tries to understand how human behavior affects the global population of animals in the wild and in captivity. it is a touching subject those who have read these kinds of

issues will respond to this book because our actions to have consequences especially on those creatures that cannot argue for themselves. she talks about elephants having nervous breakdowns. dairy most of life and how our own empathy toward understanding how they behave teaches us what it is like to be human. an effort to understand ourselves. >> to biographies seal university is coming out with charles dickens and andy warhol. >> yes it is interesting people think that everything we need to know about charles dickens but there has not been a biography of over 20 years it is a first cradle to grave biography and we are excited about this there is new information and research and i

think dick and is the christmas time and there will be some good sales for the buck. >> and the andy warhol books? and who was the author? bernanke is the art critic writing a column for the nation magazine and this is a wonderful biography a posthumous legacy that andy warhol left behind. some people think that is more interesting to think of andy warhol them look at his paintings or arts and he talks about what andy warhol did with the meaning of the american icon how he has become one of our most significant icons which is so unlikely and how did that happen? largely working with the iconographic subjects whether the campbell's soup cans or liz taylor. this is the book that takes all look at how he redefines what it is to be iconic.

>> as the author of a new book about how congress really works called the waxman report i hope people read that book. it is nonfiction by 10 to read and nonfiction rather than fiction although sometimes i escape to a novel here or there was some of the books, i

listened to then rather than read them and i am listening to the book the sequel to fiasco which was a fabulous book i just finished the inheritance about all of foreign policy problems this administration is inheriting am looking forward to a book about the involvement of the united states in the middle east. i listened to his first book about the six day war and i highly recommend that book. told me things although i lived through that time against israel and the arab neighbors, there were things i just did not know had have been behind the scenes that is why i thought that book was worth while that is why i think my book is one that people ought to listen to or read because it tells you things that you think you nobody really do not know the full story of what the discussions were, the

controversy and of the trade-off to produce legislation. people you usually hear about the scandals, the ineptness of government and people have been poisoned since reagan said the government is the problem and not the solution to think that government cannot do anything right but it must do things that affect positively millions of americans. i tried to show how bills that i fought for common many of them were very controversial were so successful and i believe the kinds of changes we are now working on and congress under fed guidance of leadership of president obama to reform energy and deal with health care to make it affordable to all americans, hold down the cost that we can balance our budget because the biggest cost we have with health-care under medicare and medicaid, we have
