you know, it's a sight that never seems to grow old, for the 201ist time since man walked on the moon, astronauts have entered out of their spacecraft to do a little space walking today. good afternoon, everybody. >> welcome to a brand-new hour of america's news headquarters. good to be back with you. >> we worked with each other years ago on fox news channel and went our separate ways and we're back. the separate walk is expected to wrap up in about a half hour from now. these astronauts, two of them have been working for hours to help install basically what's considered like a porch on the international space station. it's a lab to the japanese -- they have created the lab there. we're going to watch as the images keep coming from space. we're reminded of one of our nation's finest hour. >> one small step for man.

one giant leap for mankind. >> hard to believe. 40 years ago, this month that neil armstrong uttered those words. as we remember that milestone, we pay tribute to the man who brought that historic moment into our living room. >> neil armstrong is on the moon. 38-year-old american standing on the surface of the moon. >> cbs newsman walter cronkite passing away yesterday at the age of 92. the moon landing was one of the biggest moments and wow, what an illustrious career he had. laura ingle has more on his passing. >> cronkite not only ushered america through that's first few exciting moments, but went on to become a leading authority on the american manned space

program. the tributes from colleagues, heads of state and journalists have been pouring in and his family members tell us they're thankful for all the kinds thoughts today. chief of staff said his final resting place will be next to his late wife in missouri. he passed away after battling a disease -- his family members by his side. his former cbs colleagues have been sharing many fond memories of the news legend today, not only of the good times, but of the more serious ones. susan worked with him and remembers how important his personal take on the vietnam war was. >> he was very concerned about how he ended these pieces and he questioned the war and it was a really very important time in our country and lyndon johnson turned had his car net and said,

if i lost walter cronkite, i've lost the country and we've lost the war. >> president obama issued a statement on the loss of the news legend and said he set the standard by which all other news anchors have been judged. >> he was there through wars and riots, marchs and milestones, calmly telling us what we need to do know. through it all, he never lost the integrity he gained growing up in the heartland. >> in addition to the private service this week, there will be a large memorial next month in the lincoln center for the performing arts. surely going to be huge. >> thank you so much. i always get choked up when i see when john kennedy was aeneas nateed. >> it was a real moment that everyone around the world shared at the same time. the space program was a great passion of walter cronkite. today the astronauts performed their first space walk and we learned they have been told about the passing of

mr. cronkite, mission control, even relaying statements from nasa's new chief and from neil armstrong who took man's first step on the moon 40 years ago monday. let's take a look back at the historic lift - off of apollo 11. >> six, five, four, three, two, one, zero. we have lift - off. >> the man you just heard on that count down is our next guest, jack king, the voice of apollo 11. walter cronkite called mr. king after lift - off to say congratulations. what a cool gig. the voice of apollo 11. how did you get that? >> i guess it just goes with the territory. good to be with you today. >> it's nice to talk to you as well. you were the chief of public information at the kennedy space center. so that's how you got to do the count down. as you listen to your voice and i'm sure you have many times over the years, from that

historic day, what do you remember most? >> well, let me put this way, i'm proud to have the opportunity to represent the outstanding launch. it was quite a day for all of us. i remember coming out of the firing room about midnight to pick up, before the count down, i was loading thousands of pounds of liquid propellant aboard the three stages of the rocket. everything -- the packing went along fine. i looked around at the faces in the room. they were the same faces i had worked with for the past eight years. inside all of this event particular day, there was a great sense of anticipation. as turns out, the count down for apollo 11 was one of the smoothest we encountered.

only two minor problems during the whole morning. one was considered small communications light that was out on a panel and the second one was a small leak in a valve in the third stage. everything clicked on beautifully. when dawn broke t turned out to be a beautiful morning for a launch to the moon. not a cloud in the sky and a temperature of 85 degrees. a short time thereafter, the apollo 11 astronaut, neil armstrong, mike collins and buzz aldrin, settled in to the spacecraft and we continued to count. >> we got a nice picture on the screen right now. i want to jump forward to the call that you got from walter cronkite as we remember him today. what do you remember about that phone call? what was that conversation like? >> of course, i worked professionally with walter for more than 15 years and it was always a pleasure. the big thing i admired was the

tact of his objectivity. when walter said that's the way it is, that's the way it was. he also touched my life personally on several occasions. the first one was from the first man launch i did. i got home that night and of all people, walter cronkite called me to congratulate me. when walter congratulated me, i thought i did pretty well. the same thing occurred after apollo 11. but personally, i had dinner with my late wife, evelyn, and myself had dinner with walter and betsy, about three days before launch, we found a quiet restaurant in the south part of cocoa beach and walter was the same personable man that he was on tv as he was on camera. >> it was so clear how passionate he was about the space program. do you think that nasa could have become what it has if it weren't for walter cronkite as one of its big proponents early

on? >> it really was a great contribution, there is no question about it. walter, the thing i admired, is he's one of the guys who did his homework. really did his homework and was prepared for major stories. some of the other famous network anchors of the time would come rushing in at the last second, have a group of gophers coming over the news center to find out what's going on and what's going to happen next, and then run back and give notes to those folks so they could read it on the air. that was not the case with walter. he was on top of it all the time and reported it in that manner. off camera he was a real space fan, without any question. the two pictures that have been shown over the last two days that come to mind to me is his reporting of the death of president kennedy. but second, when neil armstrong put his foot on the moon and walter just smiled and opened his arms, if you'll remember,

'cause he was very excited at that time as well. >> he certainly was. we really appreciate you coming on to talk about not only the space program and the anniversary, we'll all celebrate on monday, but also the passing of an american icon, walter cronkite. jack king, the voice of apollo 11. thanks so much for your time, sir. all the best. >> my pleasure, good to be with you. >> be sure to stick with fox for more on the 40th anniversary of the apollo moon landing tomorrow afternoon at 3:00 o'clock eastern time. check out al policy low 11, one small step to our future. >> thank you very much. president obama putting pressure on congress to get a health care bill on his desk soon, without delay, within budget. >> i want to be very clear, i will not sign off to any health plan that adds to our deficits over the next decade and by helping improve quality and efficiency, the reforms we make will help bring our deficit under control in the long-term.

>> molly is live from washington. president obama today tried to refute critics who say his idea of health care reform is too big government. what was his response? >> hi, so good to see you again. president obama said these are the same old arguments, the same old quote, scare tactics that have stopped health care reform in the past. listen to this. >> opponents of health reform warn that this is all some big plot for socialized medicine or government-run health care with long lines and rationed care. that's not true either. i don't believe the government can or should run health care, but i also don't think insurance companies should have free rein to do as they please. >> the president says any legislation must include the creation of an insurance exchange where people can compare the benefits of a number of health care plans, including a government-run public option. >> molly, republicans are not buying into this. what are their okays?

>> they say it is big government and the republican response, arizona senator john kyle says the democrats plan will lead to rationed care and, quote, mountains of new debt and higher taxes. here is more of what he said. >> the president and some democrats insist we must rush this plan through. why? because the more americans know about it, the more they oppose it. something this important needs to be done right rather than done quickly. >> senator kyle says the way to reform health care is to stop medicare and medicaid fraud, stop frivolous lawsuits, and enable small businesses to get together and buy health insurance as large corporations are able to do. >> molly, good to see you. >> the national governors association this year holding their annual meeting in mississippi today, it's going on the whole weekend. spending stimulus money, health care, all expected to be top on the agenda. but about half the governors are

no shows. south dakota governor made the trip toly luxury and joins us live. good to see you. where is everybody else? >> thank you. they're on their way no another meeting right now. >> i meant where are all the governors that didn't show up? i know some have conflicts and scheduling, but sarah palin is not there, arnold schwarzenegger, governor of california. serious budget issues. does that impede you guys working and moving forward, making progress? >> naturally we would like to have more governors here, but i think we had somewhere between 36 and 37 governors planning on being here. i think we've got 26 here right now. a lot of them are still working on budgets. it's been a tough time and governors have a tough challenge getting their budgets to balance and unlike the federal government, most of us have to balance our budgets every year. >> the federal stimulus package is on the stable there. i know that will be a big topic of discussion. what are the concerns there?

are you worried about what happens when the budget is up or the money isn't coming in anymore in 2011? >> actually the major concern and one of the issues we're talking about here is the health care reform packages being discussed, a lot of them, or at least a number of them, have proposed with additional costs to the state. we don't have the money right now and if you're going to increase the amount they're going to want us to spend on medicaid, we're either going to have to tax people more, which is not what we want to do, or they'll have to find a way at the federal level to finance it. right now we're not hearing that occurring. so we've got challenges. we know we want to work with congress. we know there are some things we can do. but we want flexibility to continue to be the laboratories of success. we look around the united states right now, different states have done very good things to improve health care. south dakota we've got about an 8% uninsured population, but that's 92% that have got it. if you look at the quality of our health care, a lot of the folks in the upper midwest, we do very well. and at the same time, we're below average on our cost.

we have high quality, low cost because of the things that we've done on the upper midwest. if you look at the upper midwest states, there is a study out right now that says if everybody else would do what we've done in the upper midwest in terms of the reforms in place, the cost to gdp, the amount of gdp would be reduced from 18% to 13% and the quality of health care would go up. >> allall right. health on the table. a big deal down there, especially in mississippi, that was battered by hurricane katrina. thank you for joining us. thanks for being down there and getting to work on the weekend. >> appreciate it. >> like we are. >> secretary of state hillary clinton is back on the world stage. she's traveling abroad now in india. she's defending the u.s. calls for a wider effort to fight terrorism. the secretary also meeting with survivors of last year's terrorist attacks in mumbai. state department correspondent traveling with the secretary and

he'll give us a report a little later on in the hour. also two u.s. crew members are dead after an f15 fighter jet crashed in afghanistan. the pentagon not releasing any specific information, they're not telling us exactly where this crash took place, but the site is west of the capitol city of kabul. a second aircraft flying next to the fighter apparently apparently did not report enemy fire. the military suspect there is might have been some mechanical problems that could have been the cause of that crash. investigators say a known terror leader in the region is likely master mind of the homicide bombings of american hotels in jakarta. police confiscated handwritten notes and a cell phone that point to a malaysian fugitive who is linked to the group jama islamia. they found a laptop computer wired with explosives. we have a live report from jakarta coming up in a couple of minute. >> the world's oldest man has

died. he was 113 years old. he was from britain. my grandfather is going to be 101 in october. 113. he was one of the few remaining world war one vets, last surviving original member of the royal air force. he attributed his longevity to cigarettes, whiskey and wild, wild women. and there were two wilds in there, i'd like to point out. but seriously, he also served as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices world war one vets made for us. >> how is your grandfather? >> he's doing really well. he walks a couple miles a day. >> good for him. >> yeah. i take after him. >> i know it. you do. >> it's looking like president obama's biggest obstacle to getting a health care bill is within his own party. conservatives and moderate democrats uneasy about the legislation skyrocketing cost and frustrated bay tight deadline. what, if anything, can be done to win those guys over?

welcome back. it's 6:20 on the east coast. let's look at some of the stories making headlines. astronauts getting ready to wrap up the first space walk of shuttle endeavor's mission. they have outside the space station since noon today, about six hours, installing a platform for science experiments. president obama called walter cronkite the voice of certainty in an uncertain world. one of the many tributes to the legendary newsman. walter cronkite died last night at the age of 92. and police making an arrest in the string of six murders in tennessee and alabama. officers say the suspect admitted to the killings, but

they're not releasing the identity. >> president obama's biggest obstacle in getting a health care bill may come from within his own party. the more moderate and conservative members of the party known as the blue dog democrats are a little uneasy about the program's huge price tag. so can they, should they put the breaks on health care reform? for a fair and balanced take, we've got a few experts from each side of the aisle. doug high worked with michael steele, among others and taylor west is a former staffer for democrat senators chris dodd and mark crew doll. great to talk to you. so taylor, does the president have a problem with the blue dog tell mes? >> well, i think what year see something democrats in congress doing the real work of getting health care reform to the american people. you're looking at blue dogs at the table making their views heard and that's a little more than we've seen the republicans in congress. >> and they're making their voice heard and saying, we don't

like it. so is this going to be a real problem for nancy pelosi to get those votes they'll need once something comes on the table and there's a vote? >> i think what you're saying is that the president and all of the democrats in congress are coming to the table with the same urgency and commitment to get health care reform done and a commitment to health care reform that provides quality, affordable coverage without breaking the deficit. and that's a commitment that all of these groups share and i think you'll see it moving forward. >> a lot of people are saying that these conservative democrats are really the only ones right now who can put the brakes on this. as the president and the other leaders in congress are trying to push this thing along very, very quickly and there is a deadline for only a couple of weeks from now that it could be the blue dog democrats who put the brakes on it and stop this thing before it moves ahead too quickly. >> you're exactly right. i'm from the state of north

carolina and two democrats there, schueler who represents the west part of north carolina, and larry kissel a freshman member, recently in the last cycle and previous cycle defeated republicans to become members of congress. they're skeptical of this proposal and it's those kind of members that obama will need that nancy pelosi will need to push this through. i would add also to put in another north carolina plug, my old boss introduced health care legislation earlier this year with senator coburn to put ideas on the table for president obama to consider. really hope that happens. >> taylor, we heard from the cbo this week, this is a nonpartisan organization that came out and delivered a message that i'm sure the white house did not want to hear, which is not that the health care reforms are going to save money, but in fact, they're going to cost even more money. does the president maybe have to revise his goal of universal health coverage? >> what we actually saw was that the congressional budget office said that the plans that we're

looking at in congress need to include long-term, cost controls which is something the obama administration has been committed to, has have democrats in congress and they're discussing ways to build in the long-term controls. i would also point out that last night the same budget office looked at the house democrat's plan and said not only is it revenue neutral, but over the course of ten years, we're going to see $600 billion surplus coming out of that plan. >> doug, i've been talking to republicans all week long and i've been surprised at how many of them really seem to want health care reform. they will say yes, this is a problem and it needs to be addressed, but not one of them has been able to say how to pay for it. so we've got the republicans saying that we need it, but not knowing how to pay for it. the democrats pretty much saying the same exact thing. is there any way reform health care without raising taxes? seriously? >> we can certainly put markets

based on choices in to place. having government in charge scares a loft republicans and a lot of democrats, too. one thing that president obama said in the clip you played earlier, was the statement by president obama about the opponents to health care reform. the reality is there are no opponents. republicans want to fix this, the democrats do. the question is how we do it and the cost coming from president obama, from what we've seen from the congressional budget office and from conservative democrats, are really scary and it's a price that may be too high if we can't put market reforms in place. >> there is a deadline. the president wants this done before the august recess. the clock is ticking and we're watching very carefully and we appreciate you both coming on. we appreciate your time. >> thank you. >> police are sifting through the rubble of the hotel attacked in jakarta. those hotels were extremely

strengthened as far as security goes. evidence is point to go a known terror leader as the likely master mind. we'll tell you who he is and his ties to al-qaeda coming up.

good evening, i'm domenica davis. we're following the heat and thunderstorm activity out to the west. the heat in the desert southwest looking at temperatures. current readings around the vegas area, close to 110 mark. 106 in mesa, arizona. temperatures get cooler the further east you go. that's where we're dealing with moisture and looking at thunderstorm watch box until 10:00 o'clock local time for eastern parts of new mexico, western parts of texas and southern portion of colorado. you could see strong gusty wind. that would be your main threat with any of these thunderstorms that are dropping through. also a chance of dry lightning popping up in the arizona area. haven't really seen that.

this cell to the south of albuquerque has been the only producer of lightning in and around that area. so far, so good. one more day of hot temperatures through the desert southwest. and a little break with the heat by monday. that is the latest from fox weather center, i'm domenica davis. >> the bottom of the hour, time for the top of the news. americans are mourning the loss of a legend. long time cbs newsman walter cronkite passed away last night at the age of 92. he was said to be the most trusted man in america. >> 220 miles away from planet earth, two astronauts are wrapping up the space walk. they spent hours now helping to install a porch on a billion dollar japanese lab. >> secretary of state hillary clinton in india today defending u.s. demands that the country do more to combat terrorism. she also met with survivors of last year's mumbai attack that

left 166 people dead. police in indonesia uncovering evidence in the deadly homicide bombing carried out in jakarta. they're trying to look at the attack. they are looking at the attacks on two american hotels in the capitol city and they're trying to link them rather to a known temporary leader in the -- terror leader in the region. i know you visited both of those locations. tell us about what you found. >> the big focus is exactly who was behind these attacks and the focus right now is on malaysia man, who was part of a break away group linked to the group behind three of the different terrorist attacks over the years here in indonesia. as you mentioned, we took a look at the two location sites. those hotels that were hit yesterday by these attacks. they're considered among the most well secured hotels in

jakarta, operating they heist security level known as code red. which means there were 40 different security procedures already in place. including drop down barriers where vehicles had to be inspected, metal detectors, x-ray machines, and special explosive vapor detectors. but that didn't stop the attack. >> terrorists continue to evolve their tactics. we need to continue to evolve our procedures. >> this is the marriott hotel, the site of the first attack where police say the suspects may have come days earlier to plan the attack in room 1808. police tell the associated press that handwritten notes were pulled from the room, as well as a possible bomb inside of a laptop. what are measures people can take to minimize a risk? >> they can ask to take a room in the back where it wouldn't be exposed to the front and to the vehicular traffic. but i was staying on the 23rd floor and i hardly knew anything had happened.

>> although there hasn't been a terrorist attack in years in indonesia, many people here wonder if this is a start of renewed violence in the region. that security expert in that package said that he's testified before congress before after last year's mumbai attack, he went to the site and visited those locations and he said the u.s. congress is committed to make sure that things like this don't happen on u.s. soil. very tall task. back to you in new york. >> secretary of state hillary clinton kicking off a visit to indonesia. her first stop, mumbai, the scene of a devastating terrorist attack last year. clinton calls for greater cooperation between nations in fighting terror. >> secretary of state hillary clinton is the first senior obama administration official to visit india, which has emerged over the last decade as a major

player in the world economy and a key u.s. ally on a broad range of issues. the secretary began her visit here in mumbai on a somber note, sign ago book of condolences in a hotel, the very same hotel where terrorist attacked last year and as a symbolic gesture, she's spending two nights. she adds, both our people have experienced the senseless and searing effects of violent extremism and we can be proud of the brave heroism of those who saved lives. indian reporters peppered her with questions about whether the united states played some hidden role in recent talks dominated by terrorism issues between india and pakistan. the secretary denied that, maintaining the two sovereign nations are settling their disputes on their own. instead, clinton sought to emphasize the expanding relationship between washington

and nell deli. >> the dialogue that we are going to be embecoming on is ex streaksly important. it goes across the areas of strategic cooperation, agriculture, education, health care, science. >> keeping up at a break neck pace, despite having recently broken her elbow, secretary clinton met with business leaders here, with women entrepreneurs, and with education leaders. traveling with secretary clinton in mumbai india, james rosen, fox news. >> a very happy birthday to nelson mandela who turned 91 years old today. and for his birthday, he's calling on his supporters around the world to celebrate with good deeds. he says go out and read to the blind, distribute blankets to the homeless, refurbish homes for orphans. in recent years, he has largely retreated from the public eye,

but his charitable efforts are all part of an organized attempt to celebrate the first annual mandela day in order to carry on his mission. >> as we've been reporting, walter cronkite had a tremendous impact on television journalism. we want to turn back to when cronkite first began the half hour version of the cbs evening news, september 2, 1963. his first guest, the president at the time, john f kennedy, who would be assassinate to do months later on november 22. later in the show, he reports on the late frees cuba. here is what america saw that first sunday. >> good evening from our cbs news room in new york on this, the first broadcast of network television's first daily half hour news program. alabama today, governor wallace rang the public school to delay integration ordered by a federal court and in turn, the local alabama school board threatened defiance. on cape cod, president kennedy

today talked with this reporter of many things, including the political repercussion battle. >> do you think you'll lose some? >> i don't know. too early to tell. but i would think -- i'm not sure that i'm the most popular political figure in the country today in the south, but that's all right. i think we'll have to wait and see. not that long. >> you making any estimate who your opponent would be? >> good many of them. >> got any choices who you would like to run against you? >> that's a great mistake. i know some republicans chose me in 60. i'll let them choose. >> there might be something brewing in cuba besides coffee, that is. for the first time in months, the government is acknowledged guerrilla activity. but said that soldiers killed

two rebel leaders in fighting this and that is that they worked for our c.i.a. this ties in with speculation leaking from havana that castro's military alert may have been caused not by division, by intensification of resistance inside cuba. >> that's the way it is, monday, september 2, 1963. this is walter cronkite, good night. >> this was the title that became so famous. remember that interview with president kennedy, again, it was 2 1/2 months before he was assassinated. walter cronkite from his first 30 minute won broadcast for cbs. in 1981, a special look back at his career later in our show.

let's get caught up on some of the top stories. indonesian police are working to identify the two homicide

bombers who attacked a pair of american luxury hotels in jakarta, killing at least eight people, wounding more than 50. the attacks may have the markings of an al-qaeda linked group. also two u.s. crew members are dead after an f15 aircraft crashed in afghanistan. the pentagon not recently the specific location of the crash. a second aircraft flying next to the fighter say they did not come under any enemy fire. the world remembering walter cronkite who died yesterday in his home in new york city. he was 92 years old. a long time cbs anchor was often called the most trusted man in america. >> president obama assigned czars to handle everything from energy and the economy to closing guantanamo bay, create jobs. who are these people and how do we measure their success and failure? we take a closer look. >> they're not confident that his marching orders were simple.

>> he said, don't let the world stop and then left me on my own. >> reporter: two years before the big ball fell in times square, he set about making sure computers that had been counting the years upward in two digit form didn't crash and cause problems for others when the date changed from 99 to 00. he says the key was recruiting partners. >> the expertise and the people who are able to givity background information you need are lodged in those agency. >> contrast him with the czars who has been fighting the drug war. >> this is your brain on drug. >> vice president biden coined the term drug czar. no one really expects this man to solve the problem. >> we had a drug czar for years. well, have you noticed any major coordination, improvement, and better programs because of them? >> president obama has named an urban affairs czar and domestic

violence czar who presidential scholar says may be less problem solvers than symbols of concern. >> a lot of constituents and interest groups. it might be deemed a success that he was appointed a czar. >> one recipe for a successful czar is ability for a specific task in a set amount of time and helps to have bipartisan support. car czar got gm and chrysler in and out of bankruptcy in record time. but now ron broom replaced him with a less defined job of looking after the government's investment in the company. the president's energy and environment czar has little bipartisan support. tax problem for former senate majority leader doshle who withdraws his nomination and now bogged down on capitol hill where daschle would have had a lot of influence. it may be the president's determination to stay on big

problems doesn't lend itself to using czars. >> it's a small category if it's a one time, one shot deal. the chance of a success might be higher than if it's a broader issue that's complex. >> it may be our measure of success for a czar is not president obama's, since we don't know how much he's willing to compromise and if he gets part of what he wants, he may thank his czars for making a difference. in washington, fox news. >> i think we should be the news czars. >> yeah. will we get paid for that, you think? >> like paid vacation, benefits? >> i don't know. >> i'll do it and look into it. >> i want to be the dancing czar. figure eight. you're not ready for it yet. >> we'll prepare for selves for her dance moves. we're also going to talk about breaking up because it's never easy.

>> a clip from a movie. splitting up the house can get messy in a divorce. but the bad economy forcing a lot of people who would like to split up to stay together. dr. keith adlow has sensible on making a bad situation livable and sane.

love. that was a very funny movie, kathleen turner, michael douglas in the war of the roses. each terrorizing one another to force the other one out.

but today's tough economic times make it difficult for couples to separate, the market is so bad, the couples are finding they really can't move out because they can't sell their home or they'll get too little in a sale psychiatrist dr. keith adlow is here with how to make a bad situation bearable. i would think it's a nightmare situation if you're in the process of getting divorce, yet you still have to stay in the same house. that's rough. it's almost like, what do you do? you have to stay in the house, unless you have family, i guess. >> you do. exactly. there are couches in other people's houses. but here is the thing, i'm seeing it in my own practice, it turns out that people have more band width in terms of how they can arrange the furniture here than they thought they did. so this is a kind of silver lining of our economic depression, if you will, or recession, is that people are holding on longer and coming up

with creative solutions so that they're focusing on their kids or each other as friends and they're giving each other, interestingly enough, it's like any ally in therapy, because they're giving each other a longer window to try to fix things. it's not just that they're sitting at home saying it's over, this is horrible. they're saying maybe we can fix it. >> that's the bright side. and i love your optimism. there are people who are like, they're living together. >> but now the husband is going out and dating. that sounds like a recipe for disaster. what advice do you have for these couples dealing with this kind of thing? >> it can be a recipe for disaster. there needs to be a safety valve f. you're one of these couples who would have said, listen, we are done, but you can't say that now because there is only one job now in the family, or there is only one house and you're trying to cling to it with every dollar you have, you have to allow yourself escapes. it might be a family member that gives you domicile for a time.

it might be you allow each other more room. i think you have to factor this in. you can't ignore it. so you have to treat each other very much more sensitively. but getting back to my optimistic view, i will note this, it's never the joyful times, by the way, that i say as the glue that holds couples together, that holds couples together. it's the tough times. so as people confront economic adversity, even if their marriages have dissolved to the point where they're saying it's over, sometimes in therapy they will say, you know what, i'm finding that having a common enemy, this economy, this trouble, is bringing us closer together. it's not every time, but it's enough times that i'm noticing it. >> we also have to consider that there are many of these situations, there are children involved. how do you have the parents talk to the children and explain what's going on? >> exactly. these are such complex situations because you have people living on different floors of a house. you have somebody on a couch.

>> mommy, why is daddy sleeping on the couch? that's got to be a hard thing to explain. >> it is. you know what, i'm a big fan of home steady where parents keep their house and one of them moves out and then the other one moves out so there is a rotation into the family home of the parent. i think this interim period where you say to kids, listen, we're trying to make this work, but we're not sure we can and dad is going to be sleeping on the couch is a kind of saving grace. it let's kids adjust. >> thank you very much. great seeing you. >> thank you. >> he was truly a legend in his own time. we will take a look back at the remarkable life and career of walter cronkite when we come right back. crest whitestrips has created a revolutionary strip
