churchill replied i have been looking for a drink like that all my life. on another occasion, churchill was colded by a female pm who declare winston, you are drunk. and he replied yes, and you are ugly but tomorrow i shall be sober. lincoln's humor tended more toward self deprication. he related a town of a woman that looked at him and exclaimed i do believe you are the ugliest person i ever saw. lincoln apologized but then asked what she wanted him do to about it? she thought for a minute and said you might stay home. during the debates in illinois, a spectator shouted lincoln was being two faced. two faced lincoln claimed? if i had two faces you think i would chose this one? lincoln senior was an essential component of the personality. richard carwardine was educated at corpus christi and queen college oxford and at the university of california berkeley. for three decades he caught history at the university of helpfield before being appointed rose professor of american history and institutions at oxford university. and a fellow of saint kathryn's colleg

and churchill was the old victorian, the child of empire, and the empire was slipping away.hat's his particular drama. you know, the series has like six concurrent stories. his story is the man who is growing old and is hanging on too long. >> well, i have to congratulate you on everything you've done. i have to tell you we all loved "terms of endearment" when we first met you in that safeway checkout counter when you were desperate for sex. i thought that was one of the great scenes ever about a guy. and i also loved your audio recording of "bonfire of the vanities." you did all the -- >> oh, my goodness. >> no, you did all the ethnic accents in new york, every accent. you did, you know, ed koch. you did everyone. those great lines from the guys in the street. >> that's wonderful. i never get a compliment for that, chris. >> you deserve more than that. >> i was very proud of that. thank you. >> thank you, john lithgow. great movie coming out. thanks for coming on "hardball." >> it's a real pleasure, chris. >>> when we return, let me finish tonight with trump watch. we've ha

churchill college is famous for its archives center. betty's papers had been bequeathed to churchill college archive center. they had been given to the college by a man named harford montgomery hyde, rather interesting individual. he had been a spy for mi6 during the war, a member of parliament, a barrister, and an author. at one stage, when he was looking to do a quick look, he had written sort of a bodice ripping account of a spy code-named cynthia, which was betty's codename. he had gathered up her papers, and after his death, he gave his letters, his documents, and all of her papers to churchill college. i went to the archives not quite knowing what to expect. as soon as the archivist started bringing out boxes, i knew i had struck gold. there was an unpublished memoir that betty had written, her childhood diaries, letters she had written during her life, and address book she had kept that showed her travels around the world. there was even a fairytale she had written when she was 12 years old living with her parents in hawaii that

sweet-and-sour pick feet to winston churchill. take one bite and fdr who love this dish asks him how he likes it. evidently, churchill was not feeling it and says it's interesting, slimy texture and fdr's like wonderful you'll like them fries fried. churchill says i don't think i would like them fried. they both crack up laughing. just to show how much he loved pixie if you go to warm springs georgia they have a case that has preserved the shopping list for the last week of his life. on that shopping list is for hogs feet so, he had the fever. >> he had the fever i was gonna say something else, but it's nasty. >> okay, all right. how are we doing on time? >> i don't know. you're the moderator. [laughter] let me explain this. this presidential pickle thing because you're probably wondering what is the presidential pickle. i did not come across that detail the mac okay, it's my metaphor for how i'm dealing with food. we want our president to be extraordinary but we want them to be like us. food is often gives us a sense of whether t

brian: you talk a lot about winston churchill. how was he at this time?ichael: churchill was approaching 80, and britain was still the dominant power in the middle east. it was everywhere in decline. nationalists were rising up. the big strategic question the u.s. faced was, should it support written against -- support britain against the rising nationalists, or try to create a new order? brian: i want to put up on the screen a map of that area back in 1956. when you look at that, and are going to explain the person that hasn't been thinking about this for years, what would you want them to know? michael: when eisenhower came into office, there were 80,000 british troops in the suez canal zone. the zone was euphemistically wased the suez base, but it really a whole string of bases for the british, and the nerve center of their military position in the middle east and east africa. those troops were surrounded by egyptians who were carrying out a low-level guerrilla war against them. the minutens, eisenhower came to power, they escalated that war in order t

winston churchill documented every thought that he ever had.enhower is a different guy and he is a taciturn midwesterner. he plays close to his chest. the most interesting things are only going on in his head and they are not really documented. these are problems i had as an author. the main character is not as expressive as he could be and he has health problems getting in the way. reallyial moments, he is not at the center of events. and we knows this kermit roosevelt as the oup in iran. the c what i did not know was how ole he played in affairs. as a key interlocutor, you might department would never -- the secretary of state would never gladly hand over an important account to the cia. that was what was happening in 1953 and 1954. well and allen dulles was the junior partner and younger brother in many regards. they felt that it was best to do things on the quiet and they ran a lot of this relationship through the cia. figurelt became a key rabistswas one of the a who was very convinced that israel was a liability to the united states and i

best second, we have to quote churchill.e have a bust of churchill in the capital. -- we hadbig ceremony some relatives there just last year. if you want to figure out where the churchill bust is, go to a tour guide and ask them to see where the steps are that the british used to burn down the capital -- they don't call this a special relationship for nothing. etched in the bust of churchill is an address to congress he gave just weeks after the attack on pearl harbor. a that speech, he delivered speech in a challenging time and challenged our people to turn from the convulsions of the moment to the broader stasis of the future. we are certainly facing one of those hinges in history today. over the past year, our countries voted for sweeping change. some may say it is too much change. if anything, what we are seeing principles of of people reasserting their rights of self-determination against arrogant elites. the forgotten men and women will be forgotten no longer. . shaking up the status quo takes time. we have our share o

to that extent as far as we are concerned, we hold winston churchill in deep regard. by the way he also served as a very young officer during pakistan. there was a post even now. >> they hear our focus here at the library is not autobiographical details of his life but also the concept of leadership itself. the circumstances of your coming to power were front with uncertainty and which you recognize were for fighting terrorism and extremism at home. extreme risk to yourself. what is this say about the future prospects of democracy and democratic institutions in the muslim world? gen. musharraf: that is an important question because when you are educating the minds of people what is happening in the muslim world, what we have to realize is that in the western world it is very colonized for two or three centuries. they became independent after the second world war. all of us were colonized, in the late 40's and early 50's we became independent. then when we became independent we went backwards, having very obscure views. this whole part of us becoming independent, it re

in february 1945 winston churchill lamented to his daughter sarah tonight the sun goes down on more suffering than ever before in the world. the glow by then had been there by several blood years of war and tens of millions had been killed. if you had written about the victims of that violent era especially those caught between the tierney of nazi germany in the soviet union.

if you look back at what economists and politicians like churchill said, they said for yea rs like churchilleach drinking cocktails, but it has never come to pass, now with robots and artificial intelligence, maybe it is around the corner. the idea of leaving aside what the green party is suggesting, a three day weekend, maybe we will have to pay people just to consume. this is an idea that's growing credence amongst economists and particularly silicon valley. state will provide you with a basic wage so you will consume because you won't have a job to do. i wonder what the productivity will be like in ten hours. in sweden they've gone from eight hours to six hour day because they say they get much more productivity out of six hours? this comes back to a wider point, uk productivity and there is a survey from bdo saying that uk productivity is getting worse, not better. at love you getting in touch. daniel says, "not great working a four day week if you get paid per day." maybe you could ask for a payday. squirrel says, "utter rubbish. i suppose it is all right if you have a fluffyjob." rubbi

she was very much involved in that with winston churchill, riding into the desert, a redoubtable britishfigure, intrepid explorer, part spy, part stateswoman, part antiquarian. in the arab world, she learned farsi, she understood everything. magnificently played by tilda swinton, as you would expect. what is well done in the documentary, directed by two women, they resurrected these letters, finding brilliant archive footage from baghdad and damascus — all of that stuff we see on the screen now. the sphinx is an apt figure as gertrude bell stares out. there's footage now from the region which is war—torn and ravaged. war was always something in that sand, but there is an elegance to it, a kind of colonial innocence in that footage which is beautiful. it really summons up a lost time. gertrude bell's voice rings out as a lost voice of the british empire. let's move on to their finest. a british film crew attempting to boost morale during the second world war. what's not to like? in this film, they have bill nighy and gemma arterton. they wanted to make authenticity and optimism shine out

they threw firebombs, smashed windows, they assaulted members of parliament, including winston churchill. those tactics were much covered in the united states press and suffrage activists here feared that those tactics would alienate the very voters they were trying to attract. they shun the violence -- shunned the violence and the label, suffrage. many of these groups took up names like equal franchise society because they thought the term suffrage was now laden with the taint of violence. i suppose you could say it was a reading of public appetite. >> what were some of the challenges you faced in researching this topic? i went to 17 libraries and archives around the country, looking for the footprints of american suffragists and diaries and letters and so forth. of theiratabase interests. i looked at the clubs they belong to, their religions and political parties they were affiliated with. the source of their money. i'm talking about the elite women, the gilded suffragists. i suppose my greatest challenge was, as i mentioned to you earlier, sometimes it would take me all day, a single

another prime minister, churchill, famously preferred jaw—jaw to war—war. did she?gibraltar, famous ape population and all, has been coveted by spain for centuries. the rock's freedom to levy lower taxes is resented by madrid, which wants a say in gibraltar‘s future after brexit, not if those in charge now have any say in it. gibraltar is not a bargaining chip in these negotiations. gibraltar belongs to the gibraltarians and we want to stay british. nothing is going to change that. nobody is going to gut our soul by taking away our british sovereignty. the row over the rock is another brexit complication. every eu state has to approve the brexit deal but spain was taken aback after a senior tory compared the row to the falklands war in the 1980s. translation: it is obvious that in this case — europe and gibraltar — the traditional, british phlegm has been noteable for its absence. today, theresa may calmed the tone of a dispute which had tilted into farce. the notion of a war with spain was always wildly implausible but that dispute goes on and britain will need all

winston churchill said the trouble with arms control agreement, the only people that adhere to them areople you don't worry about to begin with. neil: where did it go, though? we knew they had the weapons and then they disappeared and then under the ground or what have you. we had a full un commitment and understanding that syria had gotten rid of its chemical weapons and magically reappeared so obviously some countries are very adept at hiding this stuff or making you think they got rid of this stuff, what do you make of it and how do we police this going forward? our our intelligence capabilities are not up to the abilities of others to conceal and camouflage and deceive us. just to take the iraq example for a minute, one of the problems that i think we had on the chemical weapons, the rob silverman mission said, we believed saddam hussein. he may have simply been lying. we don't know how many chemical weapons and precursor agents the saddam regime had. there were a lot of speculation before the invasion in 2003 that some of those weapons were going across the border into syria. maybe

and so i read winston churchill essay painting is a past that. a big admirer of churchill, a great leader. he took up painting. and this essay is worth reading, and i basically said what the hell, if this guy can paint i can paint. [laughing] and so i told out to laura and she said yeah, sure. [laughing] and i hired an instructor, gail, she came over to the house and she said what's your objective? i said gail, there's a rembrandt trapped in this body. [laughing] and so she came back realizing i was serious and a painted a cube. then i painted a watermelon. [laughing] and it was a liberating experience. [laughing] not only was a liberating, it was an unbelievable learning experience, so i've been painting ever since for about five years. >> the first question we have is from tina, and she asks did you have a history of painting as a child earlier in your life? did your mom take any of your school painting on the refrigerator? >> i'm sure i was a finger painter. no. tina, you know, it just wasn't, i just wasn't all that interested in art. now i am

churchill's response said, then what are we fighting for?, and a society, culture, the arts are what makes life worth living. the only pursuit that we have -- listen. >> tucker: it is so tempting to make t fun of that but i won. i like the arts. i sincerely do. i'm just saying there are priorities and you have to create a hierarchy of what is most important. right now, everyone is under the gun. why can't you look at the camera and say, jeff bezos, you are the second richest person in america, give us $10 billion? >> i'm sure that jeff bezos and a lot of other multimillionaires and billionaires give a lot of money to thena arts. >> tucker: i'm not sure about it all. >> the arts in new york are thriving, d.c., they give money to bigig organizations. >> tucker: they could put this bill and an afternoon without thinking about it. >> that is not the point. the point is that when you have a government that represents the people, as described in the constitution, being a responsible for the general welfare of the people, you want to make sure that

and churchill's response was what are we fighting for?society, in a culture the arts are what make life worth living. look, the art is the only pursuit that we have. >> tucker: it would be so tempting to make fun of that but i'm not going to because, again, i like the art. i like the arts. i sincerely do. i'm just saying there are priorities. you have to create a hierarchy of what's most important. right now everyone is under the gun. why can't you, look at the camera and say hey, jeff bezos, you are second richest person in america. why are not give up $10 billion if it's that important? >> i'm sure jeff bezos and a lot of other multimillionaires and billionaires give a lot of money to the arts. >> tucker: i'm not sure at that. >> the arts in new york are thriving and d.c. they give money to big organizations. >> tucker: they could foot this bill in the afternoon without even thinking about it? >> but that's not the point. the point is that when you have a government that represents the people. >> tucker: right. >> as described in the co

. >> you know, winston churchill, my hero, once referred to john foster dulles as a guy -- he's a bull that carries his own china shop with him. and, kathleen, it looks like he just wants to fight with everybody. it's like a groucho marx character, i'll fight anybody in the house for a dollar. why does he want to have a constant face with north korea, iran, and maybe not russia because that's his bromance, including europe? go ahead. >> that's his m.o. when he doesn't like what someone says, then they're the enemy. when he doesn't like the media, then we are the opposition party. so basically he approaches all problems and all nations as if they were each and every one of them oppositional to him. so his idea that america first would -- you know, that america would always be first in any negotiation, in any policy decision, that's fine and good but not if that means that every person, every nation is suddenly on the enemies list. and if they're not, we're going to quickly make them join the enemies list. i mean what's going on in north korea is frightening and now china's military is p

despite the enthusiasm we can see, to quote churchill, it is the end of the beginning, not the beginninge end. donald trump, who didn't want to get embroiled in foreign conflict, has just ordered us forces into action as he ended his address last night, he didn't sound like an isolationist. good night and god bless america and the entire world. thank you. the president, not yet 100 days in, has travelled a long way in a short time. russia — which supports president assad — has reacted angrily — accusing the united states of violating international law. there would be negative consequences it said. moscow also accused president trump of damaging the fight against terrorism and so—called islamic state group in syria. until recently, the russian media have been singing donald trump's praises. no more. today, state tv accused him of an unprovoked show of force with the missile strike he ordered on a civilian air base. moscow said it was a gross, groundless violation of the international rule book. it's definitely an aggressive act against international law, against a sovereign country, and w

( cheers and applause ) i just think that -- no, and i'm not -- it's not even about that but if you have a platform like you and i do, i just think it's so irresponsible if you don't stick up for people and if you want to be a person that's, like, posting a selfie the day after trump gets elected then you're a (bleep) asshole. you know what i mean, right? i hear you, i hear you. >> who knows how long i'll have a tv show. i don't really give a (bleep). i make so much money i don't even need a tv show. i think it's important to stick up for people, when people are shy about it and don't want to ostracize it or a component to have the fan base if you're from a certain section of the country and you're like oh i have a clothing line. it's, like, no, no, i don't have a clothing line and i hope i don't ever have a clothing line. i hope i have a tennis ba

i came across a sentence by winston churchill who said, "if we ever had to choose between europe andhe open sea, we will always choose the open sea," so we are now out there on the open sea, and we have seen by the answer of the president of european council, but immediately the tone here in britain has changed, and one is talking about provocation by the eu 27, going down the path of war, and let'sjust say it is a sensitive situation we are in, and i think everybody who was a stakeholder is to be treating us with a lot of responsible too. how much, stephanie baker, do you think we are at breaking point? we had this from britain saying we must do the two things together, we must have our divorce negotiations but also our trade agreement running side—by—side, and brussels says, angela merkel says, divorce first and then we talk trade. i think this shows you how complex these negotiations will be. they can't even agree on process, let alone the issues at hand. there was some hope, and some people expressing hope that theresa may's letter to donald tusk this week might have led to some
