so we spent a couple of days there at aspen lodge. we sat in the living room, watched the television, and i was accompanied by my wife lynn and daughter liz. daughter mary was out of the country, enroute back by then. but i can remember sitting there focused, obviously, like i think people were all over the country watching the towers come down, the fires at the pentagon and so forth. and began to think about what we needed to do by way of policy, what steps we might take in order to deal with this new situation. and the thoughts that came to mind were, first and foremost, that this wasn't just a terrorist attack. we'd had a lot of terrorist attacks over the years. we tended to treat them as law enforcement problems. we'd go out and find the bad guys, aroett them, put them on -- arrest them, put them on trial, lock them up. this was an act of war. we had 3,000 dead americans in a matter of minutes that morning, and we needed to treat it as an act of war, and that meant, obviously, you'd martial all the resources of the federal governm

i mentioned a moment ago that the aspen ideas festival has great thinkers like barbra streisand. so i would like to cite another great thinker, george harrison of the beatles. in 1969 george morris arison in the course of a wide-ranging ramble briefly detoured out of the harry krishna chants and lsd into some remarks about the monopolies commission which is the british version of the u.s. antitrust division. and he goes you know, this is the thing i don't like. it's the monopoly commission. if kodak or someone is cleaning up the market with film, the monopolies commission, the comments sent them in and say you're not allowed to monopolize. yet when the government is monopolizing, who's going to send in the monopolies commission to solve that one out? that is one of the most billion observations on government that has ever been made. there was an old joke in britain at the time, why is there only one monopolies commission? [laughter] it is, in fact, an incisive observation on the nature of government. we wouldn't like it if there's only one automobile comfort are only one breakfas

i mentioned a moment ago that the aspen ideas festival has great thinkers like barbra streisand. i would like to cite another great thing. george harrison and the beatles. 1969, in the course of a wide-ranging ramble you briefly de toward in to some remarks about the monopolies commission. he is, you know of others is the thing i don't like. the government says the man and system you are not allowed to monopolize who is going to send in the commission to solve that? that is one of the most brilliant observations on government that has ever been made. there was an old joke. why is there only one monopolies commission. [laughter] it is the main factors, and incisive observations on the nature of government. we would not like it if there was only one automobile company of one breakfast cereal, but by definition there can only be one government, which is why in george's words, when the government is monopolizing, it should do so only in limited areas, particularly true for national governments in the nation the government is more than 300 million people dispersed over, and it. but i

it began with time magazine and the aspen festival of ideas where they tried to trace the pessimism that somehow to 9-11 and the response to 9-11. the 9-11 attack provoked a patriotic, inspired and inspiring response in america. what americans are really concerned about and we see the poll that says that the september 11 terrorist attacks affected 55% of american people, they say that's the real event in their lives. the real issue is leadership in the white house and the malaise and anxiety and dissatisfaction is what's going to happen in the future and why don't we have a plan to bring this country forward? but what we're going to see and what we have seen is this mean, this chant, this incantation and we see it again today in the "new york times" with thomas freedman that somehow president bush blew the lost opportunity of 9-11 that all the problems we're suffering in this country are because of the republican response to 9-11. i find that to be disingenuous and it's not reflective of the great incredible response of americans to 9-11. >> steve: indeed. and it's interesting that you s

i think -- >> during to the environmental forum here and ask them, -- in aspen, did any of your questionse united states or for the world. >> essentially, how the client -- and how did climate change factor into this at all? >> ways to deal with it have fallen off of the national agenda. one of them is that if we can't deal with some of these challenges and issues that are squarely in front of us and susceptible to human intervention and being able to deal with in our own communities and our own lives, how can we even comprehend dealing with something that has taken centuries to get to this point? i am not saying that we should be, but i think that is the national psychology. >> in this pull, i don't think there is a direct question on climate change. i can say from another poll that we recently completed the americans are generally getting a greater and greater consciousness as it relates to the environment. and as it relates to climate change. also see that developing in china and india. if you penpoint americans about the tough problems, front and center is the deficit, unemployment. i
