historians have argued about the causes of the fall of the roman empire ever since it happened when saint augustine wrote that the empire had been part of god's divine plan for the furtherance of christianity through the world that it had now fulfilled its historical purpose. modern scholars have found political, material, economic, social reasons for the decline, but have been most impressed by the spiritual crisis which swept through all roman classes in the fourth century and is marked by the breakdown of the social, ethical and religious concepts which had bound the classical world view together. the roman empire had brought to its rulers inconceivable wealth as we can still see today in its vast building projects. but the rights of individual people to moral fulfillment had never been met. so the rise of christianity, the superseding of the great pagan temples of rome-- like this one of antoninus pius-- by christian churches, marks a fundamental sht in the western story into the inner lif towards personal salvation. the successors of the roman empire would be the barbarians-- angles, saxons, f

point is the most of the country you don't have crazy things like -- talking about the lieutenant augustine can't he served two tours in afghanistan pivoted in fact you notice and today he just got back from kosovo. he's dedicated, wonderful soldier. the lieutenant was i would say illegally transporting his guns to d.c.. they were locked, unloaded in a case in his trunk. he'd been injured in afghanistan and left his guns while he was there. his parents had them in new jersey and he was driving back to south carolina and stopped at walter reed for a check-up but his injuries and in doing so got lost, got turned around and that is a little complicated story but got pulled over and above d.c. police claim that by stopping for medical treatment it was no longer legally transporting, just that one stop. wrong with getting out federal transport laws on guns is a to clarify if the gun is unloaded and locked in your trunk you can drive from state to state and you can stop for gas and stopped to eat and that's fine and medical treatment. wrong way. if he would have gone to trial he would have won bu

poetry and power is the formula for another augustine age. don't be afraid of power. at the bottom of a thank you note to frost afterwards kennedy scrawls, is poetry and power all the way. well i say not so fast jfk. because there was indeed poetry in his first two years in his inaugural address, in his speech during the cuban missile crisis when he said in the case of a nuclear war "that even the fruits of victory would be ashes in our mouths. but, he didn't marry yet the power of the presidency to the poetry of his words. his economic advisor paul samuelson would later say instead of the dashing and decisive president during these years kennedy was in fact quote and extremely hesitant person. now and the introduction to profiles of courage which i believe unlike the rest of the book kennedy wrote himself he praised the eight senators he was about to profile for processing quote the breathtaking talent of the orator compay kennedy, the brilliance of the scholar, well may be kennedy the breadth of the man not yet kennedy and a belief in the integrity and rightness of

the places where saint augustine walks -- walked no longer understand what christianity is the only alexandria remains. there's something there about the endurance of the church and of a people. that's the first aspect. the second one is also first in the story for me, the conventional wisdom of liberalism in egypt. if you're an egyptian liberal, and i use the term very loosely here in this case, then you naturally believe that egypt was heaven on earth, and then they came in 1952 and destroyed have been. so growing up my basic question was, if it was so great, where does this come from in the first place? is it such a question is that their conspirators grew up in that liberal age? we notice at the same time another person, a bit younger, started another organization. the muslim brotherhood in 1928. the two main solid the organizations that each, 1913 and 1926, the total fascist movement in egypt, in egypt starts in 1913. this is such a course of its that in this group and this liberal age in egypt we get all those illiterate movements? doesn't that mean there was something wrong there? doesn

augustine, is claiming that 70% of today's young people are ineligible for military service. because of mental, physical, and moral shortcomings. now, the mental and physical shortcomings are a function of two things: education and health care. and we're proposing to say, let's cut them. let's drop this whole proposal about affordable care, and who will be the beneficiary of affordable care and better head start and better education? probably 70% of those young people who can't qualify to be recruits in the united states army. so you think we have a problem with national defense? we do have a problem with defense. but it's not simply by buying more platforms, more ships, more planes. it's by having a generation of americans who can stand up and serve. and, mr. president, i could go on, but i just simply want to say that we are in a situation where we have to basically do what we've always done. stood up and said we're going to keep the government moving. we're going to make choices about priorities, but we're going to keep our government open. and we'll debate those choices.

let me move onto kathleen, saint augustine, florida. i think we are the greatest country in the world. many of us here are american by choice. spoke about slavery being predicated only on skin color. that is nonsense. the jews were slaves for years. there were colonies from people -- colonies of people from ireland and australia that were going to south america in chains. it was a cultural thing for many years. what made us great was the fact that our government, for years, believed you had to stand on your own two feet. think that is being taken away from us. food stamps, handouts, that is what is eroding what made us the greatest nation in the world. we told toher news, at the top about this deal reached between the united states and russia over chemical weapons in syria.

you've got norm augustine and thomas mann with their book. it's even worse than you think. guys who have been, you know, scholars of the congress. they try and take a step back and look at what we going to in this period, and the argument is that right now you do have this very extreme right wing tea party faction that is uncompromising and, you know, refuses to try and negotiate these differences for the good of the country. so i think it's too early historically to really answer you question whether this is kind of a permanent condition. it would be very dangerous for the country if this is a permanent condition. because as you know with our system of separation of powers, it requires, especially during these areas a divided government that there be compromised. in fact, caught must is the only thing that stands between a country that works and dysfunctional government in areas of divided government. >> the way you do your job when you come to work is all that different from what it was before you got into this period of crisis? >> well, it is different. i'm sorry, in the
