we went about the tapes in june of 1973, with butterfield. ms. stahl: talking about how watergate relates to today. one minute. last question before we make a switch. i want to know if each of you while the hearings were going on actually felt the enormity of what you were doing, the historical significance of it. were you thinking that you were going to bring down a president? were you kind of consumed with the bigness of it? mr. edmisten: i certainly was. 31-year-old farm boy being hauled down the street in the back of a police car. after the tapes came out, after nixon, i said it was pretty enormous. it dawned on all of us, we were in sort of hushed tones, as i recall. is this going up to the president? i remember ervin said he just did not believe the president of the united states could do all the things that john dean said he did. well, he did and more. mr. hamilton: after dean testified, we became aware where this might go. that it was in the norman's matter in the history of the nation. probably not before dean testified. there was a lot

[laughter] he said, i guess you guys know all the president's offices are bugged with taping devices. ms. stahl: he said "i guess you know?" >> he thought we knew. i said, yes, of course, but

butterfield, to strengthen the f.d.a.'s ability to require immediate at rick studies of cancer drugs -- pediatric studies of cancer drugs. they've never been undertaken for cancer drugs, a study. this bill will require a study into any cancer drug that uses molecular targeting which targets specific cancer cells rather than part of the body where the cancer resides. by requiring these studies, doctors can determine whether the drug is safe and effective in children and ultimately provide accurate labeling for pediatric use. i founded the childhood cancer caucus when i first entered congress to give a voice to the 15,000 children diagnosed with cancer every year and hundreds of thousands of survivors who face a lifetime of medical challenges. passing this bill will provide these children access to the treatments that they deserve. i'd like that all those involved for their tireless work in bringing this bill to the house floor, and as my good friend, little saidy keller, once said who -- sadie keller, who once said, togethe
