louisa catherine is politically and attuned figure. i don't think you would find her dictating a platform. john quincy was 100 years ahead of his time. famously, in his first message to congress, -- remember this is a man whose legitimacy had been questioned. and yet, he introduced this breathtaking program that anticipates the new deal by 100 years. saying the federal government should we in the rowboat and business. there should be a national university and washington. he proposed a national astronomical observatory. a white house of the sky. for this, he was ridiculed by the jeffersonian small government crowd. it did nothing to enhance his popularity at the time. it may have contributed to his defeat for reelection. 100 years later, it looks prophetic. >> hi, jennifer. >> i am enjoying this series, i watch every week. >> thank you. >> my question is, and it may have been shown during the program, i am sorry if i have not noticed, but the portraits you have been showing of the two of them, louisa catherine and john quincy adams, was

. >> catherine: outside the court, a huge crowd waited as the lawyers made their arguments. and emotions were running high. >> "can two women reproduce? can two men reproduce? let's be respectful and understand the institution of marriage." >> "gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender -- they deserve equal rights -- they deserve to be able to be married from one end of this country to the other." after the hearing, plaintiffs and attorneys stepped up to the microphone to give their arguments a final spin. today we feel we clearly presented the winning case for marriage. we believe proposition 8 is constitutional. i think the most remarkable thing that happened in there, was that there was no attempt to defend the ban on gay and lesbian marriage. there was no indication of any harm. two of the plaintiffs challenging the law are a couple from berkeley raising their four boys together. we look forward to a day when proposition 8 is finally and officially eliminated and equality is restored to the state of california. it hurts gays and lesbians in california, it hurts the children we

what should louisa catherine ?dams be remembered for ,> she is a fascinating figure the interest in her should be every bit as much as for her mother-in-law. she is a woman who saw more of the governments of the world than most women of that day. in london, berlin, st. petersburg, washington. she truly experiences and reflects on these experiences through her letters and diaries and memoirs in a way that ring a richness to our understanding of the. she lived in -- of the period she lived in. >> and a life of tragedy. she lived through extraordinary events. crossed paths with remarkable historical figures. it was in the life where she suffered loss after loss. presidency turned out to be, in many ways, disappointing. that is not the note on which the story ends. there is real inspiration there for all of us. >> thank you, as always for your expertise. amanda, nice to meet you and thank you for helping us learn more about louisa catherine adams through your extensive work on her papers. thanks to you for being with u

catherine, st. margaret, and st. michael who instructed her to acquire a horse, soldier's clothing with armor, and an army and drive the english out of france. so her actions are based on her faith in her voices. shaw was a co-director for the first london production in 1924 with sybil thorndike in the title role, and he reminded her that joan was a sturdy, independent 19-year-old woman, not a sweet angelic little girl. the story of joan is fascinating. she was a village girl born in the early 1400s, a warrior in her teens and was accused of heresy and witchcraft because she would not deny her visions and voices and consequently was convicted and burned at the stake. almost 500 years later, joan was canonized by the church. shakespeare, bertolt brecht, maxwell anderson and jean anouilh all have dramatized the joan story, each reflecting a personal point of view and interest. to meet the challenge of that role required a special actress. our guest is that special actress who met the challenge, made theater history wit

catherine, let me start with you.a lot of people will look at those clips and say really, $2.2 trillion. where did you get those numbers from? >> well, we had a team of 29 people working on the in connection and our economists basically added up things that don't normally get noticed including things like of course the war appropriations, but increases to the pentagon budget over the last 10 years. some pores of that was devoted to the war in iraq. the v.a., where medical and disability payments are huge and the debt on the war already being paid. that plus looking forward to the obligated funds that go to veterans, who have been wounded. you get $4.2 trillion. >> how about the number of iraqis killed. where do we get that from? >> iraq body count has been using media accounts and trying to get one by one all of the different casualties but we know that number is very conservative. that's just who's been counted so far and we estimate that that will probably be twice that number who have died in the war of direct viol
