the republican did, larry. >> larry: dana bash, what's the sentiment on the hill? is there a chance the house will pass the senate version and get this quicked passed by going to the senate and they'll approve it, they don't need 60 votes? >> reporter: it looks very, very unlikely this evening. i spoke to many how democratic lawmakers, and many said they don't see it possible. they personally would not vote yes, and all you need is a couple of house democrats to drop off. that throws that idea of the house passing the senate bill out the window. what is next? that is such a big question mark. house democratic leaders huddled in nancy pelosi's office a short while ago to watch the returns, and they're trying to figure out what to do with health care. there is no clearer path. all of the options are very, very bad when it comes to trying to hold onto that very, very big and broad health care bill. it actually surprised me larry several rank and file democrats told me that they think that maybe the best thing to do is to scrap that big bill and to go for something sma

i'm dana with the u.s. bill of rights foundation. going back to being allowed into the archives of ayn rand, if rand were alive at the time that you came looking for that do you think she would have agreed with their position of not letting you have access because they might disagree with there's? and the other question that tax on to that is, you know, i came back and remember when they would not export anything beyond her written words and now that they've gone into this what they've done is driven more out of business. you have to admit that is a business out there and the need to make money just like anybody else so now they are not as pristine i think as they would like to claim to be. and i was wondering if i could have your thoughts on that. >> in spite of the fact i think the ayn rand institute wouldn't approve of either of our books, they are probably glad to have been published because they can't help but increase sales of her books and that is a large source of income for the ayn rand institute. i don't think she would wan

the president of the united states, again this was george bush, going overseas and the columnist, dana milbank, suggested that for the coming period of time, the president was getting ready to step out of his role as head of government to function in his other role as head of state and, so i was teaching at princeton and i asked my students, well, you know, what does that say so to you? what do you think about when you hear this? people would answer, well, it means he will be talking about not domestic issues but international issues, basing rights, trade agreements and so forth as meets with kings and you know, other heads of state. so, well that's not the point of that article. because it talked about the president stepping out of his role as head of government to act in his other role as head of state. i said the president is not the head of government. we don't have a head of government. that is not our system of government. we have independent, equal branches. and i make that point again, even though i know you've already, you probably underlined it and, gene probably and ross giv

the prime minister is not dana crawford we now have a policy of regime change. the prime minister is absolutely clear both before crawford, at crawford, and subsequent to crawford that the policy of the british government was to pursue saddam hussein to united nations. i think i was very clear in his public cordons at the time. and the reason why i think it was important to point out that i think christopher mayer's brother overstated themes that, for example, he made a point about the speech that the prime minister made the next day at the george bush senior presidential lives. and they talked about regime change and so forth. if you read the speech he talks about the three previous occasions on which he had been involved in regime change, the taliban and, sierra leone, and kosovo. so i don't really accept this analysis that at crawford there was this fundamental shift of approach and policy by the prime minister. and we point out to the prime minister in relation to his pursuit of disarmament to saddam hussein, the way he was, yes i did. >> you did support it

and there was a column written by a guy named dana milbank. i see him on that show, keith ole bermann fellow -- olbermann fellow "countdown." he doesn't strike me as a rush limbaugh or glenn beck guy either. he put pen to paper and talked about the slabs of pork in the bill. and you can begin with the louisiana purchase. apparently in order to get the senator from louisiana, senator landrieu onboard, she received $100 million in 2011 in extra medicaid money for louisiana. now, why is that important? because as both gentlemen have correctly pointed out, the senate piece of this bill -- i mean, how do you take whatever the number is. some people say 47 million, some people say it's 15, how do you cover more people without it costing money? everybody gets that. and so clearly when you say that some of that's going to be taken up by the medicaid systems within the states it's going to cost those medicaid systems more money. so senator landrieu said, well, in order to get my vote, ok, it can cost more money in tennessee or michigan or ohio in medic

as i said to dana, you know -- when we get through the review, i don't think it's completely analogous some of the walls that the bureaucracy had constructed prior to 9/11. i think some of that obviously has been knocked down and there is -- there is -- there's a greater amount of information-sharing. and there's a greater amount of sheer intelligence that's collected. the president wants to know where the systemic failure happened and what we're going to do to ensure that we can do everything in our power to make sure it doesn't happen again. i think you'll hear the president talk about that. >> is that possible? and also what is the core reason why they want to blow us up? >> i don't know that i'm the best person to speak for some of their actions. >> having information you said. >> well, look, again, i think for whatever -- for whatever awful and murderous reason that people seek to get on planes and do innocent people throughout the world harm, i can't speak to the type of deranged mentality for somebody to do that. >> you don't know who's motivating all of this? >> well, i can cer
