yesterday was the day that is leader pelosi has pointed out, bill clinton, george w. bush, and president obama have worked diligently to accomplish. president obama, our intelligence community, the members of our armed forces have all work together to bring this day to reality. as the leader pointed out, however, this is one person. this is a person who was diminished in his ability to carry out terror attacks on the united states, its people and its territories, but nevertheless remained a symbol for those who think that terrorism is a policy that is a useful and important to pursue. whether they be islamic jihadists radicals or others who want to buy terror -- by terror accomplish that which they cannot accomplish by peaceful means. we see people reaching for democracy, reaching for an opportunity to participate, reaching in peaceful ways, and bringing osama bin laden to justice was also important for them. terror is not the way. peaceful demonstrations, discussions, actions are. so, yes, this was a date for which we all waited, but we do not delude ourselves that y

george h. w. bush as the same, clinton does the same. the most recent president bush as well and then obama picks up and does the same thing. the reason this is somewhat interesting and not as obvious as it seems is barack obama came to this language a little bit later. during the campaign early on in the campaign in fact it was rare for him to close a speech with god bless america and then questions began to surface of his patriotism. there was the jeremiah wright controversy, that khayat questions and he started taking it very public step to signal his patriotism. one of those is he began wearing a flag lapel. you might recall that came along made a campaign and another is he started closing the speech with god bless america and that continued into the present. to huessy is typical in his use of public religion here are two ways that he's a typical, he's quite different than the past for presidents. the first of those is that he has brought into the category that make up the public religious sphere and the way he did that was straight

time we have made serious progress in reducing the deficit since i have been here in the clinton years and george h. w. bush, when he was president, it was done through a combination of spending cuts and tax increases or revenue increases. i think that is the right formula. if we are going to get the deficit reduced, it's going to take that kind of combination again. >> what is your best moment in the senate? >> i don't have a best moment to offer up to you. >> your fondest memory? >> i've been here 29 years and there have been a lot of good moments, but lots of frustration also. i'm sure everyone who has served in the senate would see it the same way. >> thank you. >> we are back with our reporter. if the senate brings up a bill this week dealing with tax breaks for the big oil companies, what are they trying to accomplish? >> it would cut $21 billion in 10 years for these oil companies. this is for the big five. it does not affect the smaller companies. it has no chance of getting through the house and probably doesn't even have a chance of getting anywhere close to the 60 votes it needs in the
