now, mill, in a sense, represents the -- john stewart mill represents the mill workers' voice. the cotton spinners, in england, were among in many respects the heroes of the civil war. because although they were being exploited, they refused to encourage england to recognize the confederacy. why? because although they were exploited working class mill workers, they understood that slavery, they believed that slavery threatened their own dignity and identity as free laborers. that they were proud of being free labors even though they weren't making that much. that slavery threatened that. they were the staunchest supporters of the union, of the opportunity to end slavery. mill in his essay in a sense is voicing that view. workers, they're starving to death because of the union blockade. and mill spoke for them. workers refused to recognize the confederacy, break the union blockade, and they truly should be seen as among the great heroes of the war collectively. marks, carl marks who wrote a column for horace greeley's "new york tribune" in the 1850s and followed the war passiona

criticized for drawing distinctions on the known and knowns and unknowns and knowns in all of this and john stewart in the late night -- jay leno got a lot -- they thought this was great fun. i thought this was one of those instances where donald rumsfeld had it right because those people who are in the intelligence business, and i have this from historians, william casey used to distinguish between secret and mysteries and in the intelligence business both of these are of interest if they involve something your enemy or someone else is going to do but there's a difference between secrets and mysteries. secrets have a concrete existence. a secret is how many missiles launchers did the soviet union have in 1985 and the cia spent a lot of effort and money figuring out what the answer to that question was but it had an answer. but then a mystery is, will israel bomb iran next week? that doesn't have an answer, not at this point in time because it hasn't happened. likewise what was aaron burr going to do in the west? that calls in the category of a mystery. i am quite sure that he himself did know -- d

yesterday my son showed me -- i hadn't seen john stewart did he did about jamie dimond. if you haven't seen it coming space to google it. it is just priceless. but one of the things that he shows is jim demint talking to jaime dimond who is saying i really can't chastise you for using $2 billion because here in washington we lose twice that much every single day. so then it comes back to john stewart and he says doesn't senator demint really think that spending money is just the same as losing money? and then he walks him and says yesterday i had $4 million, and now all i see is the freaking highway. where's my money? where's my money? that i think so clearly describes what first of all the sense that somehow it is in the people's money, whatsoever, and this idea that spending money is really a way of losing money in this country. to visions and to have this. that is what the president is talking about, and i want to tell you i am proud once again to be the co-chair of the president's reelection campaign - own barack obama the last 17 years coming and he's talking about
