they manage to come in to lexington and look around and find lexington is in total chaos because of the idea of morgan's command. and who shows up in clark county at the home where these two are staying but john m. porter's cousin, thomas henry hives. he was a captain in morgan's command and he had actually heard -- i don't know how -- that these two fellows were in clark county looking for morgan. and he was out looking for these two. they were searching for one another and they find one another. , is is one of the most interesting human beings ever to come out of the civil war. he would be a captain in the ninth kentucky cavalry during the war with john m. porter. tom hines was captured in ohio with john hunt morgan and they would both be incarcerated in the ohio penitentiary and, as would mastermind the escape of john hunt morgan and six of his men out of the ohio country in november of 1863. then he would go to canada and from canada he was the architect of what became the northwest conspiracy, attempt by the confederate war department to cause an uprising in l.a. and indiana to fre

well, they manage to come into lexington and look around five and a find that the lexington is in total chaos because the idea of morgan's whole command coming up here. and as they were back in clark county, who shows up at the home where these two fellows stand but john porter's cousin, a man named thomas henry himes, who also came from butler county, himes was the captain and morgan's command coming and he had actually heard how he heard i have no idea what he actually heard that these two fellows were in clark county looking for more incoming and he was out looking for these two fellows so it was like they were both searching for one another and they found one another. well, this tom hines has to be one of the most interesting human beings ever to come out of this part of the state in the civil war. he would be a captain in the ninth kentucky calgary during the war with john porter. tom hines would be captured in ohio with john hunt morgan and both be incarcerated in the ohio penitentiary and would be tom hines who would mastermind of the estate of john hunt morgan and six of his men

and they come into lexington. again, they search around lexington, they try to get to union occupation people if they know where morgan is, and then they set about wandering around the countryside here, looking for him until they finally reach georgetown, kentucky on the 15th of july, 1862, and there is morgan's command. they have just outside of town. and all three of them joined back up. hines joins back up literally and porter and kikendahl join morgan's command. within two days, they have weapons and mounts and they are in the battle of cynthiana, kentucky. no trains, they just joined and begin to fight. this beginning john porter's career with john hunt morgan. it goes all the way through until june 1863 when he is captured with -- in a company with tom hines, tom hines isn't captured, but john porter is. and union patrol catches up with hines' company and this company is on an advanced scout from morgan. morgan's whole division is coming into kentucky in advance of crossing the ohio river and entering indian

loads and loads of harmer's hummers military vehicles lined up all are along lexington avenue. we saw members of the army and members of the air force standing outside i did it for. some of the some of the military officials that were in uniform for the air force i asked him why why do you have so many vehicles lined up lexington avenue why are so many men and women in uniform here and he said that we've been deployed here to be prepared in the event of a serious emergency in the event you have to rescue people out of poms out of the building i could tell you that the city is prepared for the worst most new yorkers are hoping that the stories being overblown that it's being hyped up but i can't imagine that in time in this kind of time a time of economic crisis where cities would go and spend so much money and the federal government if this was not a serious storm and at this point we're waiting we're seeing it seems a little bit like a movie where you know you don't know what's going to happen but you're just prepared and that's the the circumstance here in new york that's rig

one of them ended up in the lexington lunatic asylum which, of course, fed the rumors about others.o it, i think it's just the circumstances of the family. that caused that belief to build. >> so before all the tragedy, what kind of life did they lead here at ashland? >> i think it's a fairly normal life for the upper class of the society. clay loved having his children around him. one son, he built a home just to the east of here. in fact, it was on the edge of the property. they would come up and have dinner once a week with the family. the younger sons, another daughter bought a home to the southwest of here. the sons would ride over to see her, and she became as much a surrogate mother, lucretia had the other children and grandchildren to take care of, and so ann would be the big sister to her brothers. they had slaves at that point in time who took care of the children, who made sure they didn't get into trouble. um, they were pretty free to ride and romp and play as they would. and you can imagine in this house, it's a large home, but for five or six, seven children at any one

michele bachmann also gave a shoutout to lexington and concord for their work in the revolutionary wara neighborhood state or a generic america, she did it when she was in new hampshire because she thought the massachusetts towns of lexington and concord were towns in new hampshire. >> i love new hampshire and what we have in common is our extreme love for liberty. you're the state where the shot was heard around the world. >> no. you know, people make mistakes, i make mistakes all the time, constantly. candidates make mistakes. candidates do not usually make this many mistakes, though. and here's the thing whether or not gasps like this from michele bachmann are important politically for her. michele bachmann, as far as i can tell, like allen keys, michele bachmann is making sense. her candidacy makes sense, there's a reason why more than a god fly, less than a contender candidacies are an important part why republicans run for president. one of the outcomes was him getting a tv show on the cables, which not only paid him, but helped him maintain his influence. he ran for president ag

now ileana ros lexington has and again as the chairman of the house foreign affairs committee the congressman has been trying to cut u.s. funding to the united nations and play some tough restrictions on the international body if they want us to keep putting money in and so as a continuation of this bush and in anticipation for a palestinian statehood dr at the u.n. general assembly next month today ross left and introduced another bill now this bill would require the u.n. to adopt a voluntary budget model which countries selectively fund agencies rather than according to a set formula it would limit the use of u.s. funds to only purposes outlined by congress it would end funding for palestinian refugees and withhold u.s. funding for any u.n. agency that upgrades the status of the palestinian observer palestine observer mission it also halts all your contributions to un peacekeeping missions until further reforms are implemented amp it would withhold u.s. funding from the human rights council until the state department can certify that it doesn't include any members subject to security counci

that will already be familiar with a school bus when sch >>> a bit of scare for some children in lexingtonkentucky after a suv crashed into a school bus. the car was driven by a four-year-old girl. she took car keys while her mom was asleep and used a stool to climb into it. she got out of the suv when it started moving but that is when it hit a school bus but fortunately no one was hurt. >> from driving to parking. sometimes it costs more than you bargain for. san francisco merchants are so fed up with how parking tickets are hurting business they decided to hold a contest. here a jonathan bloom. >>> i'd rather not relive it. >> eric shawn's parking sale begins this week. >> the lady was loading a bunch of stuff from walgreen's into the trunk. >> he pulled over. he waved the parking officer and when the space opened up he parked there. >> two months later i get a parking ticket in the mail. >> it was no mistake. a $250 ticket for blocking a bus stop. he appealed but mta wouldn't budge. >> he one honorable mention for the most outrageous parking ticket story. they one got two tickets in on

bloomingdales on lexington in the low 60s . shuttled. bloomies not having a sunday.. and the subway systems and all of the transits are closed down monday. and boston will be hut down tomorrow as well and new york city is in hurricane irene's sight. we'll have live report. shepard smith. and gerarledo rivera begins in the top of the hour and that is times square and what it looks like if no one is there. y? i'm not having a heart attack. it's my back. no, this is new bayer advanced aspirin... clinically proven to relieve tough pain twice as fast as before. what, did you invent this or something? well, my team did. i'm dr. eric first, from bayer. wow. look. it has microparticles. it enters the bloodstream faster and rushes relief right to the site of pain. better? great! thanks.

you're the state where the shot was heard around the ward at lexington and concord. >> i don't doubthat, but the battles were fought in massachusetts. the latest gaffe may be her best, wishing elvis happy birthday on the day of his death. i think she's just upset because of this. ♪ don't you ♪ step on my blue suede shoes ♪ >> you see bachmann might be upsetç that elvis may have sai blue suede shoes, you know, blue rather than red? my fear is whether you wear blue she's, red shoes, blue or red states, we mayll

make fun of something like concord or lexington, but this woman was obviously joking.you know, you get on the campaign trail and these people get tired. they'd like a laugh now and then. she's entitled to that. left wing barbs don't need to make things up. >> it's low hanging fruit. it's an anti-washington joke. >> it is a joke and there is a larger point here. i wish folks in the media will forget about the politicians talking religion. people in the media need to stop talking about religion. it's something that's incited the issue on michele bachmann, the new yorker about her faith which in turn bill keller said influenced his opinion on the republican presidential field. i read liz's column that a lot of left wing blogs were linking to comments about michele bachmann and he got facts about christian theology wrong, mischaracterizing what main stream christian theology says. we have a nation that 70% of people according to barna say they are christian and you have a media talking about christians and getting the basic facts wrong. it's causing things to whip up into

on 41st street and lexington avenue, the heart of midtown manhattan, 21-year-old gregory mccullough,udent and part-time tow truck driver, and his passenger, judith bailey, are stopped at a traffic light. they are in the wrong place at the wrong time. >> we were just having a casual conversation about, you know, life and things, our aspirations. the next thing you know, i hear boom. >> a surveillance camera shows what happened. the top of the screen, out of nowhere, the street explodes as if a giant bomb goes off. >> you could see absolutely a terrorized expression on all these people's faces because they didn't know what it was. they probably thought it was a bomb in the subway system. >> with september 11th never far from new yorkers' minds, many think the explosion is another terrorist attack. >> yeah, you think it's terrorism. that's the first thought that goes through anybody's mind. >> people run for cover as the dirt, rocks and asphalt blasts into the sky and rains down. and after the explosion, a nonstop gigantic geyser of steam shoots up nearly 80 stories, an incredible sight

one of them ended up in the lexington when it took asylum, which, of course, there were rumors about others. so, it -- but think it is -- just the circumstances of the family that were built. >> so before all the tragedy what kind of life to the lead here? >> i think it is a fairly mobile wife for the upper class of the society. loved having his children around. one son built a home just to the east of here. in fact, it was on the edge of the property. they would come up and have dinner once a week with the family. the younger sons, daughter bought a home to the southwest of here. the suns would ride over to see her, and she became as much as surrogate mother. lucretia and the other children and grandchildren. and so and would be the big sister to her brother's. they had slaves at that point in time he took care of the children and made sure that they did not get into trouble. free to ride and romp and play as they would. and you can imagine in the south it is a large home, but for five or six, seven children at any one time they get stalled very quickly. they were out and about and

richard's books, and where in the capital city of kentucky, which is frankfort, not louisville or lexington, and we have been in business for 33 years. which is pretty outstanding for a small bookstore. we have i think a community center. we do readings. we have music year. we exchange community information. so i think we are kind of the hub of downtown. and the hub of frankfort, in fact. we are right across from the old capitol building, so we have lots of tourists coming through. visitors that need to go to our capital government offices. so we have lots of folks of all different types coming to downtown. >> any particular kind of book that the kind of want, history books, political books? >> this is a political down soviet quite a few people reading political blogs. and lincoln being born in kentucky. we sell a lot of lincoln material. but we also have a little press that is done historic images of old frankfort. those books have been really successful. >> people are reading differently nowadays. how is poor richard's books the keep up with that? >> people are still reading. and i think

i think you are living in lexington, massachusetts at the time?and jim organized his own soundtrack with an amplifier and speaker and he spoke through a microphone loudspeaker. we want roosevelt and other roosevelt slogans. the problem was that there was a thunderstorm and it lieu out the speaker and amplifier shorted out, so at least as jim has said, that was the end of his campaign for front and roosevelt in 1936, but it worked. every state but maine and vermont. >> i elected him. >> he elected roosevelt and by a great landslide history so i think we should thank jim for that. [applause] amazing because of jim's role and roosevelt scholarship. he actually only got to see the man once, which was if you had to choose a moment to see fdr if you had known this would probably be one of the seven moments i would have liked to have seen him if i had the choice. he was there at a the boston garden in 1940. i think it was the night before halloween as i remember. roosevelt was speaking and the famous thing he said was, i will say this and i will say it a

when i felt this, i felt that's a little bit shaky for the number 6, 5, 4 running up the lexington avenuee. when other people said did you feel that, i think it was a quake. it was a much wider scope. we've had a major evacuation of all of these buildings here. we've talked to several people who described what they felt. >> bunch of people from the office, take the stairs out. we all decided to follow and get out. downstairs in the lobby. >> i was on the floor, i thought i was woozy because everything seemed like it was moving. i realized it was an earthquake. >> so everybody just started coming outside? >> yeah. i went to the hallway and they said we had to go down the stairs and evacuate. >> have you been in an earthquake before? >> no. >> everything just started to shake a little bit and just like -- >> okay. >> another man, a construction worker in different building thought it was a prank, that his friend was doing something. we were covering the dominique strauss-kahn case which is a bombshell in a different way. we have susan candiotti, cnn reporter covering the press conference by

lexington followed. the americans discovered the importance of the individual's right to bear arms. then came bunker hill, and that was followed by a declaration of independence by the massachusetts legislature. virginia followed suit after patrick henry's starting call for liberty or debt and a declaration of war against britain. his call echoed across the continent and rose so many americans on july 4th, 1776 all 13 states declared independence from britain. and who were those original tea partiers, who were those men on the shifts that sparked a revolution and helped bring down the one entire and create another? who boarded those ships and dumped the tea partiers in the boston harbor? sam adams hancock at the time they swore never to reveal each other's names, to prevent their arrest for treason committed immediate death on the gallows. while the earnings remain secret for decades after the tea party, but they are now listed in my new book. the list will surprise you. one irony of the tea party, however, is that none of those who dumped tea into the boston harbor rose to prominen
