why is it important to you to be with us tonight, mick? >> well, you know, haiti is a -- was obviously one of the most poor countries in the western hemisphere. it's very closed to the united states really. it's had a long relationship with lots of countries i've been involved with, united states, france, and it's like a desperately poor place. when these terrible disasters happen in a very poor place, it's magnified over and over and over and over what it would be in a country that was more accea acce accessible with more infrastructure left. this is a huge, massive disaster for one of the poorest, poorest countries. it's so poor, it's very hard to describe how poor it is compared to all the other countries in our hemisphere. >> larry: we're raising a lot of money for haiti tonight, and that's the number one thing they need. what have been your feelings as you've watch this had disaster? >> well, you know, an earthquake is -- it's like an incredibly, physically damaging but it's very psychologically damaging, because all the laws that gov

which placed him as kissinger's mentor and nixon did not read most newspapers but happen to read mick's article and said to take, do you know this guy? get him in here. let's talk to him. i know i have been getting his memos and have been for years and henry is out of the country and maybe we can talk to him when henry is not here. henry came back and said to take, oh no, i am going in there with grammar and then he says to kramer, please to not lecture the president. he says to the president, now mr. president threats is going to disagree with a lot of their policies so they get in there and they start not to commit out that all. there is tremendous respect for one another, and indeed kramer the start lecturing the president and it is wonderful to uphold especially when he shuts up kissinger who in the meeting has never won who was easily shut up so just a wonderful moment. very illuminating of all the characters and they think it's moments like that that we found that were both surprising and eliminating for me. >> and at the very and as he is getting ready to leave kramer tells them

i do want to salute mick yaegar and the members of the teamsters and all of those who run ball and "elements to hard hats," a great program that provides jobs for our veterans upon their return. we have to understand that in illinois -- we cannot forget our military families. when our soldiers are deployed from the reserves of the national guard, we have family members oftentimes living without great resource. many of our service members, when they enter the military from the reserves of the national guard, make a financial sacrifice. they make less in their military job than they were making in civilian life. these are our citizen soldiers. they had been with us in our country since the beginning of our country. they were there at concord and lexington. they are the militias, the ones who are always there to stand up for our democracy. so they entered the service, they are making a very modest wage indeed prepared family members oftentimes find it hard to pay utility bills, to pay the gasoline bills, the healthcare bills. if the rule has a hole in it, how do you pay for that? we have a good
