mr. mitchell. >> garate mitchell from the natural report. when we last met with your earlier survey on american values it seems to me that bill made the observation that one of the most salient pieces of information that came out of that was coming and i believe as he made it he looked towards the white house and said it would be important for someone who understood the survey to understand the importance of american exceptional was some. today -- and by the way there seem to be some moves by the president shortly thereafter that suggest maybe he had understood that. so, today bill begins his presentation by quoting a chester san america the country with the soul of a church and then says in that church is america or americanism. and i wonder if you could flesh that out all little bit for us. what does that mean, and whether that is directed at the white house or candidates and other parts what is to take away, what does that really mean? >> that exceptional question. how much time do we have? >> let me be inadequately had briefed but i will

mitchell live in washington. it is a tug-of-war on capitol hill with the newly minted super committee locked in the middle. house speaker john boehner says sorry, mr. president, no new taxes to help pay for the jobs bill. are we in storer another d.c. styles jobs bill. senator mark begich, you are one of 36 senators who called for a bipartisan approach that puts you in a special category. looking at what the speaker has said and what the president said, where do you see room to negotiate? >> i hope it's just a little bit of what you have described as washington gridlock. i call it washington show and tell so hopefully we'll get beyond that and honestly as we sat yesterday, 36 of us, bipartisan effort, one of the issues i was excited to talk about, the whole issue of the tax reform debate, if you washed and listened to each one of those democrats and republicans yesterday we got busy talking about how we can move forward on real tax reform that's necessary to propel this country forward. there's a proposal about senator wy zn den, coates and myself put forward for a simplification of taxes, lower the corporate rate and get rid of the loopholes and

mr. president, i had the good fortune to be appointed in 1992 by majority leader mitchell to be a membere select committee on pow-mia. that committee was chaired by john kerry. it was a wonderful experience for a number of reasons, not the least of which is to watch senator kerry, because i really, frankly, didn't know him very well then. i had been in the senate for a few years. when we work here, sometimes you don't really understand how good people are until you work with them on a real close-knit basis as i did with him because of that appointment. he did a magnificent job of chairing that committee. of course, he had some standing to look at what went on in vietnam since he was wounded three times and won a number of silver stars for his heroism in vietnam. but legislatively, that was a great experience for that year, to look to see what had happened in southeast asia. not only vietnam, laos and cambodia, people who had been taken prisoner of war, and certainly if not were missing in action. it was really a good experience for me, and i will always remember that. so this day, nation

mitchell once said -- quote -- "bipartisanship means you work together to work it out." american families and communities are relying on us to work it out and hold out hope that we won't disappoint them. mr. president, go back just a month. we were struggling, struggling hard to work out an agreement that in years past has been simple. just to raise the debt limit in this country on bills we already accumulated. it took three months, but we got it done. one of the things we did was said we no longer have fights during this next fiscal year on funding the government. we agreed on the numbers. now, what the house could not do in good conscience directly, they're doing indirectly. they're sending a short-term continuing resolution to fund the government until the middle part of november, but because they have all these extremists in the republican majority in the house, they couldn't do that. they could not do that. they couldn't send us what they already agreed upon. in fact, they put an addition to the bill, a so-called rider to the bill, saying you're only going to be able to raise the debt ceiling if you agree on our number on emergencies, recognizing that their number will only last a

mitchell who is court-martialed during the coolidge administration. >> host: we have about five minutes left with our guest. >> caller: yes, mr.waller, really enjoyed your presentation. a number years ago a story was related to me by a former oss agent about to oss agents that are actually occupying the seller a general casts players headquarters while we retreated to italy. supposedly the reason why they repair and he was aware of the fact that general koestler was aware of the fact they repair. so the reason that general koestler, he wasn't able to successfully defend his line, that he would be able to surrender through the communications and surrender and save some of the lies of his troops. is this something you're familiar with? >> guest: what i am familiar with is during the assault, particularly after the anzio landing that we had oss officers in the realm. one of the groups come in the intelligence were headed by an oss officer named peter tompkins to one of his agents was in his senior staff there, reporting to him. so there was a lot of good intelligence, and they are that he was getting not only to fight they were d
