caller: in 1968, he went to paris, france. i do not consider him a leader. guest: it was for a peace corps type thing the mormon church does. you could probably dig up things i have written making fun of anyone who goes to live in paris. he has done a good job of defending that and making the argument he was doing a terrible thing and fulfilling a public service requirement of the mormon church. that speaks to another thing. during the primary, i was highly skeptical he would be able to get beyond his mormonism with the christian voters. it is remarkable how he has managed to make it not be an issue. a lot of it has to do with the business of explaining not the differences between warm innocent and the other christian -- mormonism and the other christian faith, but all of the stories that have come out about his charity work and the generosity, and things like that, which would include the mission work in paris. i think it allays the fears some people have about him being part of a cultish religion when it is just part of being in a christian religion. host:

japan business federation's chairman met france's foreign minister in paris on tuesday. they discussed france's cooperation to gain the e.u.'s consent to start talks to conclude an economic partnership agreement with japan. the chairman said that france is a country that built the foundation for european integration so he thinks the free trade deal will be beneficial for both sides. on the other hand, the french minister urged japan to remove non-tariff barriers in various fields such as pharmaceuticals. he added that japan must also open its market wider to get the talks underway. he cited the railroad industry as an example. >>> japanese trading house mitsubishi corporation plans to invest in a geothermal power generation project in indonesia. it will all consider launching similar projects in japan. mitsubishi will buy a 20% stake in star energy, the operator of the largest geothermal power station. the transition will cost $200 million. star energy plans to expand its facilities on java island within five years. its aim is to boost output to 420,000 kilowatts and supp

we're not talking about the consulate in cancun or paris, france.koconsulates of responsibility. certainly the administration should be well aware. >> i think what she said last night reflects her personal opinion and her personal upset over what happened. i think as secretary of state she does feel responsible. but i think that we can't -- we shouldn't try to parse this stoo too much. if she is responsible, she works for the president and that makes the president responsible, too. i don't think she was trying to shift responsibility away from him so much as to say she takes personal responsibility for the decision that's were made. i think it was a nuance to answer. i think certainly the president is responsible, right? any time an american, it seems to me, is killed in the line of duty in an area like that, it represents an intelligence failure. the administration is willing to say, you know, willing to share with the american people what they know when they knew it. but this effort like we saw yesterday of mayor giuliani with sole dad to cover it
