but bush doesn't replace rumsfeld. so you're left with cheney and rumsfeld, and rice then becomes secretary of state. that begins to change the dynamic. so the personnel are starting to change. rice becomes -- is closer to bush than anyone else in the administration, including cheney, i think. and that changes the dynamic and then this is followed two years later by replacing rumsfeld. and meanwhile, bush is developing more confidence in his own judgments. it takes a good four years but he sees how this works and he sees how things can go wrong. and he gets to the point where i think, you know, he doesn't -- he doesn't rely on cheney, that's for sure. and really is the most important person on foreign policy in his own administration. as really he wasn't at the beginning. >> i'm not going to skip it, because it's not important, katrina, but we have very little time. and i want to make sure that you give us your view of the financial crisis and how that happened and what impact that will have on his legacy? >> there are

secretary rumsfeld knew that the review was going on. he declined to participate because he didn't agree with revisiting the strategy. in fact, one of the things that was most shocking to me was in the aftermath of the -- the attack on the sommara mosque, that is the moment for everybody in the administration, that the strategy is failing, if we proceed on this course it will be pointless. for everybody except the secretary of defense, whose reaction to is is that it is a affirmation of the nature of the struggle, not that the strategy is failing. and i think that is a window into why secretary rumsfeld was such an impediment to getting the strategy for the war right. which is that the secretary of defense fundamental job is translating the president's political objectives into military plans and resources their execution. and in my judgment, much of the failure between 2003 and 2006 actually sits at secretary rumsfelds' feed. condi rice said in the interviews that the plan for the invasion of iraq was inadequately resourced and the secr

to powell's surprise, he thought rumsfeld would also be replaced, but bush does not replace rumsfeld. so you are left with cheney and rumsfeld and rice who then becomes secretary of state. that begins to change the dynamic. so the personnel starts to change. rice becomes closer to bush than anyone else in the administration, including cheney i think. that changes the dynamic and then this is two years later, by replacing rumsfeld, and meanwhile, bush is developing more confidence in his own judgment. it takes a good four years but he sees how it works and how things can go wrong. he gets to the point where he does not rely on cheney. that is for sure. it really is the most important person on foreign policy in his own administration. but really he wasn't at the beginning. >> i'm not going to skip it because it is not important. katrina, but we have very little time. i want to make sure you give us your view of the financial crisis and how that happened and what impact that will have on is legacy. >> there are several interesting things about the financial crisis for bush and his team.

rumsfeld was a vicious and con descending towards ncs staffers. toward provisional authority had been terrible. rumsfeld belatedly assumed responsibility for the torture at abu breathe and he offered to resign. but president bush refused to accept his resignation. the president said no again in 2006. because of the cost of the so-called revolt of the generation generals, would have made bush look weak. that rumsfeld was critiqued because his performance was deplorable. the president should have fired him. failure to do so was a grieve error. third, bush was slow to augment overall forces. generals and admiral's in the pentagon opposed the surge because it was supposedly break the force. finally, president bush skillfully garnered their ascent by promising to enlarge troop numbers overall in late 2006 in exchange for jay see as support of the search. if this was good policy then and it was emphasize that it was good policy, why was it so belated. why did not take place earlier? when president bush went to war, and in my view, that decision actually

steve got pulled into some of those on occasion by secretary rumsfeld. i came to really loathe these conferences because we would have a review of what was going on in iraq, and usually pretty quickly into it, they would say we're the only department in the u.s. government at war, what where is the rest of the government. and the interagency process is screwed up, and who is in charge of that. and we solved that problem with the surge. because we sent doug luke over to the white house. and as the czar to try to pull all of this effort together. and it was a pleasure working with doug after he went over there. so i think maybe --ly stop there. a and. >> a most to my fellow panelists here. i have a set of four observations that i want to share with you. some of them are sort of memories or flash backs. let me share this first one with you. >> the natural expeer cease, george bush was not a new president, he was six years into eight years. he benefitted from literally hundreds of engagements on iraq. he knew iraq. the germans have a great german phrase, a f

rumsfeld had very strong views, but there is a lot of us who had an enormous amount of sympathy with the idea that we need to change the mission from transition to protection of the population. it was not just me. a lot of people were sympathetic to this notion. there were a lot of back channel conversations going on. we try to help that process along. in september of 2006, we cosponsored with the state department a conference on counter insurgency, in which we spoke specifically about that. i gave a speech about the importance of thinking about population security. but here i think, is what gets lost there's a lot of focus on the increase in numbers fire bug rates and how many we have. i don't mean to suggest that additional forces did not make a difference. they did. the commanders thought they needed additional forces. as secretary rice says in her interviews in the book, additional forces doing the same thing would not have made a difference. there is a chart in the book, if you look at the peak of number of boots on the ground in the surge in a seven, which peaked out one 65, we

secretary rumsfeld had very strong views. there are a lot of us who had enormous amount of sympathy with the idea that we needed to change the mission from train and transition to protection of the population. and it wasn't just me. i think the late peter rodman, mary beth long, a lot of people in osd were sympathic to this notion. and there were a lot of back-channel conversations going on, not just between me and steve, but between me and meghan and me and j.d. to try and help that process along. in fact, in september of 2006, we cosponsored with the state department a conference on counter insurgency in which we spoke specifically about that and i gave a speech talking about the importance of actually thinking about population security and here i think is something that gets a little bit lost. there's a lot of focus on the increase in numbers, the five brigades, how many brigades we're going to have. i don't mean to suggest that additional forces didn't make a difference here. they did. clearly the commanders thought they

so we can give rumsfeld and cheney credit for at least one war for the war on poverty. too soon?inally it took a couple statistics that poverty was reduced and was 22 percent. that's pretty crazy. one out of four. one out of five and in 1973 it was 11 percent and was cut in half. when you look at a graph of where poverty was headed from 1959 through 1973 it is straight down with the effect of putting the brakes and has held steady about 11 or 15 percent since then. so i'll be happy to take any questions if anybody has them. step up to the microphone. >> somebody has to have a question. >> i wonder if you can and with the federal poverty level. >> so one of the things i talk about and how you determine this is a huge thing and what to do about poverty and that we don't know the number. so at the department of agriculture was the formula for determining the poverty line and basically she took the usda figures for nutrition forr family of four and the problem housing is very different food was expensive now is the opposite food was chief and housing is expensive but that word immedi

he found a congressman from illinois named donald rumsfeld. he took over the office of economic opportunity and one of his first tires was a young ambitious intern from wyoming named dick cheney. in 1981, the office of economic opportunity was abolished altogether so we can give rumsfeld and cheney credit for ending one war and the war on poverty -- too soon. a couple statistics. one is the poverty was reduced in 1959, 22%, that is pretty crazy, one in four, one in five. in 1973 it was 11%, in the space of 14 years. when you look at the graph of where poverty is headed from 1959-1973 it is straight down, the effect of putting the brakes on the war on poverty took effect it held steady. the war on poverty, it wasn't. i would be happy to take any questions, stepped to the microphone and let it rip. somebody has to have a question. >> thank you for a talk, i look forward to reading your book. i wonder if you could speak about the decline in poverty. i work in montgomery county with patient population of uninsured adults. the criteria is below 250

he found a congressman from illinois a guy named donald rumsfeld, who took over the office of economicopportunity and one of his first tires was a young ambitious congressional intern from wyoming, a guy named dick cheney. so in 1981, the office of economic opportunity oh eo, was finally abolished altogether. we couldn't give rumsfeld and cheney credit for ending at least one war, and that was the war on poverty. [laughter] what to soon? finally, we took a couple statistics one is poverty was reduced, 1959 poverty was 22%, that's pretty crazy. let me do the math that's one and four, one and five? and in 1973, it was 11% so is cut in half. in the space of 14 years. when you look at a graph a chart of where poverty was headed, from 1959 to 1973, it's just straight down. but since 1973, when the effects of putting the brakes on the world poverty took effect, it is held steady. it's been about 11 to 15% since then. in some ways i think the warm poverty was a success in other ways it was not. i'd be happy to take any questions if anybody's got them, you can step up to the microphone and let

[laughter] which i think is why he and cheney and rumsfeld get along so well. [applause] [laughter and applause] it's always very interesting to see how the ranch air invigorates people when they come down from washington. recently, when vice president cheney was down, he got up early one morning, he put on his hiking boots, and he went on a brisk 20 to 30 foot walk. [laughter] but actually, in all seriousness i do love the ranch. and i love the whole bush family. i was an only child and when i married into the extended bush clan, i got brothers and sisters and wonderful in-laws, all of whom opened their arms to me. included in the package, i got this guy here. i think when you marry someone, you unconsciously are looking for something in your spouse to help fulfill something in you. and george did that for me. he brought fun and energy into my life and so many other things. george is a very good listener, he's easy to be around, and on top of it all, he's a loving father whose daughters absolutely adore him. so in the future, when you see me just quietly sitti

willie found a congressman from illinois, a guy named donald rumsfeld.nd he took over the office of economic opportunity in one of his first hires was a young ambitious congressional intern from wyoming. a guy named cheney. so 1981, the office of economic opportunity was finally abolished altogether did we can give rumsfeld and cheney credit for ending at least one more. and that was the war on poverty. too soon. [laughter]. finally a couple of statistics, one was that poverty was reduced from 22 percent, that is pretty crazy. like living to the map, one in four or five people, f then in 1973, it was 11 percent. it was cut in half and the space of 14 years. so when you look at a graph or chart of where poverty was headed from 1959 - 1973 it's just straight down butit since 1973 the race really went into effect, putting the effect of the brakes on poverty, it took about 11 - 15 percent. in some ways i think the word poverty was a success and in other ways, of course it was not. i would be happy to take questions if you have them. you can step up to the mi

vigorous advocates of iranian nuclear program in the 1970s were people like henry kissinger, donald rumsfeld and dick cheney in the ford administration in the mid 1970s. look at some of the documents, you'll see how vigorous they pushed this. they felt it was important for iran. you often hear the talking points from opponents, vigorous opponents of iran. why does iran need nuclear power? no one can take seriously the idea they would need nuclear power, they're such an oil-rich nation, right? the united states actually felt that iran needed nuclear power and the basic reason for this -- i don't want to get into too many details about this, but if you have oil it doesn't make sense to build complicated refineries to then use that oil to -- for domestic power purposes. it's kind of a waste of time and money. if you have huge amounts of oil you're much better selling it on the international market, using that money to develop a domestic and much more sustainable nuclear -- much more sustainable energy program that will last for many years after the energy has run out. the u.s. government funded

going to find someone to do this thankless job and he found a congressman from illinois named donald rumsfeld and he took over office of economic opportunity and one of his first hires was a young ambitious congressional intern from wyoming. a guy named cheney so in 1981, the office of economic opportunity was finally abolished altogether so we can give rumsfeld and cheney credit for ending at least one more and that one war was the war on poverty. too soon? but finally just a couple statistics. one is that poverty was reduced from in 1959 poverty was 22 percent area that's dupretty crazy . let me do the math, one in four, one in five and in 1973 it was 11 percent so it was cut in half in the space of 14 years and when you look at a graph of the chart of where poverty was headed, from 1959 to 1973, it's just straight down but since 1973 and the brakes really the effect of putting the brakes on the world poverty took effect, it's dheld steady at about 11 to 15 percent since then though in some ways i think the war on poverty was a success and in other ways of course it wasn't. i'd be happy to

rumsfeld leaves the pentagon and coast to the command center and says don't come back. the president is not a guy who's got a temper but they are arguing about whether or not to go back to washington. they are saying we don't know. there may be some guy with a shoulder launched missile waiting for air force one to come to final approach. the entire day was like that. i'll tell you one quick forcing install. the president is sitting there, andy and i are sitting across from him. we've all been on the phones talking to giuliani, pataki, everybody. we have a quiet moment where we reported on some conversations and the phone rings. i think it was the vice president. the president listens for a few moments and says yes. listen for ten or 15 seconds more, says you have my authorization. another five or ten seconds says yes. another five or ten seconds, says you have authorization, and hangs up. and looks at andy and i and in a voice like you're announcing your grocery list says i have just given authorization for the military to shoot down in the aircraft inventor critical ta

i can only hear one side of the conversation, but i know it's bad when he says is rumsfeld alive? the strike on the pentagon. at that moment, i couldn't look at him. i looked to the side and realized about a foot and a half away from us was a police car. in fact there were four police cars. i hadn't really recognized they were there, that were maybe a foot and a half away from the car. we're going 85 miles-an-hour and these guys are matching us, that close. if you could roll down the window, it was there. and later in the day, i said to eddy, what was that all about because i had never seen it before, never saw it again. he said we were worried about a car bomber and we wanted the car bomb to go off 10 or 15 feet further away from the president giving him a better chance of surviving the blast. my first thought was what the hell was i doing in the backseat of that car? [laughter] >> that was the day. the day was -- we got on the plane. we lift off. when we lifted off, literally the plane began to roll when the door is not even shut. we got on the plane, normally it takes like 10 o

well, in fact, i thought this was one of those instances where rumsfeld had it exactly right. because those people who are in the intelligence business, and i have this from some authorities in the intelligence business, william casey used to distinguish between secrets and mysteries. and in the intelligence business both of these are of interest if they involve something that your enemy or somebody else is going to do. but there's a fundamental difference between secrets and mysteries. secrets have a concrete existence. a secret is how many missile launchers did the soviet union have in 1985. and the cia spent a lot of time, effort and money trying to figure out what the answer to that question was. but it had an answer. but then a mystery is will israel bomb iran? next week? well, that doesn't have an answer, not at this point in time. because it hasn't happened. and likewise, what was aaron burr going to do in the west? that falls in the category of a mystery. i'm quite sure that he himself didn't know. but what took him out to the west? well, briefly i'll tell you his stor
