and now from cbs news in washington, bob schieffer. >> schieffer: and good morning again. david axelrod is in buchanan michigan this morning. mr. axelrod, welcome to the broadcast. >> thank you, bob. >> schieffer: for the first time in the long, proud history of america, u.s. securities are no longer considered the safest place to invest your money. i just want to ask you, what is the impact of that statement going to be on people who are turning on this broadcast this morning? >> first of all, let's see how the markets react because i think there's a broad consensus that this is still the safest place to put your money. you know, we can debate the strength of the analysis that they did, the history of s&p and so on. they made an egregious analytical error here but theirs was largely a political analysis. that's what we should focus on because what they were saying is they want to see the political system work. they want to see a sense of compromise. they want to see the kind of solution that the president has been fighting for, a large solution that will team with the pro

he had something he wanted to tell bob schieffer, and that story is next. ,,,, >> pelley: former vice president dick cheney takes aim at some of his colleagues in the george w. bush administration in a new book coming out tomorrow. he's critical of former secretary of state colin powell. on sunday's "face the nation" powell responded, objecting in particular to the words cheney is using in promoting the book. >> what really sort of got my attention was this way in which he characterized it. "it going to cause heads to explode." that's quite a visual. and in fact, it's the kind of headline i would expect to come out of a gossip columnist or the kind of headline you might see one of the supermarket tabloids write. it's not the kind of headline i would have expected to come from a former vice president of the united states of america. >> pelley: joining us now is bob schieffer, the anchor of "face the nation." and bob, for the nation's former first diplomat, second powell seemed to be visibly angry in this interview. >> schieffer: you know, scott, he had steam coming out of his ears. he
