number 12, the hemingses true believers like professor annette gordon-reed have turned the debate into an obsessive agenda on the color of sally's skin and slave status. annette gordon-reed assessment the madison interview must be taken on face value because white historians had previously ignored its are not facts but racial canards and misinterpretations of the evidence itself. moreover, that is an intellectually dishonest argument. to paraphrase one historian, quote, i'm afraid professor gordon-reed despite her of murder will qualities is the worst thing to happen to thomas jefferson since james calendar. the sleeve historians have taken diversity and created a hostile environment in the academic world in which scholars feel pressured to accept the hemingses left as historical truth. ladies and gentlemen of this jury, justice is supposed to be color blind and meter race more agenda or by yes at anyplace in a court of law or court of public opinion. the only question before this jury is what is the most credible and reasonable and be believable evidence, not jefferson's view on the r

reed was advised of his miranda rights within five minutes of being removed from the aircraft and was reminded of these rights four times within 48 hours. and now is serving a life sentence in federal prison. to my knowledge my republican friends did not criticize the bush administration for handling that case or any of the other cases that we have on file. this applies -- this motion to recommit applies to the high value detainees so that in the toughest cases they want us to play by a completely unreasonable set of rules that will slow us down and make us weaker. that is why the department of defense opposes this. the director of national intelligence opposes this. the department of justice opposes this. i think this morning it's time to say, enough with the games. it's time for us to stop playing politics with our nurelt -- national security. it's time for us to create a system that makes those responsible for our safety play with one hand tied behind their back. let's let our law enforcement professionals do their jobs. above all, let's stop attacking the f.b.i. agents that know w

that includes richard reed, the shoe bomber. that includes mue sueie, the 20th 9 9/11 bomber. republicans applauded that. dick cheney supported it. rudy giuliani said he was in ah of our justice system after he was convicted. so the real system is why the change in attitude because because we had the change of presidents? the reason they were tried was because that was the most efficient effective way to bring people to justice. and in terms of vinsing rights in these prisoners, it was judge mukeski who then became the attorney general under the bush administration who ruled that there were certain rights that even people who are enemy combatants had rights to a lawyer, and various other procedural protections, habeas corpus and so on. so, no, this isn't new. we haven't invested anybody with one more right than they had before we took office and we're not behaving any differently than the last administration did. which raises the question, is this about politics or is it about dealing with the issue at hand? >> speaking of politics. you could make the case that the most intere

so the history of reeding isn't this wonderful sort of paradise we have lost, but rather, a very uneven terrain in which there were lots of ups and downs. so who knows. maybe the -- our ability to do word searches now will open up a new kind of reading. but i share your worry. >> it was great to see you again after i'm not going to say how many years. my question has to do more with how, for example, a great library that you are in control of or working in at harvard, all the libraries, if they in any way relate to libraries in public schools and particularly kids like my grandkids are starting at earlier and earlier ages to be so adept on the internet, twitter and facebook and everything. my granddaughter is a great writer and does read books once in a while, they are actually, as far as i can see, reading less books and i wonder what you would think about that. as generations go back to being younger, whether we do face danger that they will be more -- [inaudible] >> i wish i could offer some higher wisdom on the topic, speaking as a grandfather myself, i -- i also worry about the amo

judd gregg and jack reed are moving along well. we are almost there. the doodd and shelby teams broke down thursday night. that is where both sides are. i feel like there is no reason the we cannot go forward. is a question of whether you want to try to get to no or fly against a yes. that is what i have been standing. if we cannot pass a bipartisan regulation bill, i do not know what we can pass around here. host: you can see the entire interview with senator corker on "newsmaker" tomorrow morning. it is also available right now online, c-span.org. back to the phones. dallas texas, republican. welcome to the show. sorry. hold on. are you there? go ahead caller: republicans cannot stop anything. they did not have the votes. they were inside the democrats. i do not know where these democrats are coming from when they say republicans stopped legislation. if they could not. they did not have the vote until scott brown can along. then all of a sudden obama went to meet with republicans and have open meetings with republicans. it is because of scott brown.

we had an experience as well with oversight of the process at walter reed. you know, there is a lot of question whether that is really the best place to put this additional responsibility and for oversight. >> it was our thought aafter 2005 each of the services took off in their own direction trying to answer this issue and trying to confront this issue in the best way possible. and we aplowed that initiative that each of the services took in sort of taking this forward. i speak for the membership when we say we really would like to see a strategic leadership role taken by the office at the dod. that would help to bring together these incredible efforts that we see now from the leadership of the difference services. the army being one of the many examples that are out there. and especially as the general mentioned as far as the comprehensive prevention strategy that we're talking about, someone really needs to take the lead on that. someone needs to -- to be able to liaison and to partner with the intellects that are out there and the civilian society and ca
