Subscribe to RSSThe Nixon Library has done another document and tape release -- we're putting all the raw materials on the Web. Of special note: a memo from Ben Stein, before we knew him as Ben Stein. Wait til you read what he suggests as possible promotional tools for Richard Nixon. Classic stuff.
I spent last night with my family and 80,000 of our closest friends at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands, witnessing a great rock and roll band. Four guys from Ireland who first played Jersey at the Fast Lane in Asbury Park. They make a sound unlike anything on earth -- like a beautiful, well-tuned jet engine. It was a magnificent evening. It contained a magnificent tribute to Bruce (who was in attendance) and Clarence. We'd give anything to have the Big Man back. Thanks to Bono for remembering him so fondly. And for making such a beautiful sound. Personally: I look forward to hearing human voices again soon, when the ringing in my ears stops. That's the sign of a good night. Last night was a good night.
We hope you can join us tonight.

I have the utmost respect for Diane Sawyer for her loyalty to former President Richard Nixon, a
president I admired and was saddened by his resignation I still believe there is a "plot" to weaken
the presidency.
Good Evening Mr.Williams, Glad to know you and your family had a great time at the U-2 concert last evening at the Meadowlands. Sounds like an awesome night of music along with a tribute to Bruce and Clarence. Very appropriate and nice! Happy you had such a good time!
First of all the report by Anne Thompson and Mr.Tibbles about the intensely dangerous heat wave over the nation showed how this is truly oppressive and doesn't seem to be letting up. Hearing how high the temperatures overnight is incredible along with the early morning. Certainly a tremendous strain on the power for air conditioning to keep cool. All these records being broken for over 100 degrees is too hot and one hopes all these States effected by this high pressure dome of heat can get some relief very soon.
The report from Mr.Kachroo from Africa showed how the situation of famine is extremely dire and aid agencies are stuggling with the demand for food. Seeing the babies crying in the parent's arms was heartbreaking and so many are escaping the war from the areas where they live. Overcrowded refugee camps are in desperate need of food and one hopes so much something can be done to help them. It is tragic militant groups control so much of the area of Somalia and caused so many people to flee. One truly hopes some help comes to all those who have escaped the conflicts in their areas.
The report by Mr.Brokaw about Silicon Valley and how flourishing the business of technology was amazing. The one tech business featured in the report seems to be expanding every day. Enough resources and people to work at the business it will surely keep growing. The two young men running the business have truly made a success of their business venture.
Sad to see the end of an era in the space program with the landing this early morning of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. Thirty years of the space shuttle and many more of manned space missions. It was a wonderful landing, but bittersweet to see the end of all those missions.
Thank You for the broadcast Mr.Williams. Peace to You and to All!
Be Well Everyone!
Stay Extra,Extra Safe and Well Richard! Great report on Cyrene this morning on the Today Show! Excellent!

Take Extra Good Care Richard and Crew!

Brian: Thanks to the team for putting the Nixon documents on line. These manuscripts are a treasure trove of a time when unrest pervaded the country.
Hi Brian
Yes it is very sad to see the end of an era....I can tell that it has been important to you....space travel.
I just wanted to say that after days and days of heat here in Winnipeg....even further north than Bismarck ND, we are having a somewhat cooler day and even some rain forecast for tomorrow. Maybe some cool Canadian air will come your way in the next few days. I saw that it was 104 F in Central Park today.....my step-daughter who lives in Bayonne NJ said that you can tell how hot it is when your cigarette lights itself. They were keeping cool at the local pool and if you can find some relief that is fantastic!
You and your family had a great evening last night at the U2 concert....is your hearing back to normal :)

Moderaters: Are you in cahoots with Fury Pink? It makes me wonder that her comments have
not been deleted. Phyllis Kunz
Oh
Brian's new show...
doomed..
Because the God I serve hates ugly / evil
Phyllis, "reliant", Ridiculous. And what if they are? Your President, Bush, the C imbecile, went into office and gave the Republicans the greatest gift, a toilet with all their money going to the sewer. Market failed, banks failed, houses have no value, America is a joke, the dollar has no value, no jobs..Coincidental? NO DEAR. God put the imbecile in the White House for us to SEE HIM.
Moderators, Why are comments with guttter language not being deleted. You are NOT
doing your job. Phyllis Kunz
Moderators, this is the second day the offensive comments have been displayed and still not
deleted. I don't get it. As far as I am concerned, somebody should be accountable. Whether it is
you or the managing editor. This is ridiculous and I am offended, and I expect it to be resolved.
Obviously she considers me the C Imbecile with former President George W. Bush. Well, I
consider myself in with good company with GWB. So when are you moderators going to ban her?
Very unseemly as Diane Sawyer would say.
NBC's moderators would fit in with the projected Super Congress None Accountable. It's disgusting.

While the cat's away, the mice will play, huh? Or is this a cat and mouse game. Whatever!!!
I am offended and I hope it comes full circle -- but no offense intent. With malice toward some
paraphasing Pres. Lincolen
But no offense meant and I hope none is taken but you are NOT doing your job. Correction:
President Lincoln. PK Meaning Genesis and Rev. coming full circle.
Debt Ceiling postponed until Sunday 1 PM It is said that Sunday is the best day to get together.
One can only hope!
