Central America, thousands have died.
1:24:06
Chile, Indonesia, Africa.
1:24:09
Until now, Americans paid for these wars
every time they did cocaine or crack or heroin
1:24:14
or any other illegal drug smuggled in
by these self-proclaimed patriots.
1:24:20
Now we have a situation where all Americans
will soon pay for these smugglings of drugs
1:24:26
in the form of taxes
to bail out failed savings and loans.
1:24:29
Savings and loans
that misused people's funds
1:24:32
and provided money
to illegal covert drug smuggling operations.
1:24:36
And surprise.
1:24:38
We find ourselves with a seemingly
insurmountable drug problem.

1:24:48
- How do you feel, Bob?
- Great. There's a new day dawning.
1:24:52
What about the release of Alijah Raplin?
1:24:54
It's obvious that the legal system
is too lenient on criminals.
1:24:58
I will see to it that this leniency
ends in our lifetime
1:25:01
and criminals like Raplin get their just due.
1:25:04
- Have you been to Washington before?
- Yes. This time is special.
1:25:07
It's a new town now
because Bob Roberts is here to stay.
1:25:17
[Bugs] Iran-Contra happened because no one
did anything substantial about Watergate.
1:25:22
And Watergate happened because there
were no consequences from the Bay of Pigs.
1:25:26
They're all the same operatives.
1:25:28
The soldiers in the Bay of Pigs,
the plumbers busted at Watergate,
1:25:31
the gun-runners in Iran-Contra,
all the same people.
1:25:34
It's easy to figure out the connection -
1:25:37
a secret government beyond the control
of the people and accountable to no one.
1:25:41
The closer we are to finding the connection,
the more Congress turns a blind eye to it.
1:25:46
"We can't talk about that in open session,"
they say. "National security. "
1:25:50
The truth lies dormant and they stay blind
out of choice. A conspiracy of silence.
1:25:55
I think the entire Congress is quite aware
of the National Security Council
