Late Show Wednesday Impressions #318 - Depression
Bill Lehecka
Good evening. I know it seems trivial of me to talk about my own problems
when other parts of the country, especially in NYC, are suffering more than
I can even imagine, but lately, I've been very depressed. I've just been
just down in the dumps. I'm hoping to get out of that funk soon.
I'm late, so let's move. On to Impressions:
-Cold Open... And my power goes out... Unbelievable....
-OK, it's about 2 hours later. Let's continue...
-Cold Open: Marquee then Dave.
-Last night, Dave had a lot of nervous energy, and he spent time cleaning
out his pantry. All of these products had cautionary labels. He has some of
those products today. Notice they aren't calling this bit "Warning Labels?"
Dave did say Warning Labels with Paul's glasses, but the bit is now called
consumer labels. Interesting, huh?
-Why are frozen items in Dave's pantry? Has the Joker been screwin' around
in those green beans? Ahhh, I could use some Colt 45's right now. Gatorade
is good, but it's censored right now. But using my telepathic sense, I know
that it's Alligator Urine. Mmm... green urine... I've never taken NyQuil.
Dave's telling us his best bit, about replacing liquids with non-alcoholic
ones. I don't get that. Watch out for umms! How old is that Batteries Not
Included joke? Did McIntee type 70 instead of 7? Man oh man, do I LOVE the
Miracle Whip... It's not lard, it's soy... I've eaten Miracle Whip plain
before. It's rather tasty. I wish we had some Krispy Kreme doughnuts around
here...
-Dave's got some more test jokes to get the feeling of the audience. The
Dick Clark joke fell a little flat. Cab drivers slowing down???
-Top Ten: Least Popular Theme Restaurants. Top Ten Graphic: Numbers in
columns coming together. Are we cleaning out the closet on Top Tens. I know
we're trying to stay away from controversial, but the last two have been
goofy. I welcome goofy. Achoo! I'd go to a Cap'n Filthy's. Old pizza ages
well. Haven't I heard #1 before?
-First Guest, Matthew Broderick: Who cares about sips? Broadway went back to
work pretty soon. I buy lots of things. Matthew's trying, but he can't think
of anything he can do to help. Lots of people feel tend to feel helpless
during these times. Matthew's been down to the site. He did hand out some
food. He doesn't like to paint himself as a do-gooder. It's not like he's
announcing that he's giving $1 million to the Red Cross. That would be self
serving. Look, an actual shirt from "The Producers!" Older people go to the
matinee. The night people are drunker. I laugh at different parts of EVERY
SHOW.
-Second Segment: Nathan's on vacation this week. He's in Tribeca, and had to
be evacuated to a "luxury hotel." What a life... Regis in a Broadway show?
That might be scary. Lots of Broadway shows are closing right now. It's
pretty sad. Broadway will be doing a benefit show for the firefighters,
etc. Matthew's been married for 5 years. He's known her for 10 years. The
marriage is very fulfilling. On vacation, I like to relax. On rare
occasions,I like to be active. Sarah likes the big game.
-Second Guest, John Miller: He's the last guy to conduct a major interview
with Osama bin Laden. John used to work with NBC. He sues to work for the
NYPD under Bill Bratton. He didn't know who he was back then. It was an
arduous process to get to bin Laden. These guys have a weird way to give
television production values. Did you hear that Saddam Hussein was willing
to give the US "humanitarian" support? Crazy, huh? Bin Laden is educated,
and knows what he's doing. You know what I find interesting... If he did
this so he could hit it big in the stock market... He would just be a
common thief. How screwed up is that? You can't kill bin Laden. You gotta
do SOMETHING about him, though. Bin Laden wants to divide us. So what does
he do? An action so violent, it just brings us together. Yeah, that's
smart.
-Third Guests, Odetta and the Boys Choir or Harlem: She's singing We Shall
Overcome. You bet your ass we'll overcome. Pretty moving. The boys know
how to groove. Remember the commercial for a watch that used the line "This
little light of mine?" That was eons ago. Odetta's groovin' too.
-And we're out. Walter Cronkite's on the next show.
The transition is moving along nicely, as America's almost ready to laugh
again. It'll happen soon, trust me. Another good show in light of the
events. But c'mon... editing out Gator Urine? *sigh*
Short column. I'm sure you people don't mind. Later!

Thanks for putting out while you're not feeling well, Bill.
I thought Wednesday's show was excellent from top to bottom. As you say, the
transition is moving along nicely, and I enjoyed the tentative jokes, the
pantry items (a few of which made me laugh out loud), and Broderick's
interview. John Miller was altogether serious, informative, and somewhat
frightening.

Haven't I heard #1 before?
Didn't we have that entire TTL before?? Many of them rang a familiar bell to
me. Donz?
> -Third Guests, Odetta and the Boys Choir or Harlem:
Rocking and inspirational. Great to see her again.

Gosh,Bill-you hit it right on target. This kind of unity is incredible.

Vaguely. I just remember the song from when I was a counselor at a children's
Bible camp. Of course,we didn't sing it in the same vein as Odetta and the Boys
Choir. Too bad.
>-And we're out. Walter Cronkite's on the next show.
84 years old-did I hear correctly?

Yeah -- there are a lot of, um, retreads lately. Wasn't there a quote by Rob
that someone posted a few days ago, where he said that it would be impossible
for writers to come up with the sort of nightly hilarity to which we've grown
accustomed?
There's been a pretty rough rhythm to the first segments this week. Tonight,
Dave read some jokes, then, ok, next, the Top Ten. The segues seem uneven.
Perhaps it's the absence of the show open, and thus the absence of any sort of
anticipatory tension and welcome release.
Jmslsu01
>of
>anticipatory tension and welcome release.
LN has its opening-Joel is subdued and it works quite well. The band has the
same energy. Conan just walks out-doesn't dance around,of course-and it's
fine.
I like having Joel back-going back to work means going back to work. Alan's not
doing his work. He can announce-not in the same vein-but he can work.

I hope that it's not personal reasons keeping Alan from announcing,and that
it's just everyone's decision not to have the intro.

I think everyone is feeling a bit down in the dumps recently. With
everything going on it's hard not to be depressed at times.

I messed up when I programed my VCR and missed about half of Dave's
show. I got the first 10 minutes and the last 15 to 20 minutes. :( So,
your LS impressions are a life saver to me today! :)

I turned my VCR back on during this segment but missed the beginning of
it. Could someone post a transcript or tell me where I might find a
transcript of this interview? I'd be most grateful!

You and the majority of America. Hell, I've been really depressed myself
lately. Life just hasn't been the same since all of this chaos happened. It's
hard to believe it's only been ten days.
>I'm hoping to get out of that funk soon.
Same here.

Cool, one of my fav. Dave said he didn't know why green beans were in his
pantry, but what about the Steakumms?

Good guest.

Yikes, well he's lucky to be alive! Especially after trying to crack a joke
about his driveway or whatever. Jeeze, this whole segment gave me the chills.
>-Third Guests, Odetta and the Boys Choir or Harlem: She's singing We Shall
>Overcome.
Very encouraging to hear and very nicely done as well.

LN has its opening-Joel is subdued and it works quite well. The
band has the
same energy. Conan just walks out-doesn't dance around,of
course-and it's
fine.
I like having Joel back-going back to work means going back to
work. Alan's not
doing his work. He can announce-not in the same vein-but he can
work.
Based on Dave's attitude last night - he was pretty chipper the whole
first segement, it feels like we'll be back to the old order of events
next week. Watching the cold opening last night, I wondered how he
was going to transition into the Cronkite segment, but being Dave, he
managed.
As for Ferrell and Jewel, I was mercifully asleep for most of their
time. Ferrell did a better job than usual, making me unconscious
within 30 seconds of his entrance.
I woke up in time to see Jewel sitting in the guest chair, and was
glad to see that she was wearing something sober in keeping with the
city's mood.

don't remember Dave doing a lot of political humor, just 2 or 3 offbeat
momologue jokes followed by a seemingly ad libbed conversation with paul and a
comedy bit: a phone call to a stranger, a remote somewhere in the city or
hallways of Rockefeller Center or a written piece.

Here you go -
Note - this captioning service doesn't always
attribute name on change of speaker, but I think one
can figure it out)
(presumably >>Dave: )
It's always a pleasure and an
honor to have you guys with me,
but especially this week.
It's just been terrific to have
you here.
( Applause )
>> paul: God bless america.
>> Dave: Our next guest is an
abc news correspondent and the
last journalist to conduct a
major interview with osama bin
laden.
Here is john miller, everybody.
( Applause )
( band playing )
thank you very much for being
here.
I know you're quite busy and i
appreciate your time.
The last time I saw you, the
last time we knew each other, we
worked at nbc.
Is that right?
>> That's right.
We were across the hall.
>> Dave: And then what happened
to you?
I know what happened to me,
but...
( Laughter )
you went and you did something
else for a while, right?
>> I went with the new york
police department as deputy
commissioner under bill bratton.
And then found my way out of
there and ended up at abc.
>> Dave: Right.
Having worked with the
department, you must just be in
awe... Or I guess you knew this
about them when you were there.
Fantastic organization.
>> I am in awe.
And at the same time, I'm very
upset because so many of the
people who are missing were
friends of mine then, friends of
mine before, and you know, your
heart really goes out for them.
>> Dave: Right.
And it seems being here in the
city, with all of this around
us... Geez, I don't know, is
it... Are we-- i'm asking a
silly question-- are we feeling
any better day to day, or are we
sort of now, day to day,
realizing what we have on our
hands?
>> Well, i'm sure everybody's
going through the normal stages
of, you know, shock and then
denial.
And I think now-- especially
right now as we've gone from a
week of crisis into a week of
the beginning of memorial
services and funerals-- people
are coming to terms with the
reality of it.
>> Dave: Yeah.
Let's talk about osama bin
laden.
You interviewed him in 1998.
This is when you were working at
abc news, where you are now,
doing a series on terrorism.
Is that the context of this
interview?
>> I had just gotten to abc, and
really, going from a local news
background where, you know, you
were focused on john gotti...
>> Dave: You spend a lot of time
working on the john gotti saga.
>> You wanted to see, well, who
was the biggest gangster in the
world?
>> Dave: Right.
>> And came to learn that a
secret new york grand jury was
probing osama bin laden for
allegedly financing the bombing
of the world trade center and
organizing the people who shot
down the u.S. Helicopters and
servicemen in somalia, and
attempting to pull off a plot to
kill president clinton in the
philippines, and on... It went
on and on.
And I remembered it occurring to
me, I've never really heard of
this guy, osama bin laden.
So if he's behind all of this,
then he must be somebody that we
need to take a look at.
>> Dave: How do you go about
taking a look at him?
Along with you?
It's not like you see this
guy... He's not?
>> I think looking back i knew
things he didn't know.
I knew there was going to be an
indictment in new york that his
name was about to emerge in
america.
I think he was interested in
talking because a pattern has
emerged about bin laden coming
out before a major attack
attributed to him.
It used to be that there would
be a bombing, a terrorist group
would claim responsibility for
it, and that's how they put
their stamp on it.
I think he wanted to introduce
himself to the american public
in a broad sense at that time--
to get his issues on the table.
Because we had no way of knowing
at that time that six weeks
after the interview, there would
be the simultaneous bombings of
two U.S. Embassies that his
group allegedly committed on his
orders, and I think he wanted to
get out front ahead of that.
>> Dave: Right.
So that pattern continued
through the interview process
and afterwards.
And you saw him... At a camp?
At his camp?
>> We had to go from pakistan
to... Sneak over the border into
afghanistan.
We were held in one camp-- and i
say "held," I mean we were kept
in a hut and they said, "please
don't come outside if you don't
have to"-- for days.
And then finally at 9:30 one
night, we were taken on a three-
hour drive over the mountains to
yet another camp, a mountaintop
camp, and at midnight, they
brought him up the hill, shot
their guns in the air and we
went into a small... Kind of a
cross between a hut and a tent,
and sat down for an hour.
>> Dave: Now, when you say
"camp," it's a... Terrorist
training camp.
Is that what it is?
A facility?
How many people are there
training with him?
>> Certainly more than 100 that
we saw that night on the
mountaintop.
But in the three different
camps, they're training people
for terrorist missions, they're
training fighters to go into
kashmir, they're training people
to help the taliban fight the
northern alliance in one corner
of the country.
It's a busy place.
>> Dave: And were you under the
impression that what you were
allowed to witness was put on
display just for your eyes?
They were putting on a show for
you?
Or did you get the sense that
this was business every day.
>> Well, yes and no.
It was interesting because in
dealing with ayman zawahiri, his
kind of political and operations
chief, and muhammad atif, his
military chief, you know, I said
in terms of the story, i said,
"we'll need some shots of him
around the camp to explain who
he is, what he's about.
Maybe some shots of him with the
men, and, you know, maybe a shot
of me and him walking and
talking, so I can set up the bin
laden story."
Just a tv production thing.
And I remember him saying, you
know, "this is not like your
friend sam donaldson walking
through the rose garden with the
president."
>> Dave: Right.
>> "You don't do that here.
Mr. Bin laden is a very
important man, and you'll sit
down with him."
I think their compromise-- it
shows their media savvy-- was to
create this big entrance where
he would arrive and everybody
would shoot their guns into the
air for five minutes, and send
missiles up.
I think that was their idea of
what we were looking for.
>> Dave: So then you get to sit
down with the guy, and the only
thing I know about him now is
he's tall, like 6'4".
>> Surprisingly tall.
>> Dave: So, were you
frightened?
Were you worried, first of all?
Did you think, "what, if i screw
this up, i'm not going home."
Did that cross your mind?
>> Well, i mean, i'm usually
pretty lighthearted about
everything, if i can be, just to
keep the mood light.
And I remember saying to the
translator, "for a man whose
family has made their fortune in
construction, he could use a
better driveway coming up here."
>> Dave: Oh, that's good.
Open with a joke.
That's smart, john.
( Laughter and applause )
jimny.
God.
A little icebreaker: Make fun of
his house.
( Laughter )
>> that's where I was going, and
the translator translated
something back, and came back
with something like, "moving
right along," and then i knew...
( Laughter )
I knew this was going to be all
straight.
>> Dave: Yeah.
Right, right.
And again, i guess the question
that... One of the many
questions that people are trying
to determine is, what motivates
this man?
It's not exactly religious.
It's got to be a hatred for us.
Is it only the united states?
He sort of cut his teeth in
afghanistan fighting the
russians.
Isn't that where he sort of made
his mark?
>> He did.
And we were on the same side, in
effect.
>> Dave: Is that right?
>> You know, we were supporting
an intelligence operation to
move the russians out.
He was supporting a military
operation, and you know, my
enemy's enemy is my friend.
>> Dave: And is it all about
other people treading on
religious ground?
Sacred ground for him and islam?
>> It's three things for bin
laden.
And his principle issues are,
probably in order: The u.S.
Military presence in saudi
arabia, he considers a
desecration of holy land,
especially because it bleeds
into his second issue, which is,
he believes it's there to
support the defense of israel.
His second issue is the plight
of the palestinians, the israeli
position on that and the
american backing behind it.
And his third issue is-- not
just what at the time when we
did the interview, but now and
sporadically-- the bombing of
iraq and iraqi defensive
positions, but the embargoes and
the things that he said, no
matter what you think about
saddam hussein, caused innocent
women and children to suffer.
This was the universe of his top
grievances, and still is.
>> Dave: And he's rking... He
will say that people are not
working for him, that he and
everyone else is working for
allah.
>> That's right.
>> Dave: And they are defending
islam against infidels around
the world.
>> And he's always been very
careful not to say "I, i, me,
me."
That, "i ordered this attack,"
or take credit or responsibility
for it.
He's always said, you know,
"that sometimes we put out the
call.
It is the brothers and the youth
that rise up, and we all work
for allah."
>> Dave: And if you would ask
him about killings and bombings
and terrorist activities, he
would then respond to you, "yes,
but what about the time that the
united states did a, b, and C."
>> He does.
He's articulate, he's logical
and very intelligent that way.
>> Dave: To that end, does he
have a point at all, or is it
somehow so blurred that it's not
really logical?
>> Well, we tend to look at all
of these things through our own
prisms, either as israelis or
americans or palestinians or
arabs.
And I mean, if you break it
down, this is a universe where
everybody has a point.
He said specifically on one
occasion during our talk, "how
can you defend israel, a country
that bombs a palestinian
hospital with innocents in it?"
And of course, you know, it was
an incident that was said to be
a mistake, an accident.
And I said, "well, how can you
target civilians and innocents?"
And he said, "coming from the
government that brought us
hiroshima and nagasaki."
You know, so he is a debater on
these points.
>> Dave: How is he viewed by
mainstream muslims?
>> I think that when you're
talking about extremists, in any
religion or nationality, they're
always the smaller portion and
they're certainly not the
sentiment of the mainstream.
I mean, I talk to people in the
city, islamic people, muslims
that i know who hate bin laden.
There are people in afghanistan,
anecdotally that we've heard,
you know, through the people who
have been able to write articles
in afghanistan who say, "half of
our trouble, our plight is
because of this man's presence
here."
He's certainly not a mainstream
thinker.
However, there is a growing
militancy in that part of the
world among people because of
the escalating trouble between
israel and the palestinians,
that for a lot of people who are
on the borderline of militancy,
he's got a following that's only
getting larger in some ways.
>> Dave: Could... If somebody
were a theologian, could they
show him-- and maybe they exist,
maybe they don't exist, I don't
know-- inconsistencies between
what he believes and how those
beliefs manifest themselves, and
precepts of the koran?
>> Absolutely.
But you can do the same thing
with extremists on the christian
right and the bible.
The bible and the koran, just
like a book of law.
You can find one section that
says this is permissible and
another that says it's not.
The same book that says that
they should be a people of peace
and understanding.
When i asked bin laden, "you
bombed the two u.S. Embassies,
you killed 225 people-- most of
them not american, most of them
african, many of the muslim--
how do you defend that?"
He said, "according to allah and
his law, as a muslim, your
destiny is set.
And so if innocents are killed
in jihad, that was their destiny
as set by allah, and this is
permissible under islam."
Now, that sounds ridiculous, but
if you take a strict
interpretation in a very
conservative way, I suppose you
could find a page that says
that.
But it's certainly not what 99%
of people of that religion would
accept or believe, though.
>> Dave: Yeah.
But his view, you say, seems to
be increasing in popularity?
>> I wouldn't say that his view
is increasing in popularity in
the world of islam.
I would say that the number of
people who are becoming
followers or joining his
organization, has been on a
steady rise as tensions between
muslims and others in that
region have grown.
The fact that many, many more
people in pakistan-- after the
embassy bombings and our
counterattack on his camps--
were naming their children
osama, in refugee camps and in
other places, was a sign that he
has some level of acceptance
among, you know, their radical
end.
>> Dave: What are we going to do
about this guy?
Is there anything we can do?
Anything effective, anything
that will make a difference?
Or is it one of those deals
where if he's taken out, it
doesn't really make much
difference because that only
fuels the fervor, whatever it is
he's created?
Is that how this works?
Do we have a plan that'll work?
>> Well, they're certainly
making a plan, and i think that
the idea of, you know, you want
to hit him, but you don't want
to hit him too hard because
you'll make him a martyr, you'll
cause an even worse, more
vicious response.
I mean, if you look at it in the
context of a homicide with 5,000
potential victims-- the worst
mass murder in u.S. History and
possibly world history-- i think
that the idea that they could do
anything worse from a group like
that, or that a terrorist
organization could hit us any
harder is something that's been
put on the side now.
This is the kind of thing where
if you talk to the people that
i'm talking to in washington and
in the government everyday,
they're making a broad plan to
go after him and his
organization, and other
terrorist groups simultaneously
on so many fronts.
This will be something that
we've never seen before in this
country.
>> Dave: The interview which i
watched this afternoon, at one
point he expresses the phrase,
something to the effect that
"one day, there will be no more
united states."
Is that the ongoing project?
Is that what, really, he's
concentrating on and leading
these people and running these
camps?
Is that the goal?
>> His goal is... His stated
goal-- at least he said it to
me-- was to end the united
states as we know it.
>> Dave: Right.
>> That it would be not a united
states, but separate states that
would have their own interests
at heart, and not the interests
of the israelis or their
political...
>> Dave: Other than militarily,
would there be a way to approach
this problem?
A different way to attack it,
to-- this is going to sound
silly, here-- any reason that
can be invoked, anything else
that can happen?
>> There's a long-term plan that
i think america was much more
likely to subscribe to as a
government before, of trying to
exert sanctions, economic
sanctions, political pressure on
the taliban to the point that it
would become impractical to keep
him.
That he would be squeezed out of
afghanistan into a place where
the U.S. Would be able to get
him and bring him to trial.
I think that the thinking of
dealing with osama bin laden in
the government, as a criminal
matter, has now been pushed to
the side, and they are looking
on him much more as a military
matter, in the context that they
keep saying, "an act of war, an
act of war."
>> Dave: Yeah, i know.
But everybody also says "yes,
but how and when, and how long."
I'm just thinking, is there
another approach that would make
sense to him for us.
I don't know.
I don't know what that is.
>> I think that our history in
going after people in
countries-- individual people--
if you look at going after
noriega in panama, that didn't
go as smoothly as the government
hoped for.
And remember what that was.
They were backing up a dea agent
who was going to arrest him on a
drug charge.
Our history of going after aidid
in somalia, the warlord, we
never did find him.
We raided many places, our
helicopters were shot down, the
bodies of servicemen were
dragged through the streets to
the point that america had to
pull out of there militarily
because public opinion was
becoming too hot in the other
direction.
>> Dave: None of this sounds
encouraging to me.
>> The irony was that the people
who were shooting down those
helicopters in somalia are now
viewed as bin laden trained and
armed.
>> Dave: Have you heard from him
since '98 when you did this?
Did you get a card or anything?
( Laughter )
>> after the u.S. Counterstrike
on his bases, we got a phone
call at abc news from ayman
zawahiri-- who was his key aide
and still is-- who said, "I have
a message from mr. Bin laden."
And of course we said, "put mr.
Bin laden on the phone."
And they said, "he is okay and
he is nearby, and the message is
this: Tell america the war has
just begun."
>> Dave: Oh, my god.
Oh, my god.
Well, this is all very chilling.
And do you fear for your role in
all of this now?
Do you... I'm guessing he's not
worried about you at this point?
>> No, i don't think i'm much of
an issue.
I think he's got a lot bigger
things to worry about.
>> Dave: That's fascinating.
Thank you very much for your
time.
>> Thank you.
>> Dave: Nice to see you again.
John miller, everybody.
We'll be right back with odetta
and the boys' choir of harlem.
