[0:00] You're watching Coin TV channel 6.
[0:33] Good morning. I'm Charles Osgood and
[0:35] this is Sunday morning.
[0:38] The House divided against itself cannot
[0:40] stand, said Abraham Lincoln, our first
[0:42] Republican president. The divisions of
[0:45] his day over slavery and states rights
[0:47] produced a terrible fratcidal war that
[0:49] tore this country apart.
[0:52] The political impass in Washington at
[0:53] the moment is minor compared to that.
[0:56] But other issues do divide America now
[0:58] and divide Lincoln's party, too. Our
[1:01] cover story this morning takes us to
[1:02] Pennsylvania, where Russ Mitchell will
[1:05] measure the Republican tent to see how
[1:06] much division and how much room there is
[1:09] within it.
[1:11] >> The Buchanan brigades are enlisted.
[1:13] >> For 30 years, the Republican party has
[1:15] become more conservative. The question
[1:17] raised by Colon Pal is whether there's
[1:20] room for anybody else in the party's
[1:22] tent. Some Republicans say no. Coming up
[1:25] on Sunday morning, we'll tell you about
[1:27] political doings in Pennsylvania, where
[1:29] the three most powerful politicians are
[1:32] a conservative, a moderate, and a
[1:34] liberal, and they're all Republicans.
[1:38] As for the gulf that appeared between
[1:40] this country's political parties last
[1:42] week, we will talk later on this morning
[1:44] with Bob Schiffer in Washington to ask
[1:45] how soon the federal government may be
[1:47] back in business again. And with Richard
[1:49] Thrill, we will travel south to the
[1:50] Florida Keys and then south again from
[1:53] the surface of the sea to its depths in
[1:55] the company of a scientist who hopes
[1:57] somehow to save the Earth's troubled
[2:00] waters.
