[7:16] PENTAGON.

[7:18] >>> THERE IS MORE DIPLOMATIC

[7:19] PRESSURE TO END THE NORTH KOREA

[7:21] MISSILE CRISIS.

[7:22] IN THE WAKE OF LAST WEEK'S SEVEN

[7:24] TEST FIRINGS, THE U.S. SAYS IT

[7:26] WON'T TALK DIRECTLY WITH NORTH

[7:27] KOREA.

[7:28] CHINA HAS BEEN ASKED TO PRESS

[7:30] THE NORTH KOREANS TO STOP

[7:31] TESTING AND RETURN TO

[7:33] DISARMAMENT AMOUNT TALKS.

[7:36] >>> A PAKISTANI AIRLINER ON A

[7:39] DOMESTIC FLIGHT CRASHED THIS

[7:40] MORNING.

[7:41] THE TWIN ENGINE PLANE WENT DOWN

[7:42] JUST AFTER TAKEOFF.

[7:44] 45 PEOPLE WERE ON BOARD.

[7:45] POLICE SAY THERE WERE NO

[7:47] SURVIVORS.

[7:48] >>> FAILED BRAKES MAY HAVE

[7:49] CAUSED A DEADLY AIRLINE CRASH IN

[7:51] RUSSIA.

[7:51] AT LEAST 122 PEOPLE DIED WHEN AN

[7:54] AIR BUS JET LINER CAREENED OFF A

[7:56] RAIN SLICK RUNWAY ON LANDING IN

[7:59] THE SIBERIAN CITY OF URKUSK.

[8:05] THE PLANE BURST INTO FLAMES.

[8:07] >>> IN FLORIDA, JURY SELECTION

[8:09] BEGINS TODAY IN THE TRIAL OF THE

[8:10] MAN ACCUSED OF MURDERING JESSICA

[8:13] LUNSFORD.

[8:14] AT FIRST IT SEEMED LIKE AN OPEN

[8:15] AND SHUT CASE, BUT NOW

[8:17] PROSECUTORS CANNOT USE A KEY

[8:18] PIECE OF EVIDENCE.

[8:19] MARK STRASSMANN REPORTS.

[8:21] >> WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY TO

[8:23] THE FAMILY OF JESSICA LUNSFORD?

[8:25] >> Reporter: JOHN COUEY SEEMED A

[8:27] LOCK FOR A CELL ON FLORIDA'S

[8:29] DEATH ROW.

[8:30] THE CRIME WAS TRULY HEINOUS,

[8:32] JESSICA LUNSFORD'S KIDNAP, RAPE,

[8:34] AND MURDER.

[8:35] SHE WAS A THIRD GRADER AND

[8:37] COUEY'S NEIGHBOR.

[8:38] >> I'VE GOT MY MAN.

[8:38] >> Reporter: COUEY, A CONVICTED

[8:40] SEX OFFENDER, HAD CONFESSED TO

[8:42] ALL OF IT, EVEN TOLD

[8:44] INVESTIGATORS WHERE TO FIND HER

[8:45] BODY, BURIED RIGHT OUTSIDE HIS

[8:47] MOBILE HOME.

[8:48] >> WENT OUT THERE ONE NIGHT AND

[8:50] DUG A HOLE AND PUT HER IN IT.

[8:53] PUT A PLASTIC BAG.

[8:54] >> WAS SHE DEAD ALREADY?

[8:55] >> NO.

[8:56] SHE WAS STILL ALIVE.

[8:57] I BURIED HER ALIVE.

[8:59] SO SHE SUFFERED.

[9:00] >> Reporter: BUT JUST LAST WEEK,

[9:03] THE JUDGE THREW OUT COUEY'S

[9:06] TAPED CONFESSION.

[9:10] POLICE HAD IGNORED COUEY'S

[9:12] REPEATED REQUESTS FOR A LAWYER.

[9:12] SO INVESTIGATORS WILL HAVE TO

[9:14] MAKE THEIR CASE WITHOUT IT.

[9:15] INSTEAD, THEY'LL RELY ON FINDING

[9:17] JESSICA'S BODY OUTSIDE COUEY'S

[9:19] HOME AND HER DNA ON A BLOODY

[9:21] MATTRESS INSIDE HIS HOME.

[9:22] >> YOU WILL NOW SEE THE EVIDENCE

[9:24] THAT THIS AGENCY HAS COMPILED TO

[9:26] CONVICT JOHN COUEY AND PUT HIM

[9:28] TO DEATH.

[9:28] >> Reporter: AS JURY SELECTION

[9:30] BEGINS LATER TODAY, PROSECUTORS

[9:32] BELIEVE THEIR CASE HAS WHAT IT

[9:33] TAKES TO GIVE COUEY THE DEATH

[9:35] PENALTY EVEN IF THEY CAN'T USE

[9:36] THE MOST CHILLING EVIDENCE OF

[9:38] ALL, THE TAPE WHERE COUEY

[9:39] POINTED THE FINGER AT HIMSELF.

[9:42] MARK STRASSMANN, CBS NEWS,

[9:44] ATLANTA.

[9:45] >>> PRESIDENT BUSH PROMISED THAT

[9:47] PATROLS ALONG THE WIDE OPEN

[9:49] U.S.-MEXICO BORDER WOULD BE

[9:50] BEEFED UP WITH THE NATIONAL

[9:52] GUARD TROOPS.

[9:53] BUT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME SNAGS

[10:01] WEST VIRGINIA'S NATIONAL GUARD

[10:05] THEY'RE NOT LEAVING FOR IRAQ,

[10:08] THEY'RE HEADING TO THE

[10:09] U.S.-MEXICO BORDER.

[10:10] >> UP TO 6,000 GUARD MEMBERS

[10:12] WILL BE DEPLOYED TO OUR SOUTHERN

[10:15] >> Reporter: BUT "OPERATION JUMP

[10:17] START" TO STRENGTHEN THE BORDER

[10:19] PATROL WITH NATIONAL GUARD

[10:20] TROOPS SEEMS TO HAVE STALLED.

[10:21] THERE ARE LESS THAN 900 GUARDS

[10:23] ACTUALLY ON THE BORDER RIGHT

[10:24] NOW.

[10:25] MANY BELIEVE DEEMPLOYING AN

[10:27] ADDITIONAL 5,000 TROOPS WITHIN

[10:28] THE NEXT THREE WEEKS IS

[10:29] UNLIKELY.

[10:30] THAT'S IN PART BECAUSE THE

[10:32] FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS RELYING ON

[10:33] THE STATE TO FIND VOLUNTEERS.

[10:38] >> MANY OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE

[10:39] SPENT A TOUR IN AFGHANISTAN,

[10:41] PERHAPS ANOTHER TOUR IN IRAQ.

[10:43] IT'S ASKING QUITE A THE LOT OF

[10:45] CITIZEN SOLDIERS FOR BEING

[10:56] AFTER HURRICANE SEASON.

[10:58] NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY ARE

[10:59] OFFERING TO SEND GUARDS BUT ONLY

[11:01] FOR A FEW WEEKS, AND THAT'S NOT

[11:03] ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE A BIG

[11:04] IMPACT.

[11:05] >> I THINK IT'S HARD FOR PEOPLE

[11:08] TO DO THEIR BEST AND REALLY MAKE

[11:10] A BIG DIFFERENCE WHEN THEY'RE

[11:11] JUST GETTING THERE

[26:09] #sés■sD8

[27:15] >>> RELIGION DOES PLAY A ROLE IN

[27:16] AMERICAN POLITICS, AND THAT'S

[27:17] BEEN ESPECIALLY TRUE WITH THE

[27:18] INFLUENCE OF CONSERVATIVE

[27:20] CHRISTIANS.

[27:21] WELL, NOW ANOTHER GROUP WANTS

[27:23] ITS VOICE HEARD.

[27:24] RUSS MITCHELL REPORTS.

[27:26] >> Reporter: AT THIS CHURCH IN

[27:28] WASHINGTON D.C., HUNDREDS OF

[27:29] COMMITTED CHRISTIANS MET

[27:31] RECENTLY TO TRY TO MAP OUT A

[27:32] STRATEGY TO GET THEIR VALUES

[27:33] INTO THE POLITICAL DEBATE.

[27:35] NOT THE CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN

[27:37] VALUES WHICH HAVE BEEN SO

[27:39] INFLUENTIAL LATELY.

[27:41] THIS IS THE RELIGIOUS LEFT.

[27:44] >> JESUS CALLED US TO LOVE OUR

[27:46] NEIGHBOR, LOVE OUR ENEMY, CARE

[27:47] FOR THE POOR, CARE FOR THE

[27:51] OUTCAST, AND THAT'S REALLY THE

[27:53] MORAL CORE OF WHERE WE THINK THE

[28:07] PROTESTANTS.

[28:08] >> JESUS NEVER SAID ONE WORD

[28:10] ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY.

[28:13] NEVER SAID ONE WORD ABOUT CIVIL

[28:14] MARRIAGE OR ABORTION.

[28:15] >> Reporter: HE CALLS THIS

[28:17] MOVEMENT THE CENTER LEFT, AND

[28:18] IT'S SEEKING THE SAME POLITICAL

[28:20] MUSCLE AS CONSERVATIVE

[28:22] CHRISTIANS, A GROUP WITH A

[28:23] STRONG POWER BASE IN THE HUGE

[28:27] EVANGELICAL CHURCHES IN THE

[28:27] SOUTH.

[28:30] IT EVEN HAS ITS OWN LEADERS LIKE

[28:32] THE REVEREND TONY KAMPOLO.

[28:35] >> WE'RE FURIOUS THE RELIGIOUS

[28:37] RIGHT HAS MADE JESUS INTO A

[28:39] REPUBLICAN.

[28:40] TO RECREATE JESUS IN OUR OWN

[28:42] IMAGE RATHER THAN ALLOWING

[28:44] YOURSELF TO BE CREATED IN JESUS'

[28:47] IMAGE IS WHAT'S WRONG WITH

[28:48] POLITICS.

[28:48] >> Reporter: THE CHRISTIAN LEFT

[28:49] IS FOCUSING ON FIGHTING POVERTY,

[28:52] PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT, AND

[28:54] FIGHTING THE WAR IN IRAQ.

[28:56] THREE YEARS AGO, RELIGIOUS

[28:57] LEADERS HAD A POWERFUL INFLUENCE

[28:59] ON POLITICS.

[29:01] IN THE 1960s AND '70s, THEY LED

[29:06] DEMONSTRATIONS AGAINST CIVIL

[29:07] RIGHTS ABUSES AND THE WAR IN

[29:09] VIETNAM.

[29:09] BUT WHEN THOSE BATTLES WERE OVER

[29:11] THE MOVEMENT SEEMED TO LOSE

[29:12] ENERGY.

[29:13] WHILE CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES

[29:14] HAD BECOME WELL ORGANIZED AND

[29:15] COMMITTED TO HAVING THEIR VOICES

[29:17] AND CONCERNS HEARD.

[29:18] AFTER YEARS OF SITTING ON THE

[29:20] SIDELINES, IT WILL TAKE MORE

[29:21] THAN MEETINGS AND TALKING POINTS

[29:23] TO MAKE THE LIBERALS INTO A

[29:25] POLITICAL POWER AGAIN.

[29:26] >> THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT HAS A

[29:28] GROUND GAME.

[29:29] THUS FAR, THE CHRISTIAN LEFT

[29:31] MAINLY HAS AN AIR GAME.

[29:32] THEY WANT TO THROW POSITIONS.

[29:35] THEY WANT TO TALK TO THE MEDIA.

[29:37] BUT DO THEY HAVE THE NETWORKS IN

[29:40] PLACE ON THE GROUND TO GET

[29:41] PEOPLE OUT TO VOTE?

[29:43] >> Reporter: SO IT REMAINS TO BE

[29:45] SEEN WHETHER THERE'S ANY ACTION

[29:47] BEHIND THE WORDS.

[29:48] BUT THERE'S NO DOUBT THEY'RE ON

[29:49] A MISSION.

[29:50] >> I'VE WATCHED A GENERATION DIE

[29:51] AND I WATCHED THEM SHIFT FROM

[29:54] IDEALISM TO A ME GENERATION THAT

[30:00] WAS ONLY ORIENTED TOWARDS

[30:02] CONSUMERISM, AND IT HURT.

[30:03] AND I WONDERED WHETHER WE EVER

[30:05] WOULD COME BACK.

[30:06] BUT THE PENDULUM IS SWINGING.

[30:08] >> AND THE LEFT HOPES TO COURT

[30:10] POLITICIANS JUST LIKE THE

[30:11] CHRISTIAN RIGHT.

[30:12] >>> AND THAT IS THE CBS MORNING

[30:13] NEWS FOR THIS MONDAY.

[30:15] THANKS FOR BEING HERE WITH US.

[30:16] WE HOPE YOU'LL JOIN US LATER

[30:18] THIS MORNING FOR "THE EARLY
