[0:02] President Clinton and congressional

[0:04] Republicans blame each other for the

[0:06] budget deadlock that has shut down

[0:08] government operations all over the

[0:10] country. The strange case of the

[0:12] congresswoman and her husband as

[0:14] investigators look into their finances.

[0:17] He suddenly disappears. And now stepping

[0:20] up to the plate, the repo man in a high

[0:23] stakes game of tag with uninsured

[1:11] hours.

[1:11] >> In fact, the mood was so serious it

[1:21] it out. The Republic of this country is

[1:23] at a moment of serious crisis. We don't

[1:25] want to have the government shut down.

[1:27] We don't want to have the United States

[1:28] default.

[1:29] >> We've been sent in here to do real work,

[1:31] not just to have some kind of a a pho
