00:00:22 This is Clete Roberts reporting from Phenix City, Alabama.

00:03:39 ...has been exaggerated in any way?

00:07:12 Well, I'd have to explain that when I was a boy...

00:10:11 ...mother of four boys...

00:15:29 ...you walk across this bridge.

00:19:32 Tell me, tell me Have you heard the news

00:23:25 I lost him to some babe out in the front room.

00:28:04 - You hear from Jeb? - Uh-huh.

00:31:57 - I'm minding my own business. - I know you are, and I respect you for it.

00:35:15 What? No, Dad.

00:39:30 Mob violence, even in the hands of decent people, solved nothing.

00:42:40 Oh, I'm afraid that would take an act of Congress.

00:48:18 Keep those civilians back in there, all right?

00:53:22 Campaigning across 97 counties is too big a job for a man of my age.

00:57:01 - There could be trouble. - We don't want trouble.

01:01:45 Well, you won't win here.

01:06:58 It's the coroner's opinion that Fred Gage died of a fracture of the skull...

01:11:30 Can you blame them?

01:15:27 But the people listened.

01:19:13 So now's your chance to speak out.

01:23:31 Hey, Rhett.

01:28:26 Clean them out, as Pat would say, "From stem to stern."

01:34:23 Listen, back there a few minutes ago, I was gonna beat a man's brains out.
