Good to be here. Charlie rose is returning from assign hmt in damascus. Thats where he sat down with syrian president bashar alassad. Its assad aeps only television intervup since president barack obama asked the congress to authorize a strike against syria for a chemical weapon assault last month. 1400 people were killed in damascus with gas. 40 0 victims were children. We begin with the question at heart of the matter what happened that dye . What was the reality august 21st . What happened in your judgment . Were not in the e. R. A. With the alleged chemical attack happened. Were not sure anything happened. Even at this date youre not sure chemical weapons the even though youve seen the video tape even though youve seen the bodies think havent finished. Our soldiers in another area were attacked chemically. Our soldiers went to the hospital with casualties because of chemical weapons. In the area where they saved the government use fd chemical weapons, we had slid yoe and only have pictures and allegations. Were not there. Our no, sir o, our police our institutions dont exist. How can eye talk about what happened if you dont have evidence. Were not social Media Administration for government. We are the government that deals with reality. We have evidence. As you know secretary kerry has said p theres evidence rockets fired from a region controlled by your forces into a rooejen of control by the rebels. They have the evidence from satellite photographs of that. They have the evidence of a message intercepted about chemical weapons and that soon thereafter other intercepted messages. Secretary kerry has present odd what he concludes is conclusive evidence. He presented confidence and conviction. Its not about confidence. Its about confidence. Russians have complete loi opposite oefd that chemical weapons were flown from area controlled. That reminds me p about what kerry said about the big lie that was said in front of the world on sat side. He said this is our evidence. He gives false evidence. In this case kerry didnt present any evidence. He talked about evidence and didnt f present anything nothing so far. Not single evidence. Theres intense discussion about the thirngs were the talking about in washington where if theres a strike hit will imnate from the United States decision to do this. What do you want to say in this very important week in america and in washington to the American People to members of congress to the president of the United States . P. I think the most important is say to the American People p the majority now dont want a war anywhere. The Congress Going to vote about this. I think the congress is elected by the people and should frent people. The first question she should ask themselves what do wars give america . Nothing. Nothing to gain no economy gain no good reputation. Therefore this is against interest of the United States. The war is going to support al qaeda and the same people that killed americans in 11 of september. The second thing they should ask and what they expect fixing to ask is evidence they have regarding the chemical story and allegations that they presented. Up until the president were disappointed by their behavior hospital. We expected this administration different from bushs administration. They are looking the same doctrine with different necessities. Thats it. We expect something from this administration is not to be say we have evidence. We have to obey the International Law p go back to security and United Nation zblechlt second wlarks the f can you say to the president that believe os chemical weapons were used by this government that this will not happen again present what you have as evidence to the public. Be transparent if he does . If he presents that evidence we can discuss the evidence he doesnt have. He didnt present it. Kerry didnt have it. No one in administration has it. If they had it they would present to you. They have presented it to congress. Nothing. They have shown the congress they have from satellite, intercepted messages and alike nothing has been presented. They have presented to congress, sir. Youre a reporter. Get this evidence. Show it to the public until your country. They presented it to the public you dont know what youre doing and plans of what youre doing to people in your own council. Theyre showing it to people that have to vote on authorization to strike. The president of power when he show the evidence it was false and forced. Second you want know believe american evidence and dont believe indication we have. We live here. Assad gave aye chilling warning when charlie asked what he kind of retaliation american interests could face if u. S. Launches a strike. Will it be attacks against american bases in the middle east if theres an air strike . Expect everything. Expect everything. Not necessarily through the government. The governments are not only player in this region. You have Different Party o different identities. You have everything in decision now. You have to expect that. Tell me what you mean by expect everything. Expect every action. Including chemical fare . That depends if rebels or terrorists in this region por group have it. It could happen. I dont know. Im not teller to tell you whats going to happen. Wedlike to know more. The American People would like to know if theres an attack what might be the rep cushions and who mooib engaged in those rep cushions. Before 11 is of september, i said to say that dont deal with terrorists as playing games. Its a different story. Theyre going to pay the price if youre not wise. There are going to be repercussion of dealing with it. Nobody expected 11 of september. Nobody expect it. Its an area where everything is on the brink of explosion. Expect everything. We have much more analysis head and more from charlies intervooi in our next hour. Watch the sbooir f intervoou without edits tonight on char live rose on pbs. In london secretary of state is responding to kerrys interview that the u. S. Has no evidence of them ordering chemical weapons. We know his regym gave orders to prepare for a chemical attack deployed sources and put them in the place this took place. We know by tracing it physically i have where the rockets came from and where they landed. It is no accident that they all came from regime controlled territory and all landed in opposition controlled or contested territory. O we know this. We know that within moments of them landing in that territory, the social media exploded with videos that we also know could not be contrived. Weve done various means of ascertaining that through Technology Check up. Secretary kerry says assad can turn over the chemical weapons by the end of this week. With us now, john miller served in the director on the floor National Intelligence office. Good morning. Good morning. Theres a lotto talk about a lot to talk about in this intervoou with president assad and charlie rose. I want to ask about a question char loi posed to the president about will there be attacks in the middle east if theres a strooik by the u. S. President assad responded by saying you should expect everything. Not necessarily from the government. The government is not temperature only player in this region. Charlie asked about chemical o warfare. What do they have . They have a service in military that should have o by now prepared target folders for likely targets in the region and beyond. Beyond their military youve got the soirks with the terrorist organization fighting in the streets of damascus and the suburbs against the rebels. They have capability. Theres the wildcard of other states ooir ran who might decide to do something in support of syria or distract attention from nits other swooigss. You have plenty of wooild cards. We hear charlie ask about the stock pile of chemical weapons. President assad said we never said we dont have it. He denies the attack that killed 1400 of his own people and 400 children. What did you make of president assads response . I think when the skbel jens analysts show up at the white house to brief the president , hes going to ask the same questions. The analysis youre going to get. President assad, this is not his first rode yoe. He didnt fall off a turnip truck. Hes playing to a number of audiences. His best intelligent source now is the newspapers. He is clearly read that the thing that is causing the white house trouble about getting approval from congress is the fear of retaliation. If youll note through the charlie interview, he touches that nerve as many times he can. Expect everything he says. Frankly, you might look at hit an lit cli and say if hes struck in a punishment operation, were going to hit you in limited strike. You know how much that hurts and you wont do it again. Theres no upside to retaliate. Hes escalate thanksgiving situation to limit. Right now were in the propaganda phase. Hes telling american f public if he youre woired about retaliation, i need to ban those worries. Thank you very much. While the striegs lacks evidence of the attacks by the regime, it passes what he calls the common sense test. President barack obama gives a look at his tuesday night speech. Hes fighting to gain support in congress. May jor garrett is at the white house. Good morning. Good morning. This is a pif toll week. Many close to the include this. This will likely show what the president hopes to bring in his second term. Theres the evidence where the white house is on capital you hill. Its a common sense case that the regime launched this attack. They cant prove that. Thats problem mat hick for the administration in brooefings. When they say its common sense circumstantial case they may not vote to book this up until they see it. Surprisingly they thought they could win in the senate. Thats somewhat of an open question. Eight democrats, as many as 12 way behind in the house thooil deal with it after the senate. As far as the senate lobbying is concerned, at the Vice President ss residence with republicans tuesday, hell press his case. What about the message from the white house . As you said six net work interview miss including cbs and prime time address tuesday the president will yoouz every tool in his tool box. Not to bring the new message to the American Public T Administration is not going to change poll numbers, strikingly against striking the regime, they want to meet members face to face and persuade them. The white house tend to guess work that as hard as they can yuthds the intervoous and prime time address tomorrow. One other voice p former secretary of state Hillary Clinton will back military strikes the against testify rejooem. You can catch that tonight on cbs evening news.

Thats why david agus is with us this morning. Plus Prince Andrew didnt get treated lie a prince at the palace. That is ahead. On friday we told you about an ohio man who posted dramatic video confession online. He admitted to killing a 61yearold hed never met. Well, today prosecutors are expected to file charges and the man said he will turn himself in. Don dahler is here. Don, good morning. Good morning, norah. In the 3 1 2minute posted online he admits he was driving and drinking trying to have a good time when he lost control. The mans face and voice are concealed as he begins the chilling confession. I ended up on the wrong way down the highway directly into oncoming traffic and i struck a car car. I killed a man. Then he reveals his identity. My name is Matthew Cordle and on june 22nd 2013 i hit and killed Vincent Canzani. This video will act as my confession. Cordle was already a prime suspect but lawyer told him he could beat the charges if and when they came. Maybe i would get a reduced sentence and maybe i would get on but i wont dishonor vinces memory by lying about what happened. Franklin prosecuting attorney said it was highly unusual and his own lawyer was surprised. He confessed to a crime that he wasnt even indicted on. This was a completely unique situation. Steve crane was a friend of the 61yearold victim Vincent Canzani. This is the right thing to do. Thing thats how vince would look at it. In fact, i think vince would be proud of that young man. Of course Vincent Canzani can no locker speak for himself but the daughter called the video selfserving saying, quote, my family has not been helped at all by this video. Nothing has changed for the better. And if anything its only caused us heartache. I know matt and i know why he did this and it wasnt to make himself look better. It was to raise awareness about drunk driving and to apologize. Cordle says he will plead guilty and faces between two and eight years in prison. I beg your and i say the word beg specifically. Im begging you, please dont drink and drive. The victims daughter says the timing was bad and that if cordle wanted to raise awareness about drunk driving he should have waited longer. Now for procedural reasons the 22yearold will initially plead not guilty to vehicular homicide and then plead guilty. Whether he gets two years, the lawyer says under ohio law he will not be eligible for early release. Thank you so much. 4 million babes are screens for rare genetic diseases. Now the government is spending 4. 5 Million Dollar to map a babys entire jean gnome. The program is controversial. Dr. Agus good morning. Good morning. What could this genome sequencing tell us . It tell use the blueprint of the baby but more important they they could tell you today how they metabolize drugs. Now we stick the heel of a baby and look at metabolic diseases. This is a much more accurate way of looking at it. I think whats exciting is last night great paper came out showing leukemia can be lichked to a gene and say which child would shah that and hopefully prevent those diseases. What kind of diseases . Mel a bottic. Its definitely going to happen. We can look at percentages. The hope is we can start to study how parents react to the situation, how kids do and how to prevent the diseases. You had yours mapped on the front pages of the journal. You have kids norah has kids i have kids. Information is power. The more you know hopefully the more you know the more you change your behavior. I showed i was heart risk for heart disease. Now i eat better i exercise and its a family affair. One thing some people might be concerned about, though, is whether this information could possibly be used against them or their kids. Is that a possibility . You know it certainly was and in 2008 president bush passed g. I. N. A. Which makes it illegal to use it. It should not in this country be used against you. We showed this incredible list that shows every disease, whether its crohns disease, psoriasis, types of cancer multilet sclerosis. I have to ask you. Doesnt this become a mind game . If you know about this with your child or yourself you may be worried you may get one of these things . No question about it. Thats why the government did the write thing. Theyre looking at a study. We have to figure out sometimes it may be overwhelming or there may be a better way to counsel them so that doesnt happen. So i agree with you this is something we have to use with caution and thats why its very exciting. The government says hey, this technology is going to come down dramatically in price. I know as a doctor you would argue that having this information could help prevent these diseases and lead to less medical care in the future. We know that. For 50 bucks to 100 bucks. Thank you very much. There was a royal blunder. Officers stopped what they thought to be an intruder. It turned o out to be Prince Andrew fifth in line to the throne. Char la dagata is outside the palace in london. Good morning to you. Good moshing to you. They eventually got the version of no harm no foul. They say Prince Andrew has accepted that apology but inside palace wars he is said to be furious. After the embarrassing breakin at the palace two days earlier, its likely police were a little jittery. But that might not justify pouncing on Prince Andrew the queens son, in the queens garden. He was shouted at to put his hands up and face down. Prince andrew held at gunpoint but police said nobody used anypulled any weapons or used any. He tersely replied somexpolice get it wrong and said i am grateful for the apology and look forward to a safe walk in the garden later. How would this have gone down . It wouldnt have gone down right at all. Prince andrew krs himself a Senior Member of the royal family. Hi would assume he has a high enough public profile to be recognized by everyone in the country let alone Royal Protection officers and Security Officers at bumming ham. Reporter just two days earlier a burglar managed to scale the gates after dark reach one of the palaces state rooms. The queen wasnt there. She and Prince Philip are still on Summer Vacation in scotland but as easy as it appears, there are places that make it totally secure. We could be shot down raise the perimeter fence and have rainray bied dogs. Two men are being held in custody with the yormg nal breakin. Theyre checking out a range of areas. That may be brushing up on whos who in the royal family. Jeff and norah . That would be a good idea. Charlie dagata, thank you.

Time warner is also doing it. Cbs news contributeor and analyst Mellody Hobson is with us. Good morning. Good morning. Whats i bim doing and is it going to be a trend . Absolutely i think its going to be a trend. What theyre doing is taking their retireryiesyiesry retirees off their plan and allowing them to go to a private insurance exchange. The idea here is they wanted to make sure they could stabilize costs for retires, not cut them. Because they anticipate by 2020 the Health Care Costs will triple from what the retierees are paying right now. So is this in reaction to the president s Affordable Care act known as obama care . Not in reaction but certainly in response to the escalating health care that president obama is talking about. Theyre seeing these costs escalate. Its not going to help ibm per se. They limited it the amount go decades ago. Theyre really saying the retires are going to be in trouble here. Mellody, i understand kwhiewhy people are doing this. Is it good or bad. I would say in the short term its neutral. The Health Care Coverage should be as good or better than what theyre currently getting because theyll have more choice. If it works, the Health Care Costs should come down. The reason i say if for this to work you need to get young people into these exchanges. In order to offset the older people who use more health care services. Mellody, most are hearing this and saying this is a former company i worked ke cads for and theyre screwing me. I dont think thats actually the case. What testified has shown and that theyve explained to them is this gets really comfortable. They just now have control. It reminds me very much with what happened with pensions. We went from situations where they would manage your retirement for you and they went to a defined Contribution Plan where they give you a set amount and you make the decision. Were seeing the exact same thing right now. Its not necessarily good or bad. Its just different. Were seeing a changes good monday morning.

But were going to have to wait until wednesday. The numbers then inland only in the upper 80s. Good morning to you. Its 8 00 in the west. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Well have more of charlies worldexclusive interview with syrian leader Bashar Al Assad. The syrian president is warning america, if you strike, expect repercussions. A Major Business school conducts an experiment to get more women into the executive suite. And Serena Williams beats the second seed at the u. S. Open last night to claim her 17th grand slam title. Wow. Shes here in studio 57 looking just like a champion. But first a look at todays eye opener at 8 00. There would be repper cautions from the United States against other countries like iran or hezbollah or others. It may take different forms, direct and indirect. Assads only Television Interview since president obama asked congress to authorize a strike against syria for alleged chemical weapons attacks last month. Right now were in the propaganda phase. He has to tell the American Public, if youre worried about retaliation, i need to calm those worries. The most important week because the way this turns out will likely influence many other things the president hopes to accomplish in his second term. Haunting video confession of a drunk driver. Is it remorse or a legal maneuver . Is your kids dna mapping what you recommend . You want to know what youre up against. The more you know the more you can hopefully change your behavior and do the right thing. Apologizing for incident saying Prince Andrew has accepted that apology, but behind palace walls he is said to be furious. The green jacket own id p by the first ever winner of the masters sold for a whopping 682,000. Charlie rose tried it on in studio 57. That fit charlie exceedingly well. Im Norah Odonnell with gayle king and jeff glor. Charlie rose is returning from assignment in damascus where he sat down with syrian president Bashar Al Assad. It is assads first Television Interview since president obama asked congress to authorize military action against syria for an alleged chemical weapons attack last month. The white house says more than 1,400 people died in attack including 400 children. The house and senate convened this afternoon after a fiveweek recess to take up the issue. Charlie asked assad if he believed washington will go ahead with military action against his country. Do you expect an air strike . As long as the United States doesnt obey the International Law and tramples over the charter e of the United Nations, we have to believe that they would do anything. But according to the lies that weve been hearing for the last two weeks from highranking officials in this administration we have to expect the worst. Are you prepared . Weve been living in these circumstances for the last 2 1 2 years and were prepared for every possibility but that doesnt mean if youre prepared things will be better. Its going to get worse with any strike of war. What do you mean war . Worst because of the repercussions repercussions. Nobody can talk about it. Youre talk about one big region. Its not only syria. Its an interlinked region, intermingled, interlocked, whatever you want to call it. If you strike somewhere, you have to expect repercussions from somewhere else in different forms in a way that you dont. Are you suggesting that in, affect, theres a strike, there would be repercussions against the United States from your friends in other countries like iran or hezbollah or others . Yeah. As i said. It may take different forms. Derek and indirect. Direct when they want to retaliate. Indirect when youre going to have terrorism and spread all over the world. Have you had conversations with russia, with iran, with hezbollah about how to retaliate . We dont discuss this issue, but we discuss the repercussions. Any American Strike would not destroy as much as the terrorists has destroyed in syria. Any American Strike would not destroy as much as the terrorists have destroyed in syria. So sometimes repercussions could be many more than the strike itself. Some feel it may tip the balance in the favor of the rebels and lead to the overthrow of your government. Exactly. Any strike would be a damage report of al qaeda and hezbollah and the Islamic State of iraq and syria. Youre right about this. Its going to be direct support. This is about Chemical Warfare and lets talk about that. Do you approve of the use of Chemical Warfare . What do you mean . The use of chemical, the use of deadly do i think we have to use them . Do you think its an appropriate tool of war to use chemicals . The chemical. Yes. We are against any wmd, weapons of mass destruction, whether chemical or nuclear. Youre against the use of Chemical Warfare. Its not only me. As a state, as a government, in 2001 we proposed to the United Nations, proposed to empty or to get rid of every wmd in the middle east. And the United States went against that proposal. This is our policy. But youre not a signatory to the Chemical Warfare. Not yet. Why not . Israel has it and theyre trying to occupy our land. Do you consider Chemical Warfare over nuclear . I dont know. We havent tried either. I know but youre ahead of state and you understand the consequences that are beyond technically theyre not the same, but morally theyre the same. Morally theyre the same. They are the same. But at the end, killing is killing. An incredible interview by charlie and yet syria has a very large stockpile of chemical weapons according to multiple intelligence communities around the world. I think as john miller pointed out, this is in part propaganda too, by the syrian president. He says that military air strikes, he said will be direct support to the al qaeda offshoot. In the full interview that you will see tonight on pbs, you will see charlie press president assad very hard just how many of these rebels, opposition represent al qaeda. This is the first time were hearing him speak. You have a softspoken guy who seems on the outside to be subtle and then you hear these threats. He says he had nothing to do with a chemical release. Hes making these not so subtle threats and dangerous statements. I think that separation in this interview is striking. Well see more of that. Hes clearly paying attention to what were doing in the United States. In our next half hour, assad tells charlie what he says to those who call him a butcher. You can see the entire interview with syrian president assad tonight on charlie rose on pbs. The senate is expected to vote on a resolution that would give president obama the right to launch limited missile strikes. The president is making a lastditch effort to win support. Last night he stopped by a dinner of Vice President joe biden. Narcy cordes is on capitol hill. Nancy, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, jeff. Weve been krufshlging the ing thecrunching the numbers on capitol hill, and the president s resolution has more support in the senate than it does in the house. Its still far from a sure bet in the senate. Take a look at our numbers. Currently cbs news has 27 senators who weve categorized yes or leans yes based on what theyve told us or what weve said publicly. 23 are no or lean no. So nearly split down the number with about half of the senate still undecided. But take a look at the numbers in the house. There 68 members have already said they are voting no and only 16 have said theyre voting yes. Add in the members who appear to be leaning one way or the other and youve got 184 in the no column, just 36 in the yes column. Still its early. The vote is probably a week away. There are about 200 member who is say they are undecided, waiting to learn more at a classified briefing today at 2 00 p. M. Pacific and they want to see what the president has to say in his televised address tomorrow night. Norah, gayle, jeff . Thank you. And many acknowledge if the house were held today it would fail. Hillary clinton will speak at the white house today on another topic, but she also plans to reiterate her support of the president s effort to get congressional backing for a military strike. President obama will sit down with cbs news anchor scott pelley today. Tomorrow night the president will take his case directly to the American People in a prime time address to the nation. Major garrett is at the white house. Good morning to you. Reporter good morninggame norah, and jeff. The white houses goal is to make president obama a nearly inescapable presence in the next couple days. In addition to talking to cbs, five other Television Network interviews today, the primetime address tomorrow night from the white house. White house aides tell us the goal is not to change the message or introduce anything new. The goal is to drive president s current message as aggressively as possible. White house aides also concede they dont expect the president to change the poll number thons question which still run lopsidedly against a military strike against syria. What they intend to do is use the president s advocacy today and tomorrow to convince members of congress who are on the fence or doubtful that its the right thing to do to support the president. Thats become more problematic in the senate this week than last week. About 8 to 12 Senate Democrats are no or leaning no. That could make it difficult for white house. A persuasive campaign for today and tomorrow is what the white house will hope is turning the tide Television History is in the making tonight. Were taking our cues from you and Television History is in the making tonight. Were taking our cues from you and charlie. We figure whatever you and charlie do, were going to do the same thing.

Lets get you updated on some bay area headlines now. We start in the middle east though. Syrian president bashar assad says his government had nothing to do with the chemical weapons attacks which the u. S. Government says killed 1400 people.

The morgan fire is burning atop mount diablo right now. It has burned 1500 acres so far doubling in size overnight. More people force the out of their homes this morning, as well.

And 54 in the city. Heres how we look today. It will still be 100 degrees in livermore so temperatures not giving firefighters out there much of a break. The winds are not that bad so thats good news. Well get a cooling trend. We have to wait until wednesday when numbers inland plummet down to the upper 80s. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Bashar al assad. They look what president obama needs to say in order to convince the American People it is time for action. Plus big changes in the Nations Capital tend to follow elections, but a washington Media Institution is getting a a new look today. Well talk with gwen ifill and Judy Woodruff today about history in the making. Thats coming up. First its time to show you this mornings headlines from around the globe. Livescience. Com suggests the benefits of early mammograms. Getting screened before the age of 50 dramatically reduces deaths from breast cancer. The study looked at more than 7,000 women. Britains guardian says Dennis Rodman told the world the name of king jonguns baby daughter. Her name is juay. He showed pictures of his trip to north korea and in pyongyang today he watch add military parade celebrating his birthday. According to psychologists, couples who do everything together are usually not satisfied. A better approach is doing separate but related activities. Im always of the belief a couple that golfs together stays together or cooks together stays together. I thing togetherness is a good thing. I like it. Londons independence say as long lost painting by Vincent Van Gogh has been found. The work is called sun set at mon me zur. He painted it in 1888. It depict a rocky landscape in Southern France with an abby in the background. They did not say who owned the painting. You can paint with your spouse. That might work. The telegraph says one of james bonds cars will be auctioned auchlt roger moore droesh it. s said to be fully operational under water. Its said to sell for 1. 5 million. And the New York Daily News says grammy winner bruno mars will be performing at the half time super bowl show. Some think a local star like Billy Joel Bruce Springsteen or bon jovi would be more appropriate. But bruno mars is from hawaii but hes got lots of hits. In his first tv interview when president obama asked congress to authorize the strike against syria. Assad spoke with charlie rose on sunday. He asked the president how hes changed over the years and why many consider him to be a butcher. When i first interviewed you, there was talk of Bashar Al Assad, hes the hope. Thats not what they say anymore. Who . People who write about you, talk about you, people who analyze syria and your regime. Exactly. So the hope for american is different from the hope of syrians. For me i should be hope for syrian. Neither american or french. Im president to help Syrian People, so this question should start from the hope of the Syrian People and if theres any change regarding that help we should ask the Syrian People not anyone else in the world. But now they say, their words, a butcher. Comparisons to the worst dictators to ever walk on the face of the earth, comparing you to them. Using weapons that go beyond war fafrmt everything they could say bad about a dictator theyre now saying about you. First of all, when you have a doctor who cut the leg to prevent the patient from the gangrene if you have to we i dont call him a butcher. We call him a doctor. We thank him for saving our lives. When you have terrorism, you have war. When you have war, you always have innocent life that could be the victim of any war. Tomorrow night president obama will outline his case on it. He face as skeptical public and divided congress. With us now, frank luntz. Frank, good morning to you. Good morning. In your estimation whierks is the president having such a difficult time rallying is support of the not only congress but the American People. Think about it. For 50 years it has been the republicans who have been most likely to use military action and the democrats. Now youre asking congress to reverse that. Democrats are supporting it and republicans are opposing it. So i think theres a political dynamic here that nobodys talking about that people are making decisions on where they stand in washington not just based on where their constituents stand but politics. The second part is i think the president is making a mistake by making it so much about him. In the end you have half americans, half republican. Youve got to bring evan in it. Is he staking a significant portion of his presidency on this debate . Absolutely. And there are domestic issues were facing ore the coming weeks, the debt deficit, sequester, potential Government Shutdown the Governments Health care plan. All of this is happening at exact employ the same time. He goes to the American People because hes such a good communicator. The problem is he waited too long. You just touched on the politics. Can you say why youre saying that . Yes. Weve been doing focus projects all along. Weve got more coming up. 70 of republicans oppose what the president is doing and i believe as a researcher that if this had been george bush and dick cheney, republicans wo vuld been supportive of the military strike. Conversely we see that they would have opposed it. I think politics is playing a major role. You see this new poll out of cnn this morning. If korng failing to pass a resolution, 71 oppose air strikes. The president is doing six interviews today and a prime time addressed on tuesday night because they would not win if it was held today. I believe that. And i believe hes having trouble in his own party. Thing of that. Youve got nancy pelosi on the house side trying to win those votes and she was one of the most vocal critics on the previousous poll assign iraq. Its almost like this is an ail tesh turn universe right now. The American People are more nervous about National Security today than they have been in a long long time. Thats sectarianism whats happening in syria. At a time when theyre so concerned about National Security thats significant. It certainly is a full course press on the president s part. What does he need to say . What do the American People need to hear from him tomorrow night . They need to know it will make the situation even worsz than it is today and they need to know theres a light at the end of the tunnel. It has to have a paz tinge impact and the consequences wouldnt be worse than the strike. At this point theyre nervous. Who is the famous person . Martin amoss. Very quickly, assads messaging, what did you think of that . I never heard him speak. The fact that cbs got that interview is incredible. America looks at him and think, he is an evil guy. Without question you say that. Yes. 80 . Neither the democrats or republicans in the house have made the case and its been weeks since this has happened. We expect a response immediately. Frank luntz, thank you. And tonight for if first time two women will coanchor ran National Television program. Gwen ifill and Judy Woodruff will take over the helm of pbss newshour. It comes with washington debating a military strike. Later later i fill sat down with them. Charlie rose has interviewed the president of syria, Bashar Al Assad, who is accused of killing some 1,500 of his own people. Many of them children, more than 400 children and hes completely denying that he had anything to do with this chemical weapons attack. Do you think that changes the debate . I think its great he got it. But were not surprised hes saying it. I think we would be stunned if he acknowledged he was behind what happened to those civilians a few weeks ago. I dont think it changes everything. I think it changes syria. Plus the people who are worried about the war are not fond of Bashar Al Assad. Gwen i fell and Judy Woodruff took over the newshour at a time as the u. S. Prepares for possible war. Two men, jim lair and Robert Mcneill created the program known for indepth analysis and anchored it formost of most of its 40year history. Were there times she said to you, oh, my gosh this is unbelievable . When i started out as a reporter it was the end of the 1960s what i faced as i was tie. He said we already have a reporter. We dont need one right now. My very first job, newspaper came to work i found a racial slur directed at me at my workspace. Instead of getting insulted or suing or whatever would have occurred at the age of 20 i just hung in there. I fill started in the boston newspaper in the late 70s. Woodruff worked for jimmy carter in atlanta. Between the two they monitored vicepresident ial debates. Now they will be at the news desk together in this sued owe. Its only a much more traditional set if you think about it. Most local newscasts are a man and a woman sitting together. Its not that traditional. Were taking our cues from you and charlie. Were going to do the same thing. Reporter behind the scenes theyre taking crews from their ore. Their boss whoos been the executive producer for years. I happen to know there are women in the Decision Making positions. But in those front row seats, the faces that people see of news its been i think weve been slower to recognize that women can make decisions. Why is it important to have women in those front row seats . I think its important when people watch the news that they see a newscast. They see people bringing the news reporting the news those who look like thechlt its taking time for the news to get there. These are two women you know. They questioned president s. Its going to be unusual seeing women sitting side by side. No question. I admire them so much. What an interesting time to take over today. I was teasing g web. Not bad place to start. Hay thai had an interview with president obama. If i left here there would be two women. When are you leaving . What do you say, gayle . I got the message. Cheryl samberg of facebook wants women to lean in to their careers at her alma mater. Jodie is showing how the har verdict is one of the Largest Companies in the u. S. 25 lead by women. She tried a bold experiment in gender equality. It goes far beyond the classroom. Jodi kanter wrote about it this weekend by the new york times. I read every single word. Im delighted to have you here today. They wanted to ghiv themselves a gender makeover. So what exactly did they do including hand rising. Thissous was not some pmt c. Program run amok. They really had serious problems. There was open Sexual Harassment for years. There was a gender gap. Many were sflaling behind. So they really had a serious impetus for addressing this. What they really tried to do is change the environment to make it mess less for women. At harvard 50 is based on class participation, so that means in a classroom, you have to be really assertish. You have to own the conversation and women were not doing it. So part of what they focused on was behavioral. How to assert yourself in a complicated confidence. These were very impressive students who arrived at harvard. One of the things they were taught at school is how to raise your hand in class. One student gave me an almost athletic demonstration or what they were teaching everything. Okay. You hear the professor, the question is coming you hear it and boom you go for it. I thing that has people scratched their heads. The women who get in are the smartest minds and presumably would be the business leaner md in. Part of what is going on is that for years and years administrators and faculty saw the same problem which is that married women or women in serious relationships were having the serious time. Each is also a very social environmental. These people are 26 27 and looking for mates. There was this choice. Do you want to be the business one or the smart one. Many bristled am some of this local tloefr. They made real progress. They had a Record Number recordsetting number of women werch akdom ek honors this year. But what they say is the environment has changed. Can i ask a question . I dont have a question. I wanted to do that. Oh that was a joke. They will tell you that was really strange. Jodie cab tore thank you. Youre ward. An incredible show today. That does it for us. As charlie would say, weve had quite a morning here. Jeff, great to have you here. Thank you for having me. I cant wait to watch every moment of this interview. Charlie has just landed in the United States. Hell be back here tomorrow. Up next your local news. Well see you tomorrow morning. Take it easy.
