Obama is on his way home after lobbying World Leaders to support his military strike on syria. But when he lands, he has to gear up again and convince the American People, and lawmakers here to stand with him. Abcs chief white house correspondent, jonathan karl, is traveling with the president and asking the Big Questions tonight. The president didnt find much support for military action against syria here at this summit of World Leaders in russia. And he acknowledged he may not find much at home. Its conceivable that, at the end of the day, i dont persuade a majority of the American People that its the right thing to do. And then each member of congress is going to have to decide if i think its the right thing to do for the Americas National security. Reporter the president decided to ask for congressional approval before striking syria, but he has not said what he would do if Congress Votes no. I still havent heard a direct response if Congress Fails to authorize this, will you go forward with an attack on syria . Right, and youre not getting a direct response. Reporter well, its a pretty basic question. I think we will be more effective and stronger if, in fact, Congress Authorizes this action. Im not going to engage in parlor games now, jonathan, about whether or not its going to pass, when im talking substantively to congress about why this is important and talking to the American People about why this is important. Reporter support in congress is plunging. Even Democratic House leader nancy pelosi said today that the president needs to make a stronger case. In an attempt to do just that, president obama said he will give a speech to the nation on tuesday. Before leaving russia, the president had a brief, unscheduled meeting with Vladimir Putin that did nothing to overcome their differences on syria. In fact, afterwards, putin was asked what he would do if the u. S. Attacks. Will we help syria . We will, he said. As for the rest of the world, 11 of the 19 countries at this summit signed a joint statement blaming the Syrian Government for using chemical weapons. But stopping short of calling for military action. Several other countries here, including china, brazil, argentina, and of course russia, have come out against a strike. And actual Material Support for the United States on this is almost nonexistent. At this point only france would join the United States if theres a military strike against syria. Thanks so much, jon. At home, we continue to track how the president is doing on his request for congressional support. As of tonight, the opposition seems to be rising. Last night our Political Team counted 217 house members who say they opposed it or likely would. Tonight the number is ticking up, now at 225 likely to oppose. Next, we turn to jobs in america. And the monthly report today showing 169,000 jobs created last month. Less than hoped. Less than experts predicted. The Unemployment Rate did inch down to 7. 3 . But inside the number is a sign that your neighbors are eager to buy a hot car, or several of them. And the cars may be driving a lot of jobs. Abcs chief business correspondent, rebecca jarvis, is here to tell us. What are the hot cars right now . The hottest vehicle right now is actually a truck. The ford f series. One selling every 42 seconds in this country. As far as sedans go, its the toyota camry, one selling every single minute in america. Then theres the ford fusion, one selling every two minutes. Its why were hearing from ford that theyre adding jobs here in the u. S. 1,400 new jobs to build fusions. And overall how many jobs in the Auto Industry . Overall, 19,000 new jobs in auto manufacturing in the month of august. Its one thing people will see at dealerships, many of them dont have enough cars to supply the people with. Theyre selling faster than they can replenish. Thats good news for jobs because the carmakers have to ramp up their production. Okay, rebecca, thank you. Next, we turn to the new report on arsenic levels in rice. The kind of rice in most american kitchens. The fda issued a new finding today. Dr. Richard besser tells us what it means and what to do. Reporter babys first solid food. For many, its rice cereal. And for the rest of us white rice, wild rice, brown rice, rice crackers. We eat rice every day. Today the fda gave results of arsenic tests on 1,300 rice products. They found inorganic arsenic, the most dangerous kind, in most of them. Arsenic is always in the ground and in water, and rice absorbs it. Ironically, the highest level is in the healthiest rice brown rice, with its shell. The fdas report says the amount of detectible arsenic is, too low to cause any immediate or shortterm Adverse Health effects. Industry groups are pleased with the report and say, it supports the process by which fda is moving forward. But this story is not over. Those headlines that say dont worry miss the point. The point is not about immediate, shortterm effects. Its about the longterm health effects. Reporter long term, arsenic could lead to cancer and problems with your heart, lungs, and nervous system. The fda has already set arsenic limits in apple juice. Todays report is, its hoped, a first step to limits in rice as well. So what should the producers of rice do differently . The rice industry is taking it seriously. Theyre looking at ways to grow and process rice and try to keep it out in the first place. Were not talking china here. Were talking american rice growers . Thats right. This is american rice. If youre making rice, you want to reduce the arsenic. Rinse it until the water runs clear. You want to cook it in extra water, so the arsenic stays behind. And then vary your diet so youre having other grains and not eating as much rice. As a pediatrician, im no longer recommending rice cereal as a first food for children. There are other things that dont have the risk. I know youll be writing more about this online. Thanks so much, richard besser, reporting in. Now we turn to newly released video of the man who held three women captive in that house in cleveland and then took his own life. Abcs alex perez takes us through what we have learned about ariel castro on this tape. Reporter when amanda berry vanished without a trace in 2003, her heartbroken mother, louwanna miller, never stopped looking for her. Its been 370something days and just not knowing. Reporter today in newly released Police Interrogation obtained by nbc news, ariel castro told police that a week after he kidnapped amanda, he used her cellphone to call her mother himself. What did you say to her mom . I think i said something that i have her daughter and that shes okay. And that shes my wife now. Reporter castro said he didnt identify himself and quickly hung up. Louwanna miller died in 2006. Today Cleveland Police would not comment on whether or not they knew about or investigated that call. During those ten years castro held berry, gina dejesus and Michelle Knight hostage inside that cleveland house, police never suspected him. But castro told investigators there were close calls. He thought school cameras captured him luring gina dejesus to his car. You said we could have broke the case right then and there. Because they had surveillance cameras. Reporter castro says another time his girlfriend heard a tv on in the upstairs room where Michelle Knight was imprisoned. My heart started beating and i said shes probably coming on to it. It was a close call . Yeah. Reporter tuesday, in a tiny prison cell, castro ended his life, as his victims finally move on with theirs. Alex perez, abc news, chicago. And there was another videotape that had everyone stopping to listen today. An internet confession. Something a man says he did that killed someone else. Abcs linsey davis tells us about the man begging everyone else not to make his mistake. Reporter with his face pixelated we were all drinking heavily. Reporter and his voice distorted just hopping from bar to bar. Reporter 22yearold matt cordle makes a startling confession. I killed a man. I ended up going the wrong way down the highway, directly into oncoming traffic. And i struck a car. Reporter inside that car was 61yearold vincent canzani, a photographer, Navy Submarine vet, and father of two. On june 22nd, 2013, i hit and killed vincent canzani. Reporter and online his actions are largely being revered with posts like, well done, young man and, we need more people like this. Though we did find the occasional post like, never should someone be rewarded for having the guts to admit they committed a wrong by drinking and driving. According to the prosecutors office, on monday, cordle will face a grand jury and up to eight years in prison. The video is also evidence of an increasing fascination with what some might call a confession culture. Just last month a florida man, accused of killing his wife, confessed to the grisly murder on facebook. In cordles video he holds something called a promise card, part of a social movement dedicated to bettering humanity through the power of a promise. Cordle has already made one promise when i get charged, i will plead guilty. Reporter and he hopes the public will make a promise too. Im begging you, please dont drink and drive.
