This is excruciatingly embarrassing for the white house. When they get it fixed, i hope they fire some people. On cbs this morning. I got on the computer and had no trouble whatsoever. Signed right up to obama care and ordered six months mexican viagra. [ laughter ] announcer this mornings eye opener is presented by announcer this mornings eye opener is presented by toyota, lets go places. Captioning funded by cbs welcome to cbs this morning. Good morning, norah. Good morning to you, charlie. We begin in washington where leaders are closer to ever to ending the standoff on capitol hill. More talked expected today. The 15th day of the Government Shutdown and two days before the deadline to increase the federal debt limit. The Senate Leaders says theyre close to a deal, but many republicans in the house are worried about giving up too much. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill. Good morning. Reporter good morning, norah. They are putting the finishing touches on that. It could reopen today. It would raise the debt ceiling for about four months. Its being crafted by Senate Leaders who took over after talk between House Republicans and the white house fell apart. Gridlock finally gave way monday as the senates democratic leader and his republican counterpart rushed to reach a deal. Weve made tremendous progress. We are not there yet. But tremendous progress. Reporter the plan theyre discussing would fund the government through midjanuary. And raise the debt ceiling until midfebruary. A new committee of bipartisan negotiators would look for ways to cut the deficit between now and middecember. And a new antifraud provision would be added to the president S Health Care law to verify the incomes of those who apply for insurance subsidies. The framework seemed to satisfy senate democrats. Its positive. Its extremely positive. Reporter and Senate Republicans. Now, were finally talking about the right thing. Reporter House Republicans could be harder to win over. They wanted major changes to obama care and had proposed a very different plan with a shorter increase in the debt ceiling to the president s. Its like a hot potato because our deal, he didnt want to deal with. Reporter still, they may not have any other options, if they want to raise the debt ceiling before the deadline. Virginia republican frank wolfe. It is time to show some humility. It is time to govern. Lets get the vast back open ensure we dont default on our debt and then commit ourselves to curbing unsustainable entitlement spending. So what will the house do if the Senate Passes this bill . Well, many republicans weve spoken to in the house said theyre waiting to see what the final plan looks like. Others are already talking about amending it. But the one person we havent heard from is House Speaker john boehner. He will be getting feedback from all the House Republicans at a meeting at 9 00 a. M. Eastern before he announces what hes going to do. Norah and charlie. Nancy, thank you. Thats just part of the deal. The other part, president obama, his meeting with congressional leaders is on hold this morning. Major garrett is at the white house. Major, good morning. Good morning, norah and charlie. If his deal holds and as nancy indicated its a big if. President obama would take it and claim victory because it would reopen the government and lift the default at least for a few months and largely on the president s terms. The president remains largely on the sidelines. The white house has deferred all the final negotiations to Senate Majority leader harry reid. If this deal passes the senate and survives a vote in the house, it will buy washington more time but not much. More budget talk, coming. And the real question is can washington break seemingly ends cycle of one budget crisis after another. Leon panetta said here in washington that Congress Republicans share a lot of blame. Avenue half the blame of president obamas refusal to negotiate new ways to talk about spending, tax, and entitlement like medicare. Now this fragile deal and if made by washington, some more time. But the central question is, will president obama bring a new leadership style . Because these budget talks will come back in a few months, and another crisis will follow after that. One former cabinet secretary says the president has to change his approach. Charlie and norah. Major, thank you. The budget compromise first took place over the weekend after a meeting of Senate Republicans and democrats. Senator klobuchar was one in that meeting. Good morning. Thank you, charlie. Great to be on. First of all, many saying senate win and lead to final accord. Are you surprised . No im not. As i said earlier. The senator Susan Collins played a major role in bringing this group together, six democrats, six republican, half women. I think we played a constructive role in setting up ideas and bringing it to leadership on both sides. I dont think its also a surprise that the senate is able to work out agreements and find some common drowned. Weve been doing it with the farm bill, the immigration bill. Im very hopeful the house will follow suit. But the question is, did the democrats and the president get most of what they wanted, so that you will not be able to sell it to john boehner who will be able to sell it to his caucus . Well, the more you think of it, this is an agreement that doesnt contain a lot of partisan pills. Or really anything except keeping the government open. Give a short time frame important to both republicans and we really want to have a budget to negotiate a larger budget deal so we dont lurch from financial crisis to financial crisis and make sure were paying our bills for the next few months while were making the negotiations. I think in that way, everyone knows the job isnt done yet, but the real job is ahead of us. Senator, let me press down that because already House Republicans have said this is the senate surrender caucus. What have you given to help get these House Republicans on board . Well, i think, first of all, the deal, im not going to negotiate it right here, the outlines arent there. But i think what has happened here is that we made very clear, were keeping the budget control act in place. But giving an opportunity to negotiate a longer term budget. We have a Senate Passed budget and a house passed budget. Theyve always said they want to work it out in regular order. We can do that and figure out a way to get smarter cuts in place rather than the hammer of sequestration. There are cuts, thats true. But theres also other things we can do, reform, revenues to really put this country in a better place to compete globally. What about be recessions on obama care . Anything for republicans . Well, again, the details arent out on this yet. I think youve seen changes in the Affordable Care act out over time. The 1099. Id like to see a major change with the medical device act, get that repealed. There are things we can do. But i think the president s point is now is not the time to do it when the governments shut down. Let me ask you a final question about the obama care website where people can sign up. 400 million was spent on this site. And as you know, it is plagued with problems. Some people suggested people should be fired. Whats your take . Well my take is first looking at my state where we havent had quite those problems. Weve had over 10,000 people get accounts over 300 Small Businesses. And there are clearly some issues. And everyone has said that. I think the most important thing for the American People is the rates are pretty good. There are some great bargains there that you around able to get if youre a Small Business or individual on the regular market. I think in the end, once those glitches are fixed, what really matters is whats the product. What you can buy. Whats the competition. Thats what matters in the american marketplace. Senator klobuchar, good to see you. Accused terrorist Abu Anas Al Libi will face a judge in new york. Hes accused of taking part in the bombings in africa. U. S. Special forces captured him ten days ago. Our Senior Correspondent john miller say former Deputy Director of national intelligence. John, good morning. Good morning. Youve got new reporting this morning. What do we know about al libi, he was captured in libya, on this boat, what have we learned . Taking to the san antonio. The u. S. S. San antonio is the name of the boat. Hes got hepatitis and moved more quickly into this. Part of the haig, after the Detention Group does, they may tricks up into admitting things that they already thing we know. This was a matter of days. His information about al qaeda in libya might have had some value. His information about al qaedas Central Command is probably fairly dated by now. So other than the fact that this guy might have been responsible for something and that they very much wanted to get him, do they really believe he has anything that he can give them with respect to whats happening today . I think thats an exercise they have to go through. And i dont think they have enough time, charlie, to know that now because usually thats something you learn at the end of that process. Most of these guys always hold back what they think is important. So thats an open question. Where theyre going with this case is actually very interesting. Because you say, well, the Embassy Bombings which killed 225 people including a dozen americans back in 1998. You know, thats an old case, bringing him to trial for that, finding witnesses. But they have a smoking gun witness, an individual named ali mohammed. Not much is discussed about sally mohammed. But hes a story in himself. A former captain in the egyptian army, part of the unit that assassinated sad dat. Came to the United States. Got the rank of sergeant. Was assigned the jfk special Warfare School at ft. Bragg. He taught u. S. Special forces. The same people who captured al libi. Arabic language skills. Islamic culture. All of that time, he was a double agent for al qaeda. The thing that makes him critical is back in 1993 through 1997, al libi was part of the planning process with ali mohammed to blow up the embassies. Thats a direct witness who could say i talked to him, we did the bombings. I assume they like the idea that the United States is saying we will track you down no matter long its been . And theyve done that in this case. Theyve litgy gone to the four corners of the globe. East africa, south africa, libya, egypt. You name it. Two days of Nuclear Talks between iran and the United States and five other world powers begin this morning in geneva. These are the first negotiations since iran electeded a new president in june. Rouhani is taking a moderate tone than his predecessor. Not everyone is convinced with his approach. What has brought this to pass, what has got rouhani to the negotiating table are the existing sanctions. And weve got to have the leverage to increase that to make certain what they understand were serious about having them in their Nuclear Weapons program. In geneva where the talks are taking place, elizabeth palmer. Good morning. Good morning, charlie. Well, the negotiators all arrived on time this morning. The iranian team is being led by their own foreign minister mrmr. Mr. Zarise and wendy sherman. We learned that they stood up with a power point presentation that laid out the compromises on the nuclear program. Shortly thereafter, the meeting broke up so all parties will be studying that very carefully. You mentioned that rouhani has changed irans tune, really. Thats unmistakable. Not only with that landmark phone call with president obama, but also, hes been pushing back at the hawks at home. Hes told the revolutionary guard corps, the very antiwestern military force. To back off, to stay out of the politics. Hes been backed by that by irans supreme leader. So this is an administration that wants to deal. However, it comes down to how badly do they want those sanctions lifted. And what are they willing to give . We should know sometime in the next 48 hours. Charlie and norah. Thank you, liz. At least theyre talking. A powerful earthquake rocked the philippines. At least 85 people are dead. More than 100 aftershocks were record but no tsunami was generated. Seth doane is covering did.
