you're watching "and the world." i'm suzanne malveaux. >> i'm michael holmes. happy friday. it is day 11 of the parnl government shutdown. six more days and we hit that debt ceiling. >> we have a couple of plans to already probably not going to get the votes needed to pass, but the tone of the conversation we think in washington is getting just a little bit better. >> that's something. the house may actually vote today on a republican plan to temporarily raise the debt limit, the cold can kicking but it is something. it would increase the u.s. barrba borrowing limit by six weeks so the government can pay its bill. >> in exchange, democrats including the president would have to engage in deficit reduction talks during those six weeks. but here's the problem. president obama has said he's not going to talk deficit reduction until congress, both increases debt ceiling, also reopens the government. those are the requirements. >> exactly. that is the kicker. right now at the white house the president meeting with senate raps who have a competing plan,

but will that work? jim accost a joining us now from the white house. what is the plan, the chances of su success? everybody is waiting. >> everybody is waiting and i would say the chanceses of success are bett eter today tha they were at this time yesterday because both sides started talking last night. they put the talking points aside and started negotiating. as you mentioned, senate republicans are here. they showed up about an hour ago. we saw senator ted cruz among many others republican senators showing up here at the front of the white house. they arrived in a couple of small buses. and they're meeting with the president now and we'll see what comes out of that. while there has been a lot of focus on the house side of the equation, the senate on the republican side also has some ideas and specifically susan collins of maine, she has floated a proposal that we can show you a graphic that details some of this. mirrors somewhat what house republicans are saying but also includes some other items that might be palatable to both

democrats and republicans. we'll have to see. it also talks about extending the debt ceiling for a short period of time although her plan would extend it for six months. i would end the shutdown, of course. and it would repeal the medical device tax that helps bay for obama care. that is something that the white house has been very cool to democrats, at least in the leadership have been cool to. so that is a part of the plan that may not ply. and then this plan would also give federal agencies some flexibility on sequestration. the white house probably likes the sound of that. they would like to get rid of sequestration and negotiate that out of the budget as it stands right now. so we'll have to see what happens coming out of this meeting. i'm not sure whether or not they will come to the microphones although when you have folks like senator ted cruz inside you have to expect the unexpected. >> absolutely, jim. fl only be a fly on the wall during that meeting. we saw earlier ted cruz at the valleys voter summit. he was quite the popular person there at that meeting and he really gave a riling speech, if

you will. i want you to listen to at least a part of this and we'll talk about it on the back end. >> sure. >> so this afternoon, president obama has invited the senate republicans to the white house. so after leaving here, i'm going to be going to the white house. i will make a request, if i'm never seen again, please send a search and rescue team. i very much hope tomorrow morning i don't wake up amidst the syrian rebels. >> all right. jim, a little bit of humor there. but obviously he's going to be sitting across the table with the president of the united states. he's not the president's favorite person here. tell us what you think the optics are here? what do you think is behind the scenes happening in terms of at least trying to move the ball forward a little bit here. >> senator ted cruz is probably

going to have to worry about what might happen to him inside of his own caucus. he might need a search and rescue team next time he meets with his fellow republicans because a lot of people inside the gop are blaming ted cruz right now. he was very much one of the architects of this defund obama care strategy that resulted in the government shutting down and the nation getting very close to default. so it will be interesting to see, i think, what ted cruz has to say after this meeting at the white house, not so much what the president or white house officials have to say, what he has to say because as you're starting to hear republicans perhaps on the more moderate side or perhaps more establishment side of the gop starting to say, hey, wait a minute, this wasn't a good idea. john mccain saying this was never going to work all along. if ted cruz starts to sound as if he's softening his edge a little bit, it might be an indication that we're starting to head towards a breakthrough. >> obviously two very different plans, republicans putting out there on the table. so far one of them has been

widely rejected by the president that he's not going to be negotiating when it comes to the budget and -- >> the shutdown. >> exactly, the shutdown. >> it's going to be an interesting day ahead. earlier we heard from the head of the house democratic caucus. he thinks house speaker boehner should be forced to put to a vote a clean budget bill to end the shouutdown. >> right now there are enough votes for it to pass. 19 republicans, 200 democrats. they only need 217. but boehner does not want to bring this to a vote. republicans, they aren't yet forcing him to do that. >> if we're optimistic it's because we know the votes exist and at some point if it's not through sheer force of republicans who want at a vote when perhaps through the sheer force of the american people talking to republicans and republican leadership that have resi resisted a clean vote on the house floor we're going to get there and we feel confident that ultimately the public will send a clear message to all of us in

washington, d.c. get back to work. >> so as we mentioned, there is a republican plan in the senate. it would end the shutdown, increase the debt ceiling by six months. that is a big difference in the six weeks on the house side. it does keep the sequester, those forced cuts, spending cuts, in place. and that is something this the democrats deeply oppose. i want to bring jones into the discussion here on capitol hill. how are democrats reacting to the senate snaide here of the republican plan? any more likelihood that could be something the two sides could agree on? >> hi. well, that's another big question mark here. we've got these different competing plans. we just heard from the chairman of the house democratic caucus that they are still focused on house speaker john boehner bringing to the house floor a clean spending bill. and that's not even really part of the discussion here. what's part of the discussion right now is this bill, this idea, this plan that house republicans presented to the president yesterday. the president -- the white house

showing they were please with the fact that these talks are going on. the rhetoric has been dialled back. of course not pleased that that plan didn't reopen the government. so that's why you have these competing plans from senate republicans. you have senior senate republicans. people like susan collins, lindsey graham saying, we've got to reopen the government. these people are agreeing with heard reid who says let's reopen the government and then start negotiations. so all of this is being discussed right now and worked out. there's no real plan on the floor either in the house or the senate right now and so this is what is being discussed behind the scenes. something that would both extend the debt ceiling, get rid of this threat of default, and also reopen the government. >> and athena, any idea of a deadline or a target here or are we just kind of in this, you know, middle ground, no-man's-land? >> well, we know for instance that senate majority leader harry reid has filed a bill that would extend a debt limit, a clean bill, to a year. and that will face a procedural

vote tomorrow. you can just tell there's a lot going on. we don't have anything right now on the house floor schedule that indicates thats there's a vote scheduled just yet on this debt limit plan that's being worked out. so it's still very much in flux right now, guys. >> wow. okay. athena jones, thank you very much. we're going to be following all the developments because we still do not know what's going to happen here. it's days away. >> a lot of people i'm hearing from are saying put it to the vote. the votes are there. do it. but they're not doing it. here we go. we continue on. coming up, republican congresswoman marsha blackburn has been standing her ground. what she thinks about the government shutdown and the debt ceiling deal on the table. >> she's next on "around the world." [ banker ] sydney needed some financial guidance so she could take her dream to the next level. so we talked about her options. her valuable assets were staying. and selling her car wouldn't fly. we helped sydney manage her debt and prioritize her goals,

so she could really turn up the volume on her dreams today... and tomorrow. so let's see what we can do about that... remodel. motorcycle. [ female announcer ] some questions take more than a bank. they take a banker. make a my financial priorities appointment today. because when people talk, great things happen. hearty cheeseburger. creamy thai style chicken with rice. mexican-style chicken tortilla. if you think campbell's 26 new soups sound good, imagine how they taste. m'm! m'm! good! imagine how they taste.

a day 11 to the partial government shutdown. the republican party appears to be getting most of the glam here. this is the group from the u.s. chamber of commerce to the national retail federation, both with close ties to the gop. they're pressing for a end of what they're calling the politics of brinksmanship. >> marcia black purpose is joins

now from capitol hill. you know, obviously we've all seen the people are mad but the core group behind this, the group of right wing republicans seem to be taking the lead here and potentially damaging more moderate elements of the part. do you feel that the party is being hijacked or ted cruz is representative of how you all feel? >> you know, i tell you what, it's so interesting to hear the way you all frame this. my goodness. and what we know is that the american people by and large have overwhelmingly said, you've got to do something about the federal spending. $17 trillion worth of debt is not acceptable. and bear in mind house republicans have done a lot to try to avoid a government shutdown. we've tried to get the senate to work with us. we've sent them four different crs. we're asking them to work with us on the debt ceiling. we've sent them 16 different funding bills. please take them up.

we have voted to fund most of the federal government and keep it open. and by the way, 83% of the federal government is open. i'll tell you what you are right about. people do not like the fact that there seems to be this dissension in washington, d.c. and they have a right to be angry about that. but i tell you what, they need to be look at harry reid and the president who were saying will not negotiate. you can't put certain things on the table. what we are asking them to do is to join us at that table and out of respect for the taxpayer, let's solve this problem. >> i want to move the discussion forward if we could here talking about reopening the government here. there are obviously two plans from the republicans. one on the house side, one on the senate side. the house side doesn't necessarily guarantee the government would reopen during that negotiating period that six weeks where the debt ceiling is raised. but the senate side actually does say that is part of the priority theity of actually reopening the government. which plan would you support? what are you willing ing ting

order to reopen the government? >> i think the house has a god plan. we want to continue to work through these funding issues. >> the house doesn't actually reopen the government. the house allows -- you're correct. >> six-week extension to raise the debt ceiling. how would you reopen the government? the senate republicans do at least have that as part of their plan. >> reopening the house, i mean, reopening the federal government means the senate has got to join the house and negotiate through this continuing resolution and through a budget. and that is going to be a priority. we cannot continue to spend money we do not have for programs we do not want and passing the bill on to our children and grandchildren. $53,000 per person is what the debt load is right now. $53,000. that is not acceptable. continuing to look at a growing debt and annual deficits that mount up every year.

borrowing $2 billion a day. we are saying, this is not responsible. you've got to finally get a handle on it. and we're pushing to do that. >> putting the debt reputation of this country at risk response i believe, can't these negotiations happen outside of that process which really affects the rest of the world? >> you've got two separate issues. you've got the debt ceiling issue and the house doesn't want us to have a default on the debt. i think the speaker's has been very clear about that. you've got the continuing resolution that deals with the partial government shutdown. as i said, 83% of the federal government is open. do you think it is good to be out here borrowing $2 billion a day? >> keeping the debt ceiling down the road six weeks -- >> china, japan, opec, out here holding our debt? you know, what we have to do is get the spending under control. we don't have a revenue problem, we have a spending and priority problem. and what we in the house are

saying is, look, the house controls the purse strings. you have to put these issues on the table. you cannot let the out of control spending continue. you cannot let this out of control borrowing $2 billion a day, you cannot continue to do that. >> and so essentially, you're standing by the house republican plan which doesn't reopen the government necessarily and -- it does kick the can down the debt ceiling debate will continue six weeks later. >> no, it doesn't kick the can. >> the international markets already responding. >> the international monetary fund is horrified of how the u.s. government is behaving. >> the house, i would remind you, the house is the entity, the chamber that has put plan after plan after plan on the table and has asked the senate and the white house to work with us. we were pleased that yesterday the white house invited some of our elected leadership down.

that is a step forward. the senate is talking with the president this morning. we would hope that harry reid would finally negotiate with the house and would deal with the budget issues, the funding issues. he has tried to kick these to the side every single year. we would love for them to work with us on the cr and get the government open. we are hopeful that they are going to work with us on the debt ceiling, that the president will work with us on it and make certain that there is no default. >> congresswoman, thanks so much, marsha blackburn. >> thank you. so clearly, they are far from agreeing here even with the republicans, the house, the senate republicans, very much divided on the priorities moving forward to break this impasse. >> and when it comes to -- we talked with richard quest about this, too. when it comes to the world's confidence in the u.s. economy, the backbone of the world economy, they look at it going six weeks down the road, that doesn't make anyone feel better about the system. >> no. it doesn't make a lot of sense.

and the debt ceiling deal. it might be in the works but are republicans and democrats, are they willing to compromise? are the republicans willing to compromise with each other and, as you mentioned, is the damage already done there we're going to look at how the world views the united states move to flirt with default? my name is mike and i quit smoking. chantix... it's a non-nicotine pill. i didn't want nicotine to give up nicotine. [ male announcer ] along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. [ mike ] when i was taking the chantix,

it reduced the urge to smoke. [ male announcer ] some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice any of these, stop taking chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of depression or other mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these, stop taking chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. it feels wonderful. i don't smoke. i don't smoke. [ male announcer ] ask your doctor if chantix is right for you.

let's take a quick look at the markets today. stocks were flat at the open but started trading up early here. take a look at that. up 93 points now, hovering around 15,000. here's take a look at what happened yesterday. washington, very own richard quest, he is moderating a cnn debate on the global economy. the imf managing director was there, chief white house economic adviser also there. and some of the world's most powerful figures in global banking. >> of course, a big issue was the looming american debt limit deadline. the rest of the world watching this very closely and it has to be said with some measure of nervousness, richard quest is with us now.

great job yesterday. the people on your panel though are not looking inside the borders. just talking with a congresswoman earlier and talking about -- do you think people in the united states are understanding, the politicians, are understanding the nervousness outside the u.s. borders? >> i think that what's happening here, of course, is the people who are at the imf and world bank, they are certainly understanding the nervousness and they're certainly feeling the effects of it and they certainly realize what could happen. but they are absolutely powerless to do anything about it, michael. time and again, time and again they are saying the u.s. needs to get its act together. the u.s. needs to put its physical house in order. the u.s. needs to raise the debt ceiling. but time and again they don't seem to be able to get that message across. kristina guard had another go. >> it will have financial consequences that will apply not just to this country but across the globe given the strong

interconnectiveness across the economies not to mention the basic practicalities of how to deal with technical default, impaired/nonimpaired security, given the very, very deep penetration of treasury bonds from the united states and all portfolios around the globe. >> that's the point, michael, suzanne. everybody, every bank, every insurance company, every mutual fund, many governmentses, ordinary investors in their portfolios and their pensions have some form of u.s. government securities in their banks. and the ripple effects could be quite tremendous if the worse comes. but, of course, i'm going to come back to what the market are saying. the markets do not believe the worse will happen. that's what you saw yesterday. that's what you're seeing in the numbers today. >> richard, is there damage done internationally? when you talking about investor

confidence, how long is that going to take to get, you know, people to actually feel good about what the united states is doing and even if they do break the logjam? >> well, this is a really interesting point because there is an absolute opposite effect here. on the one hand everybody is feeling good about the united states' economy, whether it's because of shale gas oil, back onshoring. all of those sorts of things. people are feeling good about u.s. economic growth 2% to 2.5%. knee-jerk on the other side you get these issues of budget, debt, deficit, debt ceiling. and they are clouding what people here would say should otherwise be a spectacularly sunny prospect for the u.s. economy. >> rich chart, i've got to squeeze this in because i know you've got the world view. if they kick this down the road six weeks, what is the big picture view of how the u.s. is being governed? if this happens and it happens again next year and it hatchs in

two years from now and these sort of politics impacts the running of the economy and, therefore, the world economy as well gets impacted, how does the tside world look in on how the u.s. is being governed, the system? >> it -- it doesn't look good. the market prices it in. people yawn and sigh and say, well, we'll have to live with it. but underneath, the damage is done and the interest rates start rising just a little bit and the confidence evaporating and people start to look elsewhere. it's very small. it's -- but it will happen over time. >> interesting. richard, always great to have you on the program. richard quest there. >> not to mention the fact that the value of the dollar, i mean, they're looking at that as well. people hold our debt, china and japan. they're looking at the value of the dollar. what happens to the value of the dollar. >> a lot of investors turning more to the euro. we see that happen. >> all week we have been hearing what people have to say about the government shutdown. coming up, we're going to go to florida for some messages to washington.

people very frustrated still.

nchtsds it's no secret to say that a lot of you are frustrated with this partial shutdown of the federal government and you are telling us just how upset. >> our john zarrella is hearing from seniors in ft. lauds s is florida. we're not seeing an end in sight just quite yet. >> yeah, and they are certainly quite frustrated, suzanne, michael. we are here in this community called lauderdale west. 2500 people live here. they live in single family homes, duplexes, quads. they tell you they live comfortably but they're not wealthy and many of them are on fixed incomes and they don't want any compromise in washington to include social security or medicare. and that's one of the messages they want out there.

>> exactly. people here living in this community are on a fixed income. a lot on social security. interest rates are so low, it's ridiculous. you can't make any money on whatever money you do have and it's wrong. it's absolutely wrong. >> i would like to turn -- go down to washington and do your job the way we want you to do it. do it for the country, not for your pockets. >> the stock market's gone down. i've lost thousands of dollars. it's gone down over 500 points. and that will hurt many people and i don't know what will happen in the future. >> and that's one of the big concerns, too, because a lot of these folks for 30, 40, 50 years, you know, have stock portfolios that they have done well with lately but that's their nest egg. when they see things in washington impacting the stock market, it certainly worries them. certainly the people here in

this large west community. one woman told us one of the problems and a lot of people are tellings us one thing they don't like to hear is when those programs like social security and medicare are called entitlements because they will tell you they worked hard for a lot of years to benefit from those benefits. so that rubs them the wrong way. suzanne, michael? >> thank you. >> good to see john. >> one of the things republicans are talking about, though, they want to reform entitlement programs, that includes in their view, social security, medicare, medicaid. >> a lot of people are saying, entitlement is a dirty word. it's not entitlement, per se. the partial government shutdown is also preventing folks from visiting some of american war memorials over seas. this is the american memorial cemetery. this is near the normandy landing beaches in france. well, it is closed. >> you see there the gates are locked, a message of the bar says the cemetery is closed until the shutdown ends. you see this message actually at

every u.s. memorial cemetery and monument overseas today and that is a lot of places. >> american burial grounds are located in ten countries. they are the final resting place for about 125,000 u.s. servicemen and women. the shutdown has wide ranging effects all over the country. of course, it is especially hurting food producers. >> how the fishing industry and citrus growers are feeling about that. and how they're feeling it, up next. this was the hardest decision i've ever had to make.

the secretary of state headed off to afghanistan today. one of those unan fwhounsed vsi have it. atsz security deal that would leave some u.s. fwors fwhs

country beyond the scheduled bull out date with his end of fwheks year. frr some significant sticking points if the not the looesz to mention that hamid karzai is not respecting afghan sovereignty, going in there and acting on their own. they want to be able to do special forces actions against al qaeda elements in the country and karzai saying you can't do it without us involved. so that is a sticking point. meanwhile, this is a very disturbing story for people keeping an eye on what's happening in syria. human rights watch came out with of report today that islamic groups that we have talked about, al qaeda linked, committed what they call serious abuses in a string of villages. this happened back in august. and you will remember that

bizarre b bashar al-assad, they over ran the positions occupied ten villages. this happened in the coast at province of latakia. some people calling it war crimes. >> war crimes. in libya today, a car bomb exploded. this is in benghazi. this happened outside the swedish consulate. surveillance video shows a driver parking the car, walking away before that explosion there. amazingly, no one was hurt. also right now we have waiting to hear from libya's prime minister. he is speaking to reporters about the or dial thdeal that m through yesterday. he was abducted at gun point by militia meshes thmbers that let after a few hours. >> he's meant to speak this hour. not sure what he's going to say. as you said, it's just a

disturbing bably insecure situation in lib ga. we are seeing wide ranging effects across the nation. >> food producers are not working. kraft beer makers suffering as well. >> don't mess with the beer. >> reporter: from south florida to the last frontier, the shutdown is hitting food producers. >> they just need to get the quotas so they can goat out fishing. >> reporter: the deadliest catch crew grounded with no federal quotas issued they can't get a permit to start the crabbing season. also a concern for rest rants like tracey's king crab shack. >> what i think do you think is the worst case scenario for you in this shutdown? >> they don't get crabbing. the crab crisis goes so high that i am priced out of the market. since it is my only thing that i sell, you know, i'll be priced out and i don't know that people would be willing to pay that

price. so it would potentially, worst case scenario, put me out of business. >> reporter: down south citrus growers usually consult the citrus forecast but the agency's entire website shut down. and the kraft beer movement bubbling up all over america is running into problems getting new beers on tap. >> we can't, one, put our formula in for the approval or, two, get a label so we can register it with the states to sell it to our distributor. we're completely prevented from brewing this next beer because of the government shutdown. >> in utah and elsewhere, shutting of national parks have locked out hikers and park goers and hurt local economies. but now some hope. interior secretary sally jewel will, quote, consider agreements with governors who indicate an interest and ability to fully fund national park service personnel to reopen national parks in their states. still no luck for this little guy. his picture outside washington's national zoo has gone viral

labeled by one tweeter, the absolute saddest shutdown photo you will see. erin mcpike, cnn, washington. >> a lot of people effected. >> don't mess with the beer. really. because they can't get the labels approved they can't get their seasonal beers out there. >> small businesses losing money here. the partial government shutdown, of course, or not, utah's five national parks are actually reopening. that's going to happen on saturday because the obama administration is allowing states to use their own money to reopen some of the national parks. so utah is going to pay the national park service $166,000 a day for up to ten days. >> yeah. erin mcpike touching on that in that previous story. if the shutdown does end before then the state will get a refund of the money. >> this is a tough way to go. this very serious but, again, triumph. this is a young woman, of course you might recall. she was of shot by the taliban a

year ago. that did not silence her as an advocate for girls' education. well, now, 16-year-old, she has even bigger dreams. >> i want to become a prime minister of pakistan and i think it's really good. [ male announcer ] this is jim, a man who doesn't stand still. but jim has afib, atrial fibrillation -- an irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. that puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. for years, jim's medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but now, with once-a-day xarelto®, jim's on the move. jim's doctor recommended xarelto®. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afib-related stroke risk. but xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. that doesn't require routine blood monitoring. so jim's not tied to that monitoring routine.

[ gps ] proceed to the designated route. not today. [ male announcer ] for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions, jim can eat the healthy foods he likes. do not stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, without talking to the doctor who prescribes it as this may increase the risk of having a stroke. get help right away if you develop any symptoms like bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. you may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take xarelto® with aspirin products, nsaids or blood thinners. talk to your doctor before taking xarelto® if you have abnormal bleeding. xarelto® can cause bleeding, which can be serious, and rarely may lead to death. you are likely to bruise more easily on xarelto® and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. tell your doctors you are taking xarelto® before any planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems.

xarelto® is not for patients with artificial heart valves. jim changed his routine. ask your doctor about xarelto®. once a day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring -- no known dietary restrictions. for more information and savings options, call 1-888-xarelto or visit goxarelto.com. more than a decade an international group has worked to rid the world of chemical

weapons. well, today, they were awarded a nobel peace prize. >> we're talking about the orgsz for the prohibition of chemical weapons. they won this year's peace prize winner. the second year in a row it's gone to an organization and not an individual. they're in syria at the moment attempting to dismantle the assad regime's chemical weapons stockpiles. >> this week they oversaw the first direction of chemical weapons equipment in syria. so many thought the peace prize would go to malala yousafazi, a pakistani teenager shot by the taliban, working to promote education for girls. but she is still a win erk of course. she won another award, a dichbtd different award this week. >> she won the prize which honors freedom of -- this comes a year after she was shot in the head, almost killed on her school bus. some of her schoolmates also injured. despite that, though, she

continues to share her story around the world. >> our own christiane amanpour hosted a meeting with malala. we have heard about the attack. we've read about the attack. but when you sat down with her and she described it to you, a very, very different kind of emotional thing that unfolded. >> it was really amazing. i spoke with her and her family who raised her to be this outspoken girl, you know, really fighting for the rights of girls and everybody to have peace through education. and i asked her whether she remembered what happened to her that fateful day. >> he asked who is malala. he did not give me time to answer his question. and my friend told me, my best friend, that at that time we just squeezed my hand, just pushed it with force. and you do not say anything. and then in the next few seconds he fired two bullets. one bullet hit me on the left

side of my forehead just above here and it went down into my neck and into my shoulder. i think i was hit by only one bull bullet. and it also effected my eardrum, so now i have problem in listening as well. it also cut down my facial. but still if i look at it, it's a miracle. my brain is okay, my spinal cord is saved. everything is fine. i can smile, i can talk. i thank god for that. >> she is a remarkable person. i must say there are a lot of people who are questioning the nobel decision, not that the otcw is not an incredibly worthy group and doing incredibly worthy work. as many are now saying it will be a year to know whether they succeed in syria where has mks

alala has put herself on the line and has nearly died. she said that actually she would like to go into politics and maybe even be a female prime minister of pakistan one day. >> between you and me, i couldn't agree more. i mean, in many ways a hard decision given malala being on the list and heading the becking, i think a lot of people lost money with the bookies on this, too. one thing that is so tragic is that even after she's won this prize and all the rest of it, the taliban and pakistan came out and said she didn't deserve the prize because she got it for hurting islam, that they would still target her and kill her even if they could do so in the united kingdom. just unbelievable. >> well, michael, precisely. and as always, the taliban are distorting it. you know, what's going on. they are now trying to spin the fact that it's not that they're anti-education. they didn't attack her because she was lobbying for education, they say. but because she was lobbying for

anti-islamic western ideals. and of course, that's not what was going on. she was lobbying for education and she continues to do so. >> absolutely. terrific stuff. she is amazing. i can't get enough of her. >> she's a hero. >> christiane, great entintervi as always. >> a special room, this is the bravest girl in the world. and she certainly is. this is sunday, 7:00 p.m. eastern right here on cnn. really just an incredible, incredible young woman. senator ted cruz, is he the new face of the republican party or the symbol of his party's divide? >> it is because of you that the house of representatives has been standing strong, because the house has been listening to the people. yo, yo, yo. aflac. wow.

all right. we understand that the house republicans have offered a deal with the president with the white house, of course, raising the debt ceiling for six weeks but it does not offer a potential way out for the government to reopen. and that really is the sticking point for the president. they are talking about negotiations over a six-week period but there is not a resolution when it comes to reopening during that period. >> it's going to be interesting to see what the white house says about that. just a couple of hours ago

senator ted cruz really got this whole thing started. get a bit of a greeting from a heckler or two as he spoke at the conservative values voter summit. >> it seems that president obama's paid political operatives are out in force today. i'm curious, is anybody left at the organizing for america headquart headquarters? i'm ack-ac i'm actually glad the president's whole political staff is here instead in the of country. >> they praised him widely for his views and he has sparked the controversial fight to defund obama care or shut down the government. so the question of course is cruz is new face of the republican party, is it a fringe

element, is he gaining traction here? i want to bring in ron to talk about it and, ron, you wrote this very provocative op-ed here, this piece, and it kind of harkens back to what republicans and democrats were debating before about what president obama represents here. does he represent a real change in this country, the face of the country, and who has power? can you explain that? >> yeah. yeah, that's why i think it's so fascinating that cruz was heckled today on the issue of i'm xwrags because cruz really is at the fulcrum of a shift of the republican thinking just since telection. obama lost white voters by a larger margin than jimmy carter did against ran nald rod reagan. after that the dominant view of the republican party was, we have to reach out to other groups that have not been voting for us, particularly hispanics

and asian american. the push for immigration reform that marco rubio led and cruz opposed. you see the balance of power and the party move away from that. turn out more of their core supporters to an uncompromising concerted agenda. that's what we're seeing, i think, play out ultimately here in this government shutdown and the debt ceiling fight. >> just got a few seconds but i want to put you in and get your thoughts about, is this -- the ted cruz faction, if you like, is that potentially something that could split the republican party? is it perhaps the genersis of a third party? >> you know, i don't know if they will split off into a third party but no question that it is splitting the party as we're watching. not so much over ends but means. broad opposition of obama care, dead manned f demand for smaller government. so far the poll is pretty

overwhelmingly say, no, the gop is looking at some of the lowest numbers ever in both gallop and nbc/"wall street journal" polling. >> you write this is not a fight of the role of government, how big the government is but who gets the benefits from the government, right? >> right. i think what really the driving force that is the real passion and energy in the republican base is much more about transfer payments, things that they view as going to the voters, they view as kind of, you know, not supporting themselves, food stamps, welfare, the obama health care plan is seen in that light. there is much more resistance, suzanne, than is commonly understood among core republican voters to reducing social security and medicare which are a -- medicare in particular, a much bigger driver of the overall federal deficit. when you look at the blue collar and older whites, they're not so enthusiastic about going down that road. >> we could talk to you for much

longer. >> we have to get you back here. >> appreciate it. thank you. marylailyn monroe's x-rays being auctioned off. details. they expose, kind of surprising, actually. if you're seeing spots before your eyes, it's time for aveeno® positively radiant face moisturizer.
