republicans in congress ready to face the music and perhaps to pass a plan today to keep the government from shutting down, but there's one thing standing in the way. the president of the united states. elisabeth prann is live in washington. >> small detail. the house is ready, poised to vote on a stopgap funding bill that would keep the government running from october 1 through mid-december but here's the caveat. it includes items conservatives pushed for, defunding theçó affordable care act. a video released noting the president seems to be more interested in negotiating with the president of syria but not lawmakers here in the u.s. jay carney calls it putin envy but the house speaker isn't laughing. >> while the president is happy to negotiate with vladimir putin, he won't engage with the congress on a plan that deals with the

deficit that threatens our economy. a debt limit increase without any reforms isn't going to cut it. >> the democrats, including majority leader harry reid were quick to down play efforts. reid will try to strip the language and right now it looks like he may have the votes to do so. >> sending a strong message to theñi house, we will not blink. don't get it into your heads that we will. we won't. don't make it part of your strategy that eventually we'll cave. we'reñi unified. we're together. you're not. >> as you mentioned at the beginning, the white house also issuing a veto threat for any bill attempting to overturn theñi law, the president citing it would cost millions of american families the security of affordable health care coverage. as we all know, insurance exchanges open in about a week and añiçó half. elisabeth, steve action
3:06 am
brian, -- steve, brian, back to you. >>elisabeth: we heard democrats say we're notñr does that means they are the ones blocking it now? are they indeedçó the obstacle on the course? >>brian: possibly. if they're going to vote on this and kick it to the senate, not even joe manchin perhaps is going to jump ships because a lot ofçó them in private circles noted obamacare seems to be a debacle, not ready for prime time. to me the perfect compromise would be putting qr of the united states a chance to look like kofi annan. number two, it would be a chance for everybody to reevaluate because it's not ready to be launched. today there is another story how they can't set up the exchanges. computer systems aren't ready. even the states thatçó want to get on board can't get on board. >>elisabeth: your count would say we're going to have this whole syria and
3:07 am
economic discussion in a year. we want to do this in a year. maybe we'll be better off. >>steve: unfortunately this is no app for what is about to happen in washington. they're going to vote today. the house is going to send over something that would essentially defund obamacare, but the president has made itñi very clear. he said, i'll veto it. and of course harry reid and company, they're not going to stand for it. it was nancy pelosi talking about the debt ceiling and this kind of has to do with the same thing. this is playing with fire. legislative arsonists are at work when they start using the debt limit for their own agenda. the democrats have done that in the past, a delicious irony. a republican who has been in the white house with three different presidents says we have just found president obama's red line. i'm talking about pat buchanan. he was on with sean last
3:08 am
night and here he is talking about how the president is inflexible onçó this. >> obamacare appears to be the one rehr line that obama will go to the wall to defend. good luck. what is going on here? the republican house is going to pass a continuing resolution forçó the entire government and obamacare is not in it. obamacare, according to senator max baucus, a democrat, is a train wreck on the american economy. what barack obama is saying is i will shut down this government with my veto if you don't send the money for that train wreck with it. >>brian: to be candid, charles krauthammer, karl rove, two people, one a strategist, a deep thinker as well as charles krauthammer said this is a bad plight. the way it is going toñr be played, you're going to be
3:09 am
the ones blamed for shutting down the government. senator john mccain against it. what is unbelievable to me is that senator schumer as well asñi the president of the united states when he was senator obama had a different take. >>elisabeth: in 2006 they were talking about the debt ceiling. let's refresh their memory. go ahead.çó >> raising the debt ceiling which has been done over a hundred times does not increase our debt. we now have over $9 trillion of debtñr that we are going to have to pay back. $30,000 for every man, woman and child. that's irresponsible. it's unpatriotic. >>steve: the first sound bite was from the president a couple ofñi days ago at the business round table. misspeak because he said essentially that raising the debt ceiling does not increase our debt. i know he studied law and not economics.
3:10 am
but increasing the debt ceiling indeedñi raises the debt. hello? and then, but when george bush was in the white house and they were talking about funding the government for another period of time, he was against it. like john kerry, he was against something before he was for it. >>elisabeth: he said he would also put us at risk domestically and internationally. i guess we're alreadysys ei getting wker there so what the heck. we're going to head over to heather nauert. >> happy friday to you. while urpg -- you were sleeping there was a fresh round of storms in indiana. this happened after açó different storm with lightning triggered several fires and left two people dead. a bolt of lightning blasted into the front window of a home in gary, indiana sparking a fireñr there. those flames killing a fire inside his home and now this morning his newborn baby is in the hospital.cyj4(p3

3:39 am
heartbreaking to see that. it shows, i think it is the ultimate form of disrespect. the family members are there to get answers. they have legitimate questions. and having all of, having the democrats get up and leave shows they don't care about the truth. they don't care about the family members. and they don't care about those who were killed in benghazi. it really shows that not only was it rude, it was completely disrespectful to the families. >>elisabeth: hillary clinton's original testimony -- >> this has been a year. why are we still talking about this. i see you kind of perking up. what's on your mind? >> anybody that served or been around folks who served, their blood boils. it is profoundly disrespectful to walk out regardless of what the politics are. this is a body that makes a decision to send people into harm's way. whether you agree or disagree with a grieving family, have the respect to hear what they have to say and answer some questions. >>elisabeth: hard
3:40 am
questions were thrown at mulling and pickering as well. are they falling on the sword for the higher ups? >> i don't know. we've got to look at whether they're able to ask the right questions of the right people. you've gotñi nondisclosure agreements signed across the board. were they talking to the people who knew exactly what was happening and capable of fully exposing and talk about what happened. this is all about a lack of accountability prosecute day one. and what -- accountability from day one. hearing is we're still not asking the right questions about what, where, when and why? families weren't told about what happened. everyone directly involved has been told to sit down and stay quiet. that is why this has stayed as pertinent as it has been because they were told to sit down and be quiet. >> we gave four names to the secretary of state that we believe were failing in their senior leadership and

management responsibilities. >> it's your testimony today that something should have happened? they should not be on the job not having lost a day's pay? >> we made recommendations that two of those people removed from their job. >> people should have been fired that have not been fired? >> fired is a discipline. it is a different set of circumstances. >> so accountability is -- >> -- for the secretary of state and what he or she -- >> wouldn't you agree there was no accountability? >> there was accountability. >> on a point of order. >> and we identified it. >>elisabeth: certainly a fiery exchange there; right? no firing. it's the new "f" word. now we have a rubber roomçó situation here instead of true accountability. >> that is a federal government employee aspect too. it is almost impossible to fire a federal employee. state department, department of veterans affairs. no one gets fired. they get shuffled around and moved around. there is no accountability. >>elisabeth: do you think a selectñi committee will get more answers than what
3:42 am
we're hearingçó now? >> i think so 100%. you have several committees out there doing the investigatij somewhat disjointed. we need to have a select kpwh-t come together. -- select committee come together. obviously there was failure before, during and after. not sending in troops to rescue folks that areñiñi in harm's way goes against the very fabric of this society and it is just a tragedy and we need to get answers and accountability. we should have a targeted select committee doing so. >>elisabeth: amber, what is your thoughts to even hillary clinton who is like let's get over this here, let's move on. >> absolutely. she needs to be called in to testify. i think it will make a difference. benghazi happened on her watch. she was the leader of the state department at that time. she needs to answer questions to congress, to the family members of those who were killed and to the american people. she was given a heads up apparently, right, in thesgçç report. did she get a special pass? it certainly seems so. i think that we all deserve
3:43 am
as americans to see it come from her mouth, why she continued to lie about a youtube video, that she chose to make those decisions. >> this is us in benghazi, our ambassador, our representative, our soil. for it to be dismissed and backhanded, walking out on hearings for those we lost, a full investigation not happen is an abdication of leadership and responsibility and sends every signal to the world of a weakened america. that's why -- >> there is no greater red line that is drawn in the sand with blood than an attack on american soil and the killing of our presidential surrogate to that county. >>elisabeth: well said. amber and pete,çó we appreciate y'all being here. now i'm afraid of you later on in our challenge. >> we'reñi going atçóñr it. >>elisabeth: she took ministry out of a church and into strip clubs. meet the woman making her mission to spread the love of god where no one else would go. it was a huge week on "fox if you missed a minute, don'tw3 worry.

4:19 am
sells cereal. you have one choice -- the basic package. only the copay and deductible is different. secondly the subsidy, if you get one, is from the government rather than your employee. so only people with low income get the subsidy. third, you are at big risk on the obamacare exchange of not being able to use the doctor and hospital you prefer. those exchange plans pay doctors and hospitals so little that only a few will participate. >> i want to ask you about it. speaking of hospitals here. cleveland clinic slashing the budget by 6% in preparation for obamacare to go into effect. >> not surprising. congress was told before they passed the law this would happen. richard foster, the chief actuary of medicare warned over half the law is paid for by cuts to medicare. $247 billion less money going to hospitals. he warned and it is clear there will be layoffs. fewer nurses on the floor. when you need help, you wait
