or not alec baldwin -- whether or not you would be upset by it. carol wrote, mr. baldwin worked hard for that money and fame. i'd like to know your accomplishments. good question. we'll answer in the after the show show. democrats on the defensive this morning. the leader of the house democrats, minority leader nancy pelosi, is speaking out today amid all the backlash against obama care. she says that despite all of the enrollment problems, the health care law is working. and ms. pelosi insists president obama was not telling an untruth when he said that if you like your health care plan, you can keep it. good morning, everyone. welcome to america's news headquarters in the fox news headquarters. >> it's so great to be with you. eric, great to see you this morning. boy, not only the president but

also a lot of members of congress have said you can keep what you like. and all of this is coming as there's growing tension within the democratic party. we are seeing it. 39 democratic lawmakers breaking with the ranks, with their administration on friday. voting with house republicans. on a bill that would allow americans to actually keep their current insurance plans. that would also reverse a wave of cancellations so many people losing their coverage all across our country. peter is live in washington right now with much more on this. tell us the very latest, and good morning. >> good morning, jamie. the latest, you'll remember for the last few week said, obama administration officials have been promised by the end of this month, health cacare.gov will b working for a vast majority of users. now we know the vast majority they're aiming for is 80% of visitors. that's according to a washington post story that reveals for the first time the amount of

electronic enrollments the administration will consider a success. 80%. this week, the president said if insurance companies want to continue offering substandard plans and individual states okay those plans, then maybe that will stop the surge of cancellation notices. republicans say that's not good enough. >> what the president is proposing is basically a false fix. it's a political band-aid, but it's not a permanent cure for the people hurt by his policies, so it's time to start over. >> the latest fox news poll shows only 36% of voters approve of the way president obama has handled health care. that's a nine-point drop from last month's number. now the democratic minority leader is saying all the problems with the affordable care act such as cancellation notices that have surprised millions of americans, shouldn't sink the law. >> the law does not demand that

all of these -- that these cancellations go out. the law says, if you had your plan before the enactment of the law, you can keep it. that's what the president said. >> tomorrow night, president obama will hold a conference call with supporters. it's all being set up by organizing for action, which is a political group which pushes his agenda. it's being advertised as an opportunity to get an update on where things stand in their fight for change. >> all right, peeter, thanks for the very latest live from washington. eric? >> jamie, meanwhile, a drone accident has left two u.s. sailors with minor burns this morning. th this. this after being struck by the aerial target drone. it malfunctioned during a training session. navy officials say this all happened yesterday while the crew of the "uss chancellorville" was testing that ship's radar. the ship is now headed back to a naval base in san diego so officials can assess the damage

caused by the drone hit. meantime, the agency is also investigating what caused that drone to malfunction. >> also, a tragedy to report at penn state university. a student dies after falling from a ninth floor balcony. 20 years old, and he fell from the off-campus balcony early yesterday morning. the college not saying nor are the police on campus, if it happened during a party, but they are saying several people were in the apartment at the time of the accident. they also say drugs and alcohol were potential factors. the death toll is still climbing this morning in typhoon-ravaged philippines. now, nearly 4,000 people have been killed. 1,200 remain missing. this as the philippine president is responding to cries for help. he's visiting one of the hardest hit regions in the country, saying he's camping out there in the area until there is more progress and aid in that effort. we're in the philippines and here with the live report.

hello, william. >> the president also -- excuse me, eric, the president also sought to shift responsibility, blaming local officials for poor preparation. now, the locals that i spoke to gave the president mixed reviews, but said right now it was most constructive to look forward. the mission is simple. getting supplies from here to there. accomplishing it is not. the first step is clearing roads so heavy equipment can begin cleaning up the mountain of debris still clogging the city, letting officials salvage what they can. this backhoe is clearing a canal so stagnant water, a breeding ground for mosquito born illnesses like malaria, can properly drain. the backhoe arrived yesterday from cebu. >> everybody is helping each other. >> the typhoon also wiped out the warehouse district, crippling the city's ability to move product. slowing commerce to a crawl.

another problem, employment. coca-cola, san miguel beer, the call center, they're all closed. no job, no income. no income, no food or rebuilding. >> we had to gather food, we have to gather water. we had to make anything out of anything that we have left. >> food now arrives daily from thousands of miles away. the challenge is moving it just a few more miles to those who need it most. now, as to predisaster planning, the president said that the neighboring town had a few hundred casualties with the extensive evacuations where tacloban did not. they inadvertently evacuated people into the disaster zone, to the convention center where the roof collapsed and people died. the president may have had a point, but it doesn't explain

the federal government's chaotic and initial slow response. >> william, thanks so much. >> of course, you know, it's such an overwhelming and heartbreaking tragedy. we americans are a very generous and open-hearted people. so if you would like to help those affected by typhoon haiyan, we have compiled a list of groups assisting with recovery and rebuilding. all you have to do is head to the website, foxnews.com to see how you can provide comfort and assistance. it is amazing. >> thousands of syrian refugees are streaming into neighboring leban lebanon. the u.n. is saying they're freeing pitch battles between government forces and opposition fighters. they have overwhelmed lebanon since the uprising began nearly three years ago. lebanese officials estimate there are currently 1.4 million syrians who have fled and are now living in their country. the white house is saying that, quote, the u.s. is getting close to a possible deal on the nuclear issue with iran.

that announcement comes just days before another round of high-level talks in geneva this week. benjamin netanyahu is also reacting to the news. he's telling his cabinet members just a short time ago, quote, i hope we will be able to convince our friends in the coming week and the days to follow to reach a better deal. it's possible because iran is under economic pressure and the continuation of this pressure and even increasing it can lead to a much better result of a diplomatic and peaceful solution. will a deal be what the world hopes for or an ireversible gift? john bolton joins us as he always does about this time on sunday morning. good morning. >> good morning, eric. >> meeting round two in geneva in a couple days. what do you expect to happen? >> this time, there will be an agreement. what happened last weekend with secretary of state kerry personally on the scene,

supervising the negotiations was a debacle. a humiliation for the obama administration. whether the cause of that failure was the french suddenly getting tough on iran or iran refusing to make key concessions really doesn't matter. i think unfortunately, as bad as the deal that was being discussed last weekend was, the deal they will agree this coming week is going to be worse. because secretary kerry will have made concessions to make sure that this time they can declare success. the administration says, oh, but it's just an interim deal and it's not really what the final arrangement will look like. well, i tell you, that's whistling past the grave yard. once you made key concessions as this deal apparently will, very hard to take them back. iran will get what it wands, relief from sanctions. we will get essentially nothing but a pause that iran will not slow iran's program down at all. >> they talk about suspended the nuclear program for six months, but look, six u.n. security

counsel resolutions demanding suspension, they're not doing that, they're not destroying one centrifuge. they're not closing the plutonium facility. what are we getting out of the deal if it keeps all of this still in tact. >> next to nothing. let's be clear about the washington style words being used. the administration said the deal will quote/unquote freeze the iranian nuclear programs deal. most people think it will stop it. but what the administration means is the program won't continue to increase. this is like omb talking about budgets. the program, the enrichment activity, will continue at its present level under the deal. it simply will not expand. but continuing it at its present level means iran builds up more and more low-enriched uranium which after just a few weeks more of enrichment will be at weapons grade levels.

this is not a freeze. this is simply holding the level of enrichment constant. nothing said about the manufacture of centrifuges, nothing about testing new centrifuges, getting ready to insert uranium into them. this is what prime minister netanyahu of israel last week called the deal of the century for iran. >> israel, as you know, had been sending officials here to the u.s. to lobby congress against this. you have to understand why. according to the iea, they have 431 pounds of enriched uranium. you need 550 pounds to build one bomb, and the center for international science and security said they could have a bomb in a month and a half. >> let's be clear, i think the iaea is doing a good job, but when it reports how much low-enriched uranium iran has, it's reporting on what it knows about, declared nuclear sites to which it has access. if there's anything else going on in iran or if they're

cooperating with north korea, there may be a lot more activity, a lot more enriched uranium than we know about. what we're about to give away here, as you noted a moment ago, is a position that europe, the international community as a whole, has held for ten years. that iran has to stop all enrichment activity, all enrichment-related activity. we're about to give that up. you can call that an interim deal if you wunt, but it will establish the principle that iran can legitimately enrich uranium and that's a path unobstructed for iran to nuclear weapons. >> what does that mean? >> iran can weaponize in a time and moanner of its choosing. it sends a signal not just to israel about how much danger it's in, but to the arab friends in the region, the arabs, the saudis, that the united states has essentially given up on trying to stop iran. and they will draw the

appropriate conclusion that they need to look after themselves. i think this is the beginning, popen potentially, of a huge amount of proliferation in the east. >> a warning from john bolton this morning. next sunday, we'll do monday or sunday-morning quarterbacking depending on what deal is announced. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> ambassador, thank you as well. >> there's severe weather now threatening parts of our country. a significant chance of tornadoes as well. this is serious business. we want to tell you about the areas most at risk. plus, president obama's push to save insurance policies cancelled due to his health care law. sounds like good news for those affected, but it could create massive headaches for the insurance industry and consumers. what the fallout could be straight ahead. hi honey, did you get e toaster cozy?

welcome back, everybody. health insurance industry leaders are weighing in now on the president's health care fix. which would save insurance policies canceled due to the president's new law. well, one of them is the president and ceo of america's health insurance plans, and today on fox news sunday, she said the changes could potentially destabilize the markets and lead to higher premiums for consumers. >> when you set rules in place and an industry meets them and then the rules are changed, that creates the kind of problems that senator nelson talked about. we're focused on trying to address those problems and moving forward. we have a policy disagreement, and we're going to work. we continue to work with the white house and with the administration. we're going to continue to do that because we have a shared goal of getting people covered and most importantly getting people covered affordably. >> let's talk about it with the anchor of fox news sunday, chris

wallace. good morning to you. >> good morning to you, jamie. >> it sounds to me, and we know that markets don't like to be destabilized, that all consumers should be paying attention to this because even if you don't participate in obama care, you could end up paying more. >> oh, absolutely. yeah, i mean, the point is, and you know, there have been a lot of metaphors used for it, but obama care, and its effect on the whole health insurance industry is like a sweater. you start to pull a thread and suddenly the whole sleeve falls off. the idea is if, and a lot of companies procedure won't be able to reinstate the millions of canceled policies, but if they do, the people who own the policies, most of them, are younger, healthier people. they're going to go into those markets and therefore, the premiums for the older, sicker people in the obama care exchanges where they have all these added benefits like no ban for pre-existing conditions, they're going to have to pay higher premiums. it all is interwoven. you have to remember, when she

talked about senator nelson, that's ben nelson, the former senator at the head of the national association of insurance commissioners, state regulators for these companies. they spent three years thinking obama care was going to be the law and building up a structure to deal with that. now, with the president's news conference on thursday, that all goes out the window. >> chris, this has reached truly crisis proportions. is there any indication from your interviews that it's going to go back in the direction it was intended to? >> no, i mean, they're just dealing with what the president has told them. and some companies, some regulators have said they're just not going to play. they're not going to reinstate these policies. they have gone too far. there are other companies and other state insurance commissioners who have said they are going to try to reinstate them. again, even if you get policies reinstated, that means a lot of people who obama care was counting on, the obama administration was counting on joining the exchanges and

joining the risk pool and providing some balance for the older, sicker people, the younger, healthier people who would pay benefits, pay premiums but probably not demand a lot benefits, that's going to change, and the premiums that have been set forth next year m no longer work because the cost will be too great. it's a very complicated thing. it's like one of those house of cards. you can't pick one card out and expect the house to stand. no, it all crumbles. >> i have 30 seconds, chris. i want to tease everything you have on today. doesn't karen think it's ironic that the people who were supposed to be covered are now scrambling with not being covered? >> well, no. she said -- i asked her, did the president, when he was running around saying, if you want to keep your plan, can you, because they had read the law. they knew. she said, i don't want to get into a fight about it, but the clear implication was they did know that the president couldn't keep that promise. >> that's fascinating. do not miss fox news sunday.

weather center. rick, how dangerous are the warnings? >> we get these days three to five times a year. we have only had one other day with a high risk issued by the storm prediction center this year. i will tell you right now, everybody is windy across the ohio valley, through the plains and great lakes. solid winds of 25 to 35, maybe 45 miles per hour farther towards the north. these are southerly winds so it's bringing in juicy, moist air from the south and a jet stream howling. the winds coming at different speeds and different directions are going to cause, i think, a severe weather outbreak later on today. we have our first tornado watch box for much of the state of illinois. goes down to st. louis, up throughout milwaukee and madison, whisk wiv. you'll also notice right there, called a particularly dangerous situation watch. that's when we think a very elevated chance for strong and dangerous tornadoes, not small,
