with former senate majority leader tom daschle. his approval rating on health care reform keeps falling. an abc news poll finds less than half of the questions -- those questioned approved of his handling of health care, down from 57% in april. 50% now disapprove. major garrett is on the north long for us. why tom daschle, and why today? >> the president needs friends wherever he can find them. not only was tom daschle was going to be the head of health and human services, but even before that, during transition, and there was consideration of making tom daschle obama's chief of staff. he did not get the job, and for that reason, there has been a little bit of distance between the white house and tom daschle recently. now they are bringing him back in the foiled a bid to help on communications and key

legislative strategy. the reason tom daschle was continued to be secretary before tax problems knocked him out was because he knows everyone in the senate very well and could help put deals together. one thing we will talk about today is his ideas. jane: what are you hearing about what the white house is actually saying privately about where this whole debate is going? >> periodically, the white house will conduct strategy sessions with sympathetic democrats who are on the outside, trying to amplify the message. there was one yesterday. among the points was that nothing has changed, if the president still wants a bipartisan resolution -- the president still wants a bipartisan resolution but is willing to go it alone. there was also a message that in

september of the white house will try and refrain and refocus its message -- in september, the white house will try and reframe and refocus the message. we have all been told to stay tuned. thank you. jon: the end of the road for cash for clunkers. the program will end monday. it allowed customers to trade in gas guzzlers for new, fuel- efficient cars, and receive up to a 5 -- $4,500 taxpayer rebate. the funds to pay for it is running out of gas. $3 billion expected to last until labor day is gone now. so what do dealers think about the program? joining us is general sales manager for south shore honda in new york. has it been good for you? >> yes, it has. it has been excellent and

brought in customers. jon: and yet, we hear the paperwork has been sent back, they put out money that they are not getting rebates for from the government. have you had that happen? >> that is correct. everything is pending. we have not gotten paid yet. jon: how much money are we looking at? >> we have 45 deals submitted and have not received one dime yet from the government. so as of today, i'm telling everyone, do not take any more deals. the program does not end until monday, but the automobile eagle -- automobile dealers association says that 3 billion has already been exhausted. based on that number, i am not taking other deals. i hope i get paid on what i submitted, but for future deals,

no money is left. jon: what do you say if someone asks for the program today? >> i will apologize, but the government has not given us the funds. jon: you started out by saying it has been a good program for you. >> it has been. we have generated so much business in august. business is up 55%. if we get up and out now, we will have a great month. we still have future business. it has been getting better as time goes on, so i am not worried about that. jon: i guess people like free money. >> yes, they do. and it is bringing us business. people are bringing in clunkers and getting new cars, so it is new business. jane: speaking of money, on wall street, the dow has been a

pretty big, 135 points. good news on the housing front is driving this. july home sales posted the biggest increase in a decade, rising 7.2%, the fourth increase in a row thanks in part to first-time home buyers taking advantage of the tax credit which will expire in fall. however, price was down from a year ago. if you are looking for a job, try morgan stanley. the wall street powerhouse is looking to add 400 traders and salespeople as they try to reverse three straight quarters of losses. jon: a plane crashed trying to land at teterboro airport this morning. both on board survived. they suffered burns but managed to walk away from the flaming wreckage of the twin-engined beechcraft. they are both being treated at a local hospital, and one is in critical condition.

teterboro is the same airport where a plane took off from this month before colliding with a helicopter above the hudson river, killing nine people. jane: a mother accused of killing her to -- year-old daughter is making a court experience -- a mother accused of killing her two-year-old daughter is making her court appearance. casey anthony is pleading not guilty. her attorney says that police never searched the area where the body was found. casey's father, george, showed up, interrupting a news conference. here is the videotape. he later apologized for storming into the news conference uninvited. jon: he is charged with his wife's murder in california. reality tv contestant ryan alexander jenkins on the run since the nude body of jasmine

fiore found in a dumpster. police are revealing even more disturbing details. what is the latest? >> this case has really taken on a gruesome twist. as you mentioned, if police -- police said earlier they found her body, naked, stuffed into a suitcase and a trash bin. she had also had her teeth and fingers removed, and her husband, ryan jenkins, has been charged with her murder. yesterday there was an emotional press conference, and her ex- boyfriends spoke out. take a listen to what he had to say. >> brian jenkins is an animal for what he has done to jasmine.

it is unspeakable. it is just not right, and i appreciate your help. >> police believe her fingers and teeth were removed to make identifying her body more difficult for them. the u.s. marshal's office says that they will leave no stone unturned in the search for ryan jenkins. jon: have police mentioned a possible motive? >> they have not talked about a motive, but we know that the relationship was very violent and tumultuous. they had only met in march in vegas, getting married a couple days later, and their marriage was annulled a couple months later. there was a lot of fighting, and brian jenkins has a history of violence. he has an assault charge in canada, and a domestic battery charger in the united states for hitting fiore.

we know there was a lot of violence in the relationship. he could currently be in canada, where he is from. he could have made the 1,000 mile journey from southern california to the canadian border, because that is where his car and boat were found, and an eye witnesses saw somebody matching his description at the border. police believe he could have walked across into canada. one more serious floating around, and that is that brian jenkins happens to have a wealthy father who is developing a luxury resort in honduras. so there is speculation that perhaps he is on his way to central america. the police are saying they believe he could be in canada. jon: thank you. jane: held up at knifepoint. we will show you the tape and tell you about the key evidence that could bring these people to justice. plus, they put their lives on the line for all of us.

>> i am harris faulkner at the breaking news desk, and what you are looking at now is a suspect giving himself up after spending quite a bit of time on a rooftop in los angeles. he is one of four suspects after a walgreen's in van nuys was knocked off this morning. three suspects got off on the freeway. he was on the roof, talking on a cellular phone. they were not sure if he were jumping -- if he was going to jump. then, all of a sudden, just a

couple of minutes ago, the rooftop situation ended, with this guy giving himself up. when you see how many people responded, you can understand why this guy may have looked down, seen at the ground, seen all the police, and thought, "is friday -- "it is friday, i give up." jane: on this surveillance video, you see the man entered the store -- you see the men entering the store. they hold a knife up to the clerk. they got away with $200 and a pack of cigarettes. police found the knife, and they hope it will help them solve the case. jon: getting back to our wounded veterans that have given so much to the country. a nonprofit group called "homes

for troops" is fixing up houses and volunteering their services. the house behind to being built right now -- who gets to call it home? >> it is for a returning veteran who lost both of his legs. sgt cameron crouch struggles with mobility issues because he has two prosthetic legs. luckily, he was specially selected by the group to receive a home, and it is tailored to his needs. there is an elevator, as well as a shower that he can roll his wheelchair into. jon: the soldiers, i guess, do not have to pay a dime for these homes. how do they get the money?

>> that is right. all of these folks here, and there were 91 volunteers yesterday, doesn't are here today, everything from the volunteers to see to the materials you see being used, even the land, it is all donated. once again, the sergeant will own this home free and clear, allowing him to focus on other things, like starting school, which he will do monday. jon: construction moves pretty fast with 91 people. how long before he gets the keys and gets to move in? >> believe it or not, everything you see here has been constructed just since yesterday. 24 hours, this entire home will be weatherproof. we're hoping that the roof will be on before rain starts later on this afternoon. the windows will also be in.

but the inside will take about three months to six months to finish. i did speak to the sergeant earlier today, and he said to expect him to be here with a sleeping bag once the roof is on. he wants to sleep in his new home as soon as possible, even if there is no roof. jane: speaking of veterans, we have heard plenty about the bonuses on wall street. there is a growing bonuses scandal inside the veterans administration. the inspector general says thousands of technology workers receive $24 million in bonuses, some under questionable circumstances, just as veterans faced hardships. a thorough review is going underway for these bonuses. jon: she disappeared in north georgia, out on a walk near her

parents' home. her boyfriend told us yesterday that he is sure she was abducted while on the phone with him. he thinks she is alive. does your mouthwash work in six different ways? introducing listerine total care. everything you need... to strengthen teeth, help prevent cavities, and kill germs. introducing 6 in 1 listerine total care. the most complete mouthwash. this is a honda pilot. and this is the all- new chevy traverse. it has more cargo space than pilot, including the most space behind the third row. and traverse beats honda on highway gas mileage too.

jon: police are hoping the release of a video of fights between girls helps them round up suspects. we cannot play the video because of the sound, there is offensive language. you can make up one adult wielding a belt. at one point, a girl is tackled, beaten, and kicked. the 34-year-old woman behind the wheel is charged with assault

with a deadly weapon. at least one of the girls has been apprehended. they are looking for more. jane: investigators in georgia have stopped the ground search for kristi cornwell, who disappeared, but they are still continuing an effort. she was on a cellular phone with her boyfriend while taking a walk near her parents' home. he heard her cry out, and the line went dead. at the phone was found nearby. her mother is on the phone with us right now. authorities ending the ground search -- does that mean they are zeroing in on something, they could not afford resources anymore? what does that tell you? >> that is the normal thing they do. they searched 3 miles, 4 miles from the scene. at that point if they have not found somebody, they scaled back the local resources -- a scale

back resources -- they scaled back resources -- they scale back resources and follow up on phone tips. we are not upset about that. it just gives us more hope that she is out there somewhere and we will find her ok. jane: her boyfriend feel strongly that she is still alive. do you? >> yes, i do. it is in my heart, a feeling i'm getting that she is alive. jane: her boyfriend said yesterday that he has been cleared, he has taken a polygraph test and was not involved in any way. do you agree with that assessment? >> i do not believe he had anything to do with it at all. i feel real good about that. he was far away, so i feel that

he was clear. jane: he was a couple hours away, in atlanta. she has a 15-month-old son. how is he doing? >> he is holding up. he is surrounded by love and support, making it the best he can. i just encourage everyone at this point to go to her website, steady her picture, and look around wherever they go. in a restaurant, in a vehicle, just walking by a car. she could be in the vehicle. they might spot her. so i just ask everybody to keep looking. not just in this area, but all over. jane: we have been posting the

phone number and website information on our website, foxnews.com. our thoughts and prayers continue to be with you. >> thank you so much. we appreciate everything you are doing to help us find her. jon: a breach of national security might have taken place right inside guantanamo bay prison. why the cia is concerned that some 9/11 conspirators may have gotten their hands of classified information while they were at n

jane: outrage at the cia this hour, with word that suspected terrorists may have been given crucial information about covert officers. and that may not be the worst of it. jon: keeping an eye on hurricane bill, threatening dangerous conditions for beaches. jane: from the town hall to the national mall -- will this health care debate sparked a march on washington? -- sparked a march on washington -- spark a march on washington? jon: a crowd in libya last night gave a hero's welcome to the convicted bomber of pan am 103,

over lockerbie, scotland. 270 people died in the attack, many of them americans. the bomber only served eight years of his sentence and received a compassionate release. >> these pictures have been found offensive by both of the british government as well as the u.s. government, but, in fact, if you go behind the scenes a little, it appears there were only a couple of hundred people at the airport when he landed. an associated press report just came out saying that originally, thousands of people had been bused to the airport, there had been a band, a disk jockey, and

more celebration. in the 11th hour, the people were whisked away by libyan officials, which may mean that the libyan government was on the late side, but in the end, taking heed to warnings by gordon brown and barack obama who had expressed concern that the bomber not be given a hero's welcome. the way the officials deal with him will be more important than the public reaction, but the libyan press has been used on this all day -- mute on this all day. they are covering sports, and today is the first day of ramadan in libya, so they are covering that. going forward, it is going to be important to wait and see, according to officials here and in washington. senator john mccain, who, together with senators lieberman

and collins was on a recent delegation to libya -- this was about 10 days ago. they were looking at possible deals on non-lethal defense equipment, because they are very slow but steady in reprint creating -- reintegrating libya to the western world, and there are a lot of deals that people in the u.s. and europe would like to do with libya. that said, mccain and other senators issued a statement that i have here and i will read. they say, "during our meeting with libyan leaders, we expressed our strong opposition to megrahi's release and warned of damage in relations. we also made it clear that should he be released, the libyan government should handle his return in a fashion that strengthens our growing ties of friendship, rather than undermining them."

it seems that this situation has the potential to reveal a setback to what has been improving u.s.-libya ties. an ambassador has been installed in tripoli for six months and been quite active, and there have been a lot of visits, but this is a sensitive issue. megrahi has been kept out of the public eye today, and people will be hoping he is kept out in days and weeks going forward in order that this very tense and hurtful return, too many people, can be handled in that the most diplomatic way and not become a major issue. jon: a lot of people feel the same way. thank you. jane: 38,000 of you have voted so far, and 95% say that you do

not agree with this position. you can take a poll on our web sites -- you can take a poll on our website, foxnews.com. it is really easy to do. jon: both camps claiming victory in the afghan election. each says they have won enough votes to avoid a runoff in october. final results will not be in until tuesday at the earliest. millions of afghans turned out to cast ballots, despite threats to attack polling stations and retaliate against those who did vote. prosecutor jane: is are looking into claims -- jane: prosecutors are looking into claims that gitmo detainees may have been shown photographs of secret cia operatives. jennifer griffin is on its. can we confirm that the justice department is investigating what

is happening? >> yes, the story came out in the "washington post," a lead story, and we have been able to confirm with a lead official and intelligence officer that this investigation has been going on for six weeks to eight weeks. they are mentioning three defense attorneys who were assigned to defend some of the 9/11 co-conspirators' down in gitmo. some of those five co- conspirators decided to forgo representation, but at least two of them are being represented by military defense. they are also being investigated about the john adams project, part of the aclu that has come together to defend the detainees. what they are being accused of, the investigation surrounds whether they revealed names and photographs and identities of covert cia operatives involved in the interrogation programs at

cia presence overseas. -- cia prisons overseas. it is a controversy. they were not operatives at the time, so no laws may have been broken, but it's certainly raises questions about whether they put the lives of those officers at risk showing photographs to al qaeda defendants. the aclu and john adams project, run by human rights activists, have pieced together names from open source information and sarouk detective work on their own, the names of operatives to that were involved in those prison interrogations' -- interrogations, and they came up with the names of medical workers, some of whom accompanied the prisoners on their flights.

then they sent their own people outside the homes of the cia folks and took pictures of them. they took the pictures to the prisoners in gitmo and said, "were these the people who interrogated you?" the aclu says they thought they were trying to help build a defense for their client, but what they were doing, in fact, is likely revealing the identities of those who work for the cia, which in the case of a covert operative, is illegal. jane: thank you very much. we know you are on it and you will update us. jon: extreme weather right now. hurricane bill is a category 3 storm with winds of about 115 miles an hour. even though they are not expected to make land fall,

there is cause for concern. >> no surfing for you this weekend. stay out of the water. we are joking around, but seriously, we will see waves from 10 feet to 15 feet across the eastern seaboard. in some cases, like cape cod, a parts of 20 feet, and bermuda, 20 feet to 30 feet. this is a snapshot of what the satellite seas, and when the sun comes out, you can really see how well-defined this storm is. there is fox that this could be undergoing another rapid intensification face, a replacement cycle, in which the inner eyewall takes over for the amateur, usually indicating we are seeing some strengthening against. this storm has not traveled the

deepest waters of its journey, so we could see a category 4 storm again. our fingers are crossed that this storm will move west of bermuda and east of cape cod, just between those two areas. of course, nova scotia could take a direct hit, and any wabble east or west will change the path of a little bit, so we want people to keep in tune. we will keep you updated as soon as the latest advisories come out. jane: town halls about health care have been getting pretty loud. now, one member of congress wants people to put toward reform on the streets. also, a new rehab center is opening up, but you do not have to be strung out to get in. were you sign up if you are addicted to internet.

jon: progressive democrats are up in arms right now, insisting that health care reform absolutely must include a government run insurance option. now they are planning a march on washington to mobilize public support for the plan, the so- called public option. a member of the progressive caucus is calling on colleagues in congress to endorse such a march. is this another million man march? is that what you would like to see? >> it is critically important that the federal government handle crop insurance, term insurance, flood insurance. no one thinks that is bad. but we have people without health insurance. we need to make sure there is at least a public option available that is affordable for you.

we need to have a public option , and supporting my friend, robert rice, let's come to washington september 13 and make sure that congress understands the american public understands that we need an option. it is not a government takeover. let's make sure that you can -- if you cannot ride in a limousine, that there is mass transit available. that is what the public option is about. jon: there is the argument that the government can undercut competition and drive private insurers out of business. >> who provides insurance for crops, pensions, flood damage? when the private market does not

work, the government should step in. and it is not working for 15 million people in our country. most people get coverage through employers. but you have people working for small businesses in situations where their company does not provide health care, and there should be a situation where they can pay a premium and by health care from the government. i think we all know that it is a necessity. that is why i am saying, let's show it on september 13. jon: president obama makes this his priority, you have democrats all over the house. if it were a necessity, don't you think it would have been done by now? >> if your wife or mine was pregnant today and wanted insurance, she would not be able to get it. it would be a pre-existing condition. we have to make sure there is an

option available they cannot buy on the public market. all this talk about where democrats are, we will see in september. and the house bill will include a public auction -- option. i believe if we see americans stand up september 13, it will improve things in the senate. i have heard chris dodd, senator rockefeller, and others talk about support for a public option. so there is support in the senate. jane: help if you are addicted to the internet. let's get to courtney friel. >> your shopping, gaming, texting, blogging, all of this taking over your life? you can go to the first rehab for internet junkies.

all the help called in to get people out. as i learn more, you will know it first. jane: time to get some financial help. you sent us york financial questions, and we have the answers. roseanne is joining us. it jumps right in. you close out your credit card accounts -- does the credit company still have the right to charge interest and penalties even though the account is closed? >> absolutely. once the account is closed, interest and fees will continue to mount up. but good news. in recent weeks, i personally called a number of creditors from retail outlets to credit card companies, and the tip of the date is that once that account is closed, they are much more willing witto work with

you on reducing the interest rate. jane: this is an interesting one. >> in most states, you are not responsible for the debts of the child unless you have agreed to be responsible. a debt collector can call you once to ask for location information about your child, and if you are receiving harassment, that is not appropriate and you can send a cease and desist nodus, meaning

[captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- jane: a muslim teenager who converted to christianity in this country now fears that her own father will kill her. at a court in florida they will decide whether she will be sent back. the girl says she is so fearful of her father's reaction to her conversion to christianity that she ran away from home in ohio and fled to florida. she is begging a judge there not to force her to go home. we expect the decision today, but it does not look good for her. phil, supporters of this girl

are asking the governor to intervene in this case because it is so dire. will he? >> yes, gov. florida gov. charlie crist is taking action. he is talking to the department of families, as well as the legal team, going down to tallahassee from orlando to have the hearing. basically, the governor does not want the runaway sent back to ohio until all of these allegations are resolved to his comfort. we have a girl claiming that if she goes back, she will be the victim of an honor killing because her parents are muslim and she is now muslim -- christian. you have for parents saying at this is not the case, we want her home, she is being brainwashed by this christian couple, the pastors of the

global revolution church in orlando. she ran away from columbus, got on a greyhound bus, called the pasteur, and she was staying with him for several days. he wholeheartedly supports her contention that she is in danger for her life. there is no evidence that her life is in danger, that it was threatened, that she has been abused before. ohio's department of judge and families do not have any reports of abuse. so we have a 17-year-old girl claiming this, and at 3:15 we will have a meeting with

potentially hundreds attending. jane: we want to know what you think. should the teenager be sent home? jon: the powerful category 3 storm with 120 mile an hour winds could get even stronger. there are concerns that it will produce storms on the highway. >> important to note thatpeople need to stay out of the water, including my husband, who likes to surf. he is at home, hopefully. in all seriousness, keep kids out of the water.

even upwards of 20 feet, upwards of 30 feet in some places. some of the warmest water is about to travel in, so you will see a little bit more intensification as the storm continues its northwest path, and eventually, moving to the north, it will get caught in a trough. there, the computer models are coming to a good agreement, which is excellent news for canada and nova scotia. this is a very large storm. wind of almost 300 miles from the center of the storm, and hurricane force winds are 115 miles an hour. we have a new advisory coming out at 2:00 p.m., and hurricane

hunters are investigating the storm, giving us more information to put into our computer models. we could see this intensify again as it travels the waters heading towards bermuda. and then a category one, scooting very close to the canadian border. here's what we can expect this weekend. 10 ft. to 15 foot waves. that could be conservative if it moves to the west. significant beach erosion, especially across coastal massachusetts. jane: positive news today from ben bernanke, saying that the economy is on the verge of recovery. he made those comments during the annual fed conference. he said he sees good signs, like a more than 7% jump in home sales, and that optimism is

certainly being felt on wall street today. the dow is up almost 130 points. we will keep watching it for you. jon: the popular cash for clunkers program is going to end on monday. that is two weeks earlier than planned. there is no doubt that it provided a boost to the industry and a good deal for consumers, but the question lingers for dealership earners. we're at a dealership in silver spring, maryland. the program has been wildly popular, but there are pros and cons. >> there are. traffic year has increased, and i mean consumer traffic. we have watched people coming in with orders and brand new cars, and for the most part, it has been one of the most stimulus successful programs in history.

in the case of shunned i -- condyle -- hyuindai, they have hired more workers. there are a lot of things that the administration points to as a great success. but a lot of them on capitol hill are going to wait for input. it does close on monday, so this dealership was actually contemplating bowling out because of the reimbursement problem relative to rebates. in this particular network of dealerships, they have given some are in the neighborhood of $5.5 million in rebates and only been reimbursed for eight individual rebates, to the tune of $16,000 or something like that. it has caused massive headaches around the country, with dealers ships dropping out. and general motors has actually

begun fronting the money to dealers to cover rebate costs because they are now getting reimbursed in time by the government. -- not getting reimbursed in time by the government. what happens when 80% of the cars coming in are american domestic made cars in detroit, but 77% of the cars going back out our imports? american car drivers are trading for foreign imports, and that concerns domestic auto dealerships. jon: the first billion went out the door in a nanosecond, then congress voted in a couple billion more. is there any chance that the program will be revived yet again? >> they have to take a look at it. certainly, it was explosive. the first billion was not enough, they added another $2 billion, and after five blistering weeks, they're closing it down.

having said that, there is a lot more business that the companies could do in this particular case. their sales are up about 25% over the free program, so they see a lot of benefit. they would just like to seek reimbursement in a more timely fashion. traffic on the internet is so intense that have the kind they cannot get on the computer to take care of processing. jon: thank you. jane: harris is on the scene, watching the evacuation of the credentials center. >> there are now reports of rescue going on in the 30th floor of this 52-story building. they are trying to reach someone, and all i could get is a medical condition. i do not know what that means,

but they were trying to reach those people. this was reportedly going on on the second floor, and it has forced the evacuation of hundreds of people. this is the prudential center, on boston's back bay, on boils and street. they have a power failure. not using the elevator, it will take some time to get out. that is what we have been seeing, and every now and then, you see people coming out. no reports of injuries.

allah jon: jon: an update on a nightmare flight in minnesota.

passengers trapped overnight on the continental flight in rochester. the pilot played to let her passengers out of the jet into the terminal. it was the only staffed airline at the time. how department of transportation said she was turned down, saying that security had gone home for the day. now, officials say that that was wrong, and passengers could have stayed in a separate area. all 47 people were stuck on the tarmac for more than five hours with no food and with a tiny jet's toilet filled to capacity. ray lahood said that there was a complete lack of common sense here. no word yet from the airline or its parent company. jane: we want to take you to california for the latest in the disappearance of the 5-year-old boy with cerebral palsy. investigators are looking at a text message.

it threatens to leave him alone on a train platform with his little sister just 10 days before the little boy banishes. the message reads in part, i will watch her, but he will be out on the train, and it is your responsibility. he is reported to have disappeared near a shoe store while his mother worked. take a listen. take a listen. >> right now, it is a missing persons case, and the main focus of this investigation is to find campbell. jane: he has not necessarily been ruled out as a suspect?

is that what you're saying? >> we have done some investigation, and we keep an open mind so we do not rule out anybody. jane: it sounds like he has been cooperative with you. is that right? >> yes, we have been in contact with him and jennifer every day since hasani is gone missing, and he has been very cooperative. our main focus is trying to find hassani campbell. he has taken eight polygraph test. i am not going to disclose the results -- he has taken a polygraph test. jane: his relationship with the mother -- what do you know about that?

>> during our investigation, we have no reports of domestic violence happening. reports of that are inaccurate. jane: it has been reported that the father voiced misgivings about caring for a disabled child. can you answer that? >> i cannot go over what he is saying to us or the media. right now, our focus is finding the missing 5-year-old out there. someone knows what happened to him, and they need to call us. jane: he was going to the shoe store where the mother works, and he left little boy in the car. would it be easier for him to get in? was it a crowded parking lot? were there witnesses in the area at the time?

>> we are still trying to determine how long he leftism in the car. there were not a lot of people out during that time. so we're talking to witnesses as we speak. we are not getting tips like in a regular high-profile case, and we do not know what we're not getting calls. we get a lot of calls about opinions, but we need people who called -- who call us. jane: hopefully, his picture will spark something and somebody. any information, is a toll-free number right there. please call the oakland police department. jon: what a cute little boy.

jane: he cannot go too far, because he has braces on his feet. jon: president obama is steadfast in his push for health reform, particularly in regard to the public auction, government-run health insurance. but polls are not going his way. today, he held a meeting with tom daschle to turn things around. (mom) soon, we'll be doing homework, getting up early, packing lunches and running for the bus. and we're ready for it. because we took all our lists and we went to walmart. since walmart checks other store's prices... i didn't have to. that means we got home in time... for just a little more summer -- and for one last night of lightning bugs. back to school costs less at walmart.

>> i have just gone off the phone. i have been calling stores inside the prudential center to get a feel for which areas are being evacuated. apparently, parts of the center have poured out with evacuees.

we have firefighters going floor-by-floor after water, some sort of water leak, and water was pouring, thousands of gallons, according to witnesses, somewhere in the second floor. we have no cause for this. we do not know what caused the leak or the water. but it has caused power outages throughout the center. this is in back bay, on boils and street, a very large structure. i have been going store-by- store, getting an idea of which stores were evacuated first. there are some that have not evacuated away from the sheraton hotel area here. that is what i have just learned. but there have at least in some reports of one rescue on the 30th floor, no injuries reported, but some medical condition, and firefighters in a heated situation, because the air conditioning is off.

the main concern reportedly right now are conditions. jon: president obama meeting with tom daschle, last-minute strategy before he heads on vacation. but a new poll today says the battle to sell health care reform only seems to be getting tougher. according to the latest poll, 50% of americans now disapprove of the way it the president is handling the issue, the highest number of disapprovals so far. back in april, only 29% disapproved. take a look preview can see at help sentiment has shifted. -- you can see how sentiment has shifted. they want them to not give up on public principles.

they accuse some of deliberately trying to torpedo reform. let's talk about it with maria cardona, former senior adviser to hillary clinton. denny diaz is a former communications director for the rnc. did these polls suggest that the more americans find out, the last like the plan? >> no. this president is very willing to be using his political capital. i think everyone understands this is a messy process, and during the august recess, a lot of misinformation has gone out there to the american people, and it has unfortunately fed into some of the disapproval.

what a lot of pollsters have found is that when you explain the key points that he is trying to make, people support what he is trying to do. jon: if they learn about the process, what happens? >> a majority disagrees, and the numbers are even worse with independence. you hear democrats, independent voters, and people around the country expressing their unease. look at conrad's comments. people across the spectrum are

expressing grave reservations about the way the a demonstration is going forward. it will only continue to hurt their numbers. i think that is proven at that point. jon: you grab those people in the middle, you make them happy. so why push for this thing that nancy pelosi says, that she has got to have a public option, which seems to be the more liberal position? >> but again, i think that is part of the misinformation that has gone out there. jon: it is not misinformation. nancy pelosi says it has got to be a house bill. >> that is right, but i'm talking about the public option is not the only thing in health

care reform. consumers must be protected. right now, you're able to be denied coverage for a pre- existing condition. if you are facing a life crisis. that is not the case if we are able to really reform our system. that would not be the case if the president has his way. the public option is just one piece of this, to make sure that insurers are giving consumers what they pay for. choices, options, consumer protection. that is what democrats are fighting for. i think democrats are saying no at their peril. the president wants this to happen in a bipartisan way, and that is what he will continue to focus on. jon: i know you are not a lawmaker, but people think it is unfair that insurance companies can drop you if you develop a life-threatening disease.

what is the republican solution to that? >> i think republicans are ready to work on issues like that. i note that republican senators are getting ready to discuss those issues and work with democrats. but ultimately, obama's problem is with members of his caucus. conrad and many other leadership members in the senate say he simply does not have the vote for a public option. the to what to talk about liability reform, portability. i think republicans stand before that, but at the end of the day, i do not think they will support legislation which is over one trillion dollars, which we cannot possibly pay for with a rising debt. that is the concern you are seeing across the country, and the administration is now a place where they will have to see if they can ram that through with democrat votes alone and put themselves in the position where they have essentially cut off any kind of compromise or real debate on this issue or

other issues as they move forward. jon: thank you both. jane: we will be talking with u.s. marshal jose hunt about the killer of the former swimsuit model whose body was found stuffed in a suitcase. have you heard what was done to cover up the crime? he is a former reality contestant, and he is the guy they are looking for. újúj i'm todd davis, and i'm here to prove just how safe...

jon: of public service announcement is getting a lot of feedback. it shows a young teenager texting and driving before a violent accident. they hope that students who see this do not do this behind the wheel. courtney is live for us in washington. >> this is software you can download, and application. you can download it onto your blackberry, and it stops you from text messaging. it literally stops your keyboard and you can i use it wants to hit 10 miles an hour. we had a representative in from

the company, and he explained it like this. >> you hit 10 miles an hour, and it sends you a customized message. >> like in a cab in new york city, "please buckle your safety belt." it is supposed to make it fun for teenagers, not being punitive, saying that you could be in a horrible car accident. it is supposed to make it cool. it sends a message to you want to your facebook or twitter like, "hey, i am driving a." if they try to contact you, it sends a message like, "dude, cool, let's not talk about this now. i am driving."

jon: thank you. jane: disturbing details in the death of a swimsuit model named swimsuitfiore. her fingers and teeth -- named jasmine fiore. her fingers and teeth were removed, presumably to help stumble identification of the body. brian jenkins -- ryan jenkins has been charged with her murder. it is believed that he let buena park california and went to washington state, dumping his car and taking a boat where he crossed into canada on foot. he is a canadian national. joining me now is the chief inspector for the u.s. marshals service. talk to me if you will about what progress you are making on finding him. you believe he is in canada?

>> we have not been able to confirm it, but we are working with the royal canadian mounted police and we have personnel that liaison with them on a regular basis. they are conducting a parallel investigation canada, looking for mr. jenkins. jane: do you have helpful witnesses? >> there have been a number of citizens that came forward describing a man fitting his description. it was obviously his car and boat trailer that were found. a man fitting his description was found on the boat, registered to him. so we do believe that it was him on the boat who fled. whether he got into canada or is still somewhere on the u.s. side, that is still to be determined. jane: i assume that you consider him to be dangerous.

>> yes, based on the crime and his previous history, we consider him a danger to others. we asked the public not to take direct action, just to contact local law enforcement. i cannot confirm that a gun was missing from the apartment. we do not have any information that he is armed, but in these cases, we want everybody to take every precaution. jane: if he is found there, getting him back to this country could prove difficult. as blog goes, canada could refuse to extradite him. >> yes, that is all part of the process that will go on after his apprehension. poll local district attorney in orange county, calif., has not made this a special circumstance case, which would invoke the death penalty. the warrant is for homicide, but not with special circumstances

at this time. that is something that our government will negotiate, along with the orange county district attorney's office after he is apprehended. jane: the u.s. marshals service is on the hunt. they will keep us updated. please let us know if anything develops. >> sure. we have issued a $25,000 reward for information leading to his arrest. jon: lawyers of the largest lutheran denomination of our -- are deciding whether or not to let homosexuals become pastors. they have already approved a statement on homosexuality. what is going on today? >> it is an emotional day this morning among delegates, whether to allow gays and lesbians to

lead in churches. conservatives say at the heart of this, is about the authority of the scripture stating that homosexual behavior is a sin. the sides have agreed to disagree, but it is the most contentious debate of modern protestantism, and both sides claim a moral high ground. take a look. >> none of us are supposed to have sexual relationships outside of marriage, and it is the authoritative source for all of our faith and life and teaching and preaching. >> god has given many gifts to many people, and god has called gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people into the ministry. when god opens doors, no one can close them, not even the evangelicals lutheran church of america and its policies. >> there will be more debate and a vote. jon: what is the potential

impact? >> there are about 5 million members, the largest protestant domination yet to tackle the issue. it has caused a split in the 2 million member episcopal church. catholic bishops have warned lutherans that this vote could impair their relationship with the catholic church. jane: now to the internet, where a classic is making a comeback. we're talking about polaroids. >> many people were sad to find out that the polaroid camera stopped production last year, but hard-core fans can still get their hands on them. i say hard-core fans, because there are only 700 left, and the trendy stores urban outfitters bought the last batch of the last model ever made, the polaroid won 600 classic, along with its type 79 film.

jane: baseball's most famous players may not be feeling a pinch, but fans are. the recession is making people think twice about having to a major league game. instead, many are getting their fix at minor league games. they are getting a whole lot of bang for their buck. john wanted to know if that was your old jersey. >> it is funny, pepperdine, where i played, had this same color combination. kind a coincidence. i was at fenway, and it is great to see a game, but you are facing serious money. whether it is a larger city or a small town, everybody is coming out to see minor league games. attendance figures are up big,

especially here in stockton, california. hit hard by a tough economy, small town america, like stockton, california, finds release and a pastime long known for in during america's ups and downs. >> i have a house for sale that is not moving. i wish it would. so i can come here and forget about it for a couple of hours. >> foreclosures are second highest in the country. out of work for a year, a trip to watch the minor league baseball team is a perfect break for her and her daughter. >> we can yell and scream and cheer on people who do have jobs, the ballplayers. [laughter] >> a family of four will spend less than $50 to come to a game like this, and it is good baseball.

lawyers are already in the big leagues. -- 10 players are already in the big leagues. >> is a great product. we certainly have had challenges, but we're doing well. >> another byproduct of this thing is that if you, six or seven years ago to stockton -- i am from northern california -- it was a bad area, rundown, warehouses. putting the stadium in really revitalizes the area. they have a new marina, and irina, and hotels. you bring people downtown for 70 games a year, and it becomes a great revitalization project, even in tough economic times. jane: plus, they have the best mascot's going. the cyclones, the sea dogs.

perfect for stockton. good to see you. thank you. jon: yesterday, he was a prisoner in scotland. today, he is a free man walking around in libya. what can the u.s. do now that the only person ever convicted in the bombing is free? will this affect our relationship with libya? .

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%a

[captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- jon: dealing person convicted in connection with the lockerbie bombing is back in libya. he landed yesterday to cheering crowds part. in the united states, many people are outraged about the release of a terrorist who

murdered 270 people. that outrage shows when you take a look at our poll. we ask you, do you agree with the decision? so far, a vast majority of you said you do not agree with it. something like 95% disapprove. how does this affect the united states relationship with libya? the two countries certainly have a history. in 1986, libyan agents are linked to a bombing in germany, a spot frequented by u.s. service members. three people died. more than 2 under 30 were hurt. in 1988, that is when pan am flight 103 exploded, killing all 270 people on board. in 2003, president george w. bush and british prime minister tony blair said that lydia gave

up weapons of mass destruction programs. where do we go from here? margaret thatcher was prime minister when flight 103 was bombed. this scene of libyans cheering a convicted terrorist who has been allowed to go home under this so-called compassionate release, what does that say to the world? >> it basically is gaddafi slapping the face of a wider international community. these are sickening scenes. he is a mass murderer. he was responsible for the brutal killing of 270 people. 180 of them were americans. we have seen absolutely abhorrent scenes in tripoli today. this mass murderer has been welcomed home as a hero.

there have to be consequences for this. gaddafi has tried to bring lydia back into the international fold. he has now taken a huge step backwards on this. i think there has to be a price to be paid for this. jon: his son was part of the official welcoming party. you would not get that kind of high-level dignitary without the colonel's say so. >> absolutely. this is all orchestrated at hands of colonel gaddafi. it is one of those most odious tyrannies on the face of the earth where human rights activists are routinely jailed and left to die in those prisons. this is a man who has no compassion whatsoever for anyone who opposes his regime. i think it is important that congress sends a clear message to libya condemning the actions

of colonel khadafy. we also have to consider placing lydia back on the state department's list of state sponsors of terrorists. lydia was removed from that list. that decision has to be reconsidered. also, we have to reconsider the issue of wider sanctions against libya as well. the former president of sudan remarks famously that colonel gaddafi was a man with a split personality, both of them evil. jon: they got off of that state sponsor of terrorist list when they gave up their nuclear weapons program. sometimes it seems like colonel gaddafi gave up just enough to get what he wanted. >> exactly. it was a very cynical ploy by colonel gaddafi. he has never expressed any remorse over the lockerbie bombing.

this is a man who does not accept responsibility for lydia's terrorist past. i do not think we should be trusting of colonel khadagaddaf. he is strongly opposed to what the united states and great britain are trying to do on the world stage. this is an individual who should not be brought back and from the cold. jon: thank you. jane: no one was expecting what happened next. that is a boat on the highway. a high-speed chase begins. we will show you in three minutes.

jane: this is not something you see every day on the highway. we will take you to connecticut where a man is behind bars, accused of stealing a motorboat and taking it down the highway.

the entire scene was caught on video. you can see the police are chasing a suspect. he had stolen that 32 foot boston whaler. this chase reached speeds of up to 95 miles per hour. he lost control of the thing and the boat went over. it ended up on its side. how much is this thing work? $175,000. it was stolen out of a boat dealers parking lot. jon: is there a cash for clunkers program for boats? jane: that man is behind bars. that is going to do it for us. have a great weekend, everybody. trace: this is "the live desk." i am trace gallagher. we
