looking for more evidence linking the brothers to the crime. had the men made it to new york mayor michael bloomberg said he in enough explosives to do serious damage. >> we don't know if we would have been able to stop the terrorists had they arrived from boston. we're thankful we didn't have to find out that answer. >> reporter: authorities say khar visited new york at least twice last year trying to determine exactly what he was doing in the city and whom he talked to. tsavraev might be facing more than just the federal charges. the local d.a. says he is building a case to charge the 19-year-old in the murder of officer sean collier. norah, charlie. >> don dahler thank you. now senior correspond respondent john miller former assistant fbi director. >> good morning. >> where is the investigation now, the new idea that new york may have been a target. >> new york may have been a target is something that came out yesterday. it was something we had a hint on very early on. they interviewed the carjacking
7:06 am
victim, the only word i could understand, as they were gathering money and filling up with gas is manhattan. that was an early focus. first he saidere going to go there to party, but later he said they were going to go there to use the rest of the bombs. >> why wasn't new york city told sooner? >> i don't understand the outrage. i'm a former deputy commissioner of the and an assistant director of the fbi. i have a balanced view of both agencies. this seems like a lot of gnashing of teeth over nonsense. two suspects one is dead the other in custody and says spontaneously we were going to go to new york. so it's hard to discern what the threat was. right after the bombing, new york flooded times square with a large force of police officers and maintained them. this guy is in a hospital. so -- >> we learned yesterday that a judge read him his miranda rights. they moved him this morning to the this prison. so he's in better health. is he still talking? still cooperative? >> no. from the time of the arraignment, norah when the

7:08 am
the t.i.d.e. list terrorist identity data mark environment. apparently created on a slow day in the acronym department of the terrorist community. when someone is on t.i.d.e. list, it will ping. there are 700,000 people on the list and they travel all the time. >> john, you will be back next hour to talk about some of the things the parties have been saying. >> very interesting people. >> very interesting people. after thousands of flight delays this week hope may be hours away. that's right late last night, a senate decision may smooth some of the political turbulence caused by massive spending cuts. the solution only is a ban dade. nancy cordes on capitol hill good morning. >> it's difficult to get all 100 senators to agree on anything even the time of day. late last night, all 100 accepted a bill that would end the forced furlough of air
7:09 am
traffic controllers. the house is expected to vote in a few hours. if it passes the crippling flight delays could soon be over. the senate held its last vote of the week and senators started to head home. >> something as difficult. >> four senators two democrats, two republicans, presented a plan that gives the transportation department the flexibility to move 250$250 million within accounts to help pay air traffic controllers and end the forced furloughs that were slowing the entire aviation system. >> business this is a common-sense solution. doesn't involve additional money. a one-time shift of unused money. >> reporter: the furloughs, a by-product of sequestration. as the flight delays mounted, roughly 1,000 per day, it became
7:10 am
clear that something had to change. >> it's very frustrating to see that nobody is willing to compromise and give in a little. that sdrooifzdrives me nuts. >> reporter: the administration could have avoided some of the furloughs, but didn't simplely to score political points. >> they knew this was coming they had 18 months to make their plan. it is out of selfishness and foolishness that they have chosen to irchose en ignore what was coming their way. >> the former head of ntsb mark rosenker says it lays in the hands of the house. >> we can get back to an efficient air system 100% of operations with air traffic controllers by next week. >> reporter: this solves one big problem, but opens up a pandora's box, now a number of members will start coming forward and asking why the department of transportation is getting special treatment?
7:11 am
when so many federal agencies are struggling to find funding under sequestration for everything from preschool slots to medical research. norah, charlie. for the first time the white house says chemical weapons have been used in syria's civil war. that's leading some to ask if the u.s. is ready to consider military action. right now, secretary of state john kerry is briefing house members behind closed doors on capitol hill. major garrett at the white house. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, charlie and norah. the white house says the evidence of syrian chemical weapons attacks is still too thin and president obama's redline has not been crossed. that means military intervention by the united states in the syrian civil war is not imminent, not even guaranteed but more study and investigation, however, is. defense secretary chuck hagel the first to confirm the startling news. he read from a prepared statement.
7:12 am
>> the syrian regime used chemical weapons on a small scale in syria. specifically sarin. >> reporter: he laced announcement with carefully crafted caveats. >> we have uncertainty with what was used what kind of chemical used, who used it, where it was used. >> john kerry said syria used chemical weapons twice last month, once near damascus and once in aleppo. victims appeared to have been gassed. president obama repeatedly said syria syria's use of chemical weapons would cross a red line and move u.s. military closer to intervention in the syrian civil war. >> a red line for us is we start saying a whole bunch of chemical weapons moved around or utilized that would change my calculus. >> reporter: top white house advisers insist the red line is not crossed. the white house says it needs more proof.
7:13 am
in its words "credible and corroborated facts" arizona senator john mccain, who has continuously pressed president obama to intervene, says mr. obama is ducking his own standard. >> the president of the united states said this would be a red line if they used chemical weapons. the president of the united states has now told us that they used chemical weapons. we must give the opposition the capability to drive out bar ash al-assad once and for all. >> reporter: u.s. intelligence says there is varying degrees of confidence that they used chemical weapons. british intelligence says persuasive information. definitive proof may be hard to find. >> major garrett, thank you. clarissa ward has reported extensively inside syria's war zone. talking with sources about the new reports and joins us from
7:14 am
washington. clarissa good morning. so you are familiar with all of this, the obama administration, insisting that syria did not cross the red line and yet for the first time they are admitting they believe that syria used chemical weapons on a small scale. how significant is that for the opposition? >> well, i think it's very significant here in the u.s. in terms of trying to establish what exactly the u.s.'s red line is and whether or not that red line has been crossed. but in terms of what we're hearing from opposition members inside syria, they don't see this as terribly significant for their part they have been convinced with the regime using chemical weapons against them for some months and only see this as significant if it results in an actual change in u.s. policy which they see as being in eeffectual up to this point. >> that's why i ask the question clarissa. with the admission and the caveats that the obama admin administration provided about varying degrees of intelligence
7:15 am
on this they believe the white house is tip toweing into further involvement. >> at this stage, they don't believe that. very strong conviction on the ground among rebels and exodus that the u.s. doesn't want to get involved that the u.s. doesn't want to get its hands dirty and, in fact talk to many rebels that because the u.s. has taken a hands off approach with regard to syria, they are, in fact tacitly supporting the regime. that is obviously a conspiracy theory, this type of intelligence, the u.s. coming forward and saying it looks like chemical weapons are used unlikely to persuade u.s. officials ato change policy in syria. >> what do they want the united states to do? >> charlie it depends on who you talk to. rebel fighters would like to see heavier weapons, particularly anti aircraft weapons, but most civilians want a no-fly zone to be protected from fighter jets. >> all right.

7:34 am
>> what does the bill do, who are the winners and losers? >> right now if you are an online retailer and you don't have a presence in the state you don't have to charge taxes from the people who buy things from you and the law actually says the consumer is responsible for declaring those taxes on their state income tax form. but, of course no one does this. so what the law does it levels the playing field. so if you are an online retailer, you don't have a tax advantage. amazon.com, on the same level as walmart.com, that has stores in every state. >> what about the argument that ebay is making that it hurts small businesses that sell through larger companies online? >> that argument is flimsy for a couple of reasons. a carveout of the law says if revenues are less than a million millionsmillion dollars a year you won't be responsible for taxes.
7:35 am
if you are a grandmother knitting socks in des moines iowa you won't be responsible for collecting taxes. plenty of brick-and-mortar retailers that make less than $1 million that are responsible for collecting taxes. >> what about am monazon how do they see it? >> they are in favor of it and i'll tell you why. they have a new strategy, where they are building major warehouses outside of big cities. they say even more than price, consumers want speed of service, so you can call and order something, and get it delivered the same day in a lot of locations, because they were going to have that brick & mortar presence they were going to be paying taxes anyway. additionally, i talked to two senior -- two very senior former amazon employees who told me that 40% of their sales are through third parties where they
7:36 am
share revenue and they are going to charge those third parties a fee for collecting taxes, so they'll make money on collecting taxes, which i never would have expected. >> thank you mellody. turning now to boston and the healing from the marathon bombing, "boston" magazine about to publish its may issue. then the attack happened. theing norah.ra "boston" magazine three days from printing its latest issue, which hit news stands here today when the marathon bombings happened. the effort to document this tragedy was no small task and the cover featuring the shoes of marathon runners, is being seen here as a remarkable tribute to boston's resilience. >> i'm just humbled and my entire staff is humbled we would be able to create something that feeling normal.
7:37 am
>> reporter: the may cover features a heart-shape ring of running shoes, donated by people who ran the marathon along with the message, we will finish the race. >> these are some of the shoes here. >> reporter: jon wolfeson is editor in chief. >> each one is an individual shoe. they are dirty, tattered nothing special or spectacular about them but collectively they create something very powerful, very inspirational and a message of hope and healing and i thought if we could execute it that way it would be symbolic for the way the city has responded to the marathon bombings. >> reporter: in addition to the cover, each runner was asked to contribute a story about how last week's marathon affected them. how close were you to the finish line here? >> my best guess is 70 yards from the finish line. i keep saying 50 yards from the explosion, so i was coming up to the finish line. i could see it. i could taste it. >> renee accounts her experience of hearing the explosion and

king and norah o'donnell. boston bombing suspect dzhokhar tsarnaev is in a prison hospital this morning. martials have moved him out of a boston hospital where bombing victims are being treated. tsarnaev is now in a medical center in massachusetts. >> and the carjacking victim who helped break this case is now speaking out. don dahler is in boston with that part of the story. don, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, gayle, charlie and norah. yes, authorities say that tsarnaev brothers could have wreaked even more havoc were it not for the actions of one man. there's a riveting account in "the boston globe" of the man who was allegedly carjacked and held hostage for 90 minutes. now, he chooses to remain nameless, but he describes the moment that he decided to try to escape. they were stopped at a gas station because his mercedes suv was out of gas. and he says tamerlan tsarnaev put his gun down for a moment to fiddle with the radio. that's when he decided it was his moment. the man says that he unclipped
8:03 am
his seat belt, opened the car door at the same moment and jumped out. he ran away from the vehicle angling his body so tsarnaev couldn't get a clean shot at him. he says he ran across the street to another gas station that had its lights on and asked the attendant there to call 911. now, authorities say that phone call to the police is what led to the eventual tracking down of the brothers in their suv. that rolling gun battle that was so violent and eventually the end of the ordeal. charlie? norah? gayle? >> don dahler thanks. senior correspondent john miller is here former fbi assistant director and former nypd deputy commissioner. we've been talking to the carjacking victim. as we've learned, had he not gotten away these guys could have been on their way to new york. >> that's true. and you know, they said they weren't going to kill him. but they also didn't release him. when one carjacker or bomber went in to pay by the way, with this guy's money, they made him
8:04 am
take $800 out of the atm, when they went in to pay, the other guy was pumping the gas. and that's when he bolted. and he saw his opportunity, and he took it. >> let me move to this question. what tsarnaev is saying. what did he say his miranda warning, and what did he say after? >> charlie, what we've learned is everything he said he said before miranda and that the investigators from the high-value detainee interrogation group, the hague, the professional interrogation team that's dedicated to these terrorism cases, wanted to keep going. but they were basically stopped by the legal process because he's a u.s. citizen on u.s. soil charged with a u.s. crime and the courts intervened. >> as soon as they read him his rights, he stopped talking? >> right. they never read him his rights. what happened is the u.s. attorney filed the complaint. and then the judge, the magistrate, who arraigns people said we're going to have an arraignment, and i'm going to
8:05 am
read him his rights. which they do in every arraignment, and that's when he stopped. >> john can we talk about the parents for a second especially the mother. it appears the more she talks, the angrier people get, that she doesn't think it was real it was a setup, it wasn't really blood, it was paint. what are law enforcement officers saying about what the parents are saying? >> law enforcement -- i mean if the parents want to come here they're anxious to talk about them because whatever they say on television, they think, you know, in the reality of an interview situation, they might be able to get something more rational. we have people over there who are talking to them. and obviously, we're getting a lot more from those people but they're all over the map. i mean the mother starts off basically saying you know i had one son killed in america. and if the other son killed al akbar, you know god is great. so on one hand she's almost saying they're martyrs. and then two days later she's saying i think my first son was alive when police arrested him,
8:06 am
and they killed him, to you know that this whole thing was a hollywood set and w set up. >> is she making people angry? your friends who have worked on this case, worked with these victims, i don't know. i sit there with my mouth open watching her. >> you know i don't know if she's making people angry. i think people are looking at here and we're seeing an anguished mother who's all over the map. >> thank you. congress is stepping in to get rid of all those air travel delays. the house could vote today on a bill to relax faa budget cuts. the senate passed it unanimously last night. across-the-board traffic cuts have forced thousands off the job this week and that's leading to thousands of late flights. it could be that some of the people in congress -- i know john you said you saw john boehner at the airport. he was stuck in one of these things. >> an hour and a half on the ground. he was on the plane with bill bratton. >> so you get back and you go we need to do something immediately. >> an easy way to get it done. >> that's right. new trouble this morning for justin bieber. police searched his tour bus in

it was just a few months back when he was accused of smoking pot at a hotel party. he never addressed it directly but he had this response on "saturday night live." >> he got busted for smoking weed, and he's really sorry about it and that people make mistakes and he's never going to do it again. >> reporter: earlier this month while visiting the home of holocaust victim anne frank, he was criticized for what he wrote in the guest book. "hopefully she would have been a belieber." for a musician it was a pretty tone-deaf comment. >> what did you say? >> reporter: you can be forgiven perhaps for lashing out at the paparazzi, his ever-present and unrelenting shadow. in fact, he said hiding from the cameras was his excuse for wearing a gas mask taking michael jackson's face mask one odd step further. but then there was his pet monkey. quarantined in germany because bieber didn't have the right travel papers for his new friend.

same plenty of teenagers have made. in that context, his behavior is no less excusable or appropriate, but it does seem a little less weird. >> it's hard growing up you know, with everything going on you know with everyone watching me. >> reporter: either grow up or continue to act out. the older he gets the more he'll be expected to know the difference. for "cbs this morning," i'm lee cowan in los angeles. >> maya angelou would say to him, stop it justin. stop it now. justin wasn't on the bus when they found the drugs, but it's just one more story he does not need at this particular time. >> i don't mean to sound like an old lady, but where are his parents? >> well he's 19. he's on the road traveling. believe me his mom is involved. >> okay. >> she's involved. come on, justin. it is now 8:10.

it wasn't a horse but a woman, and the best jockey in america today. so how can you beat that? we went right after her, and it's an amazing phenomenon. the world of horse racing has been stamped men only since the very beginning, in the beginning a couple centuries ago. so the fact that a woman becomes the best jockey of the year is something just not only unusual but unprecedented. >> how many jockeys are women? >> not too many. the pioneer was a woman named b.j. ruben. 30 years old. she was sort of the jackie robinson of racing. she was the first one. and she wasn't greeted very nicely. in fact, other jockeys threatened to boycott a big race if she races. she ended up racing in the bahamas. but the chauvinism is still there. our lady just keeps on saying that the guys in the stands are shouting, go back to the kitchen. have babies, you know. you don't belong here. >> rosie shows them what she can
8:36 am
do. definitely remember team rosie. she shows them what she can do. every woman talks about her weight. jockeys in particular are concerned about their weight. is weight an issue for her? >> it's so enormous she insists on staying at 113 on the dot. and she -- >> 113. >> this is not a narcissistic woman, but she weighs herself. she counted off the times she weighs herself a day. about 15 times a day. she never stops weighing herself, and she insists on being at 113. it's a lot more -- it's a lot worse than boxers. >> i think he was 113 in sixth grade. >> how good is she? she's won these races, is she an extraordinary jockey as compared to anybody? >> yeah. and one of the theories going around -- and she doesn't dispute this -- is that women have a way with horses. >> yes. we were talking about that. >> bob, not just with horses. >> i mean the horses let's face it, they're boys, and she's not. so there is this thing going.
8:37 am
>> that's a big plus for a jockey. >> absolutely. and listen the women -- i'll get accused of all sorts of things but you people aren't as strong as boys. >> you people. >> you people. >> so she doesn't -- i mean, she does not have that strength. and she makes up for it in some sort of communion with the horse. the horse obeys her. she knows how to handle a horse. when she says move the horse, horses move. >> i love the story. i'm excited to see the full show this sunday. you can see bob's entire interview with rosie this sunday night on "60 minutes" right here on cbs. >> us women people are often accused of putting on a show in the bedroom, but a new book says huh-uh huh-uh. men do it, too. why would they do that? coming up next on "cbs
8:40 am
doing it. >> you know i fake it. i really don't feel like saying it. >> you know, i face it. >> what? you faked it? why would you do that? >> you know if it's enough already and i just want to get some sleep. >> "seinfeld" never gets old to me. and kramer is not alone. according to a new book that challenges very familiar male stereotypes, "why men fake it: the unexpected truth about men and sex" is written by abraham morgantaler professor at harvard and founder of men's health boston. i was so excited for you to come, i just want to get to you. doctor, good morning to you. >> great to be with you. >> i was really excited because when i saw the title "why men fake it," i didn't believe it. i know the subject lends itself to snickers and giggles, but it's very serious. because i thought how can men fake it? >> right. it's amazing to people that men do fake it.
8:41 am
but they do. and maybe it's a family show here, so we won't get into too much much. what interests me is the mind of men. and the idea that a man might fake it for the same reason that women do is really an act of kindness. and i don't think that people have this idea about men. men have a terrible reputation when it comes to sex and relationships. >> that they're selfish, that they only care about themselves. >> and the truth is the opposite. in the areas that men are considered the worst is actually where i see them as the most noble. men are great, so i'm doing this work with men behind closed doors with their pants down. >> literally. >> literally. >> and figuratively. >> for a long time. and i started off thinking that men were -- let's say jerks. and over time what i have come to hear behind my closed exam ram room door is men care more about
8:42 am
their partner's pleasure care and satisfaction, believe it or not, than they do their own. >> doctor your book is "why men fake it." how common is this? >> so when i first came across the title character who's this 25-year-old guy who couldn't finish during sex, and he faked it because essenced that his girlfriend was feeling bad about herself as a woman. i had never seen that before or heard that before. but since then i've started talking to people. it turns out to not be that rare. >> and why do you think it's important to have this conversation? >> listen we think that we're so highly evolved, we know everything about sex. we don't know anything about sex that matters. it's really the last taboo. and i think that women and men, but women especially have an idea about men that is totally false. men feel embattled. they feel like they can't get it right. and all they're trying to do man after man in my practice is trying to do good for the woman.
8:43 am
let me give you an example. >> no, no no. >> we'd like to introduce you to charlie rose. >> i really want to hear what charlie rose has to say at this particular time. >> i'm learning. that's what i'm doing. >> do you have any questions, charlie? >> yes. >> okay. >> no. >> let me give you an amazing example. 27-year-old guy comes in my office -- >> i do agree with the notion that men care about women's pleasure more than women know. >> exactly. listen, 27-year-old guy comes in my office. he's in a wheelchair. he's paraplegic. he can't have sex with his wife. i treat him so he's able to. and he comes back and he says doctor, thank you so much. i feel like a man again. now, most people hear that story, and they say, sure. he's having sex. he's a guy. but the kicker in the story is this is a guy who can't feel anything from the waist down. it's not about his pleasure. it's about what he's able to do for his wife. >> how do we know if he faked
8:44 am
it? how do i know, as your partner? >> i don't think it's that easy. how does a man know if a woman fakes it? >> can i ask you quickly, we talk about women have a lot of body issues but you say men base a lot of their self-worth on their anatomy. 75% of men peel they don't measure up. can you explain that? i think people only think that women have body issues. >> listen i think i'm worried about the young guys these days because what they see about sexuality is really not so great. so everybody has access to internet porn, one click, we're surrounded by this imagery, reality tv we see everybody's cheating on everybody else. and i think it's hard for young guys to know what it is to be a man these days. and so they focus on size. they focus on number of partners. i think that people -- >> size is important, doctor. >> if people read this book i think you will -- these are some of the secrets that i've had access to. >> you'll never look at men the same way again. >> i was going to say, i look very differently.
