welcome to "cbs this morning." good morning norah. >> good morning to you charlie. we begin this morning with the fallout from the disastrous roll out of obama care. public confidence in president barack obama and his health care law have hit an all-time low. >> a cbs poll out this morning shows 37% of americans approve of how the president is doing his job. that is lowest rating of his presidency. and in the same poll, 43% of americans say the affordable care act should be repealed. major garrett is at the white house. good morning. >> reporter: he says he'll have to remarket and rebrand in his words the health care law. the president's diminished credibility and rising opposition to the law will make that a significant challenge.

a new poll shows less than a third of the country 31% of the country approve of the act. 12 point drop in one month. 61% disapprove. these are the lowest ratings registered in our poll. the survey found two-thirds of the country, 67%, believe signups for insurance under obama care are not going well a 12 point jump in one month. president barack obama b said dissatisfaction with the law is about the bun go of health care.gov website and public opinion will rebound once the site approves. >> there's no doubt we've lost time. the website is getting better each week. by the end of this month, it will be functioning for the majority of people using it. >> here's where the credibility may with at stake. our poll found 34% are confident the federal website will be fixed by the white house target date of december 1st. 64% are not.

>> we're, wog working around the clock to fix issues. >> he told the team making emergency repairs has a major task to establish building 30-40% of the web system needed to make payments to the insurance companies. as for the december 1st deadline -- >> there's still a lot of moving parts that it wouldn't be prudent to give 100 garn% guarantees. >> reporter: healthcare.gov remains vulnerable to hackers. >> there are critical plaus and exposures currently on the website hackers could use to ex tract sensitive information. >> reporter: chris collins asked this basic question. >> do any of you think the site will be secure november 30th? >> no. >> no. >> no. >> reporter: the white house insists healthcare.gov is secure

and all private financial data will be protected. at 1:05 the president will meet with officials to discuss the proposed fix on how the insurance policies can be reinstituted. >> john dickerson is here. good morning. >> good morning. >> there's more than approval ratings. >> the trust for the president. people have gone back and forth over the years not liking sperveg issues. they've always trusted the president. in our poll the numbers dropped 60% trusted him in december down to 49%. why is that a problem? the president has not only got to convince people the website works again. he's got to convince the underlying law is working. that's a number of instances he'll put the best face on things. they're not going to believe him or he's trying to put the best face on things but if it

doesn't turn out to be true what he says credibility numbers drop. that's hard to get back from a dropped number. >> you talk about the all-time low in his approval ratings and yet haven't seen that much change in number of americans that want this law repealed. >> in july the number of americans that wanted it repealed was 39%. now that number is 43%. that's a little more that want hit but it's only a little more. given the devastating news for this law recently you might are the expect that to be higher. there's a chance people want it fixed and haven't abandoned it completely. >> what about what happened on capitol hill yesterday? now the president still promised the white house would be ready at the end of november. security experts say it's not going to be secure and computer experts say there's still a lot to do on this website. >> we get back to credible. when it gets to the end of the month and the website isn't working and security issues are

out there, the president has to level with people. you get credibility back by an emergency that distracts or being candid about what's really happening. >> what about the democrats in congress? >> democrats want another issue. when we hear a budget debate in week democrats want something to take to voters and say there's no opponent in this. democrats are fighting. the president is fights his own promises. they need an opponent. they need a republican to attack to change the subject. >> they want it to be january 15th when the government runs out of money. they want it to be so they can talk about that. >> any date any issue, they'll take anything. >> john dickerson, thank you. a florida congressman is in a washington d.c. courtroom after being charged with cocaine possession. representative radel faces jail

time. >> reporter: good morning. congressman radel pled guilty to one count of drug possession. the prosecutor said he actually purchased cocaine multiple times using it alone and with others. >> for republicans, trey was a fresh young face 37-year-old former use anchor and new father who dubbed himself a hip hop conservative. charging documents claim the first term congressman partied too hard october 29th when he unlawfully knowingly and intentionally possessed an unspecified amount of cocaine. reporters that went to his office tuesday found the door locked. he missed afternoon votes. in a statement and on social media he says i struggle with the disease of alcoholism. this led to an extremely

irresponsible choice. as the father of a young son and husband to a wife i need to get help and be a better man to both of them. radel got caught buying cocaine as an undercover officer posing as a dealer in a neighborhood not far from the u.s. capitol. it was a string operation for a drug dealer who tipped off police to the alleged congressman clietn. the district including fort myers is heavily republican. the website buzz feed asked democratic leader nancy pelosi tuesday night what she thought about his conduct. >> he escape theed out of edstepped out of line. >> a speaker told us members of congress should be held to the highest of standards. the alleged crime will be handled by the courts. beyond that this is between

radel his family and constituents. >> reporter: this may sound like the plot from a tv drama, but it's actually quite rare the last time a sitting member of congress was charged with drug possession back in 1982. all right. nancy, thank you. and two people are confirmed dead in a massive search underway for two others after the air ambulance plane crashed a mile off the florida coast last night. the leer jet went down three miles from the airport where it took off. moments into the flight the pilot reported mechanical trouble. >> turn left hitting 330. may day may day may day. >> two pilots and medical personnel were on board. they dropped off a patient in fort lauderdale and were returning to mexico where the jet is registered. a deadly suicide bombing

that targeted in lebanon appears to be linked to an al qaeda-linked group that carried out the attack that killed at least 23 people. this morning it's threatening more violence unless the hezbollah ends. we were able to make our way to the blast site and reports from out side the embassy. >> reporter: good many. this is the spot the second suicide bomber detonated the vehicle next to the embassy. you can see how large the crater is. if you follow me over here to this side of the street you can see the scales of the destruction to ordinary residential neighborhoods. the cars all along this block have been completely destroyed. if you look up at the apartments here all the windows have been blown out. it's easy to see why the death toll was so high here. now investigators are combing through the wreckage looking for

clues and evidence. they want to find out who was responsible for this attack. one group has claimed responsibility. they're called the abdullah brigade. they're a little known group with ties to al qaeda. they say the bombs were in retaliation for the support of the war in syria. this is not the first time lebanon has had the brunt of this. many worry this works escalation. many here fought their own civil war 15 years. they're concerned that could possibly happen again. for "cbs this morning," clarissa ward beirut. >> in the u.s. iran and world powers resume nuclear negotiations in geneva switzerland. talks there ten days nearly reached a day. this morning, iran's supreme leader issued a warning saying

decades. there are boxes upon boxes of documents and artifacts from the dallas county district attorney's prosecution of jack ruby in 1964. we were allowed exclusive access to comb through those boxes. among the items here ruby's gun holster and the aluminum brass knuckles he carried along with membership cards from his nightclub, the carousel club. even a photo card of a strip girl. >> this is a treasure trov that gets into the mind of jack ruby. >> reporter: he's studied the kennedy assassination for over 40 years. we asked him to help examine the files like a letter sent by lee harvey oswald's mother mar marguerite by disputing that her

son killed the president and jack ruby's lie detector test where ruby was asked did you shoot lee harvey oswald to save mrs. kennedy a trial? ruby said yes. it may answer long unsettled questions about how he was able to shoot oswald as he was being led out of headquarters. the day oswalt was shot dallas police officer roy vaughn was on duty. some laters speculate thad vaughn might have let ruby in on purpose, a suggestion that bothered him for decades. nancy kennimer is vaughn's daughter. >> do you think he felt like his integrity was questioned? >> i do. he said that later in some interviews. he said that's one thing you don't want taken away from you is your integrity. >> reporter: but perry says these documents should put those

suspicions to rest. it's a memo at the time from henry wade that indicated while being interviewed jack ruby told when he slipped down vaughn did not see him. what's more ruby didn't even know vaughn's name. >> you feel like that officer's name can be cleared. >> can absolutely be vindicated by this. >> vaughn never saw the documents. the 30-year officer who went on to serve as police chief died in 2010. >> i wish my dad were alive and he knew about this because even though i trust that he was innocent of any wrongdoing, i think it would mean something to him to see this paperwork. >> there are undoubtedly many people who would like to see these documents and items. the dallas district attorney craig watkins is going to give public officials and the media a special preview tonight and he's putting some items on loan to the sixth floor museum.
