elected iowa senator joni ernst said the republicans are ready to give american as what they really need. >> i want to tell you about the new congress you just elected and how we plan to make washington focused on your concerns again. americans have been hurting, but when we demand solutions, too often washington responded with the same stale mindset that led to failed policies like obamacare. >> she also called for closing tax loopholes, creating jobs, and defeating terrorism. >> with us now from washington the vice president of the united states joe biden. good morning. >> hey charlie. how are you doing? >> everybody was talking about how defiant the president was and congress talks about a bode call to action. did the president said to you, mr. vice president, we've won two elections, we didn't do so
7:07 am
well in the midterms republicans control the congress but let's go on the offensive, let's put it out and go right for the goals we want. is there in his conversations with you a sense that we're going to be on the offensive for the next few years? >> what the census is charlie, and we talked about it we're working close. they have concerns about child care they have concerns about good jobs t fact that roads don't work in their area. they're concerned about attracting businesses. they're common concerns. charlie, did you notice that when all the talk about the recovery finally having been said, all the things the president said in the beginning of his speech including reducing the deficit significantly, kid you notice all the republicans the last three weeks or four weeks were claiming to have caused the recovery? what caused the recovery is the programs we put in place. all the president is saying is
7:08 am
don't stop the momentum now. you're acknowledging the momentum is going. the prelude is taxing the rich. there's one tax that affecting trust fund people. if you buy $10 million worth of stock if you're wealthy enough and you die and by the time you leave it to your heirs is worth $50 million, you pay capital gains except if you have that kind of money and you leave it in that circumstance. they pay no tax. so we're just saying, hey, look, what's more prornltappropriate, to spend $200 billion and give middle class a tax break or give something that's of no value and not one single republican can give you an exception why they -- >> they control the congress. don't you need to reach out to them in a way -- >> i know that. sure we have. >> not just present the proposal but cooperate and find a common
7:09 am
ground. >> look. i have met with the leadership. i have been having private meetings in my home. 700 leaders have talked with me i've invited them in my home. we've had conversations. they know what has to happen. i believe the majority of the republican party still believes in the notion that we have to have the best trained people in the world to attract business. they have a lot of interest groups like the democrats do. have you ever heard a republican use the phrase middle class as much as you've heard in the last year? they get it. they get it. so the idea that we're going to stay silent and not talk about the value system something they, in fact, agree on? i looked out at that chamber and, you know, i like major a lot, but i saw the republicans standing off a lot. i didn't -- i looked out and i
7:10 am
saw a whole lot of friends in both political parties. i like those guys. >> let me get my colleagues in mr. vice president. >> mr. vice president let me ask you about foreign policy. one of the big questions last night is the president was asking congress for authorization of military force against isil. the president said last night to the american people our military is stopping isil's advance, but if you look at the map over the last three months they've gained more territory in syria. do we need to rethink our strategy? >> no. what we need to do is double down on our strategy. we're make progress against isil. they call it da'esh in the region. they're working together and they're losing ground. losing ground. >> not in syria, though mr. vice president. >> let me answer. you asked me are we losing ground. we're gaining grand.
7:11 am
in syria -- there are no boots on the ground. syria is a dysfunctional country. the fact of the matter is we're working with our arab allies and european allies to begin to build coalitions to be able to take on both assad and isil and it is a difficult process. it's going to take time. and there is no existential threat in the united states. we're making progress. lastly i come from a school of thought where the congress have an equal say on war and peace. they should step up and say okay, mr. president, we agree with you. this is the authority you have to go after isil within this time frame. it's the best way to do business to get everybody in on the deal. that's why the president's asking for a new, what they call you know -- an aumf that is, the authorization of the use of force. >> let me ask you about the security at your home.
7:12 am
shots were fired at your home in delaware. luckily you and your familiar weren't at home. are you raising issues about the trouble with security. are you worried? >> no, i'm not worried. my house is way off the road. there is no evidence it was shot at my house. they found shell casings over 100 yards, four shells so a car must have been going by at a fairly high rate of speed. it appears a passenger fired my gun and the house is on the drive 'eers side about 100 yards away. there's no evidence of anything hitting the house. i'm not at all worried. >> okay. so you don't think anybody's trying to get you. >> no, i don't. at least not physically. >> before we say good-bye what do you make of deflategate, that allegedly 11 of the 12 balls were underinflated. what do you think about
7:13 am
softballs? >> i can tell you as a receiver i like soft balls. >> he must have been a wide receiver. >> actually i was. i wasn't bad at it. >> good-bye mr. vice president joe biden. >> soft hands. soft hands. >> i know. >> thanks a lot. republican house leader kevin moreccarthy will talk about what he thinks. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." this morning u.s. navy ships are on standby to evacuate american embassy workers from yemen. it comes as rebel fighters gain ground in the nation's capital of sanaa. they call it an unfolding
7:14 am
coupe. mike morell is a former deputy director of the cia. who is this group of rebels? >> this group is a shia group in what is a largely sunni country. they've been fighting an insurgency against the government for years. there's been on-again-off-again fires. there have been negotiations under way. those negotiations broke down in the last few days. >> okay. so the yemeni government accuses iran of this saudi-backed rebel group. is that a concern? >> iran poses many many challenges to us and their allies. they want to be the most influential power in the region. that's not in our region. they conduct terrorism as a tool of state craft. they support terror groups. they support sunni insurgent
7:15 am
groups in the region. this is an example of that. >> mike, what can the united states do? >> this happened once before. there was a political break joup in sanaa in 2011/2012. during that time charlie, al qaeda and yemen grew considerably. it ended up controlling almost a third of the country. we put this back together politically at that time. the state department did a very very good job and once it was put back together the yemeni government working with the u.s. government was able to g after al qaeda. that's going have to be done again here i think. what's really dangerous, charlie, is al qaeda is now going to have space because nobody's going to be focusing on it. as these two groups fight al qaeda is going to have the space to grow and pose threats. >> thanks mike. >> you're welcome. this morning in israel the please called the stabbing spree a terror attack. a palestinian man stabbed nine people on a bus in tel aviv.

all of the patriots' footballs became underinflated. but the bottom line is while the indianapolis colts were playing with fully inflated regulation footballs the patriots were report lid using the deflated footballs. experts say those footballs would be easier to grip and catch especially in the rainy conditions this past sunday. cbs news reached out last night to the nfl which told us we're not commenting on the matter at this time. and overnight cbs sports report thad some in the baltimore ravens administration feel footballs were deflated in the game against the patriots the week earlier. in that game the patriots trailed but beat the ravens by four points. we're talking about a $25,000 fine potentially a loss of a

8:01 am
findings appear to confirm those suspicions. >> the mayor of paris feels she must now seek legal recourse because of repeated suggestions on fox news that her city was rife with terrorists enclave. >> the alleged sexual assault took place in a frat house located off campus. the fra ternlts involved has been suspended until further notice. >> michelle obama made her own fashion state. she got rave reviews. word is it's michael kors. i want one. charlie, if you're interested i take size 12 in michael kors. >> the soft ball was deflated. what do you think of that? >> not having been a receiver i like the soft ball. soft hands, soft hands. i'm charlie rose with gayle king and vinita nair. norah o'donnell is in washington. president obama is telling
8:02 am
congress and the country that it is time to turn the page from the financial crisis and the recession and unemployment that followed. he used last night's state of the union to push republicans to support the middle class instead of the rich. the president said his economic policy made the state of the union strong. >> he also called for more cooperation from the republican-led congress. >> it's one where we key bait without demonizing each other, where we talk issues and values and principles and facts rather than gotcha moments or trivial gaffes or fake controversy that has nothing do with people's lives. if we're going to have arguments, let's have arguments, but let's make them debates worthy of this body and worthy of this country. i have no more campaigns to run. [ applause ] >> my only agenda -- i know because i won both of them.
8:03 am
>> that is a line of the day for a lot of people. it's getting a lot of pickup. the president also told republicans he would veto any bill reversing his policies on obamacare, immigration, and even public relations. >> that was a good line. congressman kevin mccarthy is here this morning. good morning. you thought that was a good line. >> well played. >> well played. i noticed last night when they announced the president was entering the chamber, you were right there behind the president of the united states. since you were so close before did you guys find some areas of cooperation? >> we go and meet the majority leader. had a civil rights leader from sell selma. we had dinner. i told the pretty about it. he was able to go greet her and say hello before hand. that's what we talked about. i went and did the march with
8:04 am
john lewis in selma a couple years back. that was the conversation basically. >> he said we've seen our economic growth, the stock market has doubled. health care inflation is at its lowest rate in 50 years. does the president deserve any credit for that? >> look. i think the president has worked hard. there's some challenges we could be much stronger. you can always pick different facts but if you look at the participation rate it really scares me. it's 62.7%. this estest it's been. it lowers the unemployment, but what's fearful is if you've given up looking, you've given up hopes and dreams. our deficit is at $18 trillion. that's larger than our whole economy. so we've got a lot of work to do. i'm excited about being able to work together. >> you know. it's interesting. if you look at the polls, the american people said they like the divided government. this is the first time polling where people say no dwoelkt
8:05 am
want divided government. we want compromise. it's still not clear to me on what level the republicans are going to get any compromise and come together with anything with the president in the united states. >> look. i believe in the divided government. historically we've done big things. reagan had tip o'neill when we formed the tarks code. gingrich had bob dole. historically we're at the right place to be able to conquer a lot of our big challenges and i think the opportunity is we should get down. if someone's willing to work, we work with them. and we're going to have different philosophical approaches but our government is divided that no one get 1/00% of what they want. the idea i have is if the president wants to work with us we've been here 2 1/2 weeks and he's put in seven veto threats. i think that's not the best start. let us put in some work before deciding to veto. >> charlie? >> the question about the vetoes if in fact the
8:06 am
president does veto the key stone pipeline what will the republicans do? >> i think they'll try to override it. bill clinton vetoed reform twice. he signed it a third time. that's the way our government is devised. we studied keystone for five years. every challenge the president fahad and the court challenge, nebraska has taken that away. i think this is an easy place we can find common ground, put people to work and make energy work for the entire north america. >> a lot of people are saying what happened last night and the president laid out is setting the debate not only for the next two years but presidential campaign 2016. if that's not it, what do you think the debate is? >> i think the debate is what the fuehrer looks liechlk we still have a great challenges in foreign policy. our friends don't trust us and our enemies don't fear us. i say economically we talked about the middle class, but their income has dropped since
8:07 am
they beerch in office. so it's really what is the future for you, not your children. there's so much fear that people coming out of college can't get a job and have such large debt. where is the growth and opportunity that we have? i still believe america's the best country in the world and has the best opportunities to challenge people in washington. >> a lot of people feel that, congressman, that america is the best place in the world. let me ask you this. when you were listening last night to the proposals, did you hear anyone say, you know, i think that's a great opportunity. >> i think trey, perfect opportunity. they hired more vets. last congress, that got stuck in the senate. that's gone through. i think if that becomes law it will show that one, we're competent, second, that the country can move forward and we can start tackling. >> none of those address the
8:08 am
income inequality. >> i think tax reform would be the best opportunity, right? everybody's for simplifying the tax code. the president wants to raise more taxes. we do not agree with that. simplification closing the loopholes, i think that's a common ground we can work toward. >> thanks. and we'll see you again. >> thank you so much. what you can do right this minute to make your financial new years resolutions a reality. jill schlesinger has some thoughts. she's in the toyota green room

our ""eye on money" series" talks about things you're most interested in. cbs news poll shows americans are feeling most positive about the american economy since before the great recession. more than half the states are in good shape. that's up 40% from a few months ago. cbs business analyst jill schlesinger is with us. good morning. >> good morning. >> you told us you read a thing in the paper that said -- >> most of these resolutions fall off right around the third week. we're here to keep you on track. >> you're going to change that. >> yes. everyone needs to think about having zero consumer debt meaning car loans and credit cards. we also want to have you accumulate 6 to 12 months of emergency reserve funds.
8:15 am
what's interesting about that is that requires you to understand how much you actually spend. i know a lot of people don't do that. 6 to 12 months is a big number. and eventually start to try to max out those retirement plan contributions. this year $18,000 for a 401(k) or a 403(b). if you're over 50 you can pop in an extra $6,000. >> how do people do that living paycheck to paycheck? >> a lot of them don't. i'm going to tell you to try to do the best you can. >> what about insurance? this is a good time to re-evaluate all that. >> absolutely. there are tons of tools on the internet to find insurance whether it's life health disability, long-term care. i want to make a special note. for those people who have one parent working outside of the home, one inside the home, insure the person who's working. don't do that. make sure you insure both people because if your stay-at-home spouse something happens to him or her, you're going to require more help.
8:16 am
you should have insurance on the stay-at-home parent as well. >> how do you decide when the right time is to renegotiate your mortgage? >> i think if you know you have a mortgage where you were unable to refinance because rates were higher or you didn't have enough equity, now is a fabulous time. rates are down below 4% again, for a 30-year fixed. for those with bad credit, the parameters have changed a bit. now would be a time to go check it out. >> and you say people should think about estate planning. you think wealthy not for me. >> estate means rich. >> you're right. >> and really you don't want to think about death. everybody needs very core documents prepared. a will that tells everyone where you want to go -- where your money wants to go. we have power of attorney, which makes legal decisions for you, financial decisions, and a health care proxy. if you need a trust or do not
8:17 am
resuscitate lawyer. go see a lawyer. get these documents done. >> push past the three weeks. >> exactly. >> thank you so much. jill is answering your financial questions for 2015 right now on twitter. tweet us with the #beready and she will answer. mark phillips is in london where "the sun" is showing more skin. >> reporter: "the sun's" infamous page three girl is a gone girl. will the world ever be the same? that's ahead on "cbs this morning." >> announcer: this morning's "eye on money" sponsored by voya financial. changing the way you think of retirement.

every day many people in britain buy "the sun" newspaper and go right to page 3. that's where you could always find a photo of a topless model or two but suddenly this morning those page 3 girls are gone from the tabloid. mark phillips is in london looking at what may be the end of a notorious edition. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. newspapers are usually about the great events of our time war and peerks politics and peace,
8:22 am
but not this paper. it's making news because of what it's not printing. on page 3, parent alal supervision is advised. it has its mix of sports celebrity gossip, maybe a little news and what has come to be known as the page 3 girl. a daily eyeful of lacey 22 or indy 24 from reading. just a bit of circulating enhancing fun, a harmless tradition the paper has argued misplaced, mashs, misogynistic sexism. >> page 3 image is often the biggest image of a woman in the newspaper. there's usually page after page of men fully clothed doing things and running the country achieving in sports. you know it's all about what they're doing. with women it's about what they
8:23 am
look like. >> but flip open the paper to page 3 now and and you get chicken breasts instead of the other kind a supermarket ad. flip once more and you've got nostalgia for the good old days and bad puns. in this london working man's cafe, it's the end of the world as we know it. >> i think it's a woman's right if she wants to get her -- >> rupert murdoch seen with the pape when he bought it in 1969 has been asking too. he's hedging his bets. topless women still adorn the paper's website and, anyway, the internet is full of that and more says columnist lentz. >> "the sun" paper was old-fashioned sexism and i don't
8:24 am
think many were that offended by it. >> reporter: not even apparently for the women who pose. >> it's not objectifying it. it's making them look more appeal. >> i think girls should be proud. >> reporter: "the sun" hasn't officially announced it's canceling its page 3 girls forever. maybe it's waiting to see what its circulation figures look like. >> this is a thing that goes to charlie. >> thank you, mr. phillips. >> i think looking at a great set of breasts are good but unless men are showing their penis, fine, let it go it's launched the careers of a lot of women. >> i know when not to get involved. >> good-bye to chelsea, lacy krclacey
8:25 am

8:35 am
isn't it? >> it's great. i always say i'm like a mouse chewing through a wall. one tiny bite at a time. you know but eventually you've eaten the whole wall right? >> this is the best time of your life, isn't it? >> you know what? it's pretty fantastic. >> there are no walls remaining in julianne moore's path to success. now nominated for her fifth oscar, she's already taken home a golden globe and hollywood film award. >> by observing these baby steps -- >> for "still alice" it is the portrail of a woman finding early onset alzheimer's. >> you know what it's like to live with alzheimer's. >> right. someone who's defined by her intellect. she's questioning who she is. >> and what what do i do when i can no longer do the things i do. >> yeah. how does she cope? how does she present herself? how does she fight her decline?

8:47 am
themselves. >> reporter: they do that by providing the structure and discipline many of these boys never had. students must wear uniforms. each boy gets paired with a mentor from the community. school days are longer to avoid idle time on the streets. and the kicker -- >> there are no girls here, right? >> that's right. and it makes a huge difference. >> i'm sure it does. i mean that's a huge distraction when you're a teenager i think. >> to be able to come to a place where they don't have to worry about competing for girls or getting dressed up for girls. they can be very focused their schoolwork. we have a lot of young men that schools would shy awa from. we meet these young men and say we'll put them all together and get to the finish line. >> reporter: the average number of black and latino boys to graduate high school in new york city is about 50%. it's 78% at eagle academy with 100% getting accepted into college. >> people don't see the greatness that lies within boys of color.

8:49 am
think. >> no man ever stands so tall as when he stoops to have a child. this is the thing i love about people who go out and find these stories about people who make a difference in other people's lives. >> me too. go jeparis. vlad, thanks again. love, love love that. ahead, a husband wrecks his family's h we asked women use dove bar for 7 days with no mirrors. on the seventh day beautiful skin is revealed. with one quarter moisturizing cream it helps skin feel more firm and elastic. take the dove 7 day test. for very dry skin, you need healing. new vaseline intensive care with micro-droplets of vaseline jelly relieves dry skin and moisturizes to heal it in just 5 days. clinically proven. that's the healing power of vaseline.
