it is wednesday, june 5th 2013. welcome to "cbs this morning." baseball faces a bombshell. the man who could hold the answers to that performance-enhancing drug is ready to talk. tensions boil over on capitol hill. lawmakers grill pentagon leaders over sexual assaults in the military. and one of the highest paid university leaders in the country is forced out. you'll hear the jokes that infuriated his bosses. but we begin this morning with a look at today's "eye opener," your world in 90 seconds. there's a simple fix. i would hope that they would

contact us and make the recalls happen. >> a recall standoff between chrysler and the federal government. >> u.s. safety regulators want the auto maeker to recall 3 million jeep grand cherokees and jeep liberties. >> they say the vehicles can start on fire when struck from behind. >> chrysler says the vehicles are safe. according to a report major league baseball will try to suspend as many as 20 players including alex rodriguez and ryan braun. has a pledge from anthony bosh on players who used the p.e.d. >> i don't know the specifics of the story. i already addressed it and commented and will say nothing further about it. you have lost the trust of the men and women who have relied on you. the hearing on the sexual assaults in the military. >> sexual assault cases should remain within the chain of command. for the first time we're hearing the phone conversation between the surviving boston marathon bombing suspect and his mother taped while at a prison

hospital. hundreds of people have evacuated along the mississippi river. water is now at least two miles inland. fishermen in california reel in a shark, 1,300 pounds. >> my sharking career is over. >> all that and all that matters. >> the process that fills the u.s. senate seat must allow the senate to have the choice to determine their nominees. >> he would appoint an interim senator but not expect hope. hello. nope. there we go. >> -- on "cbs this morning." >> kim kardashian and kanye are expecting baby girl. >> we need another kardashian like we need another michael douglas revelation. captioning funded by cbs

welcome to "cbs this morning." and good morning norah. >> good morning, charlie. big new this morning. >> we begin with sports. a big breaking story. the founder of a clinic is agreeing to cooperate with investigators fully. >> the investigation is expected to lead to suspension of big named players. terrell brown is with us this morning. good morning. >> good morning. according to reports, investigators pursued employees for months. it was reportedly enough to make him break his silence. major league baseball is turning up the heat on players suspected of used banned substances like steroids. cbs sports is learning that anthony bosh has agreed to tell baseball investigators what he knowed. girardi says his bigger worry is for the game. >> i worry about baseball being affected as a game the whole

thing and what it's been through in the last 15 years, and that's my concern. >> baseball has threatened long suspensions for players found guilty, but proving the charges could be difficult. there are reportedly no positive drug tests involved and the players union is expected to present a strong challenge to investigators. the players involved are said to be some of the biggest names in the game facing suspensions that could cost them more than half the season charlie. >> thank you. with us chris russo, a sports talk show host on sirius xm radio. >> good to be here. >> what is your feeling? >> football doesn't go as hard on it as you'd like. baseball is very serious about knocking steroids out of the sport for good. bosch is going to talk. he's got everyone all over him. he needs to get his practice back. this is going to be a prolonged

process. they did not fail a drug test. you're going to have to get them suspended without the drug test. it's a long process here charlie. >> are there people who would be worried? >> i would be worried about a-rod. he's under the gun. what else is new. he's always in trouble. and ryan braun. last year he got away with it as a technicality. last year as a brewer he got away with it because he threw the fedex driver under the bus. >> now, if these penalties are handed down it's my understanding it would be the largest performance-enhanceing drug scandal in american history. it's going to be more than these two players, right? >> it's about 15 20 guys. we know some of the names associated with the story that came out last year. the names that came out last year were nelson cruz and melky cabrera. so there's a lot of players involved here.

but, again it's going to be a long process. i don't know about 100 games. i think 50 would be a bit much. >> 100-game suspension. >> yeah. i would say 50 but remember, that players' association is going to back their players up. >> can i talk about sports in general? why is mlb tougher than anybody else? >> because records are so important. home run records. there's more of a protocol for baseball. it's more of a statistical sport. football do you care? you don't see him anyway. but the pitcher, the record, you care about that stuff. baseball is a little more wrapped up in records than say football and basketball are. and, again baseball has been pretty proactive here. they've been heads in the sand forever. they took a long time to join the party, but they've joined the party in a big way. >> chris, thank you. >> charlie thank you.

norah, thank you. now chrysler is taking a defiant stance against the government. they say they will not go along with a voluntary recall. jim axelrod is here. jim, good morning. >> good morning, charlie. the government says the older model jeeps are defective and at risk for gasoline fires in a rear end collision. chrysler disputes it. in a rare move the company is refusing to recall the vehicles. chrysler fired back at the national highway traffic safety administration saying the vehicles are not defective and they do not intend to recall them charging that the agency's initial inclusions are based on an incomplete analysis. it's a bold move, according to industry experts. justin at "car and driver" magazine wonders about it. >> calculating that it's going to be cheaper to fight this and

deal with the public's backlash, we're assuming that's what they have done. >> reporter: in its letter to chrysler the agency states that the gas tank placement in jeep grand cherokees built from 1993 to 2004 and jeep liberties can cause gas leaks that can lead to fire. chrysler conducted its own analysis arguing that the risk analysis is no more comparable than those made by other companies. the national highway traffic safety administration says it's identified 37 fatal rear end impact fires in the two models resulting in 51 deaths. >> the fact that in this case they're compliant with it doesn't excuse them or defend them from any problems. >> when they know that something that meets the standards is

burning paem to death, the general public deserves some action. >> reporter: >> jenelie embrey was involved in a crash in which two people died. she's vowed to get the vehicles off the road. >> what any ordinary person would do is take the vehicles back and make them safe. >> reporter: on tuesday chrysler released a statement saying the company stands behind the quality of its vehicles and that they remain committed to working with nhtsa. the company must file a formal response by june 18 in which the parties will negotiate a settlement or the matter could be decided in court. another committee in congress takes up the assault crisis in the military day as it considers a defense senate bill. senator john mccain says he is

so disgusted he told a mother he cannot give unqualified support to the idea of her daughter enlisting. david martin is at the pentagon. david, good morning. >> good morning. for decades, military leaders have vowed zero tolerance for sexual assault without making a accident in the problem. so members of the armed services committee want to know what's different this time and they were not pleased with the answers. >> reporter: they testify about their effort to deal with sexual assault, senator claire mccaskill was a little more than disappointed. >> i'm a little taken aback. it sounds like you are all very bullish on the status quo. just listening to your testimony from a distance. and i just want to tell you that with this senator and other senators, the status quo is not acceptable. >> reporter: she is pushing legislation that would require

the military to kick out anyone convicted of sexual assault. >> we can prosecute our way out of the problem of sexual predators who are not committing crimes of lust. my years of experience in this area are telling me they're committing crimes of domination and violence. >> reporter: senator kiersten gillibrand has introduced legislation that would take the decision to prosecute sexual assault away from commanders who she says don't have the background to deal with sex crimes. >> not every commander know as what a sexual assault is and not every senator can distinguish between the slap on the ass and a rape. >> they all objected to her legislation. >> our goal should be to hold commanders more accountable, not remember der them less able to help correct the crisis. >> but they all agreed the current rate of sexual assault,

about ten new cases each day, is indeed a crisis. >> it's shameful it's repulsive, and we're aggressively taking steps to eradicate it. >> one thing that's different this time that is that women have more political power and the bills they have introduced would fundamentally change the way sexual assault is prosecuted in the military. charlie, norah? >> thank you. and new this morning cbs news has confirmed a major shakeup in president obama's national security team. we have learned that his national security adviser tom donilin will be resigned and will be replaced by susan rice. let's bring in cbs news and political analysis john dickerson. this has created a shakeup of the team and susan rice becoming part of the inner circle. >> that's right. susan rice remember that long journey she's been on.

she got caught up in the benghazi matter and was considered at the heart of it by a lot of rns who went after her and were seen to have basically kept her out of that secretary of state job. when that happened white house officials told me basic she he was next in line for the job. it's been a long time coming. swhoenlt have to go through a senate confirmation. we now have learned through the e-mails that rice wasn't really in the middle of the talking points that became such a big deep. that doesn't mean that her name here won't kick up a lot of political reaction. >> is this because of susan rice or tom donilin. he's made some very very famous trips overseas representing the president. >> well, i don't think it's unhappiness. i think rice was -- they want -- rice has a lock relationship with the president. he -- when she didn't get the secretary of state job, people inside the white house said this was a real disappointment to the

president because they saw the world in the same way. donilin has served the president for four years. so i think rice was -- they wanted to have her more in the inner circle although of course, as the cabinet post at the united nations she was there a little bit more. so i'm not sure what the exact answer to that is charlie. but rice is -- go ahead. >> john it's my understanding the president said to make this announcement this afternoon. what about the timing of it? the president is about to leave for california with a huge meeting on friday with the president from china, something that the former direct over national security was over there setting the whole thing up. >> this weekend the meeting is taking place. >> they can still go forward with their conversations. he hasn't stopped working and moved on. so the very sensitive discussions with the chinese top of the list of course, is this discussion of cyber snooping and

the delicate negotiations over that and the chinese looking and taking essentially u.s. technology in secret. that all will continue. and it continues the pace. this transition won't happen instantaneously instantaneously. >> john dickerson, thank you. for the first time we're also hearing the voice of the surviving bombing suspect dzhokhar tsarnaev. bob is with us this morning. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, charlie. he's charged with using a weapon of mass destruction and if convicted he could face the death penalty. if he's concerned, he's not at all showing it. he told his parents everything's all right. it is the first time since the twine explosions on poils tonboylston street the family has heard from

the suspect. the accuse bomber tried to call his family and urge them not to discuss his case. everything is good he said. please don't say anything. zubeidat says she spoke to him from the prison hospital. she asked dzhokhar if he was in pain. no, of course not, dzhokhar said. i'm already eating and have been for a long time. they're giving me rice and chicken now. everything's fine. for zubeidat everything was a surprise. >> i thought he would scream and ask what's going on to the world, what's going on. instead he was coming to me down, you know what i mean?

>> reporter: tsarnaev has been granted one call a month to his parents in. sources say before being read his rights he did confess to the bombing. dzhokhar said he and his brother tamerlan wanted to avenge the killings of muslims overseas. now cbs news contacted a number of victims of the boston bombings and no one wanted to comment. in fact most people said they didn't want to waste any more energy talking about czar nauchlt meanwhile the prosecutors are forming their case. an indictment could come in a few weeks. a huge victory for the assad regime. the syrian army says it claimed a town from rebel troops. it's near the lebanese border. the army says a large number of

through. >> time is running out. please suspend the rules until we look at this policy which we all believe is flawed. >> this is an incredibly agonizing situation where someone lives and someone dies. >> based on their age. based on their age. >> sir -- >> reporter: sebelius asked for a policy review and said she's sympathetic but explains the rules are there for a reason. >> because the lungs are different than other organs. it's based on the survivability. > this is different. sarah's case is different. doctors have said she could survive with an adult lung. it could be modified to save her life. why wouldn't we do it. >> reporter: kaplan says it's because pediatric lung participants generally face greater risks. >> what the parents want to do for their child isn't really the

best use of the scarce supply of organs. >> reporter: while sarah's doctors say they could perform a successful transplant, making an exception for her is not the obvious choice. >> we don't have the situation where we say save me or don't save me. we're saying save me as opposed to someone else. that's the toughest ethical problem that i think can arise in medicine. >> reporter: but kaplan says there is an argument for re-evaluating the rules when it comes to children and lung transplants. >> did you know everyone sent in prayers for you? >> yes. >> what do you think of that? >> thank you for saying prayers. >> at this point, sarah's options appear to be limited because potential policy limits could take more time than she has. for people who want to help dr. kaplan says the best thing to do is to sign up for organ donation. charlie, norah? >> thank you. that's tough. doctors say they think they can

do it and it's got to be one of the most frustrating things in the world if you're a parent if there's some red tape that you believe -- when you want to do anything you can to save your child's life. >> absolutely. and if they can modify it and within reason demand that somehow they consider it. >> absolutely. all right. and now to this story. the controversial issue of smoking and the nation's work force. smokers cost employees almost $6,000 a year more than nonsmokers. that's according to a new study in tobacco control magazine and they break the numbers down even more. >> more than $3,000 of that extra money comes from smoke breaks and here's something else to consider. companies save cash when it comes to pensions. that's because smokers don't live as long as nonsmokers. a new report raises new questions. legal analyst jack forward. good morning. >> good morning. >> does this give them ammunition? >> it certainly does. now, especially given this report, i think you're going to

see a movement toward banning smokers from the workplace. you know the employers -- a couple of things you need to know. first of all there are 29 states in the district of columbia that prohibit employers who say i'm not going to hire you because you're a smoker. that leaves 21 other states where this is going to become a battleground. i think what you're going to see as you said employees will look at this and will say i have an economic justification. >> one of our cbs medical consultants has said that now that more employers are going to be required to provide health insurance will say i don't want to hire people with chronic diseases or habits that may be more costly. >> well, we knee that even in this affordable care act the obama administration has pushed if i'm buying health insurance and i'm a smoker it's going to cost me more. >> and it's legal to charmge

more. >> they say you can buy out of that if you get involved in a smoking cessation program. that's a good thing. a number of major companies say they're not going to hire smokers because it costs way too much. the second issue is if you are employed and you as employee are paying part of your health care costs, can the employer say, you know what? it's going to cost you more here. in some places you're seeing that play out already. >> is this the kind of case that will be brought on by appeal? >> i think so, charlie. the courts have looked at some job categories and said it's okay to fire people. if you're a fire person the clerk says it's okay not to hire them because you're 500 pounds and out of shape. as all thing, ultimately we're going to hear from a higher court and they'll give us some direction on it. >> thank you. and they might need a bigger boat. we're going to show you the

i'm anne-marie green. i'm anne-marie green. i'm anne-marie green. good morning to you. it's 8:00. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there is a shakeup in the white house this morning. tom donilin is out and ambassador susan rice is taking on an important new role. robert f. kennedy was shot 45 years ago today. our own michelle miller learns new details behind the connection to that event. and does this look like fine art to you? we'll show you why somebody paid big bucks this morning to photos taken by a chimp. yes, a chimpanzee. but first here's a look at

today's "eye opener" at 8:00. the players involve ready said to be some of the biggest names in the game. >> the founder of a florida clinic is agreeing to cooperate fully with investigators. >> i don't know about the 100 games, but remember that players' association is going to back their players up. it's going to be tricky. >> cbs news has confirmed tom donilin will be resigning and will be replaced by susan rice. >> when she didn't get the job, people at the white house said this was a real disappointment. >> the government says the older model jeeps are detective. chrysler disputes the claim, refusing to recall the vehicles. >> for decades military leaders have vowed zero tolerance for sexual assault so members of the armed services committee want to know what's difrp this time. >> we want to know how many men and women are being raped on an annual basis and we have no idea right now. a group of men off the coast

of southern california land add massive shark. >> this one came up wanting to kill every single thing in its sight. it was fight fight, fight in every direction. >> you're going to see a movement toward banning smokers from the workplace. russia enacted a new law that bans smoking in public places. workers weren't hachlt well this is russia. >> i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. as president obama gets ready to meet china's president this week his national security adviser is about to step down. >> officials say tom donilin will be replaced by u.n. ambassador susan rice. cbs political analyst john dickerson is in washington. john, good morning. >> good morning, norah. >> what's the reason behind this and the timing of this too? >> well, one officials say tom donilin has been in that job for four years. when susan rice you remember was the focus of so much controversy in the senate, when

she was considered for the secretary of state job, republican senators basically torpedoed that nomination, and when that happened white house advisers said she was really next in line for that national security job and so for many months it's been assumed that she would get it whenever that time came. white house advisers say it's now been four years for donilin. he has been working on this deal with the chinese, this meeting that's taking place later this week, and that he will leave in july after that -- that meeting has taken place, and then rice will come in. >> so he leaves government. that's not a new position for tom donilin. go ahead, john. >> not as far as i know no. >> he was a personal adviser. was there any dissatisfaction on the part of the president about tom donilin? >> there is -- in that job, you can always get reports from somebody who's unhappy about the way the national security adviser is doing their job. and so there's been some reporting about his sharp elbows, but there are also a lot

of people in the white house who say there's absolutely no disappointment from the president, vice president, chief of staff dennis mcdonough who used to work under donilin, so there's very strong pushback from people from the white house. >> john, do you think this move is more about susan rice than tom donilin and does it possibly send a message to republicans who came down hard on susan rice during that benghazi hearing? >> the president, as we know ever since susan rice worked on his campaign and by all accounts from those inside the white house sees the world as the president does they have a very good relationship he was disappointed during the secretary of state circus as they saw it so this is someone with whom the president has a close relationship even more on the circuit was a member of the cabinet of the u nations. >> john then susan rice will leave open the position of u.n.

ambassador. i understand samantha powers will replace her, another close adviser to the president. >> tliets. she was a strong advocate for intervention in libya. she has spent her professional career working against genocide and mass atrocities. the question is what le l she do on that question related to the massive refugee flows out of syria in this new post at the united nations where they're trying to get the united nations to move on that question. >> all right. john dickerson, we thank you. america's top military commanders told the senate yesterday that sexual assault is like a cancer in the ranks. but the joint chiefs of staff say they oppose any new lawing regarding the way they handle the case. members of the armed service committee were not persuaded. >> you have lost the trust of men and women who rely on you that you will actually bring justice to these cases. >> just last night a woman came to me and said her daughter

wanted to join in the military and could i give my unqualified support for her doing so. i could not. >> we failed on this in the past. it has not been a top priority in the years past the decades past. if it was, we wouldn't be here today. >> our david martin has covered the pentagon for 20 years. david, you know that building and many of the people that serve inside it better than anybody else. was there some suggestion that the optics of that hearing with a lot of male commanders against seven female senators asking really tough questions that that may lead to some real changes? >> well if you saw the picture, it was 12 top military leaders. 11 of them were men and one was a woman. the navy's top lawyer was a woman and that's a reflection of the fact that restrictions on women serving in combat have barred women from the job from

order you need to go through. that's started to change. . one of the witnesses yesterday was an air force colonel i first met whelp she was a lieutenant and the first woman to fly combat aircraft. she now is a wing commander. so slowly but surely women are starting to get to the top of the service. but this is a -- a generational thing, and it's going to take a generation to happen. >> david, have all these stories so made these male commanders committed to change the culture that produced? >> i think they are serious this time. i mean for one thing, the president of the united states called them in and told them to get serious. and for another is they're under much greater political pressure than ever before because of the women in the senate women in general have more political power. and i think finally the military

leaders have come to understand that this is not just about political correctionness. this is about unit cohesion in the military where the role of women is expanding. >> all right. david martin, thank you. in your last hour when you said ten new cases reported a day, it was a stunning number so i hop good morning it's a super way to start a wednesday. this is going to be another gorgeous day. about 60 now. 80 is now going to be the high. tonight we're going to cloud up. tomorrow gray skies still comfortable with a high of 78. that's going to be the beginning to what's going to be a really sloppy day on friday with a couple of inches of marathons are taking off,

this is national running day. everybody put on your sneaks go out for a run. some of us only run to stay healthy, but other people can't live without it and as ben tracy shows us one shoe company is showing traction by taking a different path to profit. >> reporter: running a marathon used to be something for only the most elite athletes. now even your grandma is running 26.2 miles. in 199 0e 224,000 americans finished a marathon. that number more than doubled by 2011 when 518,000 did. >> i think a lot of us that run need to run. it's that powerful if our liferves.

>> reporter: jim weber is the ceo of brooks. the bank was calling their loan. >> there was nothing more that create add crisis and that was what was happening at brooks. we were trying to be something for everybody. >> reporter: weber canceled half of the company's product line to focus solely on running shoes. how much of a risk was that to basically get rid of all your other lines and say it's just running. >> reporter: i think the perception in the industry was, oh my gosh. they're crazy. what's really interesting is i think the biggest risk you take is kind of being like everybody else. >> reporter: nike is the undisputed leader a $24 billion company. brooks is number three at $500 million. he says nike spends more advertising by lunchtime than he spends in the average year.

>> the market is 80 times larger than we are. not eight, 80. >> reporter: so if this is david and goliath, let's assume you're david? >> let's just say we have to run fast. >> reporter: yet brooks has a big rock in its sling shot. his name is warren buffett. he plans to grow a $1.5 billion running empire. after all avid runners purchase more than three pair of running shoes each year. >> it's not about being everything to everyone. it's about being highly relevant to who you're most focused on. >> reporter: so brooks put the shoes through their paces. replicating the punishment customers will later give them. it allows the company to build highly technical products. they test them beyond the door with what they call elaborates.

they have now hooked me up. i now have 54 of these little sensors on me. the sensors allowed eric moor to dissect my run. so what are you actually testing for, looking for while i run? >> we're collect 2g 00 data points. of that data is built and designed into building the design of the shoe. >> reporter: brooks can literally measure the success. cameras count how many are wearing their shoes. they say they're routinely in the top one or two. >> reporter: so this race to being a $1.5 billion company, what mile are you at? >> oh my gosh. we're just at mile seven. we're just getting started. >> you're at the first round stop. >> absolutely. >> reporter: because when it comes to the running shoes by weber is not content at being the runner up. for "cbs this morning," ben

tracy, bothell. >> a personal connection to the tragedy and also a hero of the night. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." >> announcer: cbs "healthwatch" brought to you by our sponsor sore with the inside story on shingles. it was very painful situation. i'm very athletic and i swim in the ocean. shingles forced me out of the water. the doctor asked me "did you have chickenpox when you were a child?" the pain level was so high it became unbearable.

house this morning, the photos fetch a whopping 76 grand. what the fury pry might is that all about? >> i think mikki is a bit of an abstractist. >> reporter: or there is another perspective. >> pretty much crapola. >> is how jerry saltz, senior art critic at new york's magazine. >> it doesn't matter if you call it art. you can call it sewing for all i care. my question is it good art, and the answer is way no way no and not because a chimpanzee took it. it's just bananas to think that this is anything but just monkey business. >> reporter: that monkey business may have something to do with the organ grinders who taught mikki how to point and shoot.

around? for "cbs this morning," charlie d'agata. >> sometimes i feel like a monkey behind the lens. >> how much would your art go for? all the chicken in your grocery store is inspected by the usda before it's packaged. but perdue asked the usda to go further...a lot further. in our hatcheries, feedmills and the family farms where our chickens are raised. they verify that all our chickens are fed an all-veggie diet, with no animal by-products... and they're cared for in a clean, safe environment. no other chicken company does this.

in the picture. so we tracked down the man who took it. >> so who is identified as dr. ross miller in that picture? >> i don't know. >> he's responsible for many of the iconic images of that night. >> i backed into the crowd. i'm holding the crowd back. the camera's around my neck and every once in a while i would go like that. that's how this picture was made. >> reporter: but of all the pictures he took none captured my father tending the injured. to this day he says he can't talk about that night with anyone who was there with him. >> i find it quite difficult. we all know what would have happened. >> reporter: what would have happened? >> the country would be in a far better place, i believe, had he become president. >> reporter: the loss of kennedy

so traumatized him he fled to the mountains. paul schrade went to the dezzer. essentially they both found their purpose. schrade helped to build the kennedy schools. >> bob kennedy was speaking standing about here. >> reporter: the ballroom where kennedy gave his final speech is now the library that bears schrade's name. that's when something jumped out at me. >> bill, i think we may have found him. >> what? >> i think we may have found him. >> let me see. >> it's a picture inside the good samaritan hospital. there in the corner standing just outside of kennedy's room the good dockr. miller. >> yes, it's him. that's him. >> reporter: finally the photographic proof that my dad

actually did what he said. my family history forever intertwined with the night that may have changed the course of american history. >> thank you. >> i'm amazed. i'm amazed. >> michelle what a story. this is incredible. >> beautiful piece, michelle. >> and to think it all started because my son said to me mommy, i don't believe you, you're going to have to prove that to me. >> what does he say now? >> he's -- i think he's amazed by it. and i tell you one of the really amazing things. finding that cbs news archival footage was liquid gold. it was just priceless. and i found it reading the fbi files. there was a mention of two cbs news reporters who gave my dad a lift back from the hospital to the hotel where his car was, and in skparj for that lift, hie agreed to an interview. >> and michelle now you work at cbs. i think about the full circle. >> full circle.

that went through my mind. you know i've told people this story and i took my dad's word and people, i think, you know are kind of like oh well that's nice. but to actually see it live and in limping color ingliving color and to know in that ballroom -- did you see the diversity of that? >> all those people. there were janitors standing next to millionaires standing next to doctors and lawyers and people working in the fields of california. to see that coalition and collaboration and to know it was in the '60s right after the riots and all the unrest. >> the nature of that campaign congratulations. >> beautifully done. >> thank you. >> thank your son. how old is he? >> he's 11. and thank to my husband and daughter margo as well. >> we'll be right back. you're watching "cbs this morning."
