7:01 am
>> he's in, touchdown, new york, and it is good, the jets beat the falcons! and "all that mattered" -- >> what's it like to be the most hated man in america. >> your party has become the party of no. >> speaker won't take no for an answer. >> you have to get the beam in the room and get a deal. >> on "cbs this morning" -- >> breaking news about the government shutdown -- the government is still shut down. [ laughter ] >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" is presented by >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" is presented by toyota, let's go places. captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." good morning, norah. good morning to you, charlie. >> we begin in washington where no new negotiations are planned to end the week-long partial government shutdown. >> but cbs news is finding there are almost enough votes in the house this morning to reopen the entire government. bill plante is at the white house this morning. bill, good morning. >> good morning, norah. you know the president, of course, wants congress to pass a
7:02 am
clean debt limit bill. that means one that doesn't include his affordable care act. he's signaling repeatedly that he won't back down as the pressure grows to keep the country from going over the fiscal cliff. >> reporter: president obama visited fema, the federal emergency agency which has had to furlough more than three quarters of its workers. there, the president accused house speaker john boehner of avoiding a vote to end the standoff. >> my very strong suspicion is that there are enough votes there. and the reason that speaker boehner hasn't called a vote on it is because he doesn't apparently want to see the government shutdown end at the moment. >> reporter: in the house, 214 democrats tell cbs news they would support the government. two more are needed to pass. speaker boehner, his decision, the president should sit down with him and defund the bill
7:03 am
that calls for the president's health care act. >> really, mr. president, it's time to have that conversation before our economy is but further at risk. >> reporter: but boehner and the president have a bad track record of working together. they tried in 2011 and 2012 to strike a bargain on the deficit. they failed both times. speaker told house republicans he was done negotiating with the president. just last month, mr. boehner shut down the idea of the nation's borrowing limit. >> i'm not doing that. i'm not doing that. the senate to pass a bill, i would guess the president would engage with the majority leader over there. if he so desires. >> now, yesterday, the white house suggested for the first time that it's open to a short-term extension of the debt limit, in order to avoid default. and cbs news has learned that senate democrats will meet this morning to consider their own debt limit increase bill with no
7:04 am
strings attached. a vote on the senate bill could come as early as friday. the object there, of course, to put more pressure on the house. charlie, norah. >> bill, thanks. wall street investors may be getting more worried about a possible default. the dow jones industrial average closed under 15,000 yesterday. it fell 136 points. gillian tett is with us. welcome. >> thank you. >> how worried is wall street and other centers of the global economy? >> well, last week, i think most money managers were saying, surely, congress wouldn't be so dumb. what happened this week, they're getting more concerned that maybe this whole situation is getting out of control. we've seen overnight the chinese and japanese leaders are saying for heaven's sake, get your act together. if you want to get worried one thing to watch for are the so-called halloween bills. these are bills that actually
7:05 am
mature after the deadline. the price of those halloween bills, short-term bills, starting to tumble. >> what do you expect to happen today in the markets? >> well, i think you'll see gradual slide. not a panic. but people are starting to say what if. certainly, if you see the way the stock market has been behaving in the last nine sessions. >> and what about pressure from wall street on congress? we know bankers, business leaders, are talking to members of congress? >> well, i suspect the one thing that's really going to make congress get its act together and bang heads together if we see a replay of 2008 in top negotiations. if you remember back then when the congress refused to act, the markets crashed, and that panicked people. a lot of people are saying this time around they're requiring no market crash to get through it. >> and it spreads recession all over the world? >> absolutely. if you take a look at the consumer numbers that came out this week, you're starting to see consumers are saying is this
7:06 am
really a good time to buy that new thing like a sofa or car? we're starting to see it impacted in a very meaningful way. >> we saw the standard & poor's index to its lowest close in a month on monday. what's the ripple effect? you started to allude to it for the average consumer. >> i think the average consumer, at the beginning of this year, we were getting to the economy betting better. people were getting optimistic and we've seen politicians get in the way and uncertainty creep back in. when you get uncertainty, a lot of people put their spending on hold. and of course, that impacts businesses. >> we're not even giving anyone employment numbers. gillian, great to see you. >> thank you. we have a clear picture of a daring navy s.e.a.l. raid last weekend in somalia. their target, a leader of the terror group al shabaab who goes by the name of ikrimah.
7:07 am
a fire fight broke out and with the element of surprise gone, the s.e.a.l.s lost their chance to take him alive. the s.e.a.l. commander decided not to take in air strikes because of women and children in the compound. instead, he ordered his men to withdraw to a navy ship offshore. the aborted raid comes just two weeks after al shabaab launched an attack in a mall in kenya. john miller is a former fbi director. good morning. >> good morning. >> what do we know about the object of this search? >> ikrimah has been around for a while. although he hasn't been high-profile like other other leaders. but he goes back to the east africa leaders with his association with the bridge between al qaeda and somalia. so he's an individual who is connected to the plot, at the paradise hotel in 1998. this was an israeli tourist
7:08 am
spot. that plot came with the attempt to shoot down an israeli charter jet in 2002. so you're seeing somebody who been behind the scenes of a lot of serious plots an this is somebody that united states wants to neutralize because there are new plots. we saw the mall attack and plots of u.s. headquarters and other areas. >> there were plenty of drone attacks however the u.s. did not use a drone because of the number of women and children, civilians there. will the u.s. go back? >> so, i wouldn't be selling ikrimah any life insurance policies anytime soon. they're not going to hit that location in the same way. they've exposed the tact igs and procedures. but they certainly have an array of options. drone strikes are one. air strikes are another. it just depends on where he's on the move, where he can find a clear target on him. that won't be today or tomorrow. >> but will the possibility of
7:09 am
these kind of attacks coming in, to capture these people, cause them to drill down deeper and avoid detection? >> you know, there's that old saying coined by muhammad ali. you can run, but you cannot hide. these people, you know, in somalia, may operate out in the open, or they may go into hiding. if you look at the osama bin laden case, if they look for you long enough, they will find you. >> the other thing, john, we touched on this a little bit yesterday. the fact they didn't want him dead. it appears they want him alive? what do we think he knows? what do we want from him? >> well, he would have a lot of intelligence between the relationship between al shabaab and al qaeda. now the money goes back and forth. but also planned attacks, past attacks. it would be worth capturing him alive. but i'm also fairly sure part of the reason they were going in with people instead of air cover was the idea they understood there would be other people who could be collateral damage. when you do it face-to-face, you
7:10 am
have more of an opportunity for the targeted strike than the intended target. >> and because of what you reported previously that they may be dabbling in chemical weapons? >> and that's a fright thing step for al shabaab. they do have a program that the u.s. is concerned about. >> thank you. now to a health warning, officials are urging people to cook chicken thoroughly after a salmonella outbreak sickened hundreds in 18 states. and the government shutdown could be playing a role in the response. nearly all monitors of food-related illnesses at the cdc are on furlough this morning. the usda traces the tainted chicken to three foster farms facilities in california. but so far, no recall is being issued. and the supreme court hears arguments this morning in a campaign finance case. it is the first of several major issues that justices will take up this term. jan crawford is outside the supreme court. jan, good morning. what's on the docket? >> well, good morning, norah. good morning, charlie. i think this could be a term
7:11 am
where there's a controversy for everyone. they may not be on the same level of some of the cases we've seen in past years like the one that upheld the president's reform law or the case that struck down the ban on same-sex marriage. but we've got cases they're going to be tackle behind these doors this term to take on society's most contentious issues like affirmative action, abortion protests, public prayer and as you said, the money that could affect big money donors. all of these cases, of course, could divide this court just as they've divided society. the affirmative action case, for example, that's going to be argued next week. it involves a constitutional amendment from michigan that the voters passed. if the courts uphold that constitutional amendment which bans affirmative action, college admissions and government contract hiring, that could encourage other states across the country to pass similar bans. so these cases could dramatically affect american life. >> jan, as you know, there were
7:12 am
what people considered victories for liberals in the last session of the court. will that change in terms of the cut of these cases? >> well, you know, that's right, charlie. the health care case, that shocked everyone. i think this term, though, is going to be back on familiar ground. i would expect all of these cases to be wins for conservatives. the question, of course, is just how big these wins are going to be. and when we think about the court, you know, it's closely divided. you have to look at justice anthony kennedy. that key swing vote in the middle. he sometimes goes to the left in cases involving gay rights. but on cases involving rape and abortion, he's a solid conservative vote. that involves a law that sets up a buffer zone around the abortion clinics. the court has upheld those laws in the past. i would look for it to strike it down as a violation of free speech. this term is just one example, i think, waits the court's going to take a different approach this year. >> jan crawford, thank you.

after more than two decades of a breakthrough in a cold case murder involving a girl called baby hope. her body was found twool years ago in a cooler along a new york city highway. a source tells wcbs that the mother of baby hope is now identified through scientific evidence. police received a tip after posting flyers through the summer. baby hope was said to be between 3 and 5 years when her deposing body was found. house to of school children in boston looking for a ride to class after city cool bus drivers went on strike this morning. parents were given no advance notice. boston officials say half the buses were running but classes there be delayed or canceled. and academy award winner tom hanks made a surprise announcement about his health. his work as a actor may have predeposed him to a disease.

7:15 am
>> he'll have to watch what he eats very closely. he'll have to exercise regularly but there's no reason he can't live a perfectly normal life. >> reporter: cbs medical contributor dr. holly phillips says those extreme weight fluctuations can play a role. >> in dramatic weight gain or loss, the equilibrium of the body is completely off. that may dedispose him to diabetes later. >> reporter: hanks said losing weight is not an option. >> my doctor said look if you can weigh as much as you weighed in high school you'll essentially been completely healthy and not have type two diabetes. i ted to her, well, i'm going to have type two diabetes. there's no way i can weigh what i weighed in high school. >> what did you weigh in high school? >> i weighed 96 pounds. >> it's the most common form of

7:30 am
the driver of an suv while he laid on the ground. police say alexian lien is pulled out of his week. a good samaritan is shown stepping in to try to stop the assault. now the man who sparked the outrage breaking his violence. >> reporter: it was supposed to be a leisurely ride through new york city. in some in this group of motorcycles were intentionally slowing down other cars on the road so the rest could pass safely. kevin bresloff turned on his helmet cam shortly after the riders encountered the black range rover. >> speaking to him, he believed what he saw was a water bottle come out of the sun roof of the car. >> out of the suv? >> yes. >> as if someone -- >> correct. >> reporter: what happened next is not in dispute, there was a collision. then a confrontation.
7:31 am
suddenly, the black range rover peeled off, hitting some of the riders. a chase ensues until the suv, now with its tires slashed, gets stuck in traffic. some riders attacked the vehicle and eventually its driver. but that part isn't captured on bresloff's video. >> it was widely discussed after the video was posted on youtube, before the assault, the cameraman cut the camera off. is that what happened? >> we absolutely deny that allegation. we categorically deny that he in any way tampered with the video. >> or that there's any more after that. >> it's a shame, but that's when it died. the battery just stopped working, there's no more footage. >> reporter: bresloff told "cbs this morning," quote, based on the sole fact that i ride a motorcycle, the public has decided i am a thug or gang member. this is simply not true. i was a spectator of these unfortunate events that
7:32 am
occurred. what's going through his mind, is he saying, should i intervene? should i get in the middle of this? does he think he's still rolling, is he standing there to record it? >> i believe he thought he was still rolling. from speaking to him, it happened so quickly. in other words, it was shocking, terrifying, never expected this to happen at all. and literally was just documenting it, like you document it from the beginning to the end, in other words, i'm taping it. originally, it was i want the police to see that this man hit a motorcycle. ran over motorcycle riders. >> bresloff is not being treated like a suspect. he is considered a witness. and he doesn't expect to face any charges. and it's important to note, his video is not the only one in this case. the chain of events was captured on surveillance cameras. highway cameras, cell phone videos, ipads and other
7:33 am
bystanders as we saw before this piece. that wasn't bresloff's video of the actual beating, some of those pictures are starting to come out. >> what do make of the man who took the video. >> i sat with him last night for a while. i took him through his story. he seems like a guy who has fallen into this thing well over his head. i don't think he expected this. he shot that video, charlie, uploaded it to youtube. that's how he handled the video. it had 4,000 hit it's in morning. it's got 6 or 7 million now. this is not what he thought was going to happen here. >> do you believe that the battery went out before the attack was happening? >> you know, that is the kind of thing that begs the question. but the police have executed a search warrant at his home. they've been through his materials, where's the rest, there's no indication that it exists. >> let's go back. there's another new developments in the road rage case. a fourth person has been arrested. what do you know about that
7:34 am
individual, or undercover cops of other witnesses? >> another arrest of one who actually led to the involvement of the assault. now, we have a situation where a detective has come forward. another police officer is getting ready to come forward. that didn't happen yesterday. there are two other police officers who were in the ride. society police department has not actually sat down and done the q and a with all of them. so this picture is unfolding more slowly than investigators would like. >> all right. thank you. >> thanks, john. a senate committee is revealing evidence of fraud and abuse in the government's disability payment system. "60 minutes" reported the probe sunday night. the investigation focuses on an attorney and a judge in west virginia. as chip reid reports, the two men are suspected of working together too closely. >> reporter: eric c. conn said to be the third highest paid disability lawyer in the country stood before a senate hearing monday accused of perpetrating massive fraud against the social security administration. four witnesses testified against
7:35 am
conn and judge david b. daugherty, alleging they collaborated. a 168-page report lays out their alleged abuse. daugherty is said to have awarded an unusual number of benefits, $2.5 billion while conn would seek out doctors with suspicious credentials. melinda hicks worked for conn. >> he referred to those doctors as whore doctors. >> reporter: the report claims these doctors would sign a claimant's form pavg the way for daugherty to review benefits. 1 in 3 reviewed revealed identical paperwork. receiving $1.5 million in lawyers fees. jennifer griffith and her co-worker sarah carver also testified monday they processed disability claims in huntington,
7:36 am
west virginia. in 2011, they filed a federal lawsuit against conn and daugherty under the false claims act which allows whistle-blowers to get a portion of money recovered in fraud cases. >> with judge daugherty and eric conn, what i've seen is 100%. if you look at that statistic alone, what's the likelihood that every claimant that walks in your office is disabled. >> reporter: exa"60 minutes" tracked down conn. you can't track down your alleged disability and work in court? >> well, that's tempting. >> reporter: at monday's hearing he was even more restrained. >> i would respectfully assert my constitutional right not to testify here today, sir. >> reporter: he left the hearing before he was called to testify. more than 11 million americans
7:37 am
receive disability insurance. that's up 20% in the last is sick years. senator tom coburn who spearheaded the investigation said that this case is just one example of widespread abuse. >> some in congress refuse to acknowledge that the system is broken and in dire need of oversight. people will pay the price of our dithering. >> reporter: analysts estimate that the disability fund could be bankrupt in just 18 months. for "cbs this morning," chip reid washington. >> getting a lot of attention there. and a husband and a wife got lost in the wilderness. they make a risky decision, he goes for help while she stays behind. >> this is so surreal. i mean, one minute, you're alive, the next you could be dead. >> how they made it out and why the government shutdown started them on a path to trouble. that story's next on "cbs this morning."

8:45 am
done it better. wow. >> high praise. >> it's a wonderful gift because you write your own novel, but you're a gift of the central character. >> you so something different about this james bond. number one, you show a more vulnerable side. for instance, not to get too graphic because people are eating honey nut cheerios. at one point in the book, he throws up. at another point, he cries. all of which were unbelievable at the time but it's so unlike james bond that we though. >> you see bond filtered through the movies. you go back and see bond, he sees something unpleasant or gori he often -- you know. >> yeah. >> but, no, he's a complex, troubled man with a dark side with melancholy, far from the cartoon character. >> who's your favorite actor? >> well, in three the films i've written. i sean connery and pierce
8:46 am
