bob costa.> the white house is banking that the republicans are going to stumble here and they're making a poor argument. i think ted cruz, he may be on to something. frustration over obama care is growing. and he believe there's can be a grassroots movement somehow that builds against this law and forces the white house's hand, because he smelled weakness. when the president delayed the employer mandate, if he did that, maybe he'll delay the individual mandate. >> let me follow up. bob costa. in the next 24 to 4 hours, robert, there is a very good chance the house leadership will create what i'm calling plan b, okay. so whenever this senate passes the cr back to the house, whatever it's going to happen here, if it does, i don't know, this budget-busting may stop it. it's going to be something. what i hear, either the house is going to ask for a deal on a one-year delay of the individual mandate, or the house is going to ask a deal to end the exemption that congress and its staff has from obama

prosecutors gave the jury a negative view of jerry sandusky not testifying, saying he did talk to bob costasnbc in the now infamous interview in the days after sandusky's arrest. >> "the attorney general reminded the jury that he was as good a questioner as bob costas, something that had nothing to do with the trial except to get the jury to bemoan the fact that sandusky did not testify and the attorney general didn't get a chance to question him." >> reporter:but prosecutor asst attorney general james barker said the jury was told to consider there was a delay in reporting. he said how much testimony had to be given to prove sandusky was a child molester that it was overwhelming evidence of guilt. >> pam: as for the bob costas interview prosecutors say the point was sandusky did not answer questions about molesting children. >> pam: sandusky was convicted of 45 counts, deemed a sexually violent predator, and is serving a 30- to 60-year stories... >> pam: now for today's market update. >> pam: the federal reserve's surprise decision to keep its economic stimulus in place have boosted stocks

people like bob costas -- >> rose: i think bob gave the eulogy. >> bob and i wrote that together. >> rose: i didn't than. called him to come to dallas and we did not know that he was terminal and mickey said, "listen, i want to be stronger when i see you. and then we can have some fun. and i'm looking forward to seeing you guys now that i'm sober." he knew that he was dying. so when it was all done, bob called me and i went to dallas, and the night before the funeral we stayed up like two high school kids cramming for a final. and we we hugged each other like we were there to bury a very loved relative. but what we really were burying was our childhood glu have a remarkable quality for friendship. >> i'm fortunate. i have great friends. >> rose: and oscar is in here, too. how many times, eight? >> nine. >> rose: what was about you and the oscars? you did it. and this is a hard thing. we've seen a lot of people do it okay. but did you it with a certain-- the proof is in the pudding. they wanted you you to come back every year. >> i wanted to make it special. i tried to change the job

besides the bureaucracy that bob costa mentioned, the fact is social security, medicare and medicaidt, period. and that is one of the great problems and stories of our time. and unfortunately neither the senate nor the house has come to grips with the fact that those age-old entitlements are bankrupt. we are looking at a $600 billion or $700 billion deficit if we calculated it right. and that's going to be one of the key points. i have to get out. >> can i please come back and debate that with you? >> yes, another time. jared bernstein and bob costa, thank you very much, gentlemen. >>> now it's time for our next special guest, texas govern rick perry is about to join us live to talk about the shutdown and taxes and more. he joins us. texas, the texas economy, stick around, folks. governor perry is coming up. i was made to work. make my mark with pride. create moments of value. build character through quality. and earn the right to be called a classic. the lands' end no iron dress shirt. starting at 49 dollars. seasonal... doesn't begin to describe it. running a bike shop has it's ups

here now, bob costas. >>> in a wild and somewhat strange unless you're a giants fan entertaining gameevail, 36-31. the game ball, is going to go to tony romo and sean lee. their likeliness will be displayed on the sunday night football bus. romo seemed to be in doubt after he was crushed late in the first half wind up going 36 for 49 with a couple of touchdowns and sean lee is one of the stars of a defense that forces five turnovers. the giants had six turnovers overall and that obviously did them in as we turn it over to michele. >> tony, just before halftime, you took quite a shot to the ribs. when you came out of the locker room, we had shots of you grimacing. did you just fight through the pain or did it dissipate as time went by? >> it's football. you just take shots throughout football games and keep playing. believe me, there's 28 other guys that went through the same thing. it was a good game. hard fought. good challenge. glad to come out on top. >> how do you expect the ribs to feel tomorrow? >> they'll be all right. more than anything it's just, you know, just happens in foo

. >> we are out of time tonight and because of tonight's game, football night in america with bob costasis next. we will see you right after the game at around 8:30. >> have a great night, folks. enjoy the football game. good night. some things won't last 25 years. ah! woof! some things will. some things won't last 25 years. ah! woof! some things will. >> announcer: next february the one event that unites the world with the greatest athletes on snow and ice, the 2014 olympic winter games coming to the networks of nbc universal. >>> this is the scene in baltimore, maryland, home of the reining super bowl champions, the baltimore ravens and the site of the 2014 nfl kickoff with keith urban performing on a floating stage. the ravens themselves, however, are most of the way across the country here in denver starting their title defense in broncos country. why? because of a scheduling conflict with their baseball neighbors, the orioles. the stadiums are side by side,

here now, bob costas. >>> final score, patriots, 30, falcons 23. those who left the georgia dome early, and they were many, those at home who might have decided to channel surf, missed a wild finish. in the end, things broke bad for the falcons. a flurry but a fourth down pass falls incomplete in the end zone and the patriots walk out of here at 4-0. the falcons are dumped to 1-3 and they'll be three games back in the division if the saints beat the dolphins tomorrow night. three players go on the sunday night football bus, tom brady is one of them. he threw a couple of touchdowns tonight. didn't have one picked off. 20 of 31 for 3167. talib had a tremendous night in the defensive secondary for the patriots including breaking up the game's last pass on legarrette blount had a touchdown run all three of them up on the bus. two of them blount and brady with michele. >> michele: tom, things got hairy down the stretch there. that fourth and one snap, what happened there? >> just poor execution. we'll work on it this week and try not to let it happen ag

the reviews with bob costas, they said a dozen plus republican senators are fuming over cruz making aed seem like support for a law that they hate. >> this has been one of the strangest weeks i have had in washington. i say that because as soon as we listed ted cruz, our featured guest this week, i got unsolicited be surge and questions not from democrats, but top republicans who hammered cruz. >> the president has been taking an advantage of the fight into the republican party. he gets in with the congressional black caucus on saturday, blasting republicans for governing high prices. >> this is an interesting thing to ponder. your top agenda is making sure 20 million people don't have health insurance. you would be willing to shut down the government and potentially default for the first time in the united states history. >> cruise told a magazine i don't know the conservative that didn't feel embarrassed. that will go a long way to repair the relationship with john mccain. the senate is expected to strip the health care members in the bill and kick it back to the house. the request

they still kept up lupica who's not a very bright fellow, poor man's bob costas. >> chuck todd tweeted the wrong name of the shooter. that stayed on twitter for a while. then nbc pulled it back. piers morgan ifs and spends a whole lot of time on air saying there's that darn ar-15. the ar-15 probably saved lives. the ar-15 was used by the campus police that were on scene and maybe stopped some of the carnage towards the end of it. there hate to be first over precedes their interest in being right, and that's a problem. >> yeah, you'd rather be second or third and right than first and wrong. >>> up neck, the president's own former defense secretaries are slamming his serious strategy, but is obama tone deaf to his critics even from his own team? we'll play the tape ahead on "the five." don't go away. ♪ baby even the losers get lucky sometimes ♪ >>> welcome back, everybody. the american people didn't like it. congress didn't like it. hell, members of his own party didn't even like it. the it is president obama's bm-away strategy for syria, but the commander in chief can be tone deaf at ta

reminded me of the exchange on the aurora movie theater shooting in colorado, when bill o'reilly asked bob costas if costas had been in that theater, would he rather duck down and hide or be armed and have the ability to defend himself? >> i don't want to have a gun on me, no -- >> okay. >> in that situation, in the dark, in the confusion -- >> i respect that. >> i think it's highly more likely that there would be additional carnage, bullets would be flying wildly all over the place. >> this seemingly basic logic of not having a bunch of people with loaded weapons in a crowded space is actually put into practice by the people who run gun shows. from the website of bill goodman's gun shows, "for your safety, please make sure all magazines and weapons are empty before entering a show. patrons who bring loaded magazines or weapons into the show will be refused entry and may be subject to prosecution." and i'd argue that same bedrock logic applies just as well outside of gun shows. [ man ] look how beautiful it is. ♪ honey, we need to talk. we do? i took the trash out. i know. and thank you so much f

costa of the national review joins us at the capitol. and here with us in new york is democratic strategist, professor bob shrum. >> robert costa, you areorting this afternoon that the house is looking at passing a one-week continuing resolution to prevent a shutdown. that's the best we can do, we're on a week-to-week basis, even detroit hasn't been reduced to weekly budgets. the city of mogadishu doesn't do a weekly budget, but the united states is going to continue a resolution for one week? >> that's exactly right, martin. it seems like the house right now wants to avoid a shutdown. but at the same time, they know they're dealing with a conservative flank of the party that wants to keep up the fight. so what i'm hearing from my top leadership sources and sources in the house, and in the senate, is that republicans will push for a one-week cr to phubbed the government, avoid a shutdown and keep the talks going. >> one week. fantastic. professor shrum, in more than 21 hours, cruz managed to veer from everything from dr. seuss to the nazis, as you know. in his comparison with the affordable care act. i would like you to take a listen to

let's get the latest from ace political reporter robert costa. bobd harry reid cancel the vote? >> harry reid has been trying to herd democratic hats for the past week and he's quite a bit of a problem doing so. he can't find a democratic vote. you look at a lot of mod r moderate democrats. they're abandoning the president. >> i'm being told thatod moderae democrats. they're abandoning the president. >> i'm being told thatd moderat democrats. they're abandoning the president. >> i'm being told that moderate democrats. they're abandoning the president. >> i'm being told thatmoderate democrats. they're abandoning the president. >> i'm being told that the leadership both houses, neither will call a vote if they think the president will lose. they do not want to embarrass the president. now, am i hearing that right? are you hearing something like that, as well? >> that's correct. first of all, from what i hear from my house sources, it will never come to a vote in the house unless it first passes the senate. and right now when you have harry reid delayin

bob's audio, but we appreciate that. thank you very much for the emotional story. moving on here, talk about pulling off a robbery that's just so wrong on so many levels. with firefighters from contra costaattling nonstop against the mount diablo fire, someone was busy ripping them off back at the station. while they were out protecting lives and property, a thief broke into station seven in walnut creek. that burglar pride in past a locked door and then proceeded rip off personal belongings, including wedding rings, watches, and ipads. firefighters are stunned. >> somebody came into the fire station and stole from us after we are out there helping people. it's devastating. >> police believe that a burglary happened sometime on sunday night. then early monday somebody tried to break into station three on rothmore parkway, but a firefighter woke up and scared that thief away. walnut creek police are right now investigating, but truth be told, without a description, it does not have much to go on. contra costa fire now considering how it can enhance security at their station. >> we should also mention that the mount diablo fire is 70% contained. they hope for full containment by friday. >>
