he xively cynical, he has immediately every time he has faced a challenge or a bump in the road, he hasome very partisan and he has become -- and he has looked back rather than being someone who is visionary and together and bringing together, he has done exactly the opposite. it happened with the stimulus bill and health care. the american public had very high expectations. those high expectations were driven by and large part by president obama himself. the obama brand was this unified partisan brand about the man that could change washington. because he made it about one person and the challenges are so great, he essentially overpromised and underdelivered. >> obviously i disagree. when you have a close -- republicans in congress who made it very clear from day one that their objective was to destroy the obama presidency, and they have consistently time and time and time again stood in the way of progress and said no and not been willing to be a loyal opposition party and come to the table with ideas. be all opposition party and come to the table with table-- instead from the beginni

monica wright has four. i wouldn't be surprised to see him isolate whoever monica wright is guarding because she has been on sandra garcia the last couple of trips because virginia is playing small. let's see if mike petersen puts the ball in the hands of the defender monica wright. >> mike: let's take a look at our fast break play of the game. we talked about the wake forest guards playing well. here is an example. >> debbie: thomas takes it to the rim. no one contests her offensively. she makes a nice crossover move and finishes. the smallest player on the floor getting all the way to the rim. >> mike: brooke thomas has been kind of up and down at times this year, but when she plays like this and also tiffany roulhac coming off the bench, what a lift it gives wake forest. >> debbie: there's not many games that brooke thomas has had more assists than turnovers. when she takes care of the ball, they are very solid in what they run. i said it in the first half she can take this entire wake forest team to anot

he has been reflexively cynical, actually, and that every time he has faced a bump in the road he hasecome very partisan. he hasn't looked back rather than been a visionary. he has not unified. it happened with the stimulus bill and now with healthcare. the american public had high expectations which were driven largely by president obama himself. the obama brand so to speak was a unifying, post-partisan brand about one man who could help to change washington. because the challenges are so much greater than what one person can tackle themselve, he over-promised and under- delivered. guest: i disagree. when you have republicans who said their objective was to destroy the obama presidency and have time and again stood in a way of progress, and not be willing to be all opposition party and come to the table with table-- instead from the beginning it was about republicans figuring out the best strategy to take down obama. at first there were concerned because his poll numbers were so high. then they felt they found an opening with healthcare be in their waterloo. congress bears some respo

this series case review has been leaked but it has not been published.the summary will be published at the appropriate time. i have taken as the secretary for children the advise of the lord who did -- he says it's the wrong advise but lord leavy is respected right across the country for the work is done. i and the secretary of state for children are taking the advice of many children's societies, professional organizations on the matter. i think it's important to recognize the issue here is what lessons we learned, how we have learned these lessons is a matter for people now to look at the summary of the series case review. i asked them to consider the anonymity of the children as an important issue and also the freedom of children to say to the inquiry what they think is happening what they think has gone wrong and these are important issues that the opposition will consider. we went through this before on the baby peter case and it was agreed then, it was agreed then that we would have the report from lordly depegging made the recommendrecommendations

what has he got to hide? >> now from london, prime minister's questions from the british house of commons. british prime minister gordon brown began this week's question time by pledging u.k. humanitarian -- humanitarian aid to haiti, following the earthquake there run tuesday. he answered questions on whether he would appear before the iraq inquiry. now, prime minister's questions. >> order. questions for the prime minister. bill wiggin. >> number one, mr. speaker. >> before listing my engagements, i know that the whole house will wish to join me in paying tribute to captain daniel read, from 11 explosive ordnance disposal regiment, royal logistic corps. he died in afghanistan on monday, undertaking the dangerous work of protecting his fellow soldiers and civilians from explosive devices. the courage and selflessness of this work is truly breathtaking. his sacrifice will not be forgotten, and we send our sincere condolences to his family and friends. i know that the whole house will wish to join me in paying

that has been the big issue in this health care debate, which has been that the energy has been much more on the side of the folks who do not want change and then on the side of the people who do pri in orde. in order for congress to work this out, they have to hear more from people who do what that change. congress represents certain districts, so there are going to be certain districts were the cause are in tents on the side of, and other calls that are on the side against. we have seen across the board, and we saw this in massachusetts, one of the earliest polls, that for people who are voting for brown, they overwhelmingly disliked the idea of health care reform. the people have supporting martha coakley felt relatively okay about health care reform but were not as passionate about it. host: we have another caller from massachusetts on the air. we will get to you in a second- rate i want to ask michael kranish-we will get to you in a second -- i want to ask michael kranish, about 3/4 of them voted for scott brown according to the numbers out there. independents -- do they get out

but there has to be a policy that has to be clarified.egislation, or your proposed bill, which mandates consultation and of the dni makes all kinds of sense to me. the intelligence director should be consulted. but importantly, there must be a policy. one of the things we learned on the 9/11 commission is we got into this interrogation, and this is a difficult business, interrogating people. and you better give very sure that you have got the right people asking the questions. we can have differences of opinion as to what kind of pressure ought to be put on a suspect. but interrogating people takes patience, and it takes skill, and you have to train an interrogator very carefully. i am attracted to the idea of a high-value interrogation group. i do not think we have paid enough attention to the professionalism, if you would, of the interrogator. i am not acquainted with the details of that, but i hope it is developing highly skilled people who know how to interrogate. an awful lot is at stake in finding out all you possibly can. >> thank

auburn has not led.d by 19 points in the first half. >> bob: this is where your set-plays come in. trying to find wall. cousins can. >> carter: tries to no-look again, gets it back and fouled by lucas hargrove. >> bob: this is one of the reasons kentucky is such a good team. they have balance offensively. not only inside and outside balance, but balance among players. right here, they go to cousins. patterson is in there, also taking up space. they can go inside when they need to get a play. and get a foul. >> carter: cousins gets the first. he started off very poor from the foul line this year, demarcus cousins did. but he's been knocking them down of late. five of nine today to bring the average up to 64%. he's getting both of the big foul shots. since the game was tied at 60, 8-2 run by kentucky. >> bob: he had 18 points and 18 rebounds against lewouiewio e louisville, the arch enemy of kentucky. he can play. >> carter: reed off of knox. cousins recovers. knox has to go around the big man. foul on dem

but what has happened since medicare advantage has come in? the reality is medicare is now paying on average 14% more to these private plans than the same costs for beneficiaries under traditional medicare. in some cases, as high as 50% more. that's $12 billion a year more than these beneficiaries stated medicare. basically, we are giving a a $12 billion subsidy, a a $12 billion subsidy to these companies. and this -- again, don't take my word for it. this is from june, 2009, medpac report." we estimate that in 2009, medicare pays about $12 billion more for enrollees of medicare advantage plans than it would if they were in the fee-for-service medicare." $12 billion slush fund. now, we're saying that we're going to reduce some of those subsidies and i hear my friends on the other side say oh, my gosh, this is going to cost -- medicare is going to take away all these benefits and all that other kind of stuff. well, not necessarily. right now, we know that according to the c.b.o., our bill will lower seniors' medicare premiums by $30 billion ove

it has to be a package of things. it has to be technology. it has to be expertise. it has to be intelligence. it has to be cooperation with our international partners. all of this has to come together seamlessly and has to be done on a daily basis. >> do we have to compromise some additional privacy with full body scanners at the airports in order to keep up with the terrorists? >> i think there's a way to make sure we maintain the type of privacy that is expected by the american public but also provide the security that is needed? what we're trying to do now is strike that balance. looking at the technology available. looking at the practices we use. but there has to be this very healthy balance. we maintain that privacy standard, but at the same time, do everything possible to prevent attacks. >> body scanners, do you think they should be deployed more widely at the airports? >> we're looking at it thoroughly. at the amsterdam airport, there were full body scanners in place. they weren't used, in fact, for the airline coming here to the united states. i think thos

the world has changed and our revenue system has not kept pace. instead it is hemorrhaged with offshore tax havens costing us, according to the permanent subcommittee on investigations, over $100 billion a year in lost revenue. if anyone doubts a a pro-ration of offshore tax havens, i would ask them to google offshore hacks havens. we did that last year and got over a million hits including my favorite, live offshore tax free by putting your funds in offshore tax havens. mr. president, the reality is this, with we have a dramatic imbalance between spending and revenue. the revenue is the green line, the spending is the red line. and look what's happened with the economic downturn. revenue is at its lowest point in 50 years as measured as a share of the economy. the revenue is less than 15% of the gross domestic product of the country. spending has skyrocketed to 26% of the gross domestic product of the country. you can see that is far higher than it has been going back 30 years. and, of course, we understand why. in the middle of a sharp economic

but it has not worked that way. it has caused too much attention. every time something happens to a black, it is major news. something happens to a white, it is ok because they deserve it. they sanctioned slavery or something like that. they keep it in the news daily. host: your take is that race relations have gone worse? caller: yes, look at haiti. we should help those people? i agree that we have to help, but they have to take some initiatives for themselves. there have been so many gangs coming out of that country. violence. it seems to be growing worse and worse. that is why i think it is getting worse, sir. host: riverside california -- riverside, california. welcome. caller: i wanted to reinforce what the last man said to a slight degree. as long as people are going to walk around and make excuses about the situation, nothing will change. if you look at history the world over, no one expects you if you do not put up a fight. people are manhandling others, putting up signs that they shall overcome? that is not the answer. i am 50 years old. if

the military has that. i think as soon as you can you want to hand that off to civilian leadership in this type of thing. >> lehrer: i know it's an impossible to pinpoint it correct, you know, right on the money here but what would you suggest based on what you've read and heard, what's the problem down this? who should be in charge right now? not yesterday, not tomorrow but right now, who should be running things, general? >> well, i think they've turned it over to the u.n., but if the u.n. isn't doing that, i think it's in the family of americas, i think we should step in and take charge until we can sort all this out. i think they need to establish humanitarian operation center and bring everyone into it. bring the governmental agencies into it, bring the non-governmental agencies into it, the other nations, the u.n. and get everything in, sort it out, get it prioritize and start tasking missions and executing things. >> lehrer: who needs to do that. >> that's the u.n. responsibility. we've done this, ge

the military has been great, the response by the state department has been great. i cannot say enough about it. the people in haiti know it, and i am grateful. i would like to thank president bush for agreeing to do this and for the concern he showed for haiti. before this happened my foundation worked with the people on the aids problems in haiti, and i saw how good they work. finally, let me say that i don't have to read the website because they did, but i want to say something about this. all we need to do is get through medicine and water and a secure place for them today. but when we start the rebuilding effort, we want to do what i did with the president's father in the tsunami. we want to be a place where the money -- people will know their money will be well-spent. we will ensure ongoing integrity of the process. we want to stay with this over the long run. my job with the un is not at all in conflict with this because i am the outside guy. my job is to work with donor nations and international agencies, business people around the world to try to get them t

montgomery meanwhile has three fouls in the ball game and is on the bench. excuse me, she is still playing with them. can't afford to take montgomery out of the game. that's what you have to keep in mind, substitution coming back from an energy. coming out of locker room, halftime is quite a long time to cool off. got to get right back in the action. foul ball against virginia. >> lachina: you watch monica wright off the ball, which she does here, making sure officials don't think she's pushing off there. maybe just a little bit of a stabili stabilizer. >> lachina: like i'm not doing anything, not doing anything, all of a sudden -- >> jenn: ardossi gets taken out as she's shooting by gerson, really undercut on that shot. that's the first foul by lexie gerson. ardossi has been fairly effective in knocking down that mid-range jump shot when georgia tech found her there. eight points in the game, three rebounds. >> lachina: ardossi a sophomore on this team, the last time tech visited john paul jones arena, which has to be one of the most exciting games i'm seen

that has now dropped to 5%. they cannot conduct a war in their own country against elements of their population without the support of their own propagation. and they did not have that. in 2005 and 2006, these were performance art operations that were designed to satisfy the u.s.. to the operations today are real operations. -- the operations today are real operations. pakistan is changing. will they go after the taliban or al qaeda? who knows? the close alignment between the american strategic objectives and pakistani strategic objectives have been achieved since the soviets invaded in 1929. two final statements. the train has left the station, but i think is important -- because the president has already made his decision. but doing less, the cut and run option that bruce manchin, or doing it lighter -- that bruce mentioned, or doing it lighter, we have to consider that we have already done the do nothing option in the 1980's. into that vacuum is that the taliban and al qaeda. and then doing it letter, we saw

bwi marshall has four of the full body machines. passengers are given a clear description as to what they can expect. despite the fact that some civil rights troops claimed they are a violation of privacy, most passengers did not seem to mind almost naked images of themselves looked at by employees. >> if this will save my life i don't have a problem. i don't have anything to hide. if one does, then possibly it is not a viable option. >> i think it is great for security. i don't disagree with it at all. >> i am fine with it. >> we found a few passengers with a problem, but they did not feel comfortable going on camera. like it or not, the technology seems like it is here to stay in hopes of making your flight that much safer there. >> safety is the most important thing. whatever it takes to keep america safe, that is a small inconvenience. i would rather be alive. >> for more information on these full body scanners, we provided a link to the web site at wbaltv.com. just click on news links. >> this morning joe biden is mourning the

virginia still has to play defense. tech comes down with :37 seconds. >> man-to-man defense, walthour. >> jenn: sasha tries to drive inside. good hand by edwards. ardossi shot it short, then the other edwards grabs the rebound. those sisters made an impact in a couple of different ways in the first half. ten seconds on the clock as kellum looks up at it. >> lachina: had to be careful. >> jenn: foul on kellum. a good call by the official. i thought kellum forced things. she had a lot of attention over on her side of the floor. got a little bit too deep with the basketball georgia tech, in good defensive position. >> lachina: maybe too much confidence off that game-winning shot against boston college in the last one. 1.5 on the clock for georgia tech. they could theoretically get a shot off. see inbound. goodlett have to take it. not quite on the mark for sasha goodlett. georgia tech does maintain a one-point lead, 26-25 over virginia here in this first half in a game that georgia tech really jumped out and got a good lea

çbut the board has disappeared. it has been dormant since that time. have now a massive capacity in this country to develop data on individuals. the board should be the champion of seeing that it does not intrude on the privacy and civil liberties. we continue to believe that that board is critical to the overall functioning, and we urged president obama to reconstitute its come up to. its members, and to allow them full access to the information to perform will reconsider an essential function. let me give you one more leftover from the 9/11 report. when those of us who are citizens come down to washington and want to find out about transportation or about lavar mental protection or education, we can go and we can hear from the various committees and participate as much as we can as part of our democracy. we can do so with intelligence. it is secret. and yet as we know, the functioning of the intelligence agencies is absolutely essential to this fight we now have. it will be essential in the future. the public cannot really get involved because of the

has also stepped up security. controversial body scanners will be introduced at airports as soon as it is practical. each machine cost around 100,000 pounds. both countries have closed their embassies in yemen, where the suspect is thought to be recruited. britain and the u.s. say they are continuing to work with the yemenese government to combat terrorism. >> joining me from manchesr with what this all means is an aviation analyst, chris g yates. >> body scanning serves a purpose, but not necessarily enough. the process of security has to be a system of symptomsystem we're talking about technique and technology. we need to be looking at enhanced profiling of people destined for those high-risk flights. yes, we need to set up the technological approach as well. body scanning answers one issue, but we need to address the liquids issue as well. we have no capability in the area. >> and this man was carrying this. >> that's right. there is nothing t stop him. not the metal detector or the x- ray device. body scanning

finally, once you look at what the commission has done on the entirety of what the policy has been since 2004, it doesn't change. the entirety of the policy boils down to its objective assessment of the commissioners' view of the artistic worth of or merit of the works. >> so that is why saving private ryan get in and the blues get out? >> right. but the entire system of an expert conferencor is alien to the first amendment. you could say that the policy that the commission urminged in the pacifica case was functionally different from the policy that the supreme court struck down in the reno case because of the restrained enforcement policy, which did not go after lit uses and also gave heavyweight to the representative nature, now by discarding the restrained enforcement policy, the commission has essentially made its policy identical to the policy that the supreme court struck down in the reno case. >> it is the same language, isn't it? >> it is the identical language. and in the final analysis, you always have to consider this is a worse case than reno. in reno, the supreme court was

he has 13 of 28 point. they really have to get the ball inside to the bell fellow for both teams. >> matt: derrio green was outstanding. 13 points, and spears was greet. the two of them need to be terrific in the second half for charlotte to come away with the, we. >> steve: i think defense is going to be key if the second half. >> matt: there we're ready to go with the start of the second half, as both teams are back on the court. temple on the way to their third straight 20-win season. 17-3. charlotte 14-5 entering this game. in charlotte wins tonight, they would have a share of first place in the a-10. if temple wins they would have sole position as they would be the only undefeated team in the conference. >> steve: let's see if temple get this fall to eric and allen. that's what they're going to do, get it inside. >> matt: inside to eric, be that shot won't go, braswell, as he pulls it down, and fouled before the shot, and that's on, his third 37 and that's not good, this early in the half. temple,y don

i don't think he has ever -- i don't think he has realized it, but he has never done it, and that is what the president has to be. >> i agree with the last point very much, which is that obama has not cured over the heads of congress. however, just on public opinion, it is mutable. public opinion was strongly in favor of health-care reform, and we did something that looks like a success or a selling of it by the president, my guess is it will go back up. it is like the iraq war. americans were before it before they were against it, and i think you will see the same correction with health care. >> i think health care could become the poster boy for what professor steele was talking about, which is a profound disappointment in the way that the public's business gets done. all the details are not known, of course, but the managers bill which was introduced by harry reid, in which hundreds of aspects of the legislation were changed, in many cases to accommodate the by off of individual senators -- the buy- off of individual senators, when is fully reporting, i believe it will be profound

so what has worked, what has not worked.when i came into the budget committee in 2001, we were debating what to do with the largest surpluses in the history of the country. largest surpluses in the history of the country. that period was focused on innovation and education, but very much on balancing the budget and in growing jobs, 20 million new jobs plus. eight years coming in, different economic policies were put into place, ones that focus on tax cuts at the top, hoping they would trickle down to middle class families, two wars not paid for, prescription krug bill not paid for. we go from huge surpluses, largest in the history of the country, to largest deficits. so i don't think it's insignificant as we now look at different policies, now we are looking at how do we go back to in some ways what worked in the '90s what created jobs and surpluses, to look at what has happened in the last year. the first thing is the fact that -- excuse me, senator nelson -- the fact that this is not insignificant, mr. chairman. that we ar

storm has passed. but families like yours and communities like elyria are still reeling from the devastation left in its wake. folks have seen jobs you thought would last forever disappear. they can do things that cannot be shipped off to china comic as they are so attuned to their customers' needs. they have 77 employees. now they have 44. they want to start hiring back. it is going to take a little time. they are starting to see orders pick up just a little bit. it is tough. businesses shut down. i've heard about how the city government here is bare bones. go buy groceries like you used to because of cuts in the county transit system. toughest decades our middle class has faced in generations. this has been a decade where pedaled faster and faster, only to find themselves stuck in the behind. the average income actually flat lines, in some cases went down. that is before the crisis. for many of you,even as you've found your paychecks shrinking, even as you've found the value of your biggest asset - y

has that set up-has that been set up yet? guest: yes, it has.at is a new bureaucracy, and it is the council for comparative effectiveness. they are still setting up the whole thing. guest: right, and do they set up the treatment protocols for the doctors? and if the doctors do not follow them, they will be penalized, essentially? guest: when you marry it with the health care bill they are trying to push through congress, that is when those two lines connected to the whole idea behind comparative effectiveness is to have smart bureaucrats determined what procedures are most cost-effective in should be used and use that on a carrot stick on physicians. what you will be reimbursed for or not based on the recent findings of comparative effectiveness. caller: well, isn't that bureaucrats deciding who is treated and why? guest: yes. caller: the second part is the coordinator of technology, who will guide decisions at the time and place of care. guest: so all of these apparatus being set up are basically designed under this kind of a system where the g

the president's palace has been damaged. we have pictures of what it looked like before the quake and after the devastation. we don't have those yet, but we will bring them to you. the presidential palace we can affirm is in ruins. there are reports now of dead bodies and fears of mass casualties. we have learned at least two americans are believed to be trapped in the rubble. as we said, anderson is on his way to haiti right now. tomorrow he will be on the ground reporting live on the devastation and the rescue efforts and that does it for this special edition of "360." thank you for watching. our coverage continues right now on cnn international. >>> this is cnn breaking news. >>> i'm colleen mcedwards. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. this is "world report," and we begin with the aftermath of an earthquake, a powerful magnitude 7.0 quake has hit large parts of the haitian capital. fears that hundreds of people are dead in that rubble, and here's that picture of the cloud over the skyline.

but our work has only begun. tonight i want to discuss what we've been doing and what we will continue to do to not only pull kentucky out of this recession but also position it for future six s. the same for goals that i sat for this state when i became governor will continue to guide my decisions. one, to create and retain jobs. [applause] two, to help families survived this recession. [applause] three, to find ways to attack the fundamental problems holding this state back. [applause] and four, to make government as lean as efficient and as open as possible. [applause] now let me elaborate on those goals. number one, jobs. nothing, nothing is more important to our economic recovery than creating and saving jobs in kentucky. for families, a job is the foundation for financial security. for the state, jobs are the foundation for funding programs and services needed by our people. two tools out and helped us tremendously through strategic use of federal stimulus funds we've created or saved some 4200 jobs that ot

particularly for somebody who has been -- who has run for president, run against barack obama.ink she's doing a, from what i can tell -- now, i don't know the internals of what goes on there. i think she's doing a good job. i've disagreed with hillary clinton quite often but i have tremendous respect for her. >> larry: always good to see you, rudy. we'll see you in new york. >> thank you, larry. >> larry: mayor rudy giuliani, the former mayor of new york city. >>> the roman polanski case is back in court today. ♪ who knew the store would go and check my credit score ♪ ♪ now all they let me have is this dinosaur ♪ ♪ hello hello hello can anybody hear me? ♪ ♪ i know i know i know i shoulda gone to ♪ ♪ free credit report dot com! ♪ that's where i shoulda gone! coulda got my knowledge on! ♪ ♪ vo: free credit score and report with enrollment in triple advantage.

but he has no shoes, and he has no shirt on. >> he was just pointing and yelling. even when we went to land, he wouldn't sit down. he stood up in the back of the plane. >> if you could imagine that. the unruly passenger was taken into custody by police in colorado springs. he is expected to be charged on monday with interference with a flight crew, a federal charge. >>> police in england have arrested three men who they say threatened staff aboard a plane bound for dubai. the men were arrested on suspicion of making a bomb threat and are in jail in london right now. the incident happened last night as the plane was getting ready to take off from heathrow airport. all of the passengers were taken off the plane while police searched it with bomb-sniffing dogs. they found nothing suspicious, though. heathrow airport remained open during the incident. >>> the christmas airline bombing attempt suspect has pleaded not guilty to all charges. umar farouk abdulmutallab appeared in court in detroit yesterday. it lasted about four minutes, the hearing. he is facing six federa

guest: that has certainly gone up. we know in arizona, are medicaid funding for the poor has gone of domestically, food stamps are up. those areas have definitely gone up. that primarily affects the state budget more than city budget but it definitely has bite. host: fort worth, texas. caller: i wanted to ask you about growth -- cities and states. 30 years ago when i was in college i listened to one of our politicians here -- no longer in politics -- but he was talking about the state of texas and our capacity to tax and talking about the business is coming to texas and the growth and he compared it to the northeast of being at 150% of their capacity to tax. you would understand that better than i did. he said there were 60%, 70% capacity to tax at the time. is there anyway in our country where we would get to the point where we maintain our cities and our housing of the way it is without having a gross all the time or are we always going to be in a cycle of growth where we are destroying and building and destroying an

it never has. when you talk to the young men who joined the cause, they are not looking for money for themselves, their families, or anything like that. it is, i had no meaning. can you get meaning and fulfillment from a good job? of course you can. having any meaningful job is more important than just having a job. when you look at the countries across the middle east, where the foreign fighters are drawn from, we see unemployment rate that vary from 2.2%, all the way up to 40%. those statistical correlation between unemployment and the number of foreign fighters that that country generates. statistically, the data doesn't support that. however, having for unemployment conditions in a country that to the argument. host: you mentioned those 2000 individual that you studied. is this part of your work with the u.s. institute of peace? guest: yes, this is work that i started in the centcom region. that was followed up by a collaborative effort by the u.s. army war college. one year of fellowship where

. >> cris: really when you have a quarterback that has played the way that tony romo has played for the last month, you trust him the way that some of the superstar quarterbacks in the league get trusted and for tony romo, i think you go back to the giants game. earlier this year where he threw three interceptions. he said, "i came out of that game and i knew i couldn't get my team beat like that again." and he has been a different guy since then. >> al: second down andour. a run on the draw and trying to get that first down is choice. just short of the 50 yard line and it looks like he is going to move the chains again. >> cris: tony romo is going to fake that quick screen one more time. he got trent cole to sort of stand in place and he was going to jump up and try to knock down the pass. those little details. jason garrett insists on finishing every play and big guys up front have just been overwhelming. you have to be a little happy for flozell adams, too. here's a guy who has been here for 12 seasons now and never won a playoff game. the longest stretch by any cowboys player. >> al

so, by all means, it has not been a 1918, it has not been a 1957, so far. but it's a disease that has made many people sick, many of them severely ill and has, sadly, killed more than 10,000 americans. >> suarez: nearly 1,000 of those who have died are children. so, has h1n1 lived up to the scary advance billing that came roaring out of mexico in the spring, or is it a variety of flu that was easy to catch but didn't really turn out to be virulent? >> this pandemic was much more selectively hitting younger populations and causing the kinds of illnesses we have not seen in my public health career. >> suarez: and osterholm says if you consider the premature deaths among young flu sufferers, not only is the impact magnified... >> it is very clear that this pandemic has been much, much more severe than any seasonal flu years we've had in modern history, and actually begins to have impact like that we saw with previous pandemics in 1957 and 1968. >> suarez: professor osterholm and dr. frieden are uncertain about a third wave of disease, and won't rule it out. th

president obama has problems. he has finally struck the right tone.artha: scott will stick around peter neumann. it is great to have you with us. it always good to see you. trace: 41 minutes past the hour. you think health-care reform is a done deal? take a closer look at the language on abortion. this is becoming a major obstacle for many lawmakers with very different opinions. up next, jim angle will tell us exactly how congress is dealing with a very sensitive issue. so many arthritis pain relievers -- i just want fewer pills and relief that lasts all day. take 2 extra strength tylenol every 4 to 6 hours?!? taking 8 pills a day... and if i take it for 10 days -- that's 80 pills. just 2 aleve can last all day. perfect. choose aleve and you can be taking four times... fewer pills than extra strength tylenol. just 2 aleve have the strength to relieve arthritis pain all day. from brink's home security... you can now expect from broadview security - for home and business. call now to get the proven technology of a broadview security system installed for

every state has different ways. if we are all going to connect the information together, which i agree that just connecting affirmation is fine, but the cost of correcting the information, getting it linked so it is standardized will be incredibly expensive. then putting security protections on top of that will be questionable as well. we know there is problem with the quality of data and then you let people going in to correct. duper tended to be these people. we know there have been problems in the past when people have said they want to correct their records and they pretend to be someone else. how do we deal with that situation? we may be able to do it, but i do not think it can be done in six months. >> mr. baker, would you give me a response to mr. schwartz's comments just now? >> he is correct that there will be problems with respect to errors in the database. for 90%-90% -- 90%-95% which means they will rely on fraud. we ought to solve the big problem first. the secondary problem could be addressed by simply

he has tim griffin former u.s. attorney running against him. >> there still is something hanging out there. because health care is really -- >> health care is on top. >> but it's really hanging in the balance. >> lehrer: so it is because of -- as the republican candidate keeps saying, i will be the 41s republican and that means no 60 votes for the democrats, no health-care reform. >> there is the psychological aftershocks of losing in massachusetts. and then so now washington, in washington the democrats are saying well, if he loses maybe we could pass it in the lame duck session before he actually takes a seat or hold it up, claim's recount. ask for a recount to. me that is crazy talk because if you have an earthquake you can't just then do some monkey business and pass a lame duck session a major piece of legislation. >> do you agree that is crazy. >> i agree. you have ten days to certify the results. i mean the results are the results. and ten days are not required to do it. and david is right. >> anybody tried
