harris. >> jonathan hunt, thank you very much.ome, obama care requires that all patient records become digitized by 2015. and while doctors say they believe that move will improve patient care, privacy experts warn personal electronic records are much more susceptible to hacking and could raise the concept of identity theft though a whole new level. jonathan sire with the news for us live in atlanta tonight. jonathan, what exactly is the concern? >> well, the concern, harris, is that it will create huge interconnected databases of patient information. in the old days, you were identity thief, you would have to physically obtain a paper chart from a medical practice. now a physician's computer that accidently downloads malicious software or somehow compromised becomes a portal for hackers in remote locations: another country, china, rush sharks anywhere around the world be able to hack into a system, obtain those records, and now, all that information is compromised forever. and you don't have a way of getting it back. >> unlike a

and it is irresponsible of president obama and harry reid to suggest otherwise. >> jonathan martin, i'mretty good at following people when they talk. i mean, i can't follow that. he's saying under no circumstances he implies i support a default. then he says the other side is using scare tactics. yet he's holding them to the threat he will default. is there any sense to that? you got to define this stuff objectively. where's the objective statement there you can track? >> well, he's trying to place the blame on what's happening and what may happen in the future on the democrats. he's fighting from a defensive posture because he's trying to push back on this notion that he and he alone is responsible for the fact that the government is shut down. so he and a lot of his colleagues are trying to spin this so put the shoe on senator reid and president obama. where this really gets interesting, though, is more the debt ceiling. it's one thing for ted cruz to have the shutdown on their hands. nobody wants a debt ceiling collapse on their hands. >> do you think -- can you report now or inlize

jonathan. >> i do want to play this because we have new sound from senator harry reid from the senate floor this morning, and i want to play that tape and get your read on the back side. take a look. >> it's time for my republican friends to defy your tea party overlords. every day that passes the idea of shutting down the government in order to repeal obama care is becoming so transparent and so bad for the country. >> harry reid there, jo know than, calling out the tea party overlords, is john boehner just painted himself into a corner, allowing for this bad behavior to rule the day especially now with the president specifically calling him out in that speech to call for a yes or no vote? >> right. ever since speaker boehner's plan b fizzled last year at the hands of the so-called tea party overlords. he's been weakened. it's not just that he's painted himself into a corner, he's willingly walked into this corner because he won't do anything to defy the tea party, the far right wing of his party, those few people within the republican majority who with are calling the shots. speaker boehner is

a story from politico from jonathan allen saying when president barack obama laid out a strategy a private meeting with harry reid that's past summer, reid stipulated one condition, one joe biden. the senate majority leader barred him from the back rooms according to sources. the vice president distance has grown even more noticeable. the debt limit crisis looms. biden once the deal maker in chief, designing budget packs with senate minority leader mitch mcconnell. again, how the government shutdown has impacted you, st. george utah. hello. caller: it hasn't directly affected me yet. i'm immensely worried about it. since earlier somebody was talking to whoever and the guy said, why don't you not get paid. how about all the really rich people in the united states just kick in like may be $10,000 or $25,000 to whatever we need the money for? just to make a dent. a sign of good faith. after all, their americans and we're americans. it wouldn't hurt them. really. okay, thank you. host: the associated press, this is from seth. saying the federal gown is -- shutdown is reaching down to the south pole. its putting

my name is jonathan betz, >>> south korea is introducing new rules for citizens looking to marry foreigners in an attempt to tackle problems associated with multicultural marriages. >> harrys et gives us this report if seoul. >> nita came from south korea from the philippines with a korean husband she met twice. there's is one of 200,000 multicultural marriages. these memories run into trouble over language, money, gaps in age and culture. >> it's hard, difficult because of the tradition. korean tradition and philippines is different. korean - man is heaven and woman is land. nita says her marriage flourished. she's an interpreter at a center in seoul. >> much of the adjustment courses made to meet expectations of husbands and in-laws. the deposit is bringing in rules, the foreign spouse will have to speak a minimum level of korean, and the korean spouse a minimum level of income before visa. >> that won't address the issue of marriage brokers who don't care about the future of couples they set up. >> translation: the government things strict regulations will prevent brokers arranging marriages. as well as officially registered brokers, individuals do it. they'll conditio

line here, jonathan, is anybody going to pay a price for this shutdown besides the government workers who aren't getting their paychecks? >> yeah, i think eventually the republicans, as harry republicans, because what they're doing is essentially turning us into a banana republic by putting a gun to the head of the country, i think they'll pay a price ultimately. obviously it's not good for the president and the democrats either in the short term. but what this is solidifying is that a group of republicans, banana republicans, tea party republicans, whatever you want to call them, are far outside the mainstream and not willing to recognize the results of a presidential election, a supreme court decision. and i think that eventually we're going to look back at this as a reckoning, as an important moment something but for this particular point in time, i guess the question is will they pay any immediate price? jim had a little different perspective this morning on "morning joe." let me play that. >> none of these republicans are going to feel it in their district. their district loves this stuff. they love that their members are taking on the president. they love the idea th

it's very clear, though, that harry reid has said i'm taking the lead, i'm the guy this time around. >> a little awkward, indeed. jonathaneporting. thanks very much. gloria will stick around. we just heard john boehner, the speaker of the house, will be making a statement reacting to the president within the next half hour. we will of course have live coverage right here on cnn. things i prefer to do on my own. but when it comes to investing, i just think it's better to work with someone. someone you feel you can really partner with. unfortunately, i've found that some brokerage firms don't always encourage that kind of relationship. that's why i stopped working at the old brokerage, and started working for charles schwab. avo: what kind of financial consultant are you looking for? talk to us today. if you have a business idea, we have a personalized legal solution that's right for you. with easy step-by-step guidance, we're here to help you turn your dream into a reality. start your business today with legalzoom. even when we cross our t's and dot our i's, we still run into problems. that's why liberty mutual insurance

harry reid to not fund it, which he is not doing. it puts a little pressure on the democrats. they are going to continue with that strategy for the time being. host: jonathan strong -- and by the way, we will continue to take your calls on the numbers will be up there in just a minute -- so you can continue to die libido live from national so yous d.c. offices -- tinue to dial in.ie only article, mr. strong, you talk about the fact that this goes back to a couple of days ago, about house and senate employees getting subsidies or g etting employer contributions. thesay that when it came to health care issue, that john boehner was not necessarily at fault, that he was actually fighting back. am i getting that correct? guest: you know, there was a long period of confusion and uncertainty about how obamacare would apply to lawmakers and congressional staff. and there was tremendous amount of work behind the scenes. then the obama administration issued a regulation saying the government would continue to pay essentially about $12,000 for a family for their health care for them to purchase on the exchange markets. and this has become controversial. people have c
