i want you to hear something from congressman lee terry.ll we get details, no, understand how many people being enrolled? here is what he had to say. >> that should be a pretty reliable number. >> the system is not functioning. we are not getting that reliable data. gerri: the secretary says essentially we don't know because we are not getting reliable data. >> i find this the least believable and a long list of things pick up the phone. insurance companies in america know who they have signed up. they have completed a contract with someone. it has gone down to the buildup for premiums and they will know. ask the insurers. it add them up. gerri: i don't think they have good information either. >> and may not have the right information, but they will know how many people have made it through the process. they have to. >> our insurance commissioner has tried to log on to the website every day since october 1st, has not gone through as of this past week. senator from alaska told a number of us today that they made the calls. there are three pe

and republican congressman lee terry of nebraska says he's not giving up his salary during the government he says he has a nice house and a kid in college, so he needs that paycheck. as the u.s. supreme court agains its new term on this first monday in october, justice scolia gave an interview to new york magazine which included remarks about the old practice of flogging as a punishment. in it he said, quote, if a state enacted a law permitting flogging, it is immensely stupid, but it is not unconstitutional. a lot of stuff that's stupid is not unconstitutional. >>> on saturday night live, miley cyrus caused quite a stir during a parody of her hit we can't stop. here is miley as congresswoman bachmann. ♪ this is our house, this is our rules and we did stop, and we did stop, shut that down ♪ >> and the late legendary white house reporter helen thomas covered ten presidents in her time, but she went on one date with congressman john f. kennedy in the 1940s. on saturday, her niece told the story of young reporter thomas going on a single date with the massachusetts congressmen. asked how it

and nebraska's lee terry was even more clear. when asked if he'd keep his pay, he said dang straight. but what about giving back pay to furloughed government workers once the shutdown is over? one of the biggest culprits behind this mess, ted cruz, refused to answer that question. >> the people who are missing, who are awol are the democrats. >> should they retroactively be paid or not? >> the democrats are refusing to compromise. >> yes or no do you support retroactive back pay? >> i support the house to fund the government. and at the same time to prevent the enormous harm obama care is inflicting on millions of americans. >> is this a yes, no, or a maybe? >> i'm not answering your question. i know you want to ask that hypothetical and you're entitled to ask it. >> it's not a hypothetical to the people who aren't getting paid. but that non-answer wasn't as bad as the way fellow texan randy norginbauer treated a park ranger. >> how can you look at them and say i'll deny them access? >> it's difficult. >> park service should be a

in particular, districts like, for example, lee terry's in omaha, nebraska, he told a local newspapertraight he was going to take congressional pay during the shutdown because he's got a nice house and a kid in college. that's a recipe for political disaster. actually, a democratic omaha city councilman changed his mind after initially saying he wasn't going to run for congress. now he's in the race. he's the democrats' poster child for the impact of the shutdown on a district-by-district basis. >> dave, i know it's fun and exciting in democratic circles to say we're going to take the house in 2014 because the shutdown is screwing them up. i don't buy that at all. i've read you and charlie writing about this. even with the shutdown shift, it's still going to be extremely difficult for democrats to take this over. you talk about voter amnesia, you talk about obama care, the failing rollout, pushing back some of that thing. you've written about, or larry has written about some of this pain is going to be enacted in the senate and not in the house. let's dig into one of the races that co

one of the things that committee members have asked her to bring to this hearing when pressed by lee terry of nebraska, she said it's because of the system problems she doesn't trust the data. >> that data out there exists. >> sir, i would tell you right now, it is not reliable data, according to the insurance companies who are eager to have customers, they are not getting reliable data all the way through the system. >> sebelius says they are working on improving that data on the back end of the systems. those reports that go to the insurers. she also could not say when the website was going to be coming back today. guys, even as she was on the stand today, testifying, it has been down today for technical issues. back to you. >> all right. thank you very much. bertha coombs reporting for us. >>> now to scott cohen, open enrollment is approaching for many corporate plans, including our own here at comcast, nbc universal. how will obama care change things this year and downstream for people who are accustomed to their corporate plans? >> it's changing things, but things were already changin

emboldened, they're recruiting candidates, they've already recruited a candidate in nebraska against lee terry who wasn't running but now is involved. >> pelley>> woodruff: based just on what's going on? >> i think so, yes. the fact that the republicans are now more easily demonized and defined as the guys who are against anything and everything. republicans are worried about small-dollar fund-raising and big-dollar fund-raising. they're concerned with the small-dollar folks because those are the true bluegrass roots tea party conservatives who have nothing -- there's no benefit from the republican -- the republicans caved. they didn't get anything. the big donors who are more pragmatic are petrified at the thought the republicans are going to drive the party and the country off the economic cliff. not only that, judy, if you looked -- you also have to look at what the republicans gave up. they gave up arguments over the past few weeks about the roleout of obamacare and what a mess it was. and they're just in an inferior position now. >> there's also two republican parties, now. the party is r

. >> a leverage point and mike lee, rubio and cruz have been fighting that fight. >> terry, what aboutohn boehner make a mistake by not going into conference before? the question is here, is he going have ended up overplaying his hand in such a way that the republicans lose the battle over the budget and not able to fight a battle over the debt ceiling in two weeks? >> before that, the trap from the democrats i need to point out that harry reid refused to bring the senate in on sunday. that would have given us an extra day. but the thing that the democrats want to do in the spring was to give president obama a blank check to raise the debt ceiling automatically and without any debate in the congress. they just didn't want to do that. the president has increased the debt and put trillions of dollars on the next-generation of americans. and they just weren't willing to the that. i think that was a reasonable position. as for john boehner's position now, he is in a position of saying let's delay obamacare as part of this. it may not be the clean way to do it. but it is a legitimate way th
