in panetta's case, it is well deserved. that career that he has built, and the service he has provided for our country, is among the most unique and distinguished careers of modern public service. i really mean that. [applause] this is inappropriate -- this is an appropriate recognition. i want to share with you, and i promise leon and other members of congress that it is brief. you hear that all the time. i recognize i still have some bad habits that i picked up. this will be some comments i wanted to share with all of you that i spent some time on. not that anything i am about to say is profound. i'm incapable of that. nonetheless, i try. these are comments i do feel. i strongly believe. as i begin my comments, i want to share with you tonight, i want to acknowledge so many special people in the room. we will not be will to get to everyone tonight. one in particular who taught me about the adl, what it was doing, what it was important. that is bob wilson --who is here tonight. as most of you know, bob directed the adl off

and leon panetta has lived that message.at the department of defense, we work to preserve america's individual liberties as well as defend our national freedom. when the supreme court issued its decision on the defense of marriage act this summer, the department of defense immediately began working on providing the same benefits to all eligible spouses, regardless of sexual orientation. we did it because everyone who serves our country in uniform, everyone in this country, should receive all the benefits they deserve, and they've earned, and in accordance with the law. everyone's rights must be protected. this means that all spouses of service members are entitled to dod id cards, and the benefits that come with them. but several states today are refusing to issue these ids to same-sex spouses at national guard facilities. not only does this violate the states' obligations under federal law, but their actions have created hardship and inequality by forcing couples to travel long distances to federal military bases to obtain

the same should hold true for reaching out to the former bob gates and leon panetta. they hold you in very high esteem obviously. they know what you're up against. lean on them. there are guys will prove invaluable to you as you take on the role and the tasks that lie had. let me reiterate my strong support of mr. johnson's nomination and my appreciation for his willingness to serve the people of this country in this new role. i want to call my colleagues, democrat and republican, to join me in confirming him as soon as possible. mr. johnson, if you are fortunate enough to be confirmed, i will look forward to working with you in the coming months and years to protect the homeland and its people. today,se that are here your wife and two children, your sister or two, others in your family, that i suspect you will announce when you make your comments -- i want to say to your immediate family and your parents, thank you for raising this man. thank you for instilling the values that we need in this leadership role in our country. to his immediate family, his wife, his chil

the same should hold true for reaching out to former dod secretaries gates and panetta. they hold you in very high esteem. they also know what you're up against. lean on them. their collective advice will prove invaluable to you as you take on the task that lies ahead in closing, let me reiterate my strong support of mr. johnson's nomination and my appreciation for his willingness to serve the people of this country in this new role. i want to call on my colleagues both democrat and republican to join me in voting to confirm him as soon as possible. mr. johnson, if you are fortunate enough to be confirmed, i look forward to working with you in the coming months and years to better protect our homeland and its people. and i would you say to your family was gathered here today, your wife and her two children, sister or two, others in your family, but i suspect you'll probably acknowledge when you make your comment, just want to say especially to your immediate family, and to your parents, tell your parents especially thank you for raising this man, thank you for instilling

it is what secretary panetta said in -- when he left in october of 2012. it was what hillary clinton said last year at the secretary clinton last year at the awards dinner of the atlantic council. it is not sustainable for an alliance to see this kind of trend to continue. so what, as lennon said, is to be done? the answer you hear in europe is pooling and sharing. indeed, there is a lot that pooling and sharing can do. the c-17 consortium was a master of putting this together, is the kind of thing we would like to see. the dutch could only afford half the c-17. the swedes -- which isn't useful when you want to fly a plane, they bought the other half. together they have a plane. that's how pooling and sharing can work. we have an awax fleet that if funded can effectively provide airborne early warning and control, and we have a commitment to buy the air ground surveillance system, five major drones that will provide nato with the capacity to see what is happening on the ground. we are investing in europe on air refueling capabilities and that, too, is good

. >> and prince claims after the cia cut ties, then leon panetta outed prince and blackwater's secretd up to do was very serious work. we were asked to help and then to be outed by name to a very leaky congress, that's unprecedented. >> a representative for panetta tells abc news that the former cia director was required to brief congress on former covert programs and he had no control over what happened to the information after that. the cia declined to comment on its association with prince. >> you talk about president obama in the book and you say your connection to president obama is, quote, closer than he has ever wanted to admit. what do you mean? >> just that there is some of these key programs that he was depending on. >> that he knew you were involved with? >> probably so. >> have you met him? >> no. >> you write i am no hero. the world knows all too well about my mistakes but i was never meant to play the villain. do you feel burned by the people who hired you to work? >> to a certain extent yes. >> so there are regrets? >> oh yeah, seriously regrets. >> wouldn't do it again

i agree with leon panetta. they certainlily need to begin planning. >> charles, this is the kufl war trip, the prerl did well. obama draw a wile. i think as damaging as the website problems are, i think more his numbers are exaccepted it's great when they're wanting him to play on vaeng. he was cut in an irish perception. the fact that he kbunded it when you say we're really sorry about all of the people who lost their insurance. we didn't craft the law appropriately. that is precisely the opposite of what i've done. all you had to do to craft the law was say anybody who has insurance can keep it. there's no crafting it at all. having the maximize. 40% of your insurance they pay you if you run in now. if there was any changes in your insurance. that would throw you into the pool of people who would loss insurance. the crafting was done precisely that. this is one perception after another and it turns out that they can't get the run. that's another area. that's going to be another nouns. ten times fewer than the

plus, bob schieffer sits down with former defense secretary leon panetta ask him how he thinks the u.s. should proceed on iran, what he thinks of the troubled obamacare roll out. can the administration get the website fixed? pin metahas candid advice for the president if it can't. >> if they can't fix it then i think the president may very well have to accept some changes in order to make sure that we can continue to implement it. >> o'donnell: new jersey republican governor chris christie wins re-election, are his eyes on another prize see if he thinks he could fix a badly divided republican party. it's all ahead because this is "face the nation." captioning sponsored by cbs from cbs news in washington, "face the nation" with bob schieffer. substituting for bob schieffer cbs this morning co-host nora o'donnell. o'donnell. >> o'donnell: good morning again bob will be along later. seth dohn joins us from beijing the latest on the typhoon. >> good morning a. local official in the philippines suggested as many as 10,000 people might have parished in this typhoon that number is very differ

bill gates and leon panetta are among those. you've had the honor of working alongside literally thousands of brave men and women who put on the view from everyday and to go out and serve our country. could you share with us some of the lessons that you've learned about, those years, particularly working close with bob gates and leon panetta? some of the lessons you learned about leadership. some of the lessons you learned about managing a large organization and some of the lessons you learned may be about public service that will help better equipped to lead this department? >> leadership, management, help. >> secretary gates and secretary panetta had in my view two distinct styles of management which were both very effective in their own respects. dod is larger than dhs but it's very different in certain respects. i thought that they were both very disciplined, very focused, delegated when you do, focus on certain issues close to when you do. i expect to follow that model. being able to monitor the events of what's going on a

bob schieffer sat down with leon panetta for "face the nation." >> let me ask you first about this situation on iran? what as you understand it is in this agreement that they're talking about? >> well, i really don't know particulars but i think we've got to be very careful and very skeptical. iran is a country that has promoted terrorism. they've had a hidden enrichment facility that we had to find out about so we have to make sure that even with some kind of interim agreement that we know what the next steps are going to be in order to ensuring that they really stand by their word. >> pelley: bob will have more of his interview with leon panetta this sunday on "face the nation." today the cbs news magazine "60 minutes" said it no longer has confidence in one of the sources used in a report about the 2012 terrorist attack on the u.s. diplomatic mission in benghazi, libya. in one of the interviews for that story, correspondent lara logan spoke to dylan davies, a consultant who managed security outside the u.s. compound. davies said he went to the scene during the attack and identified the bo

secretary panetta as well.and yet, it does not seem to have the impact were helped turn the tide on some of these issues, given the reality of the wherecs in the countries members of the lines and economic situation, what is the path lowered here -- the path forward here? >> i think that is the message i am here to repeat. i do not think this is a time for agonizing reappraisals. a time inhere was not 1954 for agonizing reappraisals. this is not one either. the message is we need europe. our most important strategic partner. they are the countries that when the matter is at hand, will be on our side. a europe that is not capable to be there is not very useful to us. says, frankly,t if you cannot be on our side because you lack the capability, that is bad for us but certainly not good for you. that is the message i heard secretary panetta and clinton deliver over and over again. reality is, it means we will have to make choices. when it comes to when and how to intervene and what place and for what purposes, we

this includes secretary panetta's troubles to this region and has been a focus elsewhere. and we know it is increasing concern and also it is critical that we help build everything in an allied eyeliner capacity. that is one of our main capacity as well and helping each other through these kinds of crises. especially in areas like the philippines and i don't have that 40 today, but we will have this as time goes on. >> it took a couple of days for them to get this underway. was there a reason for that for a reason as we wait for a request by max. >> with respect of the premise, we started moving personnel and this has been tragically developing as a situation and it takes a little bit of time as this is required. but make no mistake that we have moved out in the wake of this terrible storm. >> okay, so general kennedy says that he need that capability as soon as possible? >> they could be required to support the philippine allies and the nearest one is in japan right now. i am not ruling this out that they could be moved there at a certain point but we have a significant a

on sunday former defense secretary leon panetta and former white house chief was asked if he thought shut down the entire system and start over when it comes to health care. >> frankly, they should have done it before it started. they should have gotten it right in place. there are too many players. so they really ought to try to make sure that they are going to be able to fix this system by the end of november. you know, i hope they can. but if they can't, they ought to be honest about what they're confronting. i think ultimately that if they can fix it, they can put this back on the right track. if they can't fix it, then i think the president may very well have to accept some changes in order to make sure that we can continue to implement it. >> all right. he was focused very much on the website fix. this week we are expecting some movement on this issue of how do you help people who have had their plans cancelled who want to keep them. is there any fix there? the administration thinks it has something. they want to do it before congress gets involved. but congress, there already

he does not have a leon panetta. he does not have an individual with the understanding of government, how it works, to help with what they call policy execution. he has people there who love him, honor him, and obey him. they do not understand how you make the machinery work. of whether the president could come out of this thing and do something on immigration, the problem turns on his credibility. next thing thehe president has to say about anything? immigration. he will have to make assertions, are those assertions going to hold up? the same way you are asking about affordable care act. what comes next with this president? that is his problem. that is the confidence question that will threaten his entire agenda. >> i think you're right. what happened with obamacare highlighted the underlying flaws of it ministration. websiteidence issue, a you would imagine you get a bunch of 12 year olds and they can make a website for a lot less than $600 million and the air against that you can keep your plan if we are experts i

the former secretary of defense, leon panetta who once served in president obama's cabinet, isn't is sure that's probable. and he's got some advice for his former boss. >> i think ultimately that if they can fix it, they can put this back on the right track. if they can't fix it, then i think the president may very well have to accept some changes. >> reporter: the white house was asked friday if there are any changes to obama care on the horizon, and a spokesman responded with this. "the president has said for years now that he is open to working with members of congress that have a genuine interest in trying to strengthen the affordable care act. that's been true for years now and it's true today." this morning we heard two different predictions for the true impact of obama care. at ballot boxes this time next year. >> democratic candidates will be able to run on obama care as an advantage leading into the 2014 election. >> this issue is going to be toxic for the democrats, and believe me, we will tattoo it to their foreheads in 2014. we will run on it and they will lose because of

skepticism about an agreement with iran and a lot of it was led by key democrats, including leon panetta. >> there are concerns that have to be addressed. what happens with the enriched fuel they've developed. what happens in the 10,000 centrifuges? what happens with the heavy water react torr? how is all inspected and verified? >> reporter: the powerful chairman on the center of services says no. >> i love the slogan trust and verify but i never understood it. i think the right slogan is don't trust. i don't trust the iranians [ applause ] and by the way, they don't trust us. >> reporter: the message here at the library was many democrats joining with prodefense republicans in being skeptical in the ability to verify any agreement with iran. >>> us senate allies are looking at a 2 step process to freeze the nuclear program in exchange for sanction relief. >>> pakistan's interior ministry announce that day the former president faces treason charges. it was imposing emergency rule in 2007. he will be investigated. mmmm..... sharrif is facing other criminal caseincluding one relate today t

to this, frank and i think starting question from an american service member, master sergeant leon panettao, watch. >> five, ten years from now, mr. secretary, are my kids going to be serving in afghanistan too? the answer from the defense secretary that day was basically, yes, he said the plan was to have an enduring presence in afghanistan, even after the war was technically over. well today, nbc's richard engel broke the news of what the plan is, for that enduring presence. richard has posted an early draft of an agreement between the american and afghan governments allowing for an ongoing presence of american troops in afghanistan, even after the end of 2014. thousands of u.s. troops and major u.s. facilities on the ground. richard writes t document outlines what appears to be the start of a new open ended u.s. military commitment in afghanistan. the war in afghanistan, he says, does not seem to be ending, rather it is being renewed under new scaled down terms. joining us now live from kabul is nbc news chief foreign correspondent richard engel. thanks for being here tonight. >> it's a

but leon panetta is not so sure that is possible and he has got advice for his former boss. >> i any ultimately if they can fix it they can put this back on the right track. if they can't fix it then i think the president may have to accept some changes. >> the white house was asked friday if there are any changes to obama care on the horizon and the spokesmen responded with this. the president has said for years now that he is open to working with members of congress that have a genuine interest. this morning we heard two different predictions for the trou impact of obama care at ballot boxes this time next year. >> democratic candidates will be able to run on obama care as an advantage. >> this issue is going to be toxic for the democrats and believe me we will tattoo it to their foreheads in 2014. we will run on it and they will lose because of it. >> right now not all visitors can apply for coverage as technical -- consumers can fill in the blanks online but need to -- to admit location. >> peter, thank you. for the very first time, the miami dolphins dc for suspected bullying is

bill clinton's former chief of staff leon panetta says the mistake was entrusting the health and human services bureaucracy. >> you cannot rely on the bureaucracies to do this kind of work. i mean, you know, they are good people, they are dedicated but very freeze warningly they are not the ones that really have the capability to, in fact, get this done. >> but he said he would bring the website out of the white house with daily meetings until it's working well. >>> well today's veterans day. folks tend to think of this day as being sometimes about store discounts and parades. but none of that is gets our veterans jobs. right now there are 22 million vets across the country and depending on their age their unemployment rates range from 10% to up to more than 20%. much higher than the national unemployment rate of roughly 7%. so what can to be done to help vets looking for work? the ceo of concerned veterans for america is my guest. first thank you for your service and our former guest scott brown as well who is still active duty, national guard, the two of you have served our country s

if you go back to february of 2012, leon panetta told the washington post they would attack april, may or june. you don't betray a friend like that. at the end of march when they were afraid they were going to attack they released that they would use azerbajan. then they wouldn't allow it. >> israel is alone. >> they are negotiating with france, saudi arabia. >> the saudis were shocked. does this start a nuclear arms race? >> being in the middle east back in september we heard from some people, allies who were saying, we keep watching you throw your allies under the bus. we wonder which one of us will be next. >> let me give you three instances. one is under president obama we gave the former head morsi who referred to them as descendents of apes and pigs. now they are saying they are doomed for destruction, the rabid dog of the region. we had president obama saying they ought to go back to 67 borders. if you are netanyahu what are you thinking? >> that we are not as good an ally as we should be. >> not at all. >> that's why his national security adviser mr. cohn is coming to the ice.

yet here's this article dated february 2, 2012, says, defense lotetary leon panetta has a on his minds these days, but cutting the defense budget to draw down the forces in afghanistan, but his biggest worry is the growing possibility that israel will attack iran over the next few months. panetta believes there's a strong likelihood that israel will strike iran in april, may or june, before iran enters what israelis described as a zone of immunity to commence building a nuclear bomb. very soon the israelis fear the iranians will have stored enough enriched uranium in deep underground facilities to make a weapon and only the united states could then stop the them militarily -- stop them militarily. that is a betrayal of our ally israel. that is a gross betrayal of our ally israel. we're supposed to be on the same side. and if israel defends themselves, it's defending us as well. whether we recognize it or not. that was a betrayal of israel. to leak what we believed, what this administration believed was their plans to defend itself. if we're not going to defend ourselves, for heaven's s

secretary panetta was there. the number is zero. mr. inhofe: would the senator yield for a unanimous consent request? i ask unanimous consent that after the senator from tennessee's remarks, that we hear from the senator from arkansas, senator pryor, and that i be recognized after senator pryor for such time as i may consume. the presiding officer: is there objection? mr. alexander: and if the senator from oklahoma needs to speak now, i would be glad to -- okay. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. alexander: my point was the charge is that republicans had been denying president obama his nominations by filibuster. not on the supreme court, not to his cabinet and no district judges, madam president. how many in the history of the country have ever been denied their seats by a failed cloture vote, including president obama? the answer is zero. maybe it was some other nomination that would cause such a problem that would justify this dangerous restructuring of the senate rules. let's go to the sub cabinet. these are all the execu

plus, bob schieffer sits down with former defense secretary leon panetta ask him how he thinks the u.s. should proceed on iran, what he thinks of the troubled obamacare roll out. can the administration get the website fixed?

the former defense secretary leon panetta said today he's not sure that's possible. he's got some advice for his former boss, president obama. >> they really ought to try to make sure they will fix this system by the end of november. i hope they can. if they can't, they ought to be honest about what they are confronting. if they can fix it, they can put this back on the right track. if they can't fix it, i think the president may very well have to accept some changes. >> in congress republicans have continued to try and minimize the impact of obama care. we learned this weekend what's next. >> next week the house will take up the keep your health care act, which will ensure plans available today in the individual market can continue to exist. no one should have to go to their inbox or mailbox in fear of finding out they are losing a plan they like, or worse, a plan they need. >> looking ahead to the next election cycle, the top political officials at the rnc and dnc have very different ideas about what obama care will end up meaning at ballot boxes. >> democratic can

leon panetta was secretary of defense he watched the film.hagel watched the film. all the senators have seen your film. i know of no other film, documentary, made by any one, no book that has ever entered the senate this way, entered the highest levels of our government, and had this kind of impact. >> yeah, you know we are very pleased that it had this impact. because when weep were talking to the men and women and seeing how patriotic they were and how much they, they would, were committed to defending the country and then seep their own military turn on them. we really wanted to change this. and, and they, and, you know to the military's credit they're using the film as part of their sexual assault training now. what they haven't done is fix aid broken prosecution system. that's why the senator's bill its so important. off awe amy, its the military working on any kind of screening process to anticipate this to try to figure out what is the pattern of behavior here that we have to stop. >> not that i know of. >> they are looking at that. th

also find our other high-profile interviews with people like john mcafee, aal list waters and leon panetta. >>> twitter's stock may have been too expensive after all. a day after the san francisco company's ipo, investors reassess the company's valuation and shares of twitter tumbled, 7%, to a little over $41. despite today's drop, it is still up 60% from yesterday's ipo price. >>> big security changes are coming to san francisco general hospital. the sheriffs department said a sergeant and two senior deputies will transfer out of the hospital. six new people will then transfer in to replace them. the changes are in response to the lynn spaulding case. she went mising at sf general and took three weeks for the hospital to find her body in a stairwell. federal investigators also spent the past week at the hospital intervi interviewing those involved in this case. >>> video of someone with their eyes closed usually doesn't generate much publicity. it's hitting a congressional race in the south bay. a camera caught san jose representative mike honda possibly dozing off during a september town

if you go back to february of 2012, this administration, leon panetta told "the washington post" they're going to attack april, may or june, you don't do that to your friends, you don't betray a friend like that. at the end of march, when they were afraid they were going to attack anyway, we have stabbed them in the back repeatedly this fall. >> so israel is alone? >> well, they're negotiating with france and saudi arabia. they sent a negotiator -- >> the saudis were shocked by this. it took them by surprise. does this start a nuclear arms sflas. >> i can tell you being in the middle east back in september, we heard from some people, allies, who were saying we keep watching you throw your allies under the bus and we're wondering which one of us will be next. >> let me give you three instances. one is, under president obama we gave the head of the muslim brotherhood, former head that became president, morsi, who referred to israelis as the decendents of apes and pigs. we gave him f-16s, tanks and billions of dollars. now we have the supreme leader calling israel the rabid dog of the regio

and i think it was secretary of defense panetta said, well, we don't know. there is not enough place. we've used this successfully since 1904. and i often have said, and i said yesterday, that we don't have many good deals in government. this is one that is. since 1904, our rent on that territory down there has been $4 a year. now, can the chair come up with any better deal than we've had down there? no, i don't think anyone can. and besides that, castro doesn't collect it about half the time. so anyway, this is a good one. now, when you argue that you -- you -- you can use it for interrogation, if you stop and think about osama bin laden, the information that we got that ended up to his demise was actually gotten from interrogation that took place no place else than gitmo. i would also is say that when you talk about the treatment of people there, the one thing that i am -- discover every time i go down there is that one of the chief problems that they have in gitmo is obesity because they're eating better than they've ever eaten at any other time in their

one that chuck hagel doesn't have the ability that leon panetta and bob gates had to sort of make the case so there's a concern that these republicans aren't taking chuck hagel as seriously. >> well, i think the republicans should take the secretary of defense seriously because the cuts to both defense and nondefense will be very severe. defense will actually take a $20 billion cut compared to this year because last year -- >> basically the entire new skweser is defense? >> well, it's because defense actually was somewhat cushioned from quest sequester last year. not that they're being treated worse this year, that they're being treated the same as nondefense and the result is $20 billion in additional cults to defense. so what we've said to our republican colleagues, let's prevent these deep cuts from happening both in defense and nondefense because the congressional budget office tells us it will cost us 800,000 jobs among other things. let's replace that with a combination of cults you mentioned and subsidies but also cuts to some of the special interests tax breaks. >> we have thi

he wanted panetta to testify. that happened. he hasn't blocked all of these nominations.f this is theater. and you see john mccain obviously engaging in that today. whether or not this goes down to the wire and these folks don't get confirmed, hard to see that happening. this same thing again happened with hagel, tom perez. he eventually got confirmed over at labor. so i think eventually, you know, folks will get -- will get a good hearing and an up or down vote on the senate floor. >> josh, isn't it utterly reasonable that an individual like senator lindsey graham should use his power to block the functioning of government in order to protect himself from challenges? >> you know, i think -- >> is that really what we've come to? >> well, i think what it is is that all of these things have existed in the past to a degree. but what you have seen over the last 15, maybe 20 years, and increasingly over the last six or seven years is all of the norms that keep things in check. yes, you can block nominees. but you use it for something very specific, usually. and then you work o

it's a surreal experience sitting with bob gates, hillary clinton and leon panetta. like do i really blopg here. that's arne duncan. but who is this? explain this. sometimes i feel like january either is touching me. just to see if i'm still warm. >> that would be attorney general eric holder. >> excuse me? >> who i feel -- harris does that to me. >> oh, my gosh. >> but anyway, when you have a situation like this where there is maybe a half step people who run the cup and they're all in the west wing and all that because of their closes ness because of their closes nes to obama, you don't have talented people who want to stay in those situations. i think we'll see a real flight of talent at all levels throughout the federal government earlier than we see it in the second term. >> because they're so clexclude? >> why stay. people are typically in government for the right reasons. they like to make a difference. and if you're not making a difference, you're being kind of systemically humiliated by the 35-year-old white house aide, the most talented people won't stay in
