independent senator bernie sanders of vermont joins us tonight.to have you with us, is the white house dreaming if they think the republicans are going to step to the plate and help president obama and the democrats create jobs just 13, 14 months before an election? are they in a dream world? what do you think, senator? >> i think they are. i think it's very clear that the function of the republican party today in congress is to represent the wealthiest people in this country and the largest corporations they could careless about the middle class or working families. i think the american people are beginning to catch on, the president cannot keep trying to compromise with people who do not want to compromise. what he needs to do is come out with a bold, b-o-l-d job creating program to put millions of people back to work, and challenge the republicans to support it. and if they don't, you go around the country and you educate the american people as to the role the republicans are playing. >> well, when you take a look at what the republicans have n

host: this week on "newsmakers" rep bernie sanders 20 is from vermont. and two reporters to help us with questions. first question -- >> before all the names for the super committee came out, it felt like there was a moment in washington where people felt like this committee might be able to achieve some sort of bargain, a bipartisan agreement on taxes and spending cuts. since the names have come out, mostly hard-liners from the republicans and raped -- and democrats, the mood has shifted back to maybe this is another round of deadlock. what do you think? guest: i look at a little bit differently. in the last three negotiations that we had going back to december in terms of tax extensions, in terms of when the republicans in april threatened to shut down the government and the recent debt ceiling issue, i think republicans kind of won all three of those negotiations hands down. i think most people consider that to be the case. my view is that right now what the democrats have to do is remain strong, protect social security, medicare, and medicaid and the

i'm joined by independent senator from vermont, bernie sanders.enator, you saw the devastation firsthand. how bad is it? >> it's very bad. i think everybody knows vermont is one of the most beautiful states in this country. it's a small state. what we have suffered is the worst natural disaster to my knowledge in the state of vermont. hundreds of roads have been damaged and closed. dozens and dozens of bridges have been destroyed. our state employs 1700 workers. airline is not operable. we don't know how many hundreds or thousands of homes have been damaged. clearly, this is something our state has never suffered through in the past. it's horrendous. >> you mentioned the roads, bridges and rails as well. what has the storm revealed in the infrastructure up and down the eastern sea board as well. >> the event we had a few days ago doesn't happen every day. it was the worst in our history. but, what we do know is that it is absolutely imperative, not just for vermont but new jersey and north carolina that as a nation we come together and we help tho

what does senator bernie sanders think about this kind of deal making. >>> also, blowing their top. the tea party is mad as hell and with the injustice in this country, you can understand why, but does burning yourself in the town square and taking everyone with you accomplish anything constructive? >>> plus -- whether you like it or not, the facts, the arithmetic, doesn't lie. what wall street's performance proves about the real prosperity problems facing our country.

joining us now, bernie sanders, independent senator from vermont. senator sanders, let me ask you if you are the deciding vote in the senate tomorrow, if it is all up to your one vote, will you vote for this bill? >> well, first of all, al, i'm not the deciding vote. it will win with a whole lot of votes. i'm going to vote no. i think this proposal is extraordinarily unfair. it's going to make devastating cuts on programs that working families, low-income people desperately need. at the same time, it's not going to ask the wealthiest people in this country or largest corporations to contribute one nickel to deficit reduction. it is not only grotesquely immoral, it's bad economic policy. it's going to cost hundreds of thousands of jobs. >> senate minority leader mitch mcconnell and speaker boehner will pick six republicans on this supercommittee. this is what mcconnell told fox news earlier today. >> the chances of any tax increase passing with this -- with the appointees that we'll put on there are pretty low. >> do you think this supercommittee wil

the worst of the storm is happening now where kerry sanders is and his crew. hopefully we'll get more updates from him. then we talked about inland flooding. look at this projection and bull's-eye across maryland, philadelphia, delaware, new york city where we could see six to eight impls on already saturated ground. that's why we're monitoring the river levels as well with hurricane warnings all the way up including long island into the cape right over massachusetts. here is an overview of the path. what you're going to find is the timing has not changed too much temperature model con sense sus is right on track as we head throughout tonight we're going to find it is moving out from the carolinas back into the water by early tomorrow morning near the delmarva peninsula. then sunday morning right up against the new jersey coastline and then impacting areas right over new york city still expected alex as a category one right over long island at this point. >> i know everyone is keeping a close eye on things on new york city, long island in particular. real quic

one of them is deion sanders who enjoyed his best season with the chargers. he would sign with the dallas cowboys the next year, and before his induction he offered no apologies for his flashy and brass request style. >> if you don't believe in yourself, nobody else with. the bigger the vision, the more naysayers, but i tried to get -- dreams do come true. >> among those joining sanders were marshal faulk and another 1994, 49er, richard dent. >>> the comeback of tiger woods has to wait another day. tiger needing a big day at the bridgestone in ohio. instead it was the same old struggling tiger, especially with the short game. to much oomph for the par on 18. 2 of on the day. names like rickie fowler are in the hunt. this approach rolls back for an eagle. fowler is just three back of the lead, and perhaps a bit of karma, adam scott, and tiger's fired caddie, steve williams, who have the lead. scott rolls in one of his six birdies on the day. he has the lead heading into tomorrow. more sports comes your way at 6:00. the cal bears football team begins camp. see

that time it's going to be too late all right so you mentioned russ feingold you mentioned bernie sanders there but do you think that they are real progressive's anymore i mean can you name anybody in this country that's an elected official anymore who doesn't serve corporate interests and those who essentially pay them over those who elect them. look that's why i always say this isn't personal i don't think that these politicians are bad people i'm sure they love their kids like they were you know they used to say about the soviet union sure the russians love their kid i was always positive that i was for that to be comically obvious but anyway it's not about that is that you've got the wrong system where politicians collect paychecks from special interests lobbyists and most importantly multinational corporations so obviously they work for the people who sign their paychecks so there are very very few people that are not affected by this virus bernie sanders and russ feingold are the two best examples i'm sure i could find you a couple more but not much more than than even the good guys

sign their paychecks so there are very very few people that are not affected by this virus bernie sanders and russ feingold are the two best examples i'm sure i could find you a couple more but not much more than that even the good guys realize the quote unquote reality of the system and wind up having to raise a lot of money from those same interests and then eventually over time get corrupted i'll see if americans actually realize that next time that the elections come around now that essentially they have been sold out to corporate interests that there's no real revenues in this bill at all it's only cuts cuts cuts and of course most economists would agree that this is only going to make the employment situation worse and the economy worse overall mccain thanks so much for joining us tonight. thank you. our we're taking a quick break but coming up there's a glimmer of hope when it comes said the absence of women's health he tells on that in just a moment i am going to take a look at the effects of this debt compromise on a personal scale because they can advocate for the ninety nine er

that's where kerry sanders is positioned. while ago it looked like there was some blue skies overhead as they believe they were in a very ill-defined eye of the storm. not so much now. we look at the back side of that eye. it seems to be coming ashore. well, hurricane irene may cause extensive damage along the east coast this weekend, and joining me from dallas, texas, is the property and casualty insurers association of america. good morning to you. how large might insurance losses be from this storm? snoo we know that the insured losses will be large because of the density of the population building along the eastern seaboard of the hurricane is going to track. put the perspective -- this has already been a very difficult natural catastrophe here in the u.s. the first half of the year there were more than 100 catastrophe events with insured losses at moerch $27 billion. we know there are going to be a lot of property damage claims that are going to be filed and are going to be paid, but what we want to make sure is that the

. >> sentence few members are being inducted into the football hall of fame, including dionne sandersart over the 49ers. he stayed here for a year before heading to dallas. before his induction he offered no apologies for his flashy and brashy style. >> if you don't believe in yourself, nobody else will. the bigger the dream, the bigger the vision, the more naysayers, but is a tried to do, get your legs up because dreams do come tree. >> among those joining sanders were shannon sharpe, marshal faulk, and richard dent, also a member of the 49 are super bowl championship teen in 17994. tiger woods troubles continue at the bridge stone. he slipped. his short game is troublesome. this is a very makeable putt would you but would go too far. he is 13 behind. rickie fowler, on 11. his approach rolls back and rolls in for an eagle. fowler is just three back of the lead. and this factoid is fighting. the leader is adam scott who is caddied by steve williams, who tiger fired last month. scott has six birdies and has the lead by one shot. tiger remains optimistic. >> it's been a very long time,

please stay inside. >> again, that was nbc's kerry sanders in atlantic beach, north carolina. as we mentioned, the storm is expected to hit new york city during high tide tomorrow morning. nick is tracking irene and joins us with what that could mean in terms of flooding. hello. >> absolutely. hitting right at high tide. they'll have a storm surge of four, six, perhaps as high as eight feet so you get the high tide, the big waves. could be some big flooding issues for new york city. here's the developing of the storm weakening a bit as it hit the outer banks of north carolina. just got the update at 11:00 p.m. still sustained winds at 80 miles an hour. what's amazing about this storm is just the sheer size of it. it is about 500 miles across. that would cover about two-thirds of the state of california if it were on the west coast. here's a zoomed in picture. the center of the system not quite as wrapped one rainfall. a little drier air. it is creeping along at 15 miles per hour to the north northeast. right now it is off the maryland and delaware county coast -- the state coa

nbc's kerry sanders is in orlando with the latest on this. kerry, we are hearing that casey's case has been transferred now to another judge, which was a motion filed just the other day, correct? >> yeah. we have all sorts of developments. first of all, i'm standing in front of the department of corrections in orlando where if casey anthony follows the current schedule that she's been ordered to do she will have to show up before 5:00. but at the same time remember this is an order that came from judge stan strickland. he was the judge who handled the case on the check fraud casey anthony pled guilty. and he said that he sentenced her to a year's probation. the confusion here is did she serve that year's probation as she was sitting in the orange county jail here in orlando awaiting the murder trial, or does that probation begin when she left the jail? so her attorneys argue, and there is some paperwork from the department of corrections, that suggests she served that probation as she sat in her jail cell. so the attorneys are arguing now, wi

that you absolutely do have sorry we're out of time just a quick ten second question here bernie sanders has sort of my radio show that he thinks of this is a good idea he's generally willing to support the idea of america station you have any other politicians on board or should our viewers be calling their their elected representatives as well. they should be calling their elected representatives as well and i say this with the exception of bernie sanders and currently dennis q senate bill those congress people who are going to pass the constitutional amendment to move to a man are not in congress now but they are already born and many of them are already serving as your state representatives i say this we reach out to those progressives who had the and the courage to fight back against corporate america and we support them and we elevate them and we move them into congress that's great david cobb thank you so much for being with us tonight. thank you tom think from what you're doing you're fifty we are fifteen months away from next year's elections and what happened last night was con

at least give us somebody to vote for who is actually a progressive i don't know if it's you know sanders i don't know if it's russ feingold but at this point i can't it's hard to imagine a democrat being worse than president obama on all the issues that you mention so by all means we should do it in them point number two is look we've actually only be helping him because racial wisdom is their primary sort of president but you've got to understand something he disguise heading off a cliff and ease the unemployment is this asterisk and when we do the spending cuts it's only going to get worse if you primary him and push him to the left you'd only be helping him in trying to win the actual general election because if you don't primary him and they do the second round of these cuts and they cut in title and and he goes into the summer with over nine percent unemployment he's going to hit poll numbers he's never seen before he's going to hit into the thirty's and he's going to panic but by that time it's going to be too late i see him rest finegold you mentioned bernie sanders there but do y
