i mean, any normal traditional president would have attendant deal that kimberly outlined. this president has no intention of being normal. he wants to dramatically change the country. the house republicans are the great barrier to doing that. and the danger is as house republicans get better at this they'll cause more and more problems for him. this is the moment, i think in his mind to try to soofl it. i would not be at all surprised to see us technically have a huge problem wednesday and thursday. >> schieffer: all right, we're going to take a break and come back. a lot more to talk about. i'm beth... and i'm michelle. and we own the paper cottage. it's a stationery and gifts store. anything we purchase for the paper cottage goes on our ink card. so you can manage your business expenses and access them online instantly with the game changing app from ink. we didn't get into business to spend time managing receipts, that's why we have ink. we like being in business because we like being creative, we like interacting with people. so you have time to focus on the things you

kimberly deadline 15 or so hours away, is this likely to be resolved any time soon? >> reporter: there are certainly hopes that it will be, and there is an effort in the u.s. senate to work out a deal, but that has to pass the house of representatives. and that's where the problem has been all along. there are many in the house administration who believe this is just fear mongering, and there isn't the dire concerns and bleak outlook that have been predicted. so there does seem to be a challenge, and i can tell you the fact that there are only 15 hours left, certainly does make it less likely that this can be worked out in time, given the legislative maneuvers that are possible. it's not impossible if this deal can be worked out, and is fast tracked, it could still make it to the president's desk in time to be signed into law. but that is contingent on the fact that they can get along. >> and if no deal is worked out, kimberly, how will that effects ordinary americans? >> well, already there is a tremendous amount of anxiety and uncertainty. and this is the equivalen

i like that. >> thank you, kimberly. >> what are you doing later? >> very little, busy. >> very little mentioned in "the 60 minutes," president obama, very little mentioned of hillary clinton. almost like they're saying this is a horrible thing that happened. >> it's like they've been sprayed with pam and nothing sticks to them and they just slide right off, like an invisible shield of protection. nothing is directly attributed to them. i'm glad "60 minutes" did this story. i didn't learn anything new because we've been saying this for months and months and months and months. maybe finally everyone else is going to catch up, get up to speed on this and maybe we'll get some answers. it's still, to me, one of the most embarrassing things to this country, country, the way these people were treated. >> you asked the question, agree. the only problem, it shouldn't be the media's job. it should be coming from congress. so what took so long? what's taking so long for john boehner to create a select committee to go and ask these questions instead of lara lo

nbc bay area's kimberly terry is in oakland with the layest developments. kimberly? >> reporter: raj, the union negotiators came outside an hour ago, made a statement and went right back into the building where they are holding those negotiations on a contract with b.a.r.t. shortly after that, a b.a.r.t. representative responded. antoinette brian, the president of the local transit union, says they have heard from the public and share in their concern about a disruption in service. therefore, they've decided not to issue a 72-hour notice to strike. she went on to say they want to leave every opportunity open to try and get this deal done and blamed b.a.r.t. management for the lack of forward movement. she says the unions have pushed, and the b.a.r.t. district has not moved. >> right now, our country is being held hostage by a small group in washington, d.c. and here in the bay area, the public is being held hostage as well as the union membership by a small group of b.a.r.t. leadership who have refused to show that leadership. right now, there's a failure by b.a.r.t.

that was a big problem for me. >> kimberly, what do you make of the latest -- i want to get your take on what you think america is thinking as they look back at washington as they get closer and closer to the deadline. >> you know what they're thinking? quit acting like spoiled brats. come up with something that's meaningful. if you're standing on principle, get something for your side that you think is in the best interest for the country. if we are going to have to fund this obama care, then how about you guys have to be subjected to the same thing. don't tell me what's good for us as americans. why don't you embrace it yourself and take it on. >> from where they started, what they wanted, they have now fallen back to what is arguably the easiest -- and if the democrats don't take it, i don't know why -- >> they're out of their mind. >> i tell you the idea that the republicans -- the republicans turn so negative. it's getting worse and worse and worse. if i were them, i'd cut my losses and get out. >> you're 100% right. bob, first of all, thank you for not being overly smug about th

let's go back to kimberly. there is not one thing the president promised and this is the point of the show tonight. the rhetoric versus the reality doesn't match. the american people were sold one thing and they are getting a different thing costing a lot more. they can't keep the plan they had. that's a big, big breach of trust with the people of this country in government. >> it's fraud. >> thank you. >> it was perpetrated against the american people. not only should there be an investigation, i don't want to hear pathetic excuses. i don't have faith. they were grocery irreponsible with finances, the money of the american people. it's shameful what happened here. they haven't helped anyone. he says is the most frustrated. that is what bothers me. oh, no one is more frustrated. he has a white house doctor. there are people that need health care but they're so busy rushing this because of the president's legacy, they were irresponsible with the finances and health care of the american people. >> we'll be back t

kimberly, appreciate it. canning da's largest contractor blatche >> this is a really interesting company. despite having 70,000 employees and contracts all around the world, billions of dollars in business, it isn't that well known in canada, primarily because it doesn't deal with consumers. to most agencies of government, and of course it works in the healthcare center. >> this is an incredibly successful company, it has done very well on the stock market. it is well regarded. it is considered to be one of canada's showcase technology companies. it is canada's largest technology company. >> but c.g.i.'s current problems aren't the first time it has faced challenges with healthcare. the canadian providence terminated a $46 million contract to build a diabetes data base. >> the corporation, couldn't connect its systems with the systems that exist in the public healthcare system here. which serve as population of 13 million people, and it is a big system. and the weather it was the fault of the company cbi, or

. >> kimberly, you've been in high-stakes negotiations before, obviously. >> yeah, with your husband in divorce court. >> i meant of a legal nature, bob. what would you advise for either the democrats or the republicans going into this meeting with president obama? >> i think they have to be careful to not get lost in their own rhetoric where they're really becoming entrenched and focused on just getting their own objective and think about really what the american people want and what they need and what's going to work. so you have to be willing to compromise. otherwise you look just as bad as the other side. so be willing to come to the table, make some concession that you feel are meaningful that you can live with because to have this sort of go on unending is only going to hurt ultimately all of us out here, the taxpayers. pull it together. govern because that's what we're paying you to do. >> your thoughts -- eric, you're nodding? >> i agree with everyone at the table, which is scary. >> that's so weird. >> can we just talk about the 800,000 nonessentials for a second? there's a
