we seem to have two republican parties at work one who is working to avoid the shut down and tea party republicans like michele bachmann is ecstatic that things are going on as planned? how can someone be ecstatic? >> i don't have any sympathy for the federal employees who are big cry babies. i agree i think a shut down is essential because it's the only way -- >> jack, we're talking about people who might not get paychecks. they can't feed their families. >> it's the only way to enforce discipline. >> every year somebody will come out and say we've got raise the debt ceiling. america has to meet it's obligations. we do that year after year with no spending cuts. only spending increases. it's only through this traumatic event that we can enforce budget discipline. >> brendan, jump in. does jack have a point here?

this was his big deal to roll out this healthcare plan and this small fraction here wants to do the opposite of whatever president obama does. >> it's not a small fraction. the republicans picked up 75 seats. this is not a small faction. it's a very group of people who control the house of representatives and it is the will of the american people. the american people in the 2010 midterm election sent people to congress to control spending. >> the problem so obama care was held up by the supreme court. it's the law of the land. it's not something they can stop. when the democrats opposed medicare part d. democrats tried to make it better. >> brendan, you worked for nancy pelosi you know they on many owe occasions have used oh occasions to use appropriation bills to get the things they want to change all kinds of laws. this is nothing unusual. >> we haven't shut down the government, jack. there's no reason for that. >> jack, it seems this is just about obama care and this is about so much more than obama care don't you think? >> yes. it is about obama care to be sure but it is also about doing the only thing that we can do conservatives in the house can do to enforce budget discipline. shawn, there's no way to limit the budget. obama simply because he has the upper hand because he's winning the p.r. air war obama will not i agree to spending cuts. >> and he's going to continue to win the p.r. air war because of ridiculous stunts shutting down the government. the republicans don't care and they shut down the government. >> obama is a master politician and he's losing on suns stance. >> the latest polls show that if the government is shut down the majority of americans are going blame republicans for this. they're not happens ty -- is there concern jack about the reper cushions come election time. we saw peter king come out and say he's going to vote against a bill that included a delay. >> it goes to what i said we're losing the p.r. and polls. i'd be the first to argue our party needs better public relations but back to substance for the moment if we continue down this path we're going to become france, italy. we're not that par behind italy in terms of debt to g.d.p. we're almost there. there's no fiscal discipline. >> brendan, you have the final word. >> that is not true. the democrats don't want the government to shut down. they understand working together. the republicans have no interest of working together. >> thank you, gentlemen. democratic strategists. thanks for joining us tonight. >> will, we'll send it back to you on capitol hill. >> something crossing the wires indicating more evidence of the shut down. at midnight tonight may actually happen. president obama just a short time ago signed legislation that would authorize paying military workers despite a shut down. we're talking about troops, some defense workers and some contractors but he just signed legislation that would continue to pay the military through any kind of shut down. let me bring you up to speed what has occurred in the last several hours. the g.o.p. house sent a bill to the senate. it said we would continue to fund the government. we want to delay obama care apps individual mandate for a year and the g.o.p. house said they want to cancel house subsidies for members of congress, their staff and white house and put them under obama care. what g.o.p. members are saying look we're no different than anyone else. if it's good enough for you it's good enough for us. the senate said no and rejected it. kicked it back to the house tonight. right now we're being told the house leadership is a signing negotiators to try to come up with a plan. so this is not over by a long shot. and you know what? government shut downs not exactly the norm but in the last three decades they have flared up in budget battles. budget and debt battles. in 1980 funding for the federal trade commission expired. shut down for a day. lawmakers made a quick fix cost $700,000. 1980 shut down cost $80 million. in 1985 and 1986 the government shutdown twice during the clinton administration over taxes, medicare and the budget. the first lasted for six days. the second dragged on for 21 days. again we are live here on capitol hill. right now the house meeting to try to come up with some sort of a plan. shawn, i'll join you again during the news edge at 11:00. i'm be joined by bob cusack. he's going to tell me what he's been learning since we interviewed him during the 10. >> keep it right here for continuing coverage of the shut down showdown. you can stay up-to-date online. we have a special page dedicated to this looming shut down on myfoxdc.com. >> well still ahead tonight a bombshell announcement from the vatican. the historic move in the works and the reason behind it coming up tonight. frig frightening moments caught on camera. wait till you hear a pack of motorcyclists attacks a driver. we'll show you how it plays out. >> [ male announcer ] at northrop grumman, we've always been on the forefront of innovation. when the world called for speed... ♪ ...when the world called for stealth... ♪ ...intelligence... endurance... affordability... adaptability... and when the world asked for the future. staying ahead in a constantly evolving world. that's the value of performance. northrop grumman.

most areas tonight will drop into the 50s but here in the is sdrikt about 61 degrees -- district about 61 degrees. we had a frontal system that ran out of gas and it left a few clouds. we're staying dry. that is the one part of the forecast we need to do something about and that it is terribly dry. september came in two and half inches below average. tomorrow not a wet day. we're getting winds out of the west and we do warmup. many areas will see that. 81 degrees tomorrow in the district. manassas could be 84. culpepper 85 degrees. that's not going to be typical but we'll get used to it and

the process and created more of them than all previous popes combined. >> john the 23rd was supposed to be a caretaker pope but during his five years from 1958 to 1963 instigated the second vatican council a gathering of church leaders which changed many of the church apps traditions. candidates usually have two miracles attributed to them -- but francis approved john the 23rd with one miracle.
