Captioning funded by cbs welcome to cbs this morning. Democrats are calling president obamas plan to avoid the fiscal cliff an opening bid. Some republicans have different words for it, joke. Major garret is at the white house and reports on the president s plan and the strong reaction it got from republicans on capitol hill. Major, good morning. Reporter good morning, charlie and norah t. The white house brought real numbers and republicans called them an insult, concocted in never neverland. So much for a week of work here in washington to avert whats called the fiscal cliff. Treasury secretary tim geithner gave House Republicans new ideas on resolving the fiscal cliff. And left with their anger ringing throughout the capitol. No substantive progress has been made in the talks between the white house and the house over the last two weeks. Ive got to tell you, im disappointed. Reporter here are the big white house numbers. For 4 trillion deficit reduction in ten years, 1. 6 trillion comes from households earning more than 250,000 a year. 400 billion in entitlement cuts in program like medicare and medicaid and 50 billion in new spending next year for inf infrastructu infrastructure. Theres another idea. A permanent cease fire on raising the debt ceiling now 16 trillion that would allow it to rise automatically. Republicans use the debt ceiling last year to extract spending cuts and they dont want to give up that leverage. Theres a lot of things ive wanted in my life but almost all of them had a price tag attached to them. And if were going to talk about the debt limit in this, theres going to be some price tag associated with it. Reporter the white house still seat tchlsiethes over las fight and doesnt want a replay. To ensure that the United States of america pays its bills and does not default for the first time in its history is deeply irresponsible. Reporter the more both sides talk, the more complications they discover. The white house says nothing will move forward until republicans agree to raise taxes on the wealthy and cope them where they are for the middle class. In a couple of hours, the president will be in suburban philadelphia to talk about just that. Major garrett, thanks. Bob schieffer, host of face the nation joins us now. Good morning. Good morning, charlie. Youre in washington. Help us make some sense out of this and tell us when theyll be able to reach a deal. These things are like little plays, you know. You have act one and then you have act two. Act one, we had both sides saying this is really serious and weve got to do something. Now we see act two where the two sides are sort of laying out their positions. But so far, nothing has really happened. And nothing is going to happen, charlie, until they Start Talking to each other. So far, theyre talking past each other. The president is talking to people. Theyre trying to build up pressure on the other side. Republicans are talking to the public. Once they get to talking to each other, we may find some progress. But were not to that act. This play is still in progress. I think in the end theyll finally find something where they can get a start on this. But so far it hasnt happened. It just makes me wonder sometimes, charlie, has both sides forgotten how to negotiate . I mean, you know, they used to say Lyndon Johnson had the name and the phone number of every member of congress scotch taped to his desk. And beside each name was what that person might need. We havent heard of any of that kind of thing going on now. People are putting out tweets and all that sort of thing. I think if the oldfashioned close the doors, ask each other what you need and then start to work from there. So far we havent seen that. Bob, it seems like were having a replay of the last showdown where there are negotiations back and forth, but at the heart of this is a lack of trust from both sides. Because earlier this week, we had the speaker, john boehner, saying that he was optimistic. Now hes saying no substantial progress has been made. It seems like the two sides dont trust each other. And the republicans were angry that there werent some real cuts on the line. Well, you know, i think youre right. But, i mean, i think this time is a replay of the last time. And i think the last time was a row play of the time before that. I mean, these things just go on and on and on. They are not really negotiating yet. This deal will be done when its done. And until then not much has happened. This is all show. This is all talking. Theyre not down to the heart of it yet. What about those people who say let the fiscal cliff happen . Go over the cliff and see what happens and what political advantage we can gain from that . I cant imagine i cant imagine when it finally gets down to it that rational people would let that happen. I mean, to throw the country into a recession, which you almost would certainly have. To have these draco nian cuts. You would have cuts in the defense department, charlie, for example. They cant cut programs so they have to cut maintenance. They have to cut you know, you cant buy gas for the airplanes. That sort of thing. Surely, surely we have not sent people to washington who would be willing to let that sort of thing happen. I cant imagine that it will happen in the end. Bob schieffer, thank you very much. As we mentioned, bob will interview treasury secretary geithner, congressman mike rogers and Dianne Feinstein sund sunday. To identify one of the winners who will split a record 588 million jackpot. The other Winning Ticket sold in arizona might be in the hands of a man in maryland. Dean reynolds is in chicago. De dean, good morning. Good morning, norah. As you say the official winners have not yet been announced. One lucky Ticket Holder may have been captured on tape at the very moment that he realized he had hit the jackpot. Surveillance video captured the man as he casually walked into a maryland gas station thursday. He digs into his pocket and pulls out what seems to be a wad of lottery tickets before checking to see if hes a winner. Seconds later he pumps his fists, claiming had his ticket, which he bought in arizona, is indeed a winner. He shows it off to a store clerk who said it matched all six numbers. He couldnt believe it. He was ecstatic, wanted everybody to look, to check to see if he wasnt seeing things. He wasnt seeing things. Then he turns to other customers who take a closer look. I heard him say he won. And he gave me the ticket. Did i really win . And there was the arizona ticket with the winning numbers on it. Just as quickly as he entered, he was gone. Lottery officials havent yet named a winner in arizona all we know is that the lucky ticket was purchased at the four sons food store in fountain hill. Of course, were very thrilled that a player of the arizona lottery is one of only two winners in the United States. Reporter arizonas winner will have to share the record 588 million jackpot with someone who purchased their ticket a thousand miles away at an unassuming truck stop in the town of dearborn, missouri. Yes, we sold the winner. Employees were buzzing about the news thursday. This machine would have been the one that did it. Reporter according to cbs affiliate kc tv, mark hill may be the local resident but officials havent confirmed that. Hills son claims his dad has the Winning Ticket. Im very happy for him. He has worked very hard in his life and he wont have to anymore. Just being close to something so valuable is quite a thrill. Its just awesome that one of us could have touched that ticket, you know. Thats what makes it so awesome. Reporter now arizonas winner has until may 27th to claim his fortune. And lottery Officials Say that whoever it is should sign the ticket, keep it safe, contact them and probably a very good financial adviser. Charlie and norah . Dean reynolds, thank you. U. N. General assembly voted 1389 yesterday to recognize palestine as an independent state. Didt does not make them a full u. N. Member but does provide them with recognition. It is a setback for israel and the United States. Margaret brennan joins us to tell us why the u. S. Voted no. Reporter good morning to you, charlie, and to norah. Israeli government says it gives palestinians a state without ending the conflict. U. N. Recognition makes the west bank and gaza strip part of the palestinian state not defeated territory. Without negotiating the borders of one with israel. Here is the problem. Negotiation negotiations are in a standstill. As we saw last week violent extremists like hamas are gaining influence. Palestinian authority, which rejects violence, recognizes israel, is losing influence and patience. Last week secretary clinton c s successfully negotiated the cease fire but wasnt able to persuade palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas to drop this bid. Margaret, are there consequences for the United States and iz role for this vote . Reporter potentially. The concern is that congress could cut off funds to the palestinian authority. The u. S. Gave about 495 million in aid last year, which helped keep that peaceful government in power. The state Department Says that money needs to continue. Benjamin netanyahu faces reelection in january says this vote is meaningless. Threatening to withhold tax funds. He says he is willing to begin peace negotiations. Egypts parliament, dominated by conservative muslims approved a new constitution early this morning. The assemblys more moderate members are crying foul. It is sparking another day of protests against president Mohamed Morsi. Morsis supporters plan to stage a massive demonstration tomorrow. Holly williams is in cairo and has been watching this whole crisis unfold. Reporter a week after president Mohamed Morsi gave himself broad new powers that some egyptians say make him a dictator in all but name his islamist allies have rushed to finish a final draft of the countrys constitution. It could now be put to a referendum before the end of the year. Protests and violent clashes in cities across egypt, president morsi defended his power grab last night on Egyptian State tv. He said his new authority is needed to guide egypt through its democratic transition and that he will give up his expanded powers once the country has a new constitution. A final draft of the constitution is now complete, written and voted on by a panel dominated by president s morsis political allies, neither all of them islamists. The constitution gives islamic sharia law a more specific role in government and doesnt guarantee womens equality. It also empowers the state to defend morals and values. Critics like human rights lawyer say that could be used to curtail freedom of expression. Egyptian society originally there were six or eight women and maybe half of them, out of 100, have resigned. President morsis opponents are planning another big demonstration today on Tahrir Square in central cairo. Mr. Morsi is make iing a politi gamble that most people here will vote for a constitution that represents his own more conservative views but in doing so he has infuriated many other egyptians.
