It may be the holiday season, but when it comes to lawmakers in washington, it seems no one is in a giving mood. Both sides are dug in and theres little sign of progress from the talks to avoid the fiscal cliff. With just 19 days to go, Republican Leaders telling members of congress not to make Holiday Travel plans. And a new poll this morning suggests that most americans want to see a deal, but on the president s terms. The wall street journal nbc news poll found more than threequarters of voters, including 61 of republicans would accept higher taxes on people making more than 250,000 a year. Major garrett is at the white house. Major, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, charlie and gayle. Ben bernanke, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, said anxiety over the fiscal cliff is already hurting the u. S. Economy, undermining Consumer Confidence and delaying jobcreating business investment. And he said theres nothing the fed can do to prevent a recession if theres not a deal here in washington. But this morning, like so many mornings before it, has not provoked either side to come closer to a deal. Days of strategic silence descended wednesday into partisan frustration over the seemingly end its stalemate. House Speaker John Boehner on president obama. His plan does not fulfill his promise to bring a balanced approach to solving this problem. Its mainly tax hikes. And his plan does not begin to solve our debt crisis. It actually increases spending. And heres white house spokesman jay carneys dismiss ive assessment of boehners proposal to permanently extend all income tax rates until theyre replaced next year under a redrawn tax code with fewer loopholes and deductions. Those magic beans are just beans and that fairy dust is just dust. It is not serious. And the president will not sign an extension of the bush tax cuts for the wealthiest. Reporter the top House Democrat accused republicans of delaying a tax cut for middle class americans while trying to preserve one for the wealthiest 2 of income earners. Its getting really stale. Its getting really old. And the closer we get to christmas, its really getting boring. Reporter the white house released this photo of president obama talking tuesday to boehner. It doesnt look heated, but the conversation was. Obama told boehner his bid on taxes was unacceptable and not to expect a counteroffer. The president and i had a deliberate call yesterday, and we spoke honestly and openly about the differences that we face. Reporter outside of washington, pressure for a deal intensified. Jamie dimon, head of americas largest bank bias sets, jpmorgan chase, and a big wall street player, said lawmakers have to see the bigger picture. They know all the cards right now. You can lay them out, you can debate them all day long. Everyone knows what they are. Now they have got to go decide. If they go decide now, you might have a booming economy in a couple months. Reporter one part of the fiscal cliff drama is acrosstheboard Government Spending cuts. Today every member of the house received a letter ordering them to impose 11 across the board cuts to their own budget. John boehner will meet with reporters in a couple of hours and president obama will do some interviews with stations across the country. Also in washington is republican senator jim demint of south carolina. Senator, good morning. Good morning, charlie. Senator, what do you think is going to happen . I wish i knew. Most of us here are not in the loop of what theyre discussing. But i do know this, that this government doesnt need more money, this country needs less government. To take more money out of the real economy and give it to politicians and bureaucrats, no matter who you take it from, is not going to help the middle class or anyone else. The president s proposal clearly is not a plan, its not a solution. It will fund the government for a few days. We all realize its a political trophy, its not a solution. But the president has been campaigning against these tax rates for a long time, and he will probably eventually get his tax increases one way or another. So if he will get them, why not get them now and compromise and avoid going off the fiscal cliff . Well, we should have done it before the election. We should not h wrap ould not h home until the problem was solved and people could see how we had actually handled it here so they would know how to vote in the election. But ive been a businessman most of my life and i know the damage from this uncertainty has already been done. You combine that with the implementation of obamacare and those taxes, i think youre already going to see some downturn in our economy because of whats been going on here. We cant fix it Christmas Eve and expect it all to bounce back in january. But, senator, youre talking about the damage thats been done. You released a statement saying this is not rocket science. With that in mind, why cant we come to terms . You know, the public is viewing the Republican Party very negatively. Are you concerned about that . Well, im not so much concerned about the parties. I think both parties have failed our country. And i know what the American Public has been told. The president campaigned on raising taxes and getting rid of the bush era tax cuts. And hes going to get his wish, i believe. Were going to be raising taxes not just on the top earners, everyone will pay more taxes next year in this country. I think thats what the president wants. But weve doubled the size of this government and doubled spending over the last ten years. This year tax revenues at current tax rates will probably be at historic highs. If you look at the facts, we dont need more revenue, we just need to stop the spending. The president is not going to stop spending senator hes proposed more spending. So its hard to work with someone who i think is intentionally trying to take us over this cliff. Senator, youve announced youre going to leave the senate and go to a think tank to make the case for conservatism in america. Why are you doing that . Well, i can see conservative ideas working all over the country. A number of states are implementing conservative ideas. Their economies are turning around, jobs are being created. But we have not done a good enough job of convincing americans that less government, less taxes, and a more vibrant economy is really going to work for every american. So i spent most of my life in advertising and marketing and research, and i want to go back to the battle of ideas. I just think unless we win the hearts and minds of the american people, were not going to win elections with conservative ideas. So weve got a lot of work to do and the Heritage Foundation is the most prominent, preeminent conservative think tank in this country so its a great opportunity to change the debate. Senator, thank you very much. Thank you. The Federal Reserve did something yesterday that it has never done before. It is linking Interest Rates to unemployment. In other words, Interest Rates will not go up unless the jobless rate goes down. Rebecca jarvis is here. Rebecca . Reporter good morning. Go ahead. Reporter well, i was going to say, charlie, ultimately what theyre trying to do with this is to discourage people from saving and to get them borrowing and borrowing cheaply. The Federal Reserve wants to stimulate the unemployment. They want to get more jobs created in this country. There arent that many ways to do it and they have tried multiple ways. This is a new thing, a change in their policy, and theyre trying with everything that they have at their disposal to get Companies Hiring in this country. So what do you think it means for consumers . What do you think it means for businesses . Consumers are going to get cheaper loans. Same for businesses. Ultimately if those cheaper loans go towards buying things that create jobs, then businesses will start hiring. But if youre a saver in this country, you will continue to get paid nothing to keep your money in the bank. Thats my design. They want you spending that money. Why is it they are doing this now . They are doing this now because unemployment has been stubbornly high for some time. And we talked about this before, charlie. They have changed by design their platform. They have a dual mandate to look at unemployment as well as inflation in this country. They have taken all of their focus and put it on the unemployment picture in this country because of how stubbornly how its remained. Theyre saying were willing to let prices rise a little more than were generally comfortable with to get more people in this country jobs. Rebecca jarvis, thanks. Software developer john mcafee has returned to the united states. The multimillionaire, as you know, was on the run for weeks in central america, wanted for questioning in the murder of a fellow american. Bob orr is in washington with the latest on the story. Reporter good morning, gayle and charlie. Software security guru john mcafee is in miami this morning. At the moment, hes still not charged with any crime but his legal troubles and odyssey may not be over. It was a very tricky negotiation getting out of guatemala. Immediately after arriving in miami, john mcafee was caught on camera outside his south beach hotel, where he addressed the k accusations against him. Let me be clear. I have absolutely nothing to do, absolutely nothing, with the murder in belize. Reporter shortly before a new message and on his website. I have no phone, no money, no contact information, he wrote. It continued. Ten agents whisked me to a safe place, asked me some questions and then said where would you like to go . That post came down almost immediately and was replaced with a request to, quote, respect his privacy. Hours earlier before leaving guatemala, mcafee stopped to talk with reporters. Going to miami. Going home. Reporter as Police Escorted him to the airport, where he was deported to the united states. I think my next step is to rest. I have been ive been running through jungles and rivers and oceans, and i think i need to rest for a while. Reporter mcafee spent the last week being held in guatemala, where authorities caught up with him after three weeks on the run. John, where are you going . To jail. Reporter mcafee, who had been traveling with reporters from vice. Com is wanted for questioning by police in belize, who are investigating the murder of mcafees neighbor, and fellow american, gregory faull. Faull was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head one month ago. He and mcafee had been feud, faull complaining about mcafees dogs and complaining that mcafees guards trespassed on his property. But mcafee, who made millions developing Antivirus Software products, has repeatedly denied any involvement in faulls killing. He claims he only ran from belize because he feared hed be killed if he turned himself in. At that point i decided i had to do something. Went undercover. I am now here and im going to speak out and im going to speak out bigtime. Reporter now, if mcafee is ever charged with the killing, he could ultimately be sent back to belize. But sources say its also possible that the fbi might be interested in pursuing its own case here since the murder victim in belize was an american citizen. Rock musics alist gathered here in new york for a once in a lifetime concert to benefit victims of hurricane sandy. Last nights 121212 concert ran so long it became the 121312 concert. Jeff glor is here with the highlights. Jeff, good morning. Reporter charlie, good morning touchlt it seemed like everything about the night was big. The length of the concert, nearly six hours. The list of performers, 17. Promoters are hoping the biggest number of all is the amount of money raised. This has got to be the largest collection of old english musicians ever in mad 17 square garden. Reporter mick jagger was right, but it wasnt just englishmen performing at last nights concert for sandy relief. The stage was full of artists and presenters who grew up in sandys path. My city, new york city. Put your cell phones in the air we can celebrate love im here to talk to you about seaside heights. Long island. I was born in brooklyn. Staten island. The good part, not the wootang part. Were just too mean to lay down and die. Reporter an epic lineup for an historic show. Only the good die young reporter available to two billion viewers. The 121212 concert was the most widely distributed live music event ever, bringing in 32 million before the show even started. The prayer for all our struggling brothers and sisters in new york and all along new jersey. Reporter it began, appropriately, with the boss. Springsteen was joined by fellow new jersey native jon bon jovi. We were born to run i cant believe that Bruce Springsteen is my opening act. Reporter and after Billy Crystal kicked off the first of many pleas for sandy relief, pearl jam front man eddie vedder joined roger waters. There is no pain eddie was absolutely amazing. In fact i think i actually started singing to kiss him, which was weird. Reporter as the night continued, so did the surprise collaborations. I finally understood that i was in the middle of a nirvana reunion. Thats me in the corner thats me in the spotlight reporter most of it was serious, although there were moments of humor. This may be the greatest hannukah show ever. I know you really wanted one direction, but its way past their bedtime. So thats why you get reporter the who changed the lyrics of teenage wasteland to sandy wasteland. And adam sandler sang his own unique version of this benefit concert standard. Hallelujah, hallelujah, sandy, screw ya, screw ya well get through ya, because were new yorkers reporter from start to finish, the 121212 concert lasted five hours and 50 minutes, a night and a lineup that might only be possible in one place. What an evening. Good songs. You were there. I was there, yes. Your best moment . Well, there was such with 17 performers, its almost impossible to name. I think the big thing to keep in mind is while the people up on stage have the resources to build, a lot of the people watching at home dont. And so i think thats maybe the number one takeaway when we think about this concert last night or moving forward. Charlie, it started with Bruce Springsteen joined by jon bon jovi and just went up from there. But to me some of the most touching moments were the tru tributes to the First Responders and the people who suffered in hurricane sandy. Stephen colbert said it best. Its like brotherhood and humanity. And the kanye leather outfit. Kanye west was the producers favorite moment of the show. Go figure.
