But meanwhile there is something else that is happening that could take effect little more than 24 hours later that's a possible government shutdown.

As the governor's -- many many times it's a mockery of that and Washington's.

That has prompted Italy's interest and in changing things in Washington and made on both sides.

Of the -- ought to do we have someone here has been been looking at this is a says it's not all just a one party -- James Cliburn.

Democrat of South Carolina and he's been trying to.

Cobble together a deal to avoid just that but it's looking -- -- -- like an uphill battle update me -- to think Stan.

Well.

It is an uphill battle but.

Really -- out hope.

That we will.

What is shutdown but let me say before I.

They get into -- to -- Of your questions.

How pleased I am to see.

Things -- took close in Iraq and I wanna say.

It's all of you -- this.

That haven't been around.

At the end.

Good to.

In Vietnam.

I would hope that as our men and women.

Come back her from.

I rat and many of them will be coming from Afghanistan.

As well then all of us will extend.

-- to them.

Make sure that big yet.

Back into their homes back into.

Their jobs and Ichiro.

That this is it the best Christmas.

-- they have ever ahead.

-- it's kind of weird congress and all what's kind of where does a lot of these soldiers coming no.

Could be coming -- a government that's just shut down I know you say that is unlikely but what would make did.

Unlikely then we're we're you close to sealing the deal -- -- because you got a little more and it's -- -- -- 48 hours to do it and you like four hours of work.

That's exactly right and that's why.

I think -- -- important for us to get this thing done unemployment insurance.

That you're by the -- you there's something.

That needs to be extended.

Because many of the people.

Who -- bigotry -- know looking forward.

-- this unemployment insurance.

-- -- members.

Some of those people.

Who are there are coming back home confront tough talk.

-- -- no doubt about all the stuff that you're right that you had to get past to get done what makes you think that it will get done what compromises have been made -- -- your side of the Republican side.

To seal a deal.

I think that those are the reasons I think that people recognized to -- rather get into.

Compromises to get this done I don't know that I would like to negotiate.

All of that -- on the but just let it the decision -- you can feel better.

Wrap wrap wrap up I never video but the fact of the matter is I think we'll close to get something done.

It made it -- -- the that what I walk.

But I expected to I don't think the government will shut down I think -- everybody we'll go home.

For the holidays and I think that that maybe some work for us to do.

When we get back here in January.

All right but so the president that I think Air Force One.

The jet engines on and ready to go to Honolulu he can go ahead.

-- and I don't know about that I think he is prepared -- -- he's made it very clear that he is not yet -- and it won't be necessary.

I don't think is necessary at all -- not only get 101000 dollars of it to 101000 dollars a -- that -- -- -- hitting it's well.

Here's what Tim.

-- and congress I didn't get details.

Okay there's always good having you sir have a -- prisons have been on -- -- different -- you look thought this in you after the new year.
