lou: obama administration in full damage control mode. trying to avoid further political damage as a result of the disastrous launch of obamacare, president apologizing to morning who lost health care plans but no apologies for lying about it. cascade of dreadful news for the administration maintaining momentum as new documents reveal that healthcare.gov was only able to handle 1100 users at a time according to test results a day before the launch, the shift in tactics and president's apology may now allow the president to abandon his search for a narrative that would explain the massive failures of his leadership. fox news chief white house correspondent, ed henry with our report. >> reporter: white house officials signaling they will not comply with republican subpoena due tonight. saying the release the numbers next week. president obama wants to set expectations low, really low. >> enrollment foro will be lower than expected because of the problems with the web site. >> reporter: democratic sources tell fox 15 senators facing voters i

the beginning of the obama administration. for example, in the agreement between the u.k. and individual american states -- we had them with california, florida, virginia -- it was a way of herecting the political weat -- no pun intended -- without having to get at the most tricky issue, which was the absence of federal legislation. with the obama administration, they started in a different place, but still were not able to get competence of climate legislation through. many of those activities at lower levels were important to us diplomatically. you were just talking with about theitnesses transatlantic trade and investment promotion agreement. this was particularly promoted by the u.s. chamber of commerce and by business groups in the united states. initially, the u.s. administration was a bit hesitant and cautious about it. u.k., i don't claim the was the only effective advocate, but i think we were one of those who very early on sunday advantages of this. we were pushing not just our partners in the eu, the commission, but

obama administration announces new contracts with cgi, not kidding. plus senator rob portman is here to talk about it next. without the thinking that makes it real? what's a vision without the expertise to execute it... and the financing toake it grow? whatever your goal, it can change more than your business. it can change the future. that's why, at barclays, our ambition is to always realize yours. >>> northwestern university taking heat lots of it. especially uniforms its football team plans to wear next week. the team is trading in purple uniform for red, white, and blue. here is the issue. the special uniform also features what looks like blood splattered american flags so. why would northwestern wear what appears to be blood splattered american flags in a game against michigan. the university says it's a show of support for the wounded warrior project proceeds from a post game auction of the jerseys goes to wounded warriors. critics don't like it calling the bloody flag look crass and a bit too much. tonight northwestern is apologizing for any m

but i think in this case the obama administration certainly going for it. john kerry made this a priority. the obama administration has been sort of trying to open this channel with iran even farther back than we knew. i think this is something the administration feels strongly about. this is something the president could have a legacy for. he's going to take this risk. >> the president also wanting to be remembered for immigration reform. he is headed to the bay area to talk by him inauguration. how realistic is the goal of getting significant legislation through the gop-led house on the issue before the end of the year? could that happen? >> before the end of the year definitely not. john boehner opened the door last week to say this is not a dead issue in the house. not a lot of people have a great deal of trust in what he is saying. the house gop has not shown a lot of movement on this question of the path to citizenship. look early next year potentially to do so however, next year is a midterm election year. some people think it is impossible to do it.

>>> the first obama administration official testifying before a house committee about the botched obama care rollout has apologized, weakly, but then she maintained the kris acceptable, incredibly, is working. listen to marilyn tavenner construct what is at the very least ahn alternative universe. >> we have a system that's working. we're going to improve the speed of that system. >> excuse me. >> yes? >> you're saying the system right now is working? >> i'm saying it's working. it's just not working at the speed that we want and at the success rate that we want. and those are the things we're working on. >> congressman trey gowdy, member of the house oversight judiciary committees. he chairs the immigration and border security subcommittee. congressman, great to have you with us. let's start with, if we may, obama care. this president lied. his administration lied. and persisted over a period of more than three years in maintaining the fiction that people could keep their insurance plans if they chose. your reaction? >> well, i hate it for my fellow citizens, but there were lots of voi

and i tend to agree with pepe this could be the only positive thing we've seen in the obama administration to foreign policy wise in a while i'm not sure a business store manager of the nixon in china analogy holds but we just don't know and certainly it's a modest risk for a big gain so i think it's i think people are going to give the benefit of doubt here for a while well i think what's happening is that the the media and certainly congress is overselling this. do you think humanity as a whole would fade from living. parts of the wall of g.m. all week just to play on the safe side view through biotechnology research through genetic modification we can give those small holder farmers the opportunity to be able to deal with and survive all of those challenges and i believe they should have all the tools. we need is one thing that i still come to understand that i don't want to good mood but i have this one question who do this. you had everything. that you gave them all no. way but. it was a late term for him he tried to restrain himself but look first out anyway. it really puts me off th

kirsten, do you think the obama administration in general is promoting self-reliance? are they promoting self-reliance in washington? >> well, i don't think what he he was talking about was. >> no, no i'm just asking you about it. i'm asking you. >> i don't think any president in recent history has really promoted self-reliance. >> calvin coolidge and ronald reagan both did. >> in recent history for me is really not ronald reagan. but my point is i don't think it's the government's -- this isn't about the government. i think what he was talking about is people being more. >> you don't think the obama administration is he promoting. >> dependent on parents not the government. >> i will take it as a no that you don't think the obama administration is -- >> -- but i don't think that they are not. i don't think they are or are not. i just don't think that that is the role of the government it to promote self-reliance. >> i do. if i were president i would be running around saying. >> you would be cutting everybody's benefits and starving them to death? >> i would have that

so, the second-term obama administration, we can make this deal. and both sides really wanted it. >> there's in some ways a mirror image of extremely different systems of government and different internal domestic political conditions, but there are camps in each side that want this relationship to be bad and see it as maximalizing and threatening and there are camps inside who are favoring diplomacy. what is it -- why have the diplomatic camps been empowered on both sides? >> i think because it's in the interests of both countries. i think it's in the interests of both countries to resolve this nuclear issue first of all and then resolve other issues that are existing between the u.s. and iran. and the only way the other issues are going to be resolved is if this nuclear issue is resolved first, because that's the priority, and prime minister netanyahu was constantly threatening to go to war with or without us against iran, and you have to put a stop to that. you have to be able to get past this nuclear issue. this takes time. there's a lot of wor
