[0:02] Neither President Clinton nor the
[0:04] Congress is blinking as the budget
[0:06] battle heads toward a Monday night
[0:07] showdown. One week after the
[0:10] assassination, Israelis mourn Yetsac
[0:12] Rabbine while police arrest a soldier
[0:15] for complicity in the plot. And
[0:17] Americans honor their fighting men and
[0:19] women on Veterans Day 1995.
[0:24] This is the CBS Evening News.
[0:30] And this is Bob Schaefer reporting. Good
[0:32] evening. The possibility that parts of
[0:34] the government will have to shut down
[0:36] Monday seem more likely than ever
[0:38] tonight. Republican leaders and the
[0:40] White House spent another day blaming
[0:42] each other for not finding a compromise
[0:44] that will allow the government to borrow
[0:46] the money it needs to keep operating.
[0:48] There were a lot of charges,
[0:50] countercharges, and name calling, but in
[0:52] the end, nothing got done. Jim Stewart
[0:54] has today's developments. I think

[0:59] Management and Budget, perhaps summed it
[1:01] up best today.
[1:02] >> It seems sort of stupid to be talking
[1:03] about closing down the federal
[1:05] government. Uh closing down services
[1:08] that people really need and expect from
[1:11] their government.
[1:12] >> But that's exactly what Congress and the
[1:14] White House appear ready to do after
[1:16] another day of sniping over the budget
[1:18] ended with both sides accusing the other
[1:19] of being hard-headed. If we can't even
[1:22] talk to the president of the United
[1:23] States and we're the leaders of the
[1:24] Congress, how are we going to resolve
[1:26] this?
[1:27] >> There just doesn't seem to be um a point
[1:29] now where we can have that type of
[1:31] discussion.
[1:32] >>
