Loved the last line. Nice job on the super secret million dollar bomb buses Barry. Never had them....but they've used the same principles for years. Now they need them. Hey it's only money right?
The president referred to the “debt debacle” that he just concluded with congressional Republicans, calling out Speaker John A. Boehner, Ohio Republican, by name for resisting the president’s efforts to raise taxes as part of a proposal to cut the deficit by $4 trillion over 10 years.
“I put a deal before the Speaker of the House, John Boehner, that would have solved this problem,” Mr. Obama said. “And he walked away. His belief was we can’t ask anything of millionaires and billionaires and big corporations. Think about that. I mean, that’s just not common sense,”

"In a nutshell, stripped of rhetoric, this is what he is saying on the campaign trail:
President George Bush caused America's huge debt by running up the bills for two wars on credit
Growth is returning to the economy but America's recovery has been damaged by accidents, such as the Japanese earthquake, that no-one could have forseen or prevented
