[obama White House] Rescued The Economy From

Republicans Are 'bad People Who Deserve A Two-by-four Upside Their Heads.'

You Never Want A Serious Crisis To Go To Waste.

I Saw The President Make The Tough Calls In The Situation Room - And Today, Our Troops In Iraq Have Finally Come Home So America Can Do Some Nation Building Here At Home. That Was The Change That We Believed In. That Was The Change We Fought For. That Was The Change President Obama Delivered.

Counting The Numbers Of Troops Is Not Going To Define Our Success Here.there Is No Military Success, Ultimately, To Afghanistan. The Afghans Themselves Are Going To Define What Happens Here. And We Have To Convince Ourselves That We Have A Strategy In Place That Empowers Them To Do That And That Is Realistic In What Our Expectations Are From Them And On What Schedule.

Our Troops Are The Best In The World. I Have Absolute Confidence In The Ability Of The Troops Who Are Here, Or Additional Troops, To Do Their Part.
