In remarks to be delivered Monday evening at Kalamazoo Central High School, Obama says it's easy to blame others when problems arise. "We see it every day out in Washington, with folks calling each other names and making all sorts of accusations on TV," the president said.
the president on the economy:
By any measure my administration has inherited a fiscal disaster.
"After they drove the car into the ditch, made it as difficult as possible for us to pull it back, now they want the keys back," said Obama, who also pointed to the 1.3-trillion-deficit he said he inherited from his predecessor, George W. Bush.
the president on terrorists and foreign wars:
He described his role as "clean[ing] up the mess" left by Bush.
the president on why massachusetts elected a republican to fill ted kennedys former senate seat:
"The same thing that swept Scott Brown into office swept me into office," Obama said. "People are angry, and they're frustrated. Not just because of what's happened in the last year or two years, but what's happened over the last eight years."
the president on the BP oil spill:
For too long, for a decade or more, there has been a cozy relationship between the oil companies and the federal agency that permits them to drill.
the white house strategy for the midterm elections:
Two years later the president is tentatively unveiling the strategy he and fellow Democrats will pursue in this fall’s election season, and it has a heavy dose of ... looking backward. It’s going to be as much about history as hope, and more about attacking Republicans than promoting his own vision.
actions speak louder than words mr president.
