Barack Obama actually said...

"He's been very supportive. I thought he showed extraordinary restraint in a fairly provocative interview while he was on his trip."

"I'm letting our respective teams work out the details. I don't think we're looking for catharsis. I think what we're looking for is energy and excitement about the prospects of changing this country."

"Obama doing little to defuse allegations that he's getting a big head."

"I AM the biggest celebrity in the world."
