Barack Obama actually said...

"We are here today for a simple reason: at a time when we face not only a fiscal crisis, but also a host of difficult challenges as a nation, business as usual in Washington just won't do."

"Health care reform will not add one dime to our deficit."

"I hope all of you guys remember that as well."

"We've done what some said was impossible: preventing wasteful spending on outdated weapons systems that even the Pentagon says it doesn't need."
