Barack Obama actually said...

"There is only one president at a time. That president is George W. Bush, and he will be president until I'm sworn in on January 20."

"They're not going to accept amounts greater than $50,000."

"I don't think that there's any question that we have a mandate to move the country in a new direction and not continue the same old practices that have gotten us in the fix that we're in."

"Whether that's done through repeal or whether that's done because the Bush tax cuts are not renewed is something that my economic team will be providing me a recommendation on."
