Barack Obama actually said...

"I have a clear vision, which I described in Berlin that day... of how we uphold dignity and freedom of all individuals."

"What I've put forward is a presidential directive that very clearly indicates what we will do and will not do when it comes to overseas surveillance."

"I firmly believe that this can be a breakthrough year for America."

"But to make that happen, we're going to have to act: to create good jobs that pay good wages and to offer more Americans a fair shot to get ahead."
