Barack Obama actually said...

"I urge those in hurricane-threatened areas to visit www.Hurricanes.gov/Prepare to learn more about what they can do to protect themselves and their property from hurricanes."

"I call upon all Americans, especially those in hurricane-prone areas, to learn more about protecting themselves against hurricanes and to work together to respond to them."

"I've said many times that the recession we're emerging from was primarily caused by a lack of responsibility and accountability from Wall Street to Washington."

"Our Nation is still emerging from one of the worst recessions in our history, and small businesses were among the hardest hit."
