Barack Obama actually said...

"It's not about the day-to-day ups and downs; it's where you're trying to go and where you're trying to take the country."

"The American people need some confidence that if we actually put a package together we can execute."

"This is obviously a very serious situation, and every American should know that their entire Government is taking the utmost precautions and preparations."

"You're who I'm working for every single day in the White House."
