Barack Obama actually said...

"We reaffirm our shared commitment to see that the winner of the recent elections takes his rightful role as President of Cote D'Ivoire."

"We need to make sure that the breakthroughs, the technological breakthroughs that come to define the 21st century, that they take root right here in America."

"I recommend that the Senate give early and favorable consideration to the proposed Protocol and related Agreement and give its advice and consent to their ratification."

"We can't take that attitude."
