Barack Obama actually said...

"Smoke alarms are vital detection devices, and properly installing and maintaining them in the home can help keep our families safe."

"As your President and as a fellow American, I want to take this moment to say... how particularly proud and grateful I am to my outgoing Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel."

"President Obama today offered his, quote, 'profound apology' to the president of Guatemala for a study that infected hundreds in that country with sexually transmitted diseases."

"The president praised Emanuel for his, quote, 'unmatched level of energy and enthusiasm.'"
