I'm willing to cut military spending.


To cut spending we would have to cut veterans benefits, medicare or social security benefits. Ridiculous........Notice how military spending isn't even a option.

Defended his economic program.

President Barack Obama defended his economic program in starkly personal terms Monday after coming face-to-face with supporters who said, bluntly, that he had let them down. The first two questioners from the audience at a live CNBC town hall meeting both expressed a sense of personal disappointment with Obama, with one man asking, “Is the American Dream dead?” And CNBC’s moderator John Harwood asked Obama whether his elite education, personal style and “racial heritage” might make it hard for average Americans to believe that he is feeling their suffering. “I think when unemployment is high and people are having a tough time it doesn’t matter if I was green, it doesn’t matter if I was purple, people would still be frustrated and understandably so,” Obama said. “The whole reason I ran was because my life is a testament to the American dream.”.Link
