What I liked was Obama’s response, since he was completely off-guard. In essence, he said he expects differences of opinion on the way he solves problems. He concluded by saying something like: “You elected me to lead and that's what I'm doing.”

Really? As I've said before, Obama couldn't lead a group of starving people to a free buffet. I've seen ball bearings with a better grasp of economics.

"You elected me to get the car out of the ditch that Bush drove it into--"

"Uh, The Democrat Congress elected in 2006 was responsible for the budget. They drove the car into the ditch."

'Well, it's in a damn ditch and I'm doing all I can to get it out!"

"All you, Pelosi, and Reid have done is drive it further into the ditch. It's under ten feet of mud now."

"Look! I'm doing all I can! I'm a community organizer, not an engineer, dammit!"
