So with that, let me take a couple of questions. Ben Feller. Q Thank you, Mr. President. You’ve been telling the American people all along that you oppose extending the tax cuts for the wealthier Americans. You said that again today. But what you never said was that you oppose the tax cuts, but you’d be willing to go ahead and extend them for a couple years if th...
Let me give you another example. We want to put more Americans back to work rebuilding America -– our roads, our railways, our runways. When the housing sector collapsed and the recession hit, one in every four jobs lost were in the construction industry. That’s partly why our economic plan has invested in badly needed infrastructure projects over the last 19 mon...
Remarks of President Barack ObamaWeekly AddressThe White HouseDecember 11, 2010 Right now, there’s a big debate taking place in Washington that will affect how much you pay in taxes next year. If Congress doesn’t act, tax rates will automatically go up for just about everyone in our country. Typical middle class families would end up paying an extra $3,000.That&r...
Hi everybody. Seven years ago, the American auto industry was on the brink of collapse. Plants were closing. Hundreds of thousands of workers were getting laid off from jobs that had been their ticket to a middle-class life. And as the pain spread across the country, another one million Americans would have lost their jobs in the middle of the worst economic crisis of our li...
Hi, everybody. It's been a challenging couple weeks. The shootings in Minnesota and Baton Rouge; the protests; the targeting and murder of police officers in Dallas – it's left all of us struggling to make sense of things at times. Now, I know that for many, it can feel like the deepest fault lines of our democracy have suddenly been exposed, and even widened. ...
The Beijing Olympic Games are "truly exceptional Games," said International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Jacques Rogge at the Games’ closing ceremony staged in the National Stadium in northern Beijing on Sunday night. He repeated the words in French. "Through these Games, the world learned more about China, and China learned more about the world. At...
We recently signed export deals with India and China that will support more than 250,000 jobs here in the United States. We finalized a trade agreement with South Korea that will support at least 70,000 American jobs. And by the way, it’s a deal that has unprecedented support from business and labor, Democrats and Republicans. That’s the kind of deal that I will ...
Hi, everybody. Four years after the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes, our economy is growing again and creating jobs. But we have much more to do. Our task now is to build on that progress. Because this nation only succeeds when we’ve got a growing, thriving middle class. That’s what drives me. That’s what I campaigned on for the past year. That’...
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you so much. Everybody, please have a seat, have a seat.Hello, Fairless Hills! Hello, Gamesa! It is good to be here. I was here three years ago. I was then a candidate — how many folks were here at the time? Anybody remember? (Applause.) We had a good visit. I signed a blade, I think, while I was here. I didn’t have as much gray hair back the...
Hi, everybody. This Labor Day weekend, as we gather with family and friends, we’ll also come together as a nation to honor some of our own-the working men and women of America who, across the generations, built this country up and helped make us who we are today. On Monday, we’ll celebrate that proud history. We’ll pay tribute to the values working American...
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you, everybody. Everybody, please have a seat. I am having so much fun! (Laughter.) It is great to see all of you here for our first White House Science Fair. I have been looking forward to doing this for a long time. One of the great joys of being President is getting to meet young people like all of you — and some of the folks in the other room w...
Q I’ve got a very general question. THE PRESIDENT: Okay, go ahead. Q It’s a very general question, here. I work on Wall Street. I was wondering what kind of changes we can expect to see in the reform in the next couple years. THE PRESIDENT: Well, here’s the essential components of Wall Street reform that we set up. Number one is that we got a — we had...
Hello, everyone. It’s been almost three weeks since I sent the American Jobs Act to Congress – three weeks since I sent them a bill that would put people back to work and put money in people’s pockets. This jobs bill is fully paid for. This jobs bill contains the kinds of proposals that Democrats and Republicans have supported in the past. And now I want it...
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, it’s a pleasure to welcome President Lobo to the White House, and this gives us an opportunity to reaffirm the friendship between the American and the Honduran people. Not only has Honduras been a traditionally close partner with the United States, but the people-to-people relationship is profound（深厚的） , particularly given the Honduran-Ameri...
Remarks of President Barack ObamaWeekly AddressAugust 21, 2010 As the political season heats up, Americans are already being inundated（淹没） with the usual phone calls, mailings, and TV ads from campaigns all across the country. But this summer, they’re also seeing a flood of attack ads run by shadowy groups with harmless-sounding names. We don’t know who&rsquo...
For millions of Americans, this weekend is a time to celebrate redemption（赎回，拯救） at God’s hand. Tonight, Jews will gather for a second Seder, where they will retell the story of the Exodus. And tomorrow, my family will join Christians around the world as we thank God for the all-important gift of grace through the resurrection（复活，恢复） of His son, and exper...
Now, over these last few weeks, during what we’ve called Education Month around the White House, I’ve been traveling across the country talking with folks about education. In fact, we’ve actually been doing that for the last couple of years. And what I’ve heard, what Arne has heard, what the rest of my team has heard loud and clear from teachers and s...
发展和安全并重，以确保安全为前提发展核能事业。 The world should place equal emphasis on development and security, and develop nuclear energy on the premise of security. 任何以牺牲安全为代价的核能发展都难以持续，都不是真正的发展。 Developing nuclear energy at the expense of security can neither be sustainable nor bring real development. 核能的开发利用给人类发展带来了新的动力...
On Monday, an act of terror wounded dozens and killed three innocent people at the Boston Marathon. But in the days since, the world has witnessed one sure and steadfast（坚定的） truth: Americans refuse to be terrorized. Ultimately, that’s what we’ll remember from this week. That’s what will remain. Stories of heroism and kindness; resolve and resilience; ...
So with that, let me take a few questions. I’ll start with Jim Kuhnhenn of AP. Q New jobless numbers today back in the States. You’re on a pace to face the voters with the highest unemployment rate of any postwar President. And doesn’t that make you significantly vulnerable to a Republican who might run on a message of change? And if I may add, given that y...
