  3. “This other side, I don’t know how they’ve been bamboozling folks into thinking they are the responsible, fiscally disciplined party. They run up these wild debts and then when we take over we got to clean it up. And they point and say, look how irresponsible they are. Look at the facts! Look at the numbers!”

  7. “We can define our lives not by what happens to us, but by how we respond. We can choose to carry on. We can choose to make a difference in the world. And in doing so, we can make true what’s written in Scripture -– that “tribulation produces perseverance, and perseverance, character, and character, hope.”

  10. “When you’re president, as opposed to the head of a private equity firm, then your job is not simply to maximize profits. Your job is to figure out how everybody in the country has a fair shot… And so if your main argument for how to grow the economy is ‘I knew how to make a lot of money for investors,’ then you’re missing what this job is about.”

SAD. Today marks the one-year anniversary of the devastating tornado that hit Joplin, MO and killed 161 people. On Monday, President Obama was in Joplin where he delivered a speech to the Joplin High School graduating class of 2012. “The road has been hard and the day has been long, but we march, and we march together,” said Obama. “And you’re leading the way. Because you’re from Joplin.”

  15. “Under President Obama’s leadership the nation is embarking on an ambitious exploration program, that will take us farther into space than we’ve ever been before.”

    — NASA Administrator Charles Bolden

  16. “We can ill afford the expense of an “Apollo on steroids”, as a former NASA Administrator referred to the Ares/Orion program. A lesser President might have waited until after the upcoming election cycle, not caring that billions more dollars would be wasted. It was disappointing to see how many in Congress did not possess this courage. One senator in particular was determined to achieve a new altitude record in hypocrisy, claiming that the public option was bad in healthcare, but good in space!”
