Remarks of President Barack Obama

As Prepared for Delivery

Saturday, April 16, 2011

Washington, DC

This week, I laid out my plan for our fiscal future. It¶s a balanced plan that reduces spending and brings down the deficit, putting America back on track toward paying down our debt.

We know why this challenge is so critical. If we don¶t act, a rising tide of borrowing willdamage our economy, costing us jobs and risking our future prosperity by sticking our childrenwith the bill.

At the same time, we have to take a balanced approach to reducing our deficit ± an approach that protects the middle class, our commitments to seniors, and job-creating investments in thingslike education and clean energy. What¶s required is an approach that draws support from both parties, and one that¶s based on the values of shared responsibility and shared prosperity.

Now, one plan put forward by some Republicans in the House of Representatives aims to reduceour deficit by $4 trillion over the next ten years. But while I think their goal is worthy, I believetheir vision is wrong for America.

It¶s a vision that says at a time when other nations are hustling to out-compete us for the jobs and businesses of tomorrow, we have to make drastic cuts in education, infrastructure, and cleanenergy ± the very investments we need to win that competition and get those jobs.

It¶s a vision that says that in order to reduce the deficit, we have to end Medicare as we know it,and make cuts to Medicaid that would leave millions of seniors, poor children, and Americans

Earlier this week, the President proposed a balanced approach to cut the deficit, which matches the $4 trillion in deficit reduction put forward by House Republicans¶ plan.

The President¶s proposal does this by combing the entire budget for savings and askingeveryone to do their part.

At the same time, we have to take a balanced approach to reducing our deficit ± an approachthat protects the middle class, our commitments to seniors, and job-creating investments inthings like education and clean energy.

But even as this plan proposes these drastic cuts, it would also give $1 trillion in tax breaks tothe wealthiest 2% of Americans ± an extra $200,000 for every millionaire and billionaire in thecountry.

I don¶t think that¶s right. I don¶t think it¶s right to ask seniors to pay thousands more for health

Perhaps also from this period are the interesting

Swanscombe skull from the Thames, which was

found in 1935 and is probably to be dated in the

second inter-glacial; the Fontéchevade skull, found

in France in 1947, which appears to belong to the

early part of the third interglacial (Riss-Wiirm); and

the skull of a young woman found in a cave at Stein-

heim, Germany, in 1933, which likewise appears to

be from the third interglacial.

The Aegyptiaca and Scythica appear as long digressions;

the Lydians and Persians have their story woven in with Greekaffairs, but they are also given space for customs and manners;

and the Greeks themselves appear in semi-mythical form at

times (with unmistakable influences from epic and tragedy). Yetthe work as a whole is surely a history.

In 1926 a paleolithic type of spear point

(the Folsom Point) was discovered in New

Mexico in association with an extinct

species of bison. The favored date for this

point is c. 10,000 B.C. But two earlier types

of point (Sandia and Clovis Flutes) have

been found associated with mammothremains, calling for a date of at least c.

15,000 B.C. The conservative estimates

now run up to 35,000 B.C.,8and some are

even prophesying "that the next few years will

show the presence of man on this continent

long before 'the end of the Pleistocene.' "

On his deathbed, Darius left the throne to Arses, whotook the royal name Artaxerxes II. The satrapTissaphernes took the opportunity toaccuse Cyrus of plotting against the new Great King.Artaxerxes, believing the charge, had his younger brother arrested. Parysatis, though, intervenedto keep Artaxerxes from executingCyrus, and senthim back to Ionia. Cyrus took the lesson to heart. Theonly way to keep his head off the chopping block was to depose Artaxerxes and become Great

King himself. He set about making his preparations.

Like the siege of Troy, the siege of Jericho is thesubject of much speculation over the recordedsource (which was written after a significantamount of time had elapsed) and the archaeologicalevidence. Although the details of the biblicalaccount of the fall of Jericho are much sketchier than the extended story of Troy told by Homer,modern evidence unearthed at Tel es-Sultan (themodern site of ancient Jericho) gives a greater substantiation to the Hebrew-Canaanite battle.

The rest now took their seats and kept to their own several places, but Thersites still went on wagging his unbridled

tongue- a man of many words, and those unseemly; a

monger of sedition, a railer against all who were inauthority, who cared not what he said, so that he might set

the Achaeans in a laugh. He was the ugliest manof all those that came before Troy- bandy-legged, lame of

one foot, with his two shoulders rounded and hunchedover his chest. His head ran up to a point, but there was

little hair on the top o f it.Achilles and Ulysses hated him worst of all, for it was

with them that he was most wont to wrangle; now,however, with a shrill squeaky voice he began heaping his

abuse on Agamemnon. The Achaeans were angry and

disgusted, yet none the less he kept on brawling and

bawling at the son of Atreus.



At the same time, we have to take a balanced approach to reducing our deficit ± an approach that protects the middle class, our commitments to seniors, and job-creating investments in thingslike education and clean energy.



This was from the Left Naval Commander of the same

area, reporting that a further 350 Japanese ships had

now entered Pusan harbour, and that he and Wn

dealing with a very serious development in the

relations between Korea and Japan.

The new generals had been selected as leaders of the existingcontingents, but preparing for the retreat up the Tigris demandedsome changes in contingent organization. Facing superior Persiancavalry and without horsemen of their own, the mercenariesdecided to adopt a hollow square ( plaision) for marching (see

below, p. 155, and Figs. 6.3, 6.4). Xenophon and Timasion took therear of this formation, while Cheirisophus took the lead, andCleanor, Philesius, Sophaenetus, and Xanthicles commanded theflanks in unspecified pairs.67 Since the existing contingents weregrossly unequal in hoplite strength, ranging from Timasion¶s 3,000to Xanthicles¶ 500, there must have been some shifting about of

lochoi amongst contingents in order to create the rectangular formation Xenophon describes.68 The peltasts too departed their original contingents, some taking up positions at the front and rear

while others remained as a central reserve within the square.69

A n image is conceived, a supernormal image,

surpassing in scope the requirements of food,

game and to play out the fraction of one's part in the

picture. But then, behold! a transformation of life, an

increment such as before had not been even

imagined, and therewith a new horizon, both for man

and for his gods. It was in the marvelous talent of the

Sumerians for their extremely demanding divine play

that civilization was born as a function of an

aristocracy of spirit. A nd it was continued as such in

many parts of the world up to a very recent date.

When, at length, the day was far advanced, Caesar learned

through spies, that the mountain was in possession of his own

Considius, struck with fear, had reported to him, as seen, thatwhich he had not seen. On that day he follows the enemy at his

usual distance, and pitches his camp three miles from theirs.




It¶s a vision that says at a time when other nations are hustling to out-compete us for the jobsand businesses of tomorrow, we have to make drastic cuts in education, infrastructure, and cleanenergy ± the very investments we need to win that competition and get those jobs.

It¶s a vision that says that in order to reduce the deficit, we have to end Medicare as we know it,

After Cunaxa, and especially after the seizure of the generals, probably the usual pattern was for troops to carry as muchfood as they could, for they never knew when they might run across

the next supply source. A daily water or wine ration of two literswould add an additional 2 kg (4.4 lb) to a soldier¶s burden. Becausethey traveled wellwatered territory, probably the Cyreans carried nomore than a single day¶s ration. An exception that shows normal practice appears in the Arcadian±Achaean secession episode.Surrounded by angry natives and cut off from nearby streams, theArcadians and Achaeans ran low on water after a single day,suggesting that they had not carried any reserve.97 Finally, each manneeded at least a kilogram of firewood daily; as with food, the

amount of fuel Cyreans carried depended on the situation.98

he Roman Republic first showed an interest in Iberia in the

In the end, its intense political orientation, which was the

Nothing in what we have points explicitly beyond the year 144, and, apart from

reclining, covered with wrappings, signifying that he was absent or

"as one who lays him down to sleep, and that when he should wake

from that dream of absence, would rise to rule again the land."81He

had built mansions underground to the Lord of Mictlan, the lord of

the dead, but did not occupy these himself, dwelling, rather, in that

land of gold where the sun abides at night.

The S, unsurprisingly, had their wings clipped, with the

number of licensed ships reduced and Japanese

settlement restricted to Chinhae, although Pusan was

restored as a treaty port in 1521. Frustrated in their

When Persian cavalry got close to his sector, he also had to keep an eyeout for anyone slipping away from ranks on the pretext of fetchingsomething from the baggage. If one of his soldiers fell wounded, Arystas probably also tried to prevent more than the minimum number of suskenoi from dropping out of column to carry their incapacitatedcomrade. At least his casualties had friends close by; the peltasts outthere skirmishing with the Persians had little chance of retrieval if theyfell.131 As he watched the peltasts come tumbling back, dust-covered and panting, from yet another sortie outside the square, Arystas must have been thankful that he was not amongst them.

The Great Charter of English liberty granted (under considerableduress) by KingJohn at Runnymede on June 15, 12151. John, by the grace of God King of England, Lord of Ireland, Duke of

Normandy and Aquitaine, and Count of Anjou, to his archbishops, bishops,abbots, earls, barons, justices, foresters, sheriffs, stewards, servants, and to all hisofficials and loyal subjects, greeting.

Know that before God, for the health of our soul and those of our ancestors andheirs, to the honour of God, the exaltation of the holy Church, and the better ordering of our kingdom, at the advice of our reverend fathers Stephen,archbishop of Canterbury, primate of all England, and cardinal of the holyRoman Church, Henry archbishop of Dublin, William bishop of London, Peter

1. First, that we have granted to God, and by this present charter have confirmedfor us and our heirs in perpetuity, that the English Church shall be free, and shallhave its rights undiminished, and its liberties unimpaired. That we wish this so to

be observed, appears from the fact that of our own free will, before the outbreak of the present dispute between us and our barons, we granted and confirmed bycharter the freedom of the Church's elections - a right reckoned to be of thegreatest necessity and importance to it - and caused this to be confirmed by PopeInnocent III. This freedom we shall observe ourselves, and desire to be observedin good faith by our heirs in perpetuity.

WASHINGTON ± In his weekly address, President Obama said that to restore fiscalresponsibility, we all need to share in the sacrifice ± but we don¶t have to sacrifice the Americawe believe in. Earlier this week, the President proposed a balanced approach to cut the deficit,which matches the $4 trillion in deficit reduction put forward by House Republicans¶ plan.

The President¶s proposal does this by combing the entire budget for savings and asking

everyone to do their part. The Republican plan, though, would end Medicare as we know it andmake drastic cuts to education, infrastructure and clean energy, while giving away $1 trillion intax breaks to the wealthiest two percent.

The two armies were burning with impatience to attack each other. But the Emperor dreading the irresistiblefirst shock of the Latin cavalry hit upon a new device.He had wagons built, smaller and lighter than theordinary ones, and four poles fixed to each, in these he placed heavy infantry so that when the Latins camedashing down at full gallop upon the Roman phalanx,the heavy-armed infantry should push the wagons

forward and thus break the Latins' line.

Similarly, Serbia reverted to autonomous status within the OttomanEmpire.Alienated provinces were restored to Serbian administration,and all taxes on Serbians were to be combined into a single levy.

position changes less from day to day, and so it spends more days)than in the middle. The actual anta orientations, on the other hand,fall mainly toward the middle of the range. This could be explained

in one of two ways.

This Article unfolds in a number of steps. In Part One, I makethe case that the Framers were substantially influenced byancient history and classical political theory, and I very brieflyexamine the education of the members of the FramingGeneration²the availability of classical readings and sources tothe Framers and their inculcation in classical republican values.

In Part Two, I turn to Roman Republican models of Americanconstitutionalism and consider the theory of mixed governmentas applied to the Roman constitution and the distribution of

powers among the organizations and institutions of the RomanRepublic, as well as the way that the Framers understood these

classical constitutional designs.

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected themwith another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, theseparate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature'sGod entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankindrequires that they should declare the causes which impel themto the separation.

An additional 8,150 warheads areestimated to be in reserveor awaiting dismantlement, for atotal inventory of approximately13,000 nuclear warheads.

This spirit of unity and common purpose would not lahowever. In Washington¶s cabinet were men whosedifferences would soon become so great that they wouform political parties to clarify their views and position

the key issues of the day.



the $4 trillion in deficit reduction put forward by House Republicans¶ plan. The President¶s proposal does this by combing the entire budget for savings and asking everyone to do their part.


It was Bill Clinton¶s singular contribution that he tried to transcend this ideologicaldeadlock, recognizing not only that what had come to be meant by the labels of ³conservative´ and ³liberal´ played to Republican advantage, but that the categorieswere inadequate to address the problems we faced. At times during his first campaign,his gestures toward disaffected Reagan Democrats could seem clumsy and transparent(what ever happened to Sister Souljah?) or frighteningly coldhearted (allowing theexecution of a mentally retarded death row inmate to go forward on the eve of animportant primary). In the first two years of his presidency, he would be forced toabandon some core elements of his platform²universal health care, aggressive

investment in education and training²that might have more decisively reversed thelong-term trends that were undermining the position of working families in the neweconomy.

Pursuant to Article I of the Treaty between the United States of America and the Russian Federation on Measures for the Further

Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms, hereinafter referred to as the Treaty, the Parties hereby agree upon the followingprovisions regarding

implementation of the Treaty.

Kurilov would later find out his challenger wasanother spetsnaz officer assigned to guard theAfghan VIPs. It was his first meeting with amember of ³Group A,´ later called Alpha, an eliteunit formed by KGB chief Andropov. Kurilov andthe other officer, Alyosha Baev, would becomefriends after the onset of fighting drew them

together.

The Barber and the Back Door: Shaving the Anal Area

Although it is not widely discussed, many people find thatshaving their own or their partner's anal area can be veryerotic.

Guidelines for shaving the anal area are very similar to thosefor shaving a woman's pubic area or a man's balls and pubicarea. Use a regular disposable razor²leave the wielding of

straight razors to the professionals²and plenty of nonirritating shaving cream (I find Aveeno Shaving GeITM

with oatmeal ideal). Find a clean, well-lit place to work, go

slowly, and be careful. If you're shaving your own anus, usea hand-held mirror so you can see exactly what you're doing.



At the same time, we have to take a balanced approach to reducing our deficit ± an approachthat protects the middle class, our commitments to seniors, and job-creating investments inthings like education and clean energy. What¶s required is an approach that draws support from both parties, and one that¶s based on the values of shared responsibility and shared prosperity.

Now, one plan put forward by some Republicans in the House of Representatives aims to reduceour deficit by $4 trillion over the next ten years. But while I think their goal is worthy, I believetheir vision is wrong for America.

It¶s a vision that says at a time when other nations are hustling to out-compete us for the jobs and

There was another ³wake-up call´ to the threat of WMD, thistime in Tokyo, Japan, when a guru named Shoko Asaharainstructed followers to use nerve agents (sarin) against his real or perceived enemies.In 1995, Shoko Asahara¶s cult (Aum Shinrikyo) struck at theTokyo authorities by releasing a nerve agent on the subwaysystem. The death toll was 12, with thousands injured. The endresult of the Tokyo subway attack was less than many expertsexpected from a WMD attack. Still, it made a tremendous impact,

not only on Japanese society but also on how governments aroundthe world reevaluated the CBW terrorist threat.

General Solovtsov said that Russia would conduct 13missile launches in 2009; five would support thedevelopment of new missiles, three would confirmthe life-extension of existing missiles, and five wouldlaunch satellites into orbit using SS-18s.8

Development of a new ICBM appears to beunderway. U.S. intelligence reported in March 2006that a new ICBM, which could be deployed in bothland- and sea-based versions, may be under development but had not yet been test-launched.9 InDecember 2007, a spokesman for the StrategicMissile Force stated, ³In the next 5±10 years,Russia¶s [missile force] may adopt a new, moreadvanced ballistic missile system [than the Topol-

M]´ for possible deployment starting in 2017.10

Even then, the scheme was vague; Drozdov didn¶t evenhave a floor plan of Amin¶s palace, which the KGB would put together later.

The most effective method for securing the Russian CW and BW programs would be destruction of current stockpiles, conversion of former production facilities, and the provision of peaceful work for

former weapons scientists so that they are not lured into illicit programsin nations of concern. Russia has run into several problems inachieving these goals. Destruction of current stockpiles, for example,

imposes an economic burden on Russia that it can ill afford.

businesses of tomorrow, we have to make drastic cuts in education, infrastructure, and cleanenergy ± the very investments we need to win that competition and get those jobs.


But even as this plan proposes these drastic cuts, it would also give $1 trillion in tax breaks to

As the Secretary General of the United Nations, an organizations of the 147

member states who represent almost all of the human inhabitants of the planet

earth. I send greetings on behalf of the people of our planet. We step out of

our solar system into the universe seeking only peace and friendship, to teach

if we are called upon, to be taught if we are fortunate. We know full well that

our planet and all its inhabitants are but a small part of the immense universe

that surrounds us and it is with humility and hope that we take this step.

I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm)

that I will support and defend the

Constitution of the United States and the

State of (STATE NAME) against all enemies,

foreign and domestic; that I will bear true

faith and allegiance to the same; and that I

will obey the orders of the President of theUnited States and the Governor of (STATE

NAME) and the orders of the officers

appointed over me, according to law and

regulations. So help me God.

While I give you these assurances, and pledge

myself in the most unequivocal manner to exert

whatever ability I am possessed of in your

favor, let me entreat you, gentlemen, on your

part, not to take any measures which, viewed

in the calm light of reason, will lessen the

dignity and sully the glory you have hitherto

maintained; let me request you to rely on the

plighted faith of your country, and place a

full confidence in the purity of the

intentions of Congress; that, previous to your

dissolution as an army, they will cause all

your accounts to be fairly liquidated, as

directed in their resolutions, which were

published to you two days ago, and that they

will adopt the most effectual measures in

their power to render ample justice to you,

for your faithful and meritorious services.



the wealthiest 2% of Americans ± an extra $200,000 for every millionaire and billionaire in thecountry.



When I was about twelve, sitting on my uncle Buddys porch in Hope, a

man walked up the steps, looked at me, and said, Youre Bill Blythes

son. You look just like him. I beamed for days.

Still, when I think about what that old Washington hand told me thatnight, when I ponder the work of a George Kennan or a George Marshall,when I read the speeches of a Bobby Kennedy or an Everett Dirksen, Ican¶t help feeling that the politics of today suffers from a case of arresteddevelopment. For these men, the issues America faced were never abstract and hence never simple. War might be hell and still the rightthing to do. Economies could collapse despite the best-laid plans. People

could work hard all their lives and still lose everything.

Nonstrategic weapons. The Russian government provides little information about its inventory of nonstrategic nuclear warheads.This secrecy only encourages rumors and distrust.President Boris Yeltsin pledged in 1992 that productof warheads for groundlaunched tactical missiles,artillery shells, and mines had stopped and that all ofthose warheads would be eliminated. In addition, he

pledged that Russia would dispose of half of all tactiairborne and surface-to-air warheads, as well as one-third of all tactical naval warheads. The RussianForeign Ministry declared in 2004 that ³more than 50

percent´ of these tactical warheads had been³liquidated,´ and in 2007, a Russian Defense Ministrspokesman provided a further update.20

He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights

of the people.

He believed that his state¶s governor²William

McKinley²could become the president, and he setabout to make this a reality. Hanna focused on wooingdelegates in the South, in the Ohio Valley, and in the

region of the Great Lakes.





So that¶s my approach to reduce the deficit by $4 trillion over the next 12 years while protectingthe middle class, keeping our promise to seniors, and securing our investments in our future. Ihope you¶ll check it out for yourself on WhiteHouse.gov. And while you¶re there, you can alsofind what we¶re calling the taxpayer receipt. For the first time ever, there¶s a way for you to seeexactly how and where your tax dollars are spent, and what¶s really at stake in this debate.

Now he believed the PDPA¶s reforms, however ruthlesslyimplemented, had set his country on the right course, specificallythat the revolution would help pull the Afghan people out of illiteracy and poverty. He also believed most of them supported thegovernment¶s efforts. The pivotal Herat uprising in April 1979, hethought, was orchestrated by military officers with ties to Iran, andfar fewer civilians died in the violence than the rebels claimed.




You expect us to work together and get this done. And I believe we can. I believe we can livewithin our means and live up to the values we share as Americans. And in the weeks to come,I¶ll work with anyone who¶s willing to get it done.


The United States has cooperative programswith Russia to assist with the destruction process. In

addition to cooperative threat reduction programs,Russia is also seeking to engage in joint ventureswith Western chemical and pharmaceutical companies

to generate revenue and to create transparencywithin their legitimate research, development, and

production facilities. Unfortunately, financial hardship

and political instability in Russia do not makeit an attractive place for foreign investment.
