Today on Capital Hill, Pres. Obama, looking confident focused emerging from meetings with Senate and House leaders and held a surprise briefing. He started off by addressing his offices first year record, stating that he is listening to both sides as well as the American people. He expressed that he will not stop working for reform in both Government as well as private enterprise. Obama feels that in his first year there has been much political partisanship and legislative delay tactics that are keeping the Government from functioning optionally. A point of contention was the tactic that is delaying the President cabinet to be filled (apparently the longest in history) He put out a call for US government leaders to put aside the current political environment and compromise. Obama spoke of an important bill in the Senate that had not been passed that would assign a budget advisory board, so now he is going to make one by executive order, "Math is not partisan". He addressed health reform as ongoing threat to the National Economy.
