What we ought not do is play politics with those who've been afflicted by disasters. This should not be controversial. Stop playing politics, do the right thing for the country and let's make sure we're not making politics with disaster relief.

From David Plouffe

It's really a question of fairness and what kind of country we're going to live in. There are 22,000 people making over $1 million. They're paying an effective tax rate in the teens. As Warren Buffett said, he pays less in taxes effectively than his secretary does. That's not right.

From David Plouffe

And so whether it's failing to move forward on the Dream Act, failing to move forward on putting teachers back to work, failing to do all the things we could do right now to help the economy and middle class, this Congress is just saying no.

From David Plouffe

Our opponent and many in Congress criticized our decision to end the Iraq war.

From David Plouffe

I've ceased making predictions on things because we'll see how they turn out.

From David Plouffe

Gov. Romney said he would veto the Dream Act. Gov. Romney essentially said the 11 million people ought to just go home, they ought to self-deport. President Romney, if he is elected, is not going to fix our immigration system.

From David Plouffe

Everyone in our administration is going to cooperate.

From David Plouffe

So we still need a permanent fix. The president would sign the Dream Act tomorrow, the next day, the day after that. That's ultimately the only way to fix this, is for congressional action.

From David Plouffe

The American people want to have trust in their leaders.

From David Plouffe

You ask people, 'should we go back to square one?' People don't want to do that.
