Obama: 'There Were No
Winners In This'
Government Shutdown
Hi everybody. This week, because Democrats and
responsible Republicans came together, the government was
reopened, and the threat of default was removed from our
economy.
There's been a lot of discussion lately of the politics of
this shutdown. But the truth is, there were no winners in this.
At a time when our economy needs more growth and more
jobs, the manufactured crises of these last few weeks actually
harmed jobs and growth. And it's understandable that your
frustration with what goes on in Washington has never been
higher.
The way business is done in Washington has to change.
Now that these clouds of crisis and uncertainty have lifted, we
need to focus on what the majority of Americans sent us here
to do grow the economy, create good jobs, strengthen the
middle class, lay the foundation for broad-based prosperity,
and get our fiscal house in order for the long haul.
It won't be easy. But we can make progress. Specifically,
there are three places where I believe that Democrats and
Republicans can work together right away.
First, we should sit down and pursue a balanced
approach to a responsible budget, one that grows our
economy faster and shrinks our long-term deficits further.
There is no choice between growth and fiscal responsibility -
we need both. So we're making a serious mistake if a budget
doesn't focus on what you're focused on: creating more good
jobs that pay better wages. If we're going to free up resources
for the things that help us grow - education, infrastructure,
research - we should cut what we don't need, and close
corporate tax loopholes that don't help create jobs. This
shouldn't be as difficult as it has been in past years.
Remember, our deficits are shrinking- not growing.
Second, we should finish the job of fixing our broken
immigration system. There's already a broad coalition across
America that's behind this effort, from business leaders to faith
leaders to law enforcement. It would grow our economy. It
would secure our borders. The Senate has already passed a bill
with strong bipartisan support. Now the House should, too. The
majority of Americans thinks this is the right thing to do. It can
and should get done by the end of this year.
Third, we should pass a farm bill - one that America's
farmers and ranchers can depend on, one that protects
vulnerable children and adults in times of need, and one that
gives rural communities opportunities to grow and the longer-
term certainty they deserve.
We won't suddenly agree on everything now that the
cloud of crisis has passed. But we shouldn't hold back on
places where we do agree, just because we don't think it's
good politics, or just because the extremes in our parties don't
like compromise. I'll look for willing partners from either party
to get important work done. There's no good reason why we
can't govern responsibly, without lurching from manufactured
crisis to manufactured crisis. Because that isn't governing - it's
just hurting the people we were sent here to serve.
Those of us who have the privilege to serve this
country have an obligation to do our job the best we can.
We come from different parties, but we're Americans first.
And our obligations to you must compel all of us,
Democrats and Republicans, to cooperate, and compromise,
and act in the best interests of this country we love.
Thanks everybody, and have a great weekend.

DIRECTIONS:
Read an excerpt from President
Manuel L. Quezon’s speech. In your
notebook, write down three (3)
statements indicating factual information
and three (3) statements expressing
subjective content from the speech.
My Fellow-Citizens:
It affords me an indescribable satisfaction to
be able to announce to you that on this the 41st
anniversary of the martyrdom of the founder and
greatest exponent of Philippine nationalism, I had
the privilege of issuing, in pursuance of the
mandate of the Constitution and of existing law, an
Executive Order designating one of the native
languages as the basis for the national language
of the Filipino people.
For over three hundred years that Spain exercised
sovereignty over the Spanish was the official language;
nevertheless, when the United States took possession and
control of these Islands, Spanish had not become the
common language of our people. With the establishment of
the American régime, English became the official language of
our country; but despite the fact that English has been taught
in all our public schools for more than a generation, it has not
become the language of our people. Today there is not one
language that is spoken and understood by all the Filipinos,
nor even by a majority of them, which simply proves that while
the teaching of a foreign language may be imposed upon a
people, it can never replace the native tongue as a medium of
national expression among the common masses. This is
because, as Rizal asserted, the national thought takes its
roots in a common language which develops and grows with
the progress of the nation. We may borrow for a time the
language of other peoples, but we cannot truly possess a
national language except through the adoption, development
and use of one of our own.
There was a time when it seemed that it would be
impossible for the Filipinos to agree that one of the native
languages be chosen as the national language, but at last
we have all realized that if we are willing to accept a foreign
language as the official language of the Philippines, with more
reason we should accept one of our own languages as the
national language of our common country. Without giving
undue importance to the role that a common language plays
in the life of a people, we may point to the fact that in the
Orient the one nation which has made the greatest progress
and which has won a high place in the family of nations, is the
only nation that has one common language—Japan. And
every other nation which has attained the highest state of
culture, solidarity and power, both on the American continent
and in Europe, and even in Africa, is a nation that possesses
a common national language.
Today, with the adoption of Tagalog as the basis for
the national language of the Philippines, we have
accomplished one of the most cherished dreams of Rizal.
In no better way could we have honored his sacred
memory on this anniversary of his immolation to the cause of
our free nationhood.
I wish you all a Happy New Year
