Good morning. I thought it might make sense to take some questions this week as my first term comes to an end. | 134.33963 | 26.215908 | 23.770756 | 32.966686 | quite fast | ɡʊd mɔɹnɪŋ. aɪ θɔt ɪt maɪt meɪk sɛns tu teɪk sʌm kwɛstʃʌnz ðɪs wik æz maɪ fɜ˞st tɜ˞m kʌmz tu æn ɛnd. | very noisy | very roomy sounding | quite monotone |

which would stabilize our debt and our deficit in a sustainable way for the next decade. That would be enough not only to stop the growth of our debt relative to the size of our economy, but to also to stop the growth of our economy. | 124.254868 | 20.427197 | 25.540508 | 59.129528 | very fast | wɪtʃ wʊd steɪbʌlaɪz aʊɜ˞ dɛt ʌnd aʊɜ˞ dɛfʌsʌt ɪn ʌ sʌsteɪnʌbʌl weɪ fɔɹ ðʌ nɛkst dɛkeɪd. ðæt wʊd bi ɪnʌf nɑt oʊnli tu stɑp ðʌ ɡɹoʊθ ʌv aʊɜ˞ dɛt ɹɛlʌtɪv tu ðʌ saɪz ʌv aʊɜ˞ ɪkɑnʌmi, bʌt tu ɔlsoʊ tu stɑp ðʌ ɡɹoʊθ ʌv aʊɜ˞ ɪkɑnʌmi. | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |

I've signed into law about $1.4 trillion in spending cuts.

Altogether, that adds up to a total of about $2.5 trillion in deficit reduction over the next two years. | 130.925568 | 25.634508 | 27.97821 | 59.641933 | slightly fast | ɔltʌɡɛðɜ˞, ðæt ædz ʌp tu ʌ toʊtʌl ʌv ʌbaʊt $. tɹɪljʌn ɪn dɛfʌsʌt ɹʌdʌkʃʌn oʊvɜ˞ ðʌ nɛkst tu jɪɹz. | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |

So we've got to do more both to stabilize our finances over the medium and long term, but also spur more growth in the short term. | 141.273438 | 24.866974 | 39.799583 | 34.600002 | quite fast | soʊ wi'vi ɡɑt tu du mɔɹ boʊθ tu steɪbʌlaɪz aʊɜ˞ fɪnænsɪz oʊvɜ˞ ðʌ midiʌm ʌnd lɔŋ tɜ˞m, bʌt ɔlsoʊ spɜ˞ mɔɹ ɡɹoʊθ ɪn ðʌ ʃɔɹt tɜ˞m. | quite noisy | very roomy sounding | quite monotone |
I've said I'm open to making modest adjustments to programs like Medicare to protect them for future generations.

Turns out the American people agree with me.

They don't think it's fair, for example, to ask a senior to pay more for his or her health care or a scientist to shut down life-saving research so that a multi-million dollar budget is not a problem. | 129.388763 | 22.49909 | 34.933491 | 41.022682 | very fast | ðeɪ dɑn'ti θɪŋk ɪt'ɛs fɛɹ, fɔɹ ɪɡzæmpʌl, tu æsk ʌ sinjɜ˞ tu peɪ mɔɹ fɔɹ hɪz ɔɹ hɜ˞ hɛlθ kɛɹ ɔɹ ʌ saɪʌntɪst tu ʃʌt daʊn laɪf-seɪvɪŋ ɹisɜ˞tʃ soʊ ðæt ʌ mʌlti-mɪljʌn dɑlɜ˞ bʌdʒɪt ɪz nɑt ʌ pɹɑblʌm. | quite noisy | slightly roomy sounding | quite monotone |

as I outlined in my opening statement, would be disastrous. So I understand the impulse to try to get around this in a simple way, but there's one way to get around this. | 125.477531 | 31.325626 | 31.926929 | 49.584511 | quite fast | æz aɪ aʊtlaɪnd ɪn maɪ oʊpʌnɪŋ steɪtmʌnt, wʊd bi dɪzæstɹʌs. soʊ aɪ ʌndɜ˞stænd ðʌ ɪmpʌls tu tɹaɪ tu ɡɛt ɜ˞aʊnd ðɪs ɪn ʌ sɪmpʌl weɪ, bʌt ðɛɹ'ɛs wʌn weɪ tu ɡɛt ɜ˞aʊnd ðɪs. | very noisy | slightly confined sounding | quite monotone |
There's one way to deal with it, and that is for Congress to authorize me to pay for those. | 118.382034 | 15.273663 | 43.107201 | 54.234226 | slightly slowly | ðɛɹ'ɛs wʌn weɪ tu dil wɪð ɪt, ʌnd ðæt ɪz fɔɹ kɑŋɡɹʌs tu ɔθɜ˞aɪz mi tu peɪ fɔɹ ðoʊz. | slightly noisy | quite confined sounding | very monotone |
items of spending that they have already authorized. And the notion that | 102.764839 | 26.704794 | 30.674953 | 53.058208 | slightly slowly | aɪtʌmz ʌv spɛndɪŋ ðæt ðeɪ hæv ɔlɹɛdi ɔθɜ˞aɪzd. ʌnd ðʌ noʊʃʌn ðæt | very noisy | quite confined sounding | quite monotone |
Republicans in the House or maybe some Republicans in the Senate would suggest that in order for us to | 107.902252 | 19.161224 | 38.679924 | 55.736706 | moderate speed | ɹɪpʌblɪkʌnz ɪn ðʌ haʊs ɔɹ meɪbi sʌm ɹɪpʌblɪkʌnz ɪn ðʌ sɛnʌt wʊd sʌdʒɛst ðæt ɪn ɔɹdɜ˞ fɔɹ ʌs tu | quite noisy | quite confined sounding | quite monotone |
get our way on our spending priorities that we would risk the full faith and credit of the United States, that I think is | 104.152931 | 31.020603 | 34.716221 | 59.51022 | moderate speed | ɡɛt aʊɜ˞ weɪ ɑn aʊɜ˞ spɛndɪŋ pɹaɪɔɹʌtiz ðæt wi wʊd ɹɪsk ðʌ fʊl feɪθ ʌnd kɹɛdʌt ʌv ðʌ junaɪtɪd steɪts, ðæt aɪ θɪŋk ɪz | quite noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
not what the founders intended. That's not how I think most Americans think our democracy should work. They've got a point of view.

They need to sit down and work out a compromise. Well, look, Chuck, there's a pretty straightforward way of doing this. | 120.124924 | 25.422626 | 25.854179 | 58.131111 | moderate speed | ðeɪ nid tu sɪt daʊn ʌnd wɜ˞k aʊt ʌ kɑmpɹʌmaɪz. wɛl, lʊk, tʃʌk, ðɛɹ'ɛs ʌ pɹɪti stɹeɪtfɔɹwɜ˞d weɪ ʌv duɪŋ ðɪs. | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
And that is to set the debt ceiling aside, we pay our bills, and then we have a vigorous debate about how we're going to do further deficit. | 121.148232 | 25.48707 | 24.313416 | 38.807545 | slightly fast | ʌnd ðæt ɪz tu sɛt ðʌ dɛt silɪŋ ʌsaɪd, wi peɪ aʊɜ˞ bɪlz, ʌnd ðɛn wi hæv ʌ vɪɡɜ˞ʌs dʌbeɪt ʌbaʊt haʊ wi'ɹeɪ ɡoʊɪŋ tu du fɜ˞ðɜ˞ dɛfʌsʌt. | very noisy | quite roomy sounding | quite monotone |
as a reduction in a balanced way. Keep in mind that what we've heard from some Republicans | 119.101036 | 33.272659 | 27.888632 | 57.668751 | moderate speed | æz ʌ ɹʌdʌkʃʌn ɪn ʌ bælʌnst weɪ. kip ɪn maɪnd ðæt wʌt wi'vi hɜ˞d fɹʌm sʌm ɹɪpʌblɪkʌnz | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
in both the House and the Senate is that they will only increase the debt ceiling by the amount of spending cuts that they're able to push through. | 115.189087 | 22.494812 | 31.970068 | 59.652615 | moderate speed | ɪn boʊθ ðʌ haʊs ʌnd ðʌ sɛnʌt ɪz ðæt ðeɪ wɪl oʊnli ɪnkɹis ðʌ dɛt silɪŋ baɪ ðʌ ʌmaʊnt ʌv spɛndɪŋ kʌts ðæt ðeɪ'ɹeɪ eɪbʌl tu pʊʃ θɹu. | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
say it takes another trillion or trillion-two to get us through one more year. | 110.813553 | 13.566448 | 30.709021 | 58.574806 | slightly slowly | seɪ ɪt teɪks ʌnʌðɜ˞ tɹɪljʌn ɔɹ tɹɪljʌn-tu tu ɡɛt ʌs θɹu wʌn mɔɹ jɪɹ. | very noisy | very confined sounding | very monotone |
they'd have to identify $2.5 trillion in cuts just to get the debt ceiling extended to next year. $2.5 trillion. That's what we're talking about. | 139.353149 | 32.671432 | 27.341705 | 56.751625 | slightly fast | ðeɪ'di hæv tu aɪdɛntʌfaɪ $. tɹɪljʌn ɪn kʌts dʒʌst tu ɡɛt ðʌ dɛt silɪŋ ɪkstɛndʌd tu nɛkst jɪɹ. $. tɹɪljʌn. ðæt'ɛs wʌt wi'ɹeɪ tɔkɪŋ ʌbaʊt. | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
And they can't even, Congress has not been able to identify 1.2 trillion dollars in cuts that they're happy with. Because these same Republicans say they don't want to cut defense. | 133.28688 | 37.821175 | 42.581837 | 59.648472 | quite fast | ʌnd ðeɪ kæn'ti ivɪn, kɑŋɡɹʌs hæz nɑt bɪn eɪbʌl tu aɪdɛntʌfaɪ . tɹɪljʌn dɑlɜ˞z ɪn kʌts ðæt ðeɪ'ɹeɪ hæpi wɪð. bɪkɔz ðiz seɪm ɹɪpʌblɪkʌnz seɪ ðeɪ dɑn'ti wɑnt tu kʌt dɪfɛns. | slightly noisy | very confined sounding | slightly monotone |
They claim that they don't want to gut Medicare or harm the vulnerable, but the truth of the matter is they don't want to cut Medicare or harm the vulnerable. | 120.691109 | 20.486389 | 42.536816 | 57.457916 | very fast | ðeɪ kleɪm ðæt ðeɪ dɑn'ti wɑnt tu ɡʌt mɛdʌkɛɹ ɔɹ hɑɹm ðʌ vʌlnɜ˞ʌbʌl, bʌt ðʌ tɹuθ ʌv ðʌ mætɜ˞ ɪz ðeɪ dɑn'ti wɑnt tu kʌt mɛdʌkɛɹ ɔɹ hɑɹm ðʌ vʌlnɜ˞ʌbʌl. | slightly noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
The problem of the matter is, is that you can't meet their own criteria without drastically cutting Medicare. | 145.421204 | 29.857754 | 33.871555 | 57.906582 | moderate speed | ðʌ pɹɑblʌm ʌv ðʌ mætɜ˞ ɪz, ɪz ðæt ju kæn'ti mit ðɛɹ oʊn kɹaɪtɪɹiʌ wɪθaʊt dɹæstɪkli kʌtɪŋ mɛdʌkɛɹ. | very noisy | very confined sounding | quite monotone |
for having an impact on Medicaid or affecting our defense spending. So the math just doesn't add up.
