AP: How do you plan to pay for this and what’s your dealbreaker?
Obama: hey dude right now we’re all paying for it - at this rate we won’t be able to afford to iPhones, cable tv, or to invade every tiny little country that pisses off
AP: oh no
Obama: yeah! so that’s 2/3 of the cost right there
AP: and the rest?
Obama: remove tax deductions but I don’t foreclose other options
AP: oh no don’t say foreclose
Obama: hey we could raise taxes on millionaires
White House Press corps: oh shit
Obama: or eliminate waste
White House Press corps: oh yeah much better
