Mr Obama's speech

" We will restore science to its rightful place..."

"What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath
them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long
no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is
too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find
jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified.
Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no,
programs will end. And those of us who manage the public's dollars will be
held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in
the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between
a people and their government."
