When Congress refuses to act, Joe and I are going to act,” Obama said on Tuesday, with Vice President Joe Biden at his side. “In the months to come, wherever we have an opportunity, we’re going to take steps on our own to keep this economy moving.”
Obama, speaking at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building near the White House, praised Congress for voting to extend the payroll tax cut. He said this helps the middle class, adding that he will fight for middle class voters regardless of what Congress does.

There are definitely a lot of people out there that have never got the memo that all people are one...regardless of color.
As for me and mine, we will stand and fight for your right to say what you want....
As long as you don't tread against the rights and freedoms of those who disagree and want to say so freely.
The southern Democrats that prove my point are Robert Byrd and George Wallace... Huey Long and the most Reverend Wright...
You know that guy that preached to Michelle and Barack on Sundays.. Past
All Good Democrats.. That represent who the Democrats are and were.
