WASHINGTON (July 4, 2009)--President Barack Obama blended his domestic efforts with the July Fourth holiday in his weekly radio and Internet address.
Mr. Obama said the "unyielding spirit" that's been present throughout our history is being called upon again.
He said the nation is facing challenges "on a scale unseen in our time" and he says the economy the nation itself are "endangered by festering problems we have kicked down the road for far too long."
Mr. Obama said among the top priorities are revamping the education system, overhauling health care, and making clean energy profitable.
The Republican response was by Arizona Republican John McCain, whose chose to talk about the political turmoil in Iran.
McCain says the U.S. has a moral obligation to publicly denounce the Iranian government, and support Iranians who feel cheated by their recent presidential election.

Obama has yet to fill up my gas tank OR pay my mortgage! I wonder how many other folks are having the same luck with this mutt?? Question being asked more and more: If Obama was TRYING to destroy this country…what would he be doing differently??? think about it!
Biden & Obama’s own party controlled the House & Senate for the past TWO years. You broke it, you fix it. Goes to show what an Ivy-League education is worth today.There is nothing like getting hit in the wallet to wake people up. Energy will spike, Inflation sets in, The Dollar loses value. Obama stayed in his Ivy Tower for too long, this is the real world, he will need more than his leftest Professor’s social engineering theories.When we hit double digit unemployment, Voting for the Kool Candidate…isn’t going to seem so very important or Kool.
making clean energy profitable? how does that work? profitable to who? the government? it sure won't be profitable to the middle class.. Have you looked through any of this cap and tax bill yet? What are you waiting for? if it is not going to raise energy costs why are there povisions in the bill to give more 'welfare' payments out to low income earners to make up the cost of this tax? those making no more than 150% of the poverty line, would get monthly cash payments from the government. it also contains an open-ended funding of Medicare and Social Security money to deal with job losses and lower tax revenues caused by Cap & Tax. so this is a job KILLER also. call your senators hourly...
