Quote of Obama's War on Terror

I am less interested in passing out blame than I am learning from and correcting these mistakes to make us safer. For ultimately, the buck stops with me. As president I have a solemn responsibility to protect this nation and our people. And when the system fails, it is my responsibility.

We are at war. We are at war against Al Qaeda. A far reaching network of violence and hatred that attacked us on 9/11, that killed nearly 3000 innocent people, and that is plotting to strike us again. And we will do whatever it takes to defeat them.

Responsibility is something this administration has lacked for a year. I hope this is the beginning of a change.
