"special report". i was chuckling at that line, the president, you heard an audible chuckle from the audience assembled in the rose garden when he made that remark but there were some pretty sharp elbows, if i could say so, in this speech. he took on the speaker of the house directly. that doesn't often happen when it comes to presidential negotiations, does it bret? >> well jon, you have to look at this as the first salvo in the next negotiation over this supercommittee, this bipartisan committee that will be starting, that has already started, its back and forth over decifit reduction. the president is now calling for additional decifit reduction to pay for so- called his additional stimulus package, the $447 billion plan that he unveiled just last week. so yes, it was pointed, yes, it will have a lot of pushback in washington.
