...honor-bound to mention a few nice bits. There's a furious, well-orchestrated martial-arts battle between the kids (Brandon Soo Hoo and Leo Howard) who will grow up to be the opposing warriors Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes.

He did not mention that the price of getting enough Democrats on board with the legislation was significant compromises of his previous pledges. During the campaign, Obama had proposed auctioning off carbon permits (for companies that weren't yet sufficiently energy efficient) and using that money for other green programs.
