U.S. President Barack Obama hails the bipartisan cooperation at a press conference
President Barack Obama speaks at a press conference. He praises the bipartisan cooperation that resulted in what he calls the most productive post-election Congressional session in decades. He also comments on the passage of legislation on tax cuts, the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell, medical assistance for 9/11 responders, and the ratification of a new START treaty. Obama fields questions from reporters on prospects for more bi-partisan cooperation in the next year, the military’s ability to adapt to the repeal of DADT, the condition of the economy, the tax bill, the condition of the middle-class, immigration reform, and the status of the Guantanamo prison.
