C-SPAN is carrying the House in session live right now. I think the main C-SPAN channel joins the Obama statement live. http://www.c-span.org/live/

Meanwhile C-SPAN online has a White House press room feed: http://www.c-span.org/video/?320073-3/president-obama-remarks-iraq

Question: Do you regret not leaving behind a residual force?

Obama: It wasn't our choice. It was the choice of the Iraqi government that we could not leave a residual force, you fucking asshat.


OK. I added that last part. But seriously, who so-called journalist didn't know this?
