IBM all started doing times a recession tough economic times so someone's gotta think creative."

" It take action rather than while it's exactly right you know with Steve we always say if you do what she can -- have to do what you can't. We can't just sit back and Obama have hope today I'm gonna pray he would do everything you can you may be.
