"Ägypter haben uns inspiriert, und sie haben so, indem sie die Lüge auf die Idee, dass die Gerechtigkeit am besten durch Gewalt gewonnen getan."

In der Hoffnung, dass Ferment verbreitet sich auf den Iran?
Im Anschluss an Obama, verurteilt Sprecher des Weißen Hauses, Robert Gibbs, der iranischen Regierung für nicht so sein Volk zu Dissens und Nachfrage Demokratie Stimme.

"Ich denke, wenn die Regierung des Iran war so zuversichtlich wie sie glauben machen wollen in den Aussagen, dass sie löschte, würden sie nichts mit den friedlichen Demonstrationen wie diejenigen, die Sie in Kairo und in Ägypten gesehen habe Angst zu haben. Sie sind nicht davon überzeugt, dass, sie haben Angst. Deshalb habe sie sich bedroht niemanden, dass dies zu tun versucht zu töten ... . "
Speaking in Kentucky Freitag ein paar Stunden vor Obama seine Äußerungen im Weißen Haus gemacht, Vizepräsident Joe Biden verwies auch auf den Iran, sagte: "Was steht auf dem Spiel in Ägypten und im Nahen Osten ist nicht nur über Ägypten allein."
Er sagte, es sei Zeit für die iranischen Führer lassen ihre Leute frei äußern dürfen. "Ich sage meinen iranischen Freunden: Lassen Sie Ihre Leute marschieren, laß dein Volk zu sprechen ... es ist eine bankrotte System."
Höhepunkt Wochen protestieren
Die Ankündigung Freitag durch Vizepräsident Omar Suleiman, dass Mubarak war Zedenten Macht war der Höhepunkt zu Protesten und die Bemühungen von US-Beamten zu überzeugen Mubarak in den Ruhestand und damit sein Land in Richtung einer echten Demokratie entwickeln.
Ein führender Republikaner, Senator Lindsey Graham, RS.C., sagte: "In den vergangenen 30 Jahren haben wir amerikanischen Steuer-Dollar ausgegeben, um die Beziehungen zwischen den Vereinigten Staaten und ägyptische Militär aufzubauen. Diese lange Beziehung Bohrung zumindest ein gewisses Maß von Obst während Die jüngste Krise, als der ägyptische Militär treu geblieben, die Menschen in Ägypten -. nicht dessen Herrscher "

Wie Biden verwies Kerry zu möglichen Auswirkungen auf andere Regierungen. "Was passiert als nächstes wird Auswirkungen weit über die Grenzen Ägyptens zu haben", sagte er.

Bei den Wahlen 2006 in Gaza, gewann die radikal-islamische Bewegung Hamas, die Bindung an das iranische Regime hat eine Mehrheit im palästinensischen Parlament. Das war eine erstaunliche und unwillkommene Ergebnis für den amerikanischen und israelischen Regierungen, die designierte Hamas als terroristische Organisation.
House Vorsitzende des Außenpolitischen Ausschusses Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla. Rief am Freitag für international anerkannte Wahlen und sagte: "Die ägyptische Militär kann weiterhin eine konstruktive Rolle bei der Bereitstellung für Sicherheit und Stabilität in dieser Umgestaltung Zeitraum zu spielen."

"
Drei Jahrzehnte in der Nähe US-Ägypten militärischen Beziehungen
In den vergangenen drei Jahrzehnten haben sich US-Militärs enge Beziehungen mit der ägyptischen Militärs, mit ägyptischer Offiziere Studium an US-Colleges und Mitarbeiter gemeinsame amerikanisch-ägyptischen militärischen Übungen und strategische Planung aufgebaut.
Der Übergang zu militärischer Herrschaft macht die Vertrautheit der US-Offiziere mit ihren ägyptischen Amtskollegen wie General Sami Anan, Stabschef der Streitkräfte, umso wichtiger - wie Admiral Mike Mullen, der Vorsitzende der Joint Chiefs of Staff erwies Donnerstag Nacht.
Pentagon sagte NBC News, dass Mullen, genannt Enan Donnerstagabend nach Mubaraks Überraschung nicht Resignation Rede. Die Beamten würden nicht kennzeichnen die Diskussion.
Verteidigungsminister Robert Gates auch als Feldmarschall Tantawi.
Obama und seine Berater waren gezwungen, eine kurzfristige Reaktion improvisieren Donnerstag nach Mubaraks Nicht-Rücktritt Rede verließen viele ratlos.
Ändern Sie in Obamas Ton

CIA-Chef Leon Panetta deutete in einem Haus Anhörung am Donnerstag, dass Mubarak Abfahrt war nur eine Frage von Stunden.
Auf eine Frage von House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Michigan, Panetta sagte: "Ich habe das gleiche Informationen, die Sie getan haben. Dass es eine hohe Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass Mubarak kann step down diesem Abend, die erheblich sein würde im Hinblick auf denen die hoffentlich geordneten Übergang in Ägypten stattfindet. "
Aber Panetta erklärte auch der Ausschuss die Schwierigkeiten CIA-Analysten bei dem Versuch, vorherzusagen, wann ein Despot Willenskraft abtreten.
"Unser größtes Problem ist immer, wie gehen wir in den Kopf von jemandem bekommen? Wir versuchen, in den Kopf von Kim in Nordkorea bekommen. Wir versuchen, in den Kopf des obersten Führers im Iran zu bekommen. Wenn es um die (ehemaligen tunesischen Führer Zine el-Abidine) Ben Ali kam, glaube ich, alle davon ausgegangen, den Diktator ... wollte im Grunde vernichten jede Art von Demonstration. Ich glaube nicht, dass er selbst wusste, dass er in die Hölle aus der Stadt zu bekommen, bis er in einem Flugzeug zu springen und lassen entschieden. "
Aber Panetta behauptete "Ehrlich gesagt, wegen dem, was passiert in Tunesien", wo Ben Ali war aus der Macht gezwungen letzten Monat, "wir waren in einem besseren Ort, um zu schauen und Ägypten, was in Ägypten passiert."

Obama dit l'Egypte ne sera jamais la même.

ATH-M50

Après plus de deux semaines de manifestations contre le régime en Egypte qui ont parfois pris les États-Unis hors d'équilibre, le président Obama a salué vendredi la démission du président Hosni Moubarak, en disant «le peuple de l'Egypte ont pris la parole, leurs voix ont été entendues, et l'Egypte ne sera jamais la même. "
sortie de Moubarak est venu comme de bonnes nouvelles après plusieurs jours d'incertitude. L'événement que les responsables de l'administration Obama et avait espéré n'a finalement arriver vendredi, un jour plus tard que certains l'avaient prévu.
Obama a déclaré vendredi "ce n'est pas la fin de la transition de l'Égypte - c'est le début. Je suis sûr qu'il y aura des jours difficiles à venir et de nombreuses questions restent sans réponse. "
Mais il a ajouté qu'il avait confiance que le peuple égyptien ", on trouve les réponses et faire de manière pacifique."
Il a comparé le changement de pouvoir au Caire à la chute du mur de Berlin et cité la déclaration de Martin Luther King que «il ya quelque chose dans l'âme qui crie pour la liberté."

Obama fait l'éloge de l'armée égyptienne, qui lui, a "servi patriotique et responsable" en tant que gardien, mais «devra assurer une transition qui soit crédible aux yeux du peuple égyptien." Il a dit que doit comprendre la levée de l'urgence et la loi " portant sur une voie claire vers des élections qui soient libres et équitables. "

«Les Égyptiens nous ont inspirés, et ils ont fait en mettant le mensonge à l'idée que la justice est mieux acquise par la violence."
"Pour l'Egypte, il a été la force morale de la non-violence, le terrorisme n'est pas, ne tue pas aveugle, mais la non-violence, la force morale, qui pliait l'arc de l'histoire vers la justice une fois de plus."
En espérant que ce ferment se propage à l'Iran?
Prenant la parole après M. Obama, porte-parole de la Maison Blanche Robert Gibbs a condamné le gouvernement iranien de ne pas permettre aux gens d'exprimer sa dissidence et la démocratie demande.
"Il est tout à fait un contraste entre la façon dont le gouvernement de l'Egypte et le peuple de l'Egypte sont en interaction, et le gouvernement de l'Iran menace son peuple très propre», a dit M. Gibbs.
"Je pense que si le gouvernement d'Iran a été aussi confiants qu'ils voudraient vous faire croire dans les déclarations qu'ils ont mis hors, ils n'auraient rien à craindre avec des manifestations pacifiques comme celles que vous avez vu au Caire et dans toute l'Egypte. Ils ne sont pas convaincus que, ils ont peur. C'est pourquoi ils ont menacé de tuer quiconque tente de le faire ... . "
S'exprimant dans le Kentucky vendredi quelques heures avant Obama fait ses remarques à la Maison Blanche, le vice-président Joe Biden a également fait référence à l'Iran, en disant: «Qu'est-ce qui est en jeu en Egypte et au Moyen-Orient n'est pas seulement l'Egypte."
Il a dit qu'il était temps pour les dirigeants iraniens à laisser leur peuple s'exprimer librement. "Je dis à mes amis iraniens: laissez votre peuple mars, laissez vos gens parlent ... c'est un système en faillite."
Climax à quelques semaines de protestation
L'annonce vendredi par le vice-président Omar Suleiman, que Moubarak a céder le pouvoir a été le point culminant des protestations de rue et les efforts déployés par les autorités américaines pour persuader Moubarak à la retraite et permettre à son pays à évoluer vers une véritable démocratie.
Un leader républicain, le sénateur Lindsey Graham, RS.C., a déclaré: "Au cours des 30 dernières années, nous avons passé l'argent des contribuables américains à établir des relations entre les États-Unis et militaire égyptienne. Cette relation de longue alésage au moins une certaine mesure, des fruits au cours la récente crise lorsque l'armée égyptienne est resté loyal envers le peuple de l'Egypte -. n'est pas son chef "
Mais le changement de pouvoir au Caire a soulevé des questions sur les effets à long terme d'un nouveau régime sur les intérêts stratégiques américains au Moyen-Orient.

Kerry met en garde contre Gaza précédent
Affaires étrangères du Sénat président de la commission le sénateur John Kerry, D-Mass, a déclaré vendredi que les nouveaux dirigeants de l'Egypte "doit répondre à l'appel de lever l'état d'urgence et de préciser un calendrier pour établir les fondements pour des élections crédibles."
Comme Biden, Kerry a souligné les effets potentiels sur d'autres gouvernements. "Qu'est-ce qui se passe ensuite aura des répercussions bien au-delà des frontières de l'Egypte, dit-il. «Nous savons d'expérience récente dans la bande de Gaza que cela nécessite non seulement des élections, mais travailler dur pour construire un gouvernement transparent, responsable et largement représentatif."

Dans les élections de 2006 dans la bande de Gaza, le Hamas mouvement radical islamique, qui a des liens avec le régime iranien, a remporté la majorité au Parlement palestinien.

Maison commission des affaires étrangères Président Rep Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., A appelé vendredi à des élections reconnues internationalement et a déclaré: «l'armée égyptienne ne peut continuer à jouer un rôle constructif dans la fourniture pour la sécurité et la stabilité au cours de cette période de transformation."
Elle a dit que l'administration Obama doit «exhorter le rejet sans équivoque de toute participation par les Frères musulmans et d'autres extrémistes qui peuvent chercher à exploiter et à les détourner de ces événements pour gagner en puissance, d'opprimer le peuple égyptien, et très dommageable pour les relations de l'Egypte avec les Etats-Unis , Israël, et d'autres nations libres. "
Trois décennies de relations des États-Unis et l'Égypte étroite des militaires
Au cours des trois dernières décennies, les officiers militaires américains ont établi des relations étroites avec l'armée égyptienne, avec des officiers égyptiens étudient dans les collèges du personnel américain et américano-égyptien des exercices militaires et la planification stratégique.
Le passage à un régime militaire fait la connaissance des agents des États-Unis avec leurs homologues égyptiens tels que le général Sami Annan, chef d'état major des forces armées, d'autant plus important - comme l'amiral Mike Mullen, le président du Joint Chiefs of Staff prouvé jeudi la nuit.
Les responsables du Pentagone a dit que NBC Nouvelles Mullen, a appelé jeudi soir après Enan Moubarak surprise non-démission de la parole. Les fonctionnaires ne qualifierais pas la discussion.

Obama et ses conseillers avaient été forcés d'improviser une réponse à court terme jeudi après le discours de Moubarak non-démission laissé de nombreux perplexe.
Changement de ton d'Obama
ton d'Obama a été moins optimiste jeudi soir qu'il ne l'avait été plus tôt dans la journée, quand il avait déclaré qu'il était «absolument clair» que «nous assistons à l'histoire."
En revanche, la déclaration d'Obama jeudi soir a été morose sur le papier et non pas devant les caméras de télévision.
"Trop Egyptiens ne sont pas convaincus que le gouvernement est sérieux sur une véritable transition vers la démocratie, et c'est la responsabilité du gouvernement à s'exprimer clairement au peuple égyptien et le monde», la déclaration d'Obama a déclaré jeudi soir.

Obama says 'Egypt will never be the same'

ATH-M50

After more than two weeks of anti-regime protests in Egypt that had sometimes caught the United States off balance, President Obama Friday hailed the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak, saying "the people of Egypt have spoken, their voices have been heard, and Egypt will never be the same.”

Mubarak's exit came as welcome news after days of uncertainty. The event that Obama and administration officials had been hoping for did finally happen Friday, a day later than some had expected.

Obama said Friday “this is not the end of Egypt’s transition — it’s the beginning. I’m sure there will be difficult days ahead and many questions remain unanswered.”

But he added he had confidence that the Egyptian people “can find the answers and do so peacefully.”

He compared the change of power in Cairo to the fall of the Berlin Wall and quoted Martin Luther King’s statement that “there’s something in the soul that cries out for freedom.”

    4. What you need to know about the crisis in Egypt
    5. Timeline: Follow the path of Mideast upheaval

Obama praised the Egyptian military, which he said had “served patriotically and responsibly” as a caretaker but “will have to ensure a transition that is credible in the eyes of the Egyptian people.” He said that must include lifting the emergency law and “laying out a clear path to elections that are fair and free.”

The president lavished most of his praise on the demonstrators in the streets of Cairo.

"Egyptians have inspired us, and they've done so by putting the lie to the idea that justice is best gained by violence."

"For Egypt, it was the moral force of nonviolence, not terrorism, not mindless killing, but nonviolence, moral force, that bent the arc of history toward justice once more."

Hoping that ferment spreads to Iran?
Speaking after Obama, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs condemned the Iranian government for not allowing its people to voice dissent and demand democracy.

“There is quite a contrast between the way the government of Egypt and the people of Egypt are interacting, and the government of Iran is threatening its very own people,” Gibbs said.  

“I think if the government of Iran was as confident as they would have you believe in the statements that they put out, they would have nothing to fear with the peaceful demonstrations like those you’ve seen in Cairo and throughout Egypt. They’re not that confident; they’re scared. That’s why they’ve threatened to kill anybody that tries to do this ... .”

Speaking in Kentucky Friday a few hours before Obama made his remarks at the White House, Vice President Joe Biden also made pointed reference to Iran, saying, "What is at stake in Egypt and across the Middle East is not just about Egypt alone."

He said it was time for Iranian leaders to let their people speak out freely. "I say to my Iranian friends: let your people march, let your people speak ... it's a bankrupt system."

Climax to weeks of protest
The announcement Friday by Vice President Omar Suleiman that Mubarak was ceding power was the climax to street protests and efforts by U.S. officials to persuade Mubarak to retire and allow his country to evolve toward a genuine democracy.

A leading Republican, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said, "For the past 30 years we have spent American tax dollars to build relationships between the United States and Egyptian military.  This long relationship bore at least some measure of fruit during the recent crisis when the Egyptian military remained loyal to the people of Egypt — not its ruler."

But the change of power in Cairo raised questions about the long-term effects of a new regime on American strategic interests in the Middle East.

Kerry warns of Gaza precedent
Senate Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass, said Friday that Egypt’s new leaders “must heed the call to lift the emergency law and clarify a timetable to establish a proper foundation for credible elections.”

Like Biden, Kerry pointed to potential effects on other governments. “What happens next will have repercussions far beyond Egypt’s borders,” he said. “We know from recent experience in Gaza that this requires not just elections, but hard work to build a government that is transparent, accountable, and broadly representative.”

In the 2006 elections in Gaza, the radical Islamic movement Hamas, which has ties to the Iranian regime, won a majority in the Palestinian parliament. That came as a stunning and unwelcome outcome for the U.S. and Israeli governments, who designate Hamas as a terrorist organization.

House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., called Friday for internationally-recognized elections and said “the Egyptian military can continue to play a constructive role in providing for security and stability during this transformational period.”

She said the Obama administration must “urge the unequivocal rejection of any involvement by the Muslim Brotherhood and other extremists who may seek to exploit and hijack these events to gain power, oppress the Egyptian people, and do great harm to Egypt’s relationship with the United States, Israel, and other free nations.”

Three decades of close U.S.-Egypt military ties
Over the past three decades, U.S. military officers have built close relationships with the Egyptian military, with Egyptian officers studying at U.S. staff colleges and joint U.S.-Egyptian military exercises and strategic planning.

The shift to military rule makes the familiarity of U.S. officers with their Egyptian counterparts such as Gen. Sami Anan, chief of staff of the armed forces, all the more important — as Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff proved Thursday night.

Pentagon officials told NBC News that Mullen, called Enan Thursday night after Mubarak's surprise non-resignation speech. The officials would not characterize the discussion.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates also called Field Marshall Tantawi.

Obama and his aides had been forced to improvise a short-term response Thursday after Mubarak’s non-resignation speech left many stumped.

Change in Obama's tone
Obama's tone was less sanguine Thursday night than it had been earlier in the day, when he’d declared that it was “absolutely clear” that “we are witnessing history.”

In contrast, Obama's glum Thursday night statement was on paper and not in front of TV cameras.

"Too many Egyptians remain unconvinced that the government is serious about a genuine transition to democracy, and it is the responsibility of the government to speak clearly to the Egyptian people and the world," Obama’s statement said Thursday night.

Many observers had expected Mubarak, who had ruled Egypt since 1981, to step down on Thursday.

CIA chief Leon Panetta hinted in a House hearing Thursday that Mubarak’s departure was only a matter of hours.

Responding to a question from House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Mike Rogers, R- Mich., Panetta said, “I got the same information you did. That there is a strong likelihood that Mubarak may step down this evening, which would be significant in terms of where the hopefully orderly transition in Egypt takes place.”

But Panetta also explained to the committee the difficulties facing CIA analysts in trying to predict when a despot will cede power.

“Our biggest problem is always, how do we get into the head of somebody? We're trying to get into the head of Kim in North Korea. We're trying to get into the head of the supreme leader in Iran. When it came to (former Tunisian leader Zine el-Abidine) Ben Ali, I think everybody assumed the dictator... was going to basically crush any kind of demonstration. I don't think he even knew he was going to get the hell out of town until he decided to jump on a plane and leave.”

But Panetta claimed “frankly, because of what happened in Tunisia” where Ben Ali was forced out of power last month, “we were in a better place to look at Egypt and what was happening in Egypt.”

At Gathering, Ron Paul Is No. 1 for 2012

ATH-M50.

WASHINGTON — With the Republican presidential campaign poised to open, conservative activists signaled on Saturday that they were unsettled over who should win the party’s nomination, indicating a wide-open race for the right to challenge President Obama.

The Caucus

The latest on President Obama, the new Congress and other news from Washington and around the nation. Join the discussion.

For three days, prospective Republican presidential contenders delivered speeches at the Conservative Political Action Conference here, introducing themselves to influential figures who will help choose the nominee. The results of a straw poll on Saturday underscored the fluidity of the field.

Representative Ron Paul of Texas won the poll for the second year in a row, and Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, took second place. The results reflected the challenges that lie ahead for Republicans as they weigh arguments of electability and ideology and try to unite the party.

Mr. Paul received 30 percent of the vote, and Mr. Romney won 23 percent. The rest of the potential contenders finished in single digits, including Sarah Palin, who declined an invitation to speak here; she received support from only 3 percent of the poll’s voters.

Organizers said that more than 10,000 people from across the country attended the conference, but only 3,742 of them participated in the straw poll, the results of which offer little indication of which candidate will emerge to take on the president. The tepid showing of many of the candidates underscored the problems they face as they seek to introduce themselves to Republican primary voters. The conference is intended to allow candidates to test the themes of their prospective candidacies.

The people who attend the conference, which has been meeting in Washington for nearly four decades, are not representative of Republican primary voters. But nearly a dozen potential candidates still delivered speeches in hopes of building support.

Many of the potential contenders who are expected to announce their candidacy in the coming weeks fared poorly in the straw poll, including Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker, who received 5 percent, and Tim Pawlenty, the former governor of Minnesota, who got 4 percent.

Ms. Palin has not announced her intentions, but her supporters confirmed on Saturday that she had hired a veteran Republican adviser to run her political action committee and try to bring order to her political operation.

The adviser, Michael Glassner, who first worked with Ms. Palin during her 2008 vice-presidential campaign, will become Ms. Palin’s top political aide.

“We are very grateful that he is bringing his expertise to our enterprise,” Tim Crawford, the treasurer of SarahPAC, said.

Ms. Palin has long operated with a shoestring staff, with much of her political decisions made with her husband, Todd. Her political action committee already has several employees, but the line of authority inside the operation has been unclear to Republicans who have tried to reach out to Ms. Palin.

Mr. Glassner, who worked for the 1996 Republican presidential campaign of former Senator Robert Dole of Kansas, was hired to organize Ms. Palin’s political ventures. But the decision to bring him aboard is not necessarily a sign that she is moving closer to a presidential run, according to two Republicans who support Ms. Palin, but an indication that she is trying to get organized as she decides her future.

Lawsuit Over Video

Andrew Breitbart, the owner of several conservative Web sites, was served at the conference on Saturday with a lawsuit filed by Shirley Sherrod, the former Agriculture Department employee who lost her job last year over a video that Mr. Brietbart posted at his site biggovernment.com.

The video was selectively edited so that it appeared Ms. Sherrod was confessing she had discriminated against a farmer because he was white. In the suit, which was filed in Washington on Friday, Ms. Sherrod says the video has damaged her reputation and prevented her from continuing her work.

Mr. Breitbart said in a statement that he “categorically rejects the transparent effort to chill his constitutionally protected free speech.” SARAH WHEATON

Obama’s budget seeks deep cuts in domestic spending

ATH-M50.

WASHINGTON — President Obama, who is proposing his third annual budget on Monday, will say that it can reduce projected deficits by $1.1 trillion over the next decade, enough to stabilize the nation’s fiscal health and buy time to address its longer-term problems, according to a senior administration official.

Two-thirds of the reductions that Mr. Obama will claim are from cuts in spending, including in many domestic programs that he supports. Among the reductions for just the next fiscal year, 2012, which starts Oct. 1, are more than $1 billion from airport grants and nearly $1 billion from grants to states for water treatment plants and similar projects. Public health and forestry programs would also be cut.

Home energy assistance to low-income families and community service block grants would be cut in half, and an initiative to restore the Great Lakes’ environmental health would be reduced by one-quarter.

The administration readily concedes, even boasts, that the president will not win any race to outcut Republicans. In the House, Republicans are trying to slash up to $100 billion in the current fiscal year alone before they begin writing their own proposed budget for 2012 and beyond.

But the administration contends that its plan would leave the country in better overall fiscal health than the path Republicans envision. Even as they seek to downsize domestic programs, they would exempt the Pentagon from budget reductions, make permanent all the Bush-era tax cuts that are to expire at the end of 2012 and repeal cost-saving provisions of the health care law.

Extending Bush tax cuts — for some
Mr. Obama would also extend the Bush tax cuts, but not for people whose taxable income is more than $250,000 a year. His budget does not count that proposed change as a savings; in fact, the huge revenue loss from extending the tax cuts for all income below that amount is included in his deficit projections for the remainder of the decade.

By 2015, the senior administration official said, Mr. Obama’s budget would show a deficit of just over 3 percent of the gross domestic product, down from three times that level, and at roughly the point that economists consider stable; it would hover around that point through 2021. But beyond 2021, an aging population and rising health care costs are forecast to drive annual deficits higher again.

With Republicans in charge of the House, Mr. Obama’s budget is more a statement of his priorities and philosophy than an actual template for federal spending and tax policy. Long-term budget projections — and especially deficit forecasts — are frequently unreliable because they are subject to so many political and economic variables. The point of Mr. Obama’s forecast is less to promise a specific result than to signal to voters and financial markets that he is serious about reducing annual deficits.

Mr. Obama’s budget will also serve as his frame for the debate with Republicans over the highly political act of writing next year’s budget — even as he tests Republicans’ willingness to compromise on the more divisive solutions to the nation’s long-range imbalances. “This is the opening bid in a long process,” said Senator Richard J. Durbin, Democrat of Illinois and the second-ranking Senate leader.

Previewing his budget message, Mr. Obama has argued for weeks that cuts deeper than he is seeking could threaten the fragile economic recovery and that America’s future growth and competitiveness demand increases in programs for education, infrastructure, innovation and research.

Ignoring bigger problems
Mr. Obama would reduce military spending and some health program costs, but neither party is tackling the unsustainable long-term growth of entitlement programs like Medicare or proposing to raise revenues significantly to close the budget gap.

“This is a budget that’s at that pivot point where we’re saying we now have to move from making sure the recovery takes hold, while being careful not to undermine it, to start to move in the direction of putting policies in place that deal with the deficit,” said the administration official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to preview budget details, “because if we don’t deal with the deficit, it becomes the potential next substantial economic challenge.”

The $1.1 trillion in total deficit reduction that the administration will claim through the 2021 fiscal year is measured from spending levels enacted by Congress and the president for the 2010 fiscal year. Comparisons of the impact of Mr. Obama’s new budget and House Republicans’ proposals on deficits and the size of government are difficult to make until both budgets are available.

House Republicans will begin work on a 2012 budget after they finish trying to shrink current spending. But their proposed $100 billion cut for this fiscal year, already four months old, would translate over a decade into more than $1 trillion in deficit reductions, budget analysts say.

Yet even if House Republicans can resolve internal fights over the cuts and pass them, such reductions will not survive opposition from Mr. Obama and the Democratic-controlled Senate. The Republicans’ zeal for spending cuts, however, suggests that Mr. Obama ultimately could be forced to accept bigger reductions in overall nonsecurity spending than he now supports.

Freeze would only cover tenth of spending
The president has proposed a five-year freeze of such spending, through 2015, which the administration estimates would save $400 billion in the next 10 years.

Decades of budget history would suggest, however, that neither party can sustain the levels of cuts they are proposing for nonsecurity discretionary spending, which while just over a tenth of the federal budget covers most government programs, like air traffic control, national parks and cancer research.

Typically, such spending has grown faster than inflation, but not nearly as fast as that for much bigger items whose costs are driving projections of a dangerously mounting debt — the military, the entitlement programs Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, and interest on that debt.

While the Pentagon would not be subject to his freeze, Mr. Obama proposes reducing its previous spending plans by $78 billion over five years and cutting several weapons programs, including a Joint Strike Fighter engine and Marine expeditionary vehicle.

Together with “a pretty big reduction” in war costs from troop withdrawals in Iraq, the overall military budget would be smaller in real terms than it currently is, the administration official said. “We’re going from an environment where, if something was for defense, it was outside of normal budgetary discipline,” the official said, “and we’re saying that can’t be anymore.”

Mr. Obama’s budget assumes new revenues, mostly from tax changes he has already proposed that would affect multinational corporations and upper-income individuals, and savings from reduced interest payments on what he calculates as a lower federal debt.

Battle over alternative minimum tax
The president will also challenge Congress to offset the high costs of two actions repeatedly approved by lawmakers and presidents — one prevents the alternative minimum tax from annually hitting many middle-class households rather than only the affluent taxpayers it was intended for, and the other blocks a law that would slash payments to doctors who treat Medicare patients. In past years, the costs of those remedies have often simply been added to deficits.

To pay for adjusting the alternative minimum tax for three years, through 2014, Mr. Obama again will propose a limit on the tax deductions that people in the top brackets can claim. Congress has rejected that idea, which would raise roughly $300 billion over 10 years.

To offset the cost of protecting physicians’ reimbursements for two years, he will propose $62 billion in savings through changes that squeeze Medicare and Medicaid payments to hospitals and doctors and expand the use of generic drugs in federal health programs.

The budget confirms that Mr. Obama is not taking the lead in embracing the kind of far-reaching deficit-reduction plan recommended in December by a bipartisan majority of his fiscal commission. It proposed saving $4 trillion over a decade through specific cuts in spending for domestic, military and entitlement programs and new revenues from overhauling the tax code.

Fitness guru Jack LaLanne, 96, dies at Calif. home

 MDRV6 MDR-V6 MDR-7506 

LOS ANGELES — Jack LaLanne, the fitness guru who inspired television viewers to trim down, eat well and pump iron for decades before diet and exercise became a national obsession, died Sunday. He was 96.

LaLanne died of respiratory failure due to pneumonia Sunday afternoon at his home in Morro Bay on California's central coast, his longtime agent Rick Hersh said.

LaLanne ate healthy and exercised every day of his life up until the end, Hersh said.

"I have not only lost my husband and a great American icon, but the best friend and most loving partner anyone could ever hope for," Elaine LaLanne, LaLanne's wife of 51 years and a frequent partner in his television appearances, said in a written statement.

He maintained a youthful physique and joked in 2006 that "I can't afford to die. It would wreck my image."

Former "Price is Right" host Bob Barker credited LaLanne's encouragement with helping him to start exercising often.

"He never lost enthusiasm for life and physical fitness," the 87-year-old Barker told The Associated Press on Sunday. "I saw him in about 2007 and he still looked remarkably good. He still looked like the same enthusiastic guy that he always was."

Television staple
LaLanne (pronounced lah-LAYN') credited a sudden interest in fitness with transforming his life as a teen, and he worked tirelessly over the next eight decades to transform others' lives, too.

"The only way you can hurt the body is not use it," LaLanne said. "Inactivity is the killer and, remember, it's never too late."

Photoblog: LaLanne in 1953

His workout show was a television staple from the 1950s to the '70s. LaLanne and his dog Happy encouraged kids to wake their mothers and drag them in front of the television set. He developed exercises that used no special equipment, just a chair and a towel.

He also founded a chain of fitness studios that bore his name and in recent years touted the value of raw fruit and vegetables as he helped market a machine called Jack LaLanne's Power Juicer.

When he turned 43 in 1957, he performed more than 1,000 push-ups in 23 minutes on the "You Asked For It" television show. At 60, he swam from Alcatraz Island to Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco — handcuffed, shackled and towing a boat. Ten years later, he performed a similar feat in Long Beach harbor.

"I never think of my age, never," LaLanne said in 1990. "I could be 20 or 100. I never think about it, I'm just me. Look at Bob Hope, George Burns. They're more productive than they've ever been in their whole lives right now."

Praised by Schwarzenegger
Fellow bodybuilder and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger credited LaLanne with taking exercise out of the gymnasium and into living rooms.

"He laid the groundwork for others to have exercise programs, and now it has bloomed from that black and white program into a very colorful enterprise," Schwarzenegger said in 1990.

In 1936 in his native Oakland, LaLanne opened a health studio that included weight-training for women and athletes. Those were revolutionary notions at the time, because of the theory that weight training made an athlete slow and "muscle bound" and made a woman look masculine.

"You have to understand that it was absolutely forbidden in those days for athletes to use weights," he once said. "It just wasn't done. We had athletes who used to sneak into the studio to work out.

"It was the same with women. Back then, women weren't supposed to use weights. I guess I was a pioneer," LaLanne said.

The son of poor French immigrants, he was born in 1914 and grew up to become a sugar addict, he said.

The turning point occurred one night when he heard a lecture by pioneering nutritionist Paul Bragg, who advocated the benefits of brown rice, whole wheat and a vegetarian diet.

"He got me so enthused," LaLanne said. "After the lecture I went to his dressing room and spent an hour and a half with him. He said, 'Jack, you're a walking garbage can.'"

Soon after, LaLanne constructed a makeshift gym in his back yard. "I had all these firemen and police working out there and I kind of used them as guinea pigs," he said.

He said his own daily routine usually consisted of two hours of weightlifting and an hour in the swimming pool.

"It's a lifestyle, it's something you do the rest of your life," LaLanne said. "How long are you going to keep breathing? How long do you keep eating? You just do it."

In addition to his wife, he is survived by two sons, Dan and Jon, and a daughter, Yvonne.

    WASHINGTON - R. Sargent Shriver, le toujours optimiste Kennedy-frère qui a servi comme premier directeur Ameica Corps de la Paix et a conduit plus tard une agression national sur la pauvreté, a rappelé vendredi soir comme un idéaliste énergique qui a laissé un héritage de service public.
    «Sargent Shriver a été le plus aimable, plus gai, plus optimiste personne que j'ai connu en 50 ans de vie publique», a déclaré l'ancien sénateur du Dakota du Sud, George McGovern, le candidat démocrate à la présidentielle 1972, se référant à son colistier cette année. "Il est remarquable que ces vertus pourraient être combinés en une seule personne. Je ne me rappelle pas l'avoir vu dans les décharges. Il doit avoir eu des jours comme ça, mais personne ne les a jamais s'il le faisait."
    Des centaines rempli l'église catholique Holy Trinity à Washington pour présenter leurs hommages à une suite de Shriver, le beau-frère du président John Kennedy et le regretté Robert Sens et Edward Kennedy. Il est mort mardi dans un hôpital du Maryland à 95, huit ans après avoir annoncé qu'il avait la maladie d'Alzheimer.

    Certains de ceux qui ont assisté à la suite avait rencontré Shriver par son travail et d'autres ne le connaissais que par sa réputation.
    «Il était le plus bel homme que je crois que j'ai jamais rencontré dans ma vie», a déclaré Gene Theroux, 72, de Loudoun County, Virginie, qui a travaillé à l'Office de promotion économique où Shriver a servi comme directeur dans les années 1960. "Il était plein d'énergie positive."
    Publicité | AdChoicesAdvertise | AdChoicesAdvertise | AdChoices "Il a un travail ingrat à la demande du Président Johnson pour exécuter le programme de la pauvreté», a déclaré Theroux. Et si de nombreux programmes ont été impopulaires, Shriver a réussi à rassembler les gens pour les sortir de la terre, dit-il.
    Le déluge de louanges pour Shriver et le soutien à sa famille depuis sa mort, le mardi est extraordinaire parce qu'il n'avait pas été aux yeux du public pendant des années, a déclaré Bill Moyers, journaliste et ancien assistant de Johnson qui a écrit la préface de la biographie Shriver et a travaillé avec lui au Corps de la Paix.
