Obama Singles Out McConnell

In Vegas fundraising speech at Bellagio Hotel, Pres. criticizes GOP leader for terming AJA "bailout" for teachers, first responders.

Obama: "Their leader, Mitch McConnell said that – and I’m going to make sure I quote this properly – saving jobs of teachers and firefighters was just, and I quote, a bailout. A bailout! These aren’t bad actors who somehow screwed up the economy. They didn’t act irresponsibly. These are the men and women who teach our children and patrol our streets and run into burning buildings and save people. They deserve our support."
