Livestream: President Obama's press conference on debt limit and grand bargain

UPDATE: The president just noted that people on both sides of the aisle are trying to block this deal. Nice. The Democrats are just as bad as the Republicans. Nice. Also, the President just admitted that he's looking a "trimming benefits."

Sorry, we had originally embedded the White House's video stream of the President's press conference, but for reasons unexplainable to man, the White House insists on having their videos be "auto-on" - meaning, every time you visit our site you get the pleasure of listening to the President the second the page loads, whether you wish to or not. That's a bib no-no in Internet terms. So I've pulled the video and am linking to it instead.
