President Obama told Congress, "Now is the time to act boldly."

...The young new president projected a voice of generational confidence to a public that by one measure is less confident than at any other time since Mr. Obama was in grade school.

President Obama delivered his first address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night. He urged the nation to use the economic crisis to raise its ambitions, calling for new efforts to address energy, health care and education issues even as he warned that more money might be needed to bail out banks and restore the economy.
