Remarks at the Congressional Picnic
June 8, 2010
Hello, everybody. Well, how's the food? We could not have a more beautiful day for this annual picnic, and we are just thrilled that all of you had a chance to get over. I know that folks were running a little bit late, many of you because of votes. But, you know, the fact of the matter is, is that we have had as tough a year and a half as America has seen in a couple of generations, and that's meant that Congress has had to do more on a whole range of issues.
Right now, obviously, we're looking at what's happening in the Gulf with deep concern, and that's going to put more additional pressure on Congress to work with States and the administration to help deal with this tragedy and this crisis.
It is important, though, given the incredible sacrifices that so many of you have made and frankly, from my perspective, just as important are the sacrifices that your family makes--you being away, you missing family events--that every once in a while, we have an opportunity to get together and for me to say thank you to you for your incredible devotion to the country, regardless of party, and for both Michelle and I to say to your families how grateful we are for your service, and hopefully, to have a little bit of time for fun and for fellowship and to remind ourselves of what's so important in life.
So I'm thrilled to see all the young people here who are here today. And we hope that you have a wonderful time.
Band, you guys are great as always. Chefs, I think people are all voting with their mouths around here. I suspect there's not going to be a lot of leftovers.
And on behalf of Michelle and myself, we hope that you enjoy the evening, and we are grateful to all of you for being here.
So thank you very much.
Note: The President spoke at 7:26 p.m. on the South Lawn at the White House.

449 - Remarks at the Congressional Picnic
June 15, 2011
Hello, everybody! Welcome to the White House. First of all, I take full responsibility for the weather. [Laughter] What a spectacular day for a congressional picnic. This is always one of the best events of the year for us, mainly because with all the work that we do with Members of Congress and their staffs, all too often, we don't get a chance to say thank you to the families.
And we understand that public service is tough on the families, in some ways tougher. You've got spouses who are away from home, moms or dads or grandpas or grandmas who don't get a chance to see you as often as they'd like. And so this is just one modest way for us to say to all of you, thank you for the enormous contributions you make to the country. We are thrilled with everything that you guys do each and every day to make this country stronger and more secure and more free.
It is good to see a lot of familiar faces here. I hope everybody's getting enough to eat. We don't want to make a long speech, but I do hope that the spirit of community that is so evident on a day like today, that this carries over each and every day. We've got Democrats here and Republicans here, and we all have differences on issues at any given moment, but the one thing that we have to remind ourselves every day is we're all Americans and we're all part of the American family.
So finally, the last point I'd make is we've got some servicemembers here who helped to not only play the banjo and make some wonderful music, but folks who serve each and every day. For all of those who serve our country in uniform, thank you so much and God bless you. We're all grateful to you. All right?
So you guys have fun. And I want you guys to eat until you can't eat any more. [Laughter] All right? And then tomorrow you can "Let's Move!" [Laughter] All right. Thank you very much, everybody. Appreciate it.
NOTE: The President spoke at 7:20 p.m. on the South Lawn at the White House. In his remarks, he referred to First Lady Michelle Obama's "Let's Move!" initiative.

520 - Remarks at the Congressional Picnic
June 27, 2012
The President. Hello, everybody!
Audience members. Hello!
The President. Now, you don't have to worry. I will not be singing. We have professionals for that. [Laughter] But on behalf of Michelle and myself, I just want to say welcome. We have a perfect day for a picnic. It is spectacular.
We want to thank, as usual, our outstanding Marine Band. They can play anything at any time. And we're so grateful for their service to our country. Obviously, that goes to all our men and women in uniform. And today is a great day for us to acknowledge everything they do to provide our liberty and way of life.
I want to say a special welcome not only to the Members of Congress, but most importantly to their families, because Michelle reminds me every day how difficult it is to be married to a politician—[laughter]—and the sacrifices that all of you make. The birthday parties that get missed or the soccer games that you're late to, the travel that keeps you away from your loved ones—all of that obviously is in service of our country, and you guys are serving alongside those of us who hold elective office. So we're thrilled that you have at least one day where you got a chance to be together in Washington and nobody is arguing.
So that also just reminds me that for all the political differences that are sometimes expressed in this town, we are first and foremost Americans, not Democrats or Republicans. And I think all of us want to make sure that during extraordinarily challenging times for this country that we constantly keep that in mind. That's what the people who sent us here are expecting. And I know that each of us in our own way are hopeful that, because of the work that we do here, we pass on something a little better and a little brighter to our kids and our grandkids.
And so, I'm looking forward to continuing to work with you. I'm glad I see some folks here in shorts and some Hawaiian shirts. And so everybody is dressed appropriately for a picnic. If you still have your tie on, take it off. [Laughter] Make sure to enjoy the barbecue; enjoy the music. And——
The First Lady. Go see the garden.
The President. Go see the garden if you want.
And we are going to be coming down on this rope line, and I want to be able to shake everybody's hands. I warn you in advance that because the line is long, it's going to be hard for us to pose for individual pictures for everybody. The exceptions that we make are kids who are 12 and under. How about that? That's going to be our cutoff. So, little kids, if you want a picture, I don't mind. I can't say no to little kids. You bigger folks, you're just going to get a handshake and maybe a kiss if—[laughter]—unless you haven't shaved, in which case—so anyway, everybody have a wonderful time.
God bless you. God bless America.
NOTE: The President spoke at 7:12 p.m. on the South Lawn at the White House.

SUMNER: Why have you taken my people prisoner?
WRAITH: You trespassed upon our feeding ground.
SUMNER: Feeding ground?
WRAITH: All living things must eat. In this I'm sure we are similar. You feel hunger even now -- I can sense it. Yet you resist. Why?
SUMNER: Why do you care?
WRAITH: Hunger is distasteful.
SUMNER (looking at Toran's corpse): Looks to me like the food didn't agree with him.
WRAITH: There we are quite dissimilar, Colonel Sumner. (She leans over Toran, running a long fingernail down his head.) We don't require our food to agree with us.

Plot Summary
Over 2000 years ago, the 12 Apostles of Christ were warned that one day Satan would retaliate against God, for casting he and his Angels into hell, so the Apostles each made a special Dagger to kill each of Satan's 12 equivalent Demons, he has unleashed to re-stake his claim. That day has come, as was written in the Books of Revelations. However, direct-Blood-line Descendants of the Apostles, called the 'Alpha Disciples', have collected the Daggers passed-down through time, and come together to take-on Satan's deadly Cult of Gothic Demons, before ALL of hell's demons are released upon the earth.

TEYLA: We have always lived in the shadow of the Wraith, but my people have never been in a place such as this. They are afraid. Some believe the ghosts of the Ancestors remain.
WEIR: I don't think that's the case, but-but still we're going to need a bit more time in order to explore the entire city.
SHEPPARD: We're very cautious intergalactic explorers.
WEIR: And we don't want anyone else getting hurt the way Halling did. I mean, everyone needs to understand they are not to touch anything unfamiliar unless it's been cleared first.
McKAY: That's very important. I mean, you never know, even a tiny little innocuous thing can, can kill you. (Sheppard looks at him. McKay raises a hand.) Dead man talking.
