President Obama on Tuesday urged Congress to reverse draconian spending cuts set to take effect March 1 before shipbuilders at an event in Virginia.

“I’ve run my last election,” Obama said. “I’m not interested in spin, I’m not interested in playing a blame game. All I’m interested in is solving problems.”

“The one thing about being president is after four years you become pretty humble,” he added.
