mr. garrett, and that bill says we ought to have accurate accounting. fair cost accounting of government loan programs. we are in the business of garne he teaing a whole lot of loans in this institution, mr. speaker. loans for all sorts of meritorious activity that we would agree on both sides of the aisle are worthy of being carried on, but the question is how do we account for that in the budget process? today we assume that those loans will never go bad. that those loans will never go bad and we will only reflect a cost of the american taxpayer guaranteeing those loans when and if those loans do go bad, but that's not what happens in the real world. that's not what we ask of our bankers down on main street. that's not what we ask of any financial institution. we run you right out of town if you tried to do your accounting that way in the real world, mr. speaker. so, what mr. garrett says is, why can't we apply real world accounting to this institution? why can't we hold ourselves to the same high standard that we hold folks back home? i applaud him f

mr. obama on this trip. chief white house correspondent major garrett joins us now. major, the president is in asia, but these days, the ukrainian crisis follows him wherever he goes. what impact is it having on this trip? >> reporter: jim, president obama knows his foreign policy here is under fire here at asia and at home. in seoul, the president argued that the answer to every tough foreign policy challenge isn't war and slow-moving diplomacy and economic pressure-- so- called soft power-- can and will work. but the chaos in ukraine has europe on edge and mr. obama on the defensive for talking tougher than he has acted. >> axelrod: naturally, the white house wants to push back against the idea the president is having trouble in the foreign policy arena. are there foreign policy successes he can point to right now? >> reporter: jim, top officials concede there are very few bright spots. in the middle east, the president's months-long effort to broker a peace deal between the israelis and the palestinians has fallen apart. in syria, the bloody civil war rages on. th

garrett is traveling with the president in seoul. >> reporter: good morning. president obama said russian president vladimir putin has an increasing tendency to view the war through a cold war prism. mr obama noted the collapse of middle east peace talks. with south korean president park at his side, he said the u.s. and europe are still looking toward diplomacy to resolve the crisis in ukraine. >> what we've been trying to do is to continually raise the costs for russia of their actions, while still leaving the possibility of them moving in a different direction. you know, we will continue to keep some arrows in our quiver in the event that we see a further deterioration of the situation over the next several days or weeks. >> the president also conceded peace talks between israelis and palestinians are at an impasse with little optimism in sight. >> there's one door and that is the two parties getting together and making some very difficult political compromises in order to secure the future of both israelis and palestinians for future generations. we have not yet seen them walk through that door. we will continue to encourage them to walk through that door. do i expect that they w
