President Obama held a news conference about the economy today, chiding Congress for its failure to act on measures designed to improve growth. But reporters also wanted to know about recent reports of his "kill list" for drone attacks and cyberwarfare against Iran. John McCain and others have suggested that deliberate leaks from the White House itself were intended to make him look tough on national security, a response the President characterized as "offensive." David Lightman reports from Washington for the McClatchy Newspapers.
