Gov. Pawlenty delivered a 23 minute speech to Iowa Republican activists in Des Moines tonight. He criticized President Obama and Democrats in Congress for the health care bill, spending and the deficit. He also tried to turn Obama's famous line "Fired up and ready to go" back on Obama by saying ""Are you fired up and ready to fight back?"
