Rob Woodall said "To read from the President's inaugural address. It took place just outside our backdoor here. He said: We must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit. He didn't say we should make the easy choices, because there aren't any easy choices left to make. Every single one of them is hard. And I have such great respect for Members of this body who have taken the hard votes and made those hard decisions. All this bill says is: Mr. President, put your budget where your speeches are. Make the hard choices, any of the choices you want to make to balance, anytime you want to balance, but we can't begin to pay down the debt until we stop running up the debt. And we have yet to see a budget from this President that puts us on that path. I reserve the balance of my time. Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Deutch)." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
