Mr. Speaker. my Republican friends love to talk about hard work. Why. from welfare to immigration. they can fit words of praise for working Americans into just about any debate. If this were a debate contest. they could win awards for all their fine rhetoric. But rhetoric will not pay the real bills of real people. Nice rhetoric might win someone a sound bite on the evening news. but it will not send any kids to college. or pay for a mortgage. or cover the doctor bills. And unfortunately. my Republican friends are much better at rhetoric than rewarding hard work.
