President Barack Obama is praising Democrats as more willing to make tough choices and criticizing Republicans as afraid to do anything, including vote on his Supreme Court nominee.

Speaking at a California fundraiser, Obama lauded House Democrats for casting difficult votes “because we understood we had a certain responsibility to get things done.”

Guess abortion is a tougher choice than letting the child live and nurturing it?

He’s setting up the dhimmicrats for another pasting by playing a stupid “Let’s you and him fight” game that he won’t (as usual) have to dirty himself at.

You took the words right outta my mouth. Neither party has the balz to make the tough choices. If they did, we’d have a balanced budget and no national debt.

“TOUGH CHOICES!”

Is there any example ever in the history of our timid and weak government where any “tough choice” has ever been made since the WWII?

That’s the very reason we find ourselves at this point in American history today.
