Is there an echo in here?

Sen Mike Lee (R-Utah) response to 2014 State of the Union address, January 29.

A two-fer.

Those individuals and families who work hard, play by the rules, balance their budgets, honor the Golden Rule … and don’t understand why their government in Washington can’t do the same.

So if you’re one of those Americans that big government is leaving behind… if you work hard, play by the rules and teach your kids to do the same, I want you to know that your family will not be forgotten anymore.

President Barack Obama, State of the Union address, January 25, 2011

"Americans who work hard and play by the rules every day deserve a government and a financial system that does the same."

President Bill Clinton, September 4, 1993. Labor Day radio address.

We'll think of the faith of our parents that was instilled in us here in America, the idea that if you work hard and play by the rules, you'll be rewarded with a good life for yourself and a better chance for your children.

Geraldine Ferraro's acceptance speech for the Democratic Vice-Presidential nomination, July 19, 1984.

Our faith that we can shape a better future is what the American dream is all about. The promise of our country is that the rules are fair. If you work hard and play by the rules, you can earn your share of America's blessings.
