Bill Clinton: Bush Tax Cuts 'Immoral', 'Unethical'
Ex-president Bill Clinton is blasting President Bush's economic policies as "immoral" and "unethical," saying he blames administration tax cuts for increasing hostility towards the U.S. around the world.
"I hear all this talk about family values and all this stuff," Clinton told an audience at the University of Minnesota on Saturday, before explaining how an old friend had been hurt by cuts in subsidies for Americans in need while the wealthy got tax cuts.
"I resent it," Clinton said, his voice rising in anger. "I think it's immoral, I think it's unethical."
"Nobody ever explains what the meaning of those tax cuts are," he told the crowd. "So we're going to give them their tax cuts first and then go ask the Chinese to loan us money to help save the lives of the young men and women we send into combat."
The Minnesota crowd applauded as the ex-president continued to paint the White House as fiscally irresponsible in a way that shortchanges other countries.

True. Clinton wouldn't know the difference between moral and immoral if she er it bit him.
The Bushes treating this guy with respect and helping him restore his credibility is really working out well.
au contrar mon ami LOL Bill knows just what it means....
only a slick lawyer would come up with asking what is the definition of is
I think coke got to his brain.
LOL...I thought I was the only one who didn't get the last 4 letters! Small hint, Manic_Episode?
Clinton is dying to get on a major tv show this week.
Clinton's the master of this. They buy anything this guy has to sell.
Just enough distance past the recession he caused such that people forget about all that.
TUHYRF!
"How do libs get off sayng stealing money from the hardworking folks is moral and ethical?"
I see your point and I'll raise you one. How do the Pubs sell the idea of cutting the RATE of INCREASE in taxes as a tax cut?
Just curious....
Then he should give it back. If all these phony baloney liberals would give their share of the tax cuts back we could cut the deficit in half.
I thought Monica was the CSAH.
Still waiting for my 1992 Tax cut you promised me Billy.
Hey, what would you expect: this was for the Minnesota crowd.......they are still waiting for the stone to be rolled away from Welstoned tomb.
As opposed to selling our nuclear technology to the Chinese, you traitorous scumbag.
Has he ever heard of a tax cut that he agreed was moral or ethical (let alone both)? And the meaning behind a tax cut is that the people are being taxed too much, and that Congress is spending too much!!"
Bill Clinton ~ the T.O. of politics!
"Blah, blah, blah" ping. LOL.
