Sunday Nov. 11, 2001; 12:37 p.m. EST Hillary Blames 9/11 Attack on Bush Tax Cuts

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton said Saturday that she blames the Bush administration's tax cut program for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that leveled the World Trade Center and destroyed part of the Pentagon.

"If we hadn't passed the big tax cut last spring, that I believe undermined our fiscal responsibility and our ability to deal with this new threat of terrorism, we wouldn't be in the fix we're in today," Clinton told CNN's Jonathan Karl.

In addition to undermining the country's ability to deal with terrorist attacks, Clinton said the Bush tax cuts worsened the economic downturn in the wake of Sept. 11.

"We had eight years of prosperity because we paid down our debt and we got rid of our deficit," she complained. "We hit a rough spot, and it was turned into a terrible bump because of the attacks of September 11."

Clinton also criticized the economic stimulus package passed last month by the Republican controlled House of Representatives.

"I thought the plan passed by the House of Representatives was a fiscal disaster that would set our country back for years to come," the 2004 presidential hopeful said, adding, "I don't understand how they passed it with a straight face."

Clinton slammed Bush and congressional Republicans after telling CNN that "the fight against terrorism has to be such a united effort."

CNN's Karl did not ask Clinton about her husband's comments Wednesday, where he seemed to blame the 9/11 attacks on 19th Century U.S. slavery and the mistreatment of the American Indian.

She was also not queried on accounts by former White House insiders who say her husband was too preoccupied by his extra-marital liaisons to follow through on repeated promises to hunt down Osama bin Laden.

It could have been the tax-cuts or her campaign getting some terrorists pardons??? I think the pardons were a bigger sign to the terrorists. They are getting the message now that GW is in charge and receiving that 90% approval!!!

hillary had nothing to do with the prosperity of the 1990s.

it was due to the policies of ronald reagan and the benefits of the information technology revolution.

Hillary and bill klinton are trying DESPARATELY to place the blame for the terrorist attack on ANYONE, but especially President Bush, so that NO ONE takes the time to look at the red carpet they rolled out for terrorists to infilatrate our nation during their eight year reign of terror.

She and her filthy husband also do NOT want any future terrorists to consider the clintons when they are marking their targets.

To say this when we are in a time of war, to creat this type of turmoil in our nation is so low and so absolutely breathtakingly small and worse, a lie, is about as much evidence as we will EVER need to know that these are bad, bad people.

hillary wants to control the debate. She is ordering the media to take this slant so as to avoid ANY questions regarding the open buffet table she and her husband laid out for the likes of Atta and his crew. And the media, panting at more WH parties if hitlery ever does run for the presidency and win, will do their part-propaganda is their life when they are working on behalf of the sick clintons. She will depend on her icky, panting, shallow, WH party loving friends in the press like the groveling katie couric, the CNN crew en mass, peter jennings and others to make this the DIALOGUE in the media.

She knows how to jump the gun-how to deflect with the best of um. But the REAL DIALOGUE should be, WHEN DID THESE TERRORISTS ARRIVE IN OUR COUNTRY? What INS proceedures permitted their entry? What security procedures at the LOS ALAMOS LAB allowed for infiltration into some of our deepest scientific info? What was the purpose of making over ONE MILLION people AMERICAN CITIZENS without even requiring background checks, much less ANY STUDY on what it means to be an American and what our RULE OF LAW means? Why did she and her husband PARDON terrorists in their last days in office? And on and on and on and on.....

Hillary is a very low person.

No Hilldebeast, it is your husband's fault. If he would have had one iota of duty towards this country, instead of where he was getting his latest hummer, then we would not have these problems and these unnecessary murders.

Now we know how Chelsea came up with that Bush Tax Cut bit in her STORY about her "big adventure" on 9-11. It was done to promote Hillary's agenda. I am sure that Hillary even insisted the inclusion of that absurd thought in Chelsea's story along with praying to God in thanx that Hillary was Senator. The most hilarious thing about this is the total lack of subtlety involved.
