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.

And Bill Clinton was the most immoral and unethical POTUS ever, ever, ever."

Agreed.

And another POS serving as an ex-president is one of the most egocentric individuals you can imagine.

It's (Flourish of trumpets), none other than peanut farmer Jimmah Cahtah and his lovely lady Rose Marie. Er, Rosemary? Aha! Rosalyn, that's it.

Isn't it inspiring to know that these two are always alert, always ready, always prepared? William Jefferson for the next booty that comes along; Jimmah for the next dictator he can fawn on.

I mean, for months Hillary believed the story that Monica was just an intern who came to Clinton asking for help in finding a job. And of course, he wasted no time in finding a position for her.

OK, Jay Leno said it – still true, though.

""Until this country walks away from it, we are going to pay the price. They know we do this. Don't you think people around the world know we do this? And don't you think this has something to do with the way they look at us?"

As they say....you just can't make this stuff up!
Yep, The Beast is gonna make a run for the WH.

That dope actually had the nerve to suggest that his would be "the most ethical administration in U.S. history."

I note that Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton are Democrats, and neither gives a rat's behind about their native land. It's all about them.

"Bill Clinton doesn't know the definition of immoral or unethical."

Bill Clinton is the definition of immoral and unethical. He knows a lot about both subjects.

Doesn't that scumbag have a tender ticker these days?
He really should find himself a rocking chair.

I apologize to everyone. I had been drinking and was a bit grumpy. I normally don't behave like that, however 17 in a row must be some kind of new record here at FR.

Conversely by DU standards I am a wuss.
