Bill Clinton actually said...

"Hard work rewarded by rising living standards is literally at the heart of what it means to be an American."

"I always said—on February 17th I said if we can meet these principles, $500 billion in deficit reduction, aggressive taxation, incentives to invest in America, move from welfare to work, lift the work..."

"I secured agreement early on for about $250 billion in tax cuts, spending cuts, I mean, a little under, about $245 billion."

"This administration is about jobs, incomes, health care, education, and training, and bringing this deficit down."
