Bill Clinton actually said...

"I feel passionately myself, as does the Vice President, about the space program and about this project as redesigned."

"We are going to do everything we can to stop this practice of nonfunded mandates."

"We can be partners there, but a lot of that work has to be done at the State and local level."

"It is an immense personal loss to me and to Hillary and to many of his close friends here and a great loss to the White House and to the country."
