Bill Clinton actually said...

"This is the only time I'm interfering with the independence of the Fed."

"I wish I could have so much success in the Middle East peace talks—I just ask them, and they say yes, the way Mr. Greenspan did."

"We're working at it."

"We want to have a high probability of success, and I believe that in America, Americans of all political parties and all stripes desperately want us to see a comprehensive peace in the Middle East."
