Bill Clinton actually said...

"Will our first priority be spending the budget surpluses we have worked so hard to create on a terrifically appealing tax cut in the moment?"

"Our plan would put priority on investing for the future."

"I believe it would target the lion's share of the benefits away from the middle class who need the money the most to prepare for the future of their children and their own retirement."

"We should be willing to give some of these decisions to the future, instead of taking it now."
