Political Quotes

“it is getting to be a tired, old refrain. Blame the Republicans and, maybe, all of your troubles will go away. From the crisis in health care to the saga of Whitewatergate, President Clinton has sung the same, old song. The Republicans are behind it. I need not remind the President that his health care plan has been discredited, not because of the Republicans, but because the American people don't want it. They don't want the taxes. They don't want the bureaucrats. And they don't want to be told by some all powerful, regional health alliance what doctors they can see and what doctors they can't see. The President has found himself enmeshed in this Whitewatergate affair, not because of the Republicans, but because he has not been forthcoming. His administration has stonewalled every request for information. His Democrat allies have stood by his side until public opinion finally overwhelmed them. Mr. Speaker, to find the source of all of his problems, the President need only look in his own backyard. This blame the Republicans business just isn't going to fly any more.”
