Political Quotes

“Governor Clinton wants to raise your taxes. He's already proposed $150 billion in new taxes and $220 billion in new spending. He announced this using the same words doctors use, ``This shot won't hurt you one single bit.'' Don't believe it. You know, we added up some of the provinces since that day in June. He's promised at least another $200 billion in investments, he calls it, without saying how he's going to pay for them. Those are just the first few that we've been able to put a price tag on, one billion dollars in new promises every single day. He's earned the nickname Billion Dollar Bill, and we don't need that now as President of the United States. You know, he says, ``Don't worry, we're going to take it out of the rich guys, the top $200,000.'' But the truth is--you look at the program--to get the money for his plan, to get the $150 billion, he'd have to hit Americans with taxable income of over $36,000. Then to pay for all the rest of his spending, you've got to take it down to about $24,000 a year. Those aren't rich people. Those are the hard-working men and women in this country, and we can't let him slap a tax on them. Now, think of this Sunday night as you listen to the debate. Judge us not as politi- cians but as leaders and as human beings, and ask who best reflects your values, and vote for who you trust to lead America at home and abroad. Barbara and I have tried to uphold the trust of the American people every day we have been in that White House. I hope we have earned your support. Ohio is important. I ask you to work hard. Give me your vote. We have changed the world, and now let's lift everyone up in America and change America. Thank you, and God bless you all. Thank you very much. Thanks for coming. Note: The President spoke at 6:03 p.m. at Port Columbus International Airport.”
