The Patriot Post® · GOP 'Begging for America to Fail'

“Can you remember a time in your lifetime when a major political party was just sitting around, begging for America to fail?” Bill Clinton asked ABC’s George Stephanopolous, who once was one of Clinton’s most trusted advisers.

The former president continued, “If I were the president, I wouldn’t negotiate over these draconian cuts that are gonna take food off the table of low-income working people, while they leave all the agricultural subsidies in for high-income farmers and everything else. It’s chilling to me. The entitlement spending is going down as the unemployment rate drops and the economy grows. Half of the deficit’s already disappeared. The rest of it just seems almost spiteful.”

As usual with the Left, rather than discuss the merits of the debate, they demonize their opponents. Clinton has always had that strategy down pat.
