“If President Clinton has his way, we will have a false debate in the 1996 election campaign. It will not engage real political choices - choices framed by our appetite for government services and our distaste for taxes - but rather artificial choices crafted by Clinton to advance his reelection. Clinton has clearly been using the budget as an election platform...I dislike using the word 'lies,' but Clinton exploits such forbearance (widespread in the press) to spread untruths.” IfsWayRealGovernmentPoliticalLyingChoicesPresidentTaxesElectionPressesClintonSpreadCampaignsDebateBudgetsAppetiteDislikeArtificialPlatformsExploitsFramedUntruthForbearancePresident ClintonDistasteReelectionGovernment Service Author:Robert J.

“We have arrived at socialized medicine in America. I do not report this as either a good or bad event but simply as something that has happened with hardly anyone realizing it. This is the first result - and probably the most important - of the national health care debate launched last week by President Clinton. Our politics and economy will never again be the same.” FirstsImportantCareLastsAmericaPresidentRealizingResultsEconomyHappenedWeekEventsMedicineClintonDebateHealth CareReportsPresident ClintonSocialized Medicine Author:Robert J.
