Good old Slick Willie. Think how much he has enriched our national dialogue with such pronouncements such "I did not have sex with that woman" and "That depends on what your definition of 'is' is". Now Mr. Clinton has stated that we need to allow more immigrants into this country to pay the taxes to finance the older generation. This from the man who looted Social Security to create a budget surplus. Because, I guess, that these older workers never had children of their own who are now part of the part of the 21% unemployment rate, and we stopped letting people enter the country legally a long time ago.
Wait a minute, didn't Slick Willie promise us that NAFTA, by shipping good paying manufacturing jobs to Mexico, would ease illegal immigration?
Former President Clinton made his statements at a summit convened by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation to discuss ways to deal with the runaway national deficit. Here's an idea. End the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
But no, this makes sense, increase the tax base, we don't have top cut government spending. Allow enough in and we can bring back those Bush tax cuts! You see, unlike those whiny Teabaggers, who want the government to do everything for them with out actually paying for it, many illegal immigrants pay up at tax time. Mean while, as they flood the labor pool, illegal immigrants will drive down wages, benefittting all them rich guys getting tax cuts because the tax burden has been shifted to the working people of this country. Good Old Slick Willie, he's always looking out for somebody. Unfortunately, it's neither you nor I.

Good old NAFTA; that was supposed to be the big cure-all. And that worked out so well, we followed it up with CAFTA (during Bush's term).
It's about time Clinton the fraud came into the light of day.
Tom,
Yes, free trade works wonderfully for those who got, but hurts those who do not.
mandt,
I don't care that Clinton got a blow job in the Oval Office, I'm more concerned about how he screwed us while he was at it.
