Clinton Gets Aggressive in Iowa

The ad addresses a main concern, including what I talked about on Veterans
Day. But the issue is to be on the offensive.
Then in Iowa, Clinton directed a
shot across Obama’s bow.
“They see $9 trillion in debt – and say why not trillions more?
They see tax cuts for wealthy Americans and big corporations – and say,
why not some more? They see one attempt to privatize Social Security –
and say why not one more? … ..… .. “We’ve been here before with a President who leaves the
economic cupboard bare on election day. This time, however, we won’t
just have to clean up the economic mess he made – we’ll also have
to end the war he started and address the healthcare crisis he left behind.“So we don’t need more Republican scare tactics about
a “Social Security crisis.” And we don’t need a trillion
dollar tax increase that will hit families already facing higher energy, healthcare
and college costs.“What we need is to focus on the real crises of healthcare and Medicare,
and on expanding opportunities for poor, working and middle class families
who are struggling now. If the gathering economic challenges strike all at
once in a perfect storm, these families will be hardest hit. … ..
So much for a slow Thanksgiving news week.
