At Texas Debate, Hillary's So Wrong, She's Accidentally Right
Hillary Clinton attempted to take an economic swipe at John McCain's fiscal policy tonight by attacking his position on the Bush tax cuts. By blatantly mischaracterizing his initial position on those tax cuts (claiming he supported them, whereas he was one of two Republicans who did not) and wrongly maligning the cuts as "wasteful", she pulled off an impressive double fallacy which inadvertently landed her on the correct side of the argument - one of opposition to McCain's initial stance on the Bush tax cuts.
Congratulations, Senator!
Stephen Spruiell put it well.
Fact Error + Oxymoron = ...
... Hillary claiming that John McCain supported Bush's "wasteful tax cuts." (McCain opposed them at the time but supports making them permanent now.)
That Hillary would call tax cuts "wasteful" is incredibly revealing. Why let taxpayers "waste" their own money when the she can think of so many wonderful ways to spend it?

You appeared to be the only one to pick up on Hillary's faux pas last night. I asked the LA Times writers why it was left out of their story when it made this site I found on Google? Here's one of the writer's replies: "Greetings, and thanks for reading. Unfortunately, we never have enough space to include everything from the debates. We do our best to give people an overview of what happened, but there certainly are always lines that readers would’ve liked to see that we just didn’t have the space to include." Nationally syndicated radio money talk show host Bob Brinker (weekends on KGO 810 in SF) took Hillary to task two weeks ago for saying "I will freeze interest rates for five years". What's even more scarier is that non of Hillary's handlers know any better.Posted by: Pat O'D | Feb 22, 2008 2:48:10 PM
