Paul Ryan: If Bill Clinton Were President, the Fiscal Crisis Would Be Solved

Jan. 27, 2013 2:34pm

Former President Bill Clinton may have left office 13 years ago, but House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan appears to be feeling nostalgic for his handling of budget negotiations.

The former Republican vice presidential nominee was on NBC’s “Meet the Press” in his first Sunday morning talk show appearance since the November election. In a wide-ranging interview that ran the gamut from the coming debt ceiling negotiations to the sequester to reminiscing about the 2012 campaign, Ryan shared with host David Gregory a snippet of a conversation he had with former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during last week’s inauguration. In it, Ryan let slip his admiration for the 42nd president, as well as for Clinton’s former chief of staff Erskine Bowles.

“We were talking about personal health. Both of us lost our dads when we were young, and we were just talking. I got concussions when I was young, and Hillary was telling me about hers, and we were just kind of chumming it up,” Ryan laughed.

He continued, “Look, if we had a Clinton presidency, if we had Erskine Bowles [as] chief of staff of the White House or president of the United States, I think we’d have fixed this fiscal mess by now. That’s not the kind of presidency we’re dealing with right now.”

“You don’t blame conservatives, particularly in the House, for thwarting that effort?” Gregory asked.

“Both parties got us to the mess we are in,” Ryan said. “It’s going to take both parties to solve this problem.”

And — in what’s sure to be a standard-issue question for Ryan for the next four years — Gregory asked, “So how do you think about a 2016 run?”

“I don’t,” Ryan said.

      Seriously? Do you REALLY believe that one party (for you, that would be the Republicans) are the bad guys? And the other party (Democrats) are the good guys??? For one thing, human nature doesn’t work that way. For another thing, as long as we tout one party as “good” and the other as “bad,” we’ll never be able to cooperate. For me, it’s much more “us against them,” with us being the citizenry and them being inside the beltway. You take any smaller group of Americans, like a small city, with all their varied notions, and you will find them cooperating pretty well. We live out our lives, conservatives next to liberals, and don’t generally get in fist fights or anything like that.
      Since I am conservative, I naturally feel liberals are looney, but I don’t dismiss their ideas out of hand. Unless they’re in DC, of course. ;) In general, I don’t think anyone in DC has my personal interests at heart. They’re all working their own little trout line and their own little lives, just like the rest of us. Well, to be honest, I do really like Paul Ryan. And a few others. Republicans. :D

      Come on Dude, for real? Both parties are at each other’s throats, and have been for the last 8 years.. Since Bush’s second term, and all the way through Obama’s first term.. This is getting old, really quick, really fast.. You can blame the republicans for crazy defense spending, and you can blame the democrats for crazy public sector spending.. Really, who needs to pay for cell phones for people? Really, who needs to dump the kind of money that they are dumping into the middle east? Those are just 2 loose examples.. Ryan is dead right on his comments, and I think it’s about time that people started saying these things at the white house.. Anybody with any kind of commen sense knows for a fact that you cannot run a business, let alone a country, without some kind of budget in place.. It’s nuts to think that you can.. If I don’t budget out the things that keeps my house running, or my workplace running, i’m in deep crap! I’d lose my home, or lose my job.. It’s a very sad state of affairs that this goes on, and people like you make very uneducated comments like this. It scares the hell out of me! My children are going to have to live in the world where you may actually be in charge of something that directly affects them! I don’t want them to have to deal with that! Tell me, how do you ensure you have groceries on your table? Or a roof over your head? I’ll bet my last dollar you even have the sense to create some kind of budget.. Why don’t you expect the same from

      It is absolutely pathetic.
      95 % of the PEOPLE are CLUELESS about “Money” and our DEBT.

      Let me make it real simple.

      The ‘United States Government’ is an Insolvent Corporation. It should have been shut down, except it is “TOO BIG to FAIL”.

      The Corporation generates half of it’s revenue through UNLAWFUL and UNCONSTITUTIONAL UNAPPORTIONED FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.

      The Other half it MUST BORROW !!!!!!

      IT “BORROWS” money from a PRIVATE BANK.

      Our “Government” trades the PRIVATE BANK one (1) TREASURY BOND for one (1) FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE. This Note has Interest attached.

      A Treasury Bond is backed by the full faith and credit of our “Government”. It is a BOND ( a written evidence of debt ) traded for an I.O.U. ( Federal Reserve Note,` a.k.a. ‘DOLLAR’ ).

      A Treasury Bond is backed by America’s Assets, if we can’t afford to buy them back.

      We could NOT buy the BONDS back, so the BANK sold 2 trillion of them to China.
      Maybe the chinese paid the interest that we could not, or maybe they were considered “toxic assets” and sold for pennies on the dollar.

      Other investors have purchased 3 trillion worth of BONDS.

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      “If the nation can issue a dollar bond, it can also issue a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good, makes the bill good, also. The difference, between the bond and the bill, is that the bond lets the money-broker collect twice the amount of the bond, and an additional 20%.”

      – Thomas Edison

      Our FISCAL Problems have NOTHING to do with either political Party.

      When the Federal Reserve Act was passed, the people of these United States did not perceive that a world banking system was being set up here. A super-state controlled by international bankers and international industrialists acting together to enslave the world for their own pleasure. Every effort has been made by the Fed (Reserve) to conceal its powers but the truth is — the Fed has usurped the government!”
      – Congressman Louis McFadden

      “I am afraid that the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the banks can and do CREATE money, and they who control the credit of the nation direct the policies of governments and hold in their hands the destiny of the people.”
      – Reginald McKenna (1863-1943), President of the Midlands Bank of England, UK Chancellor 1915-16, January 1924

      “Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to befoul the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today.”
      – Theodore Roosevelt

      “The real truth of the matter is that a financial element in the large centers has owned the government since the days of Andrew Jackson.”
      – President FD Roosevelt (1933-1945)

The very inclusion of the Article II eligibility mandate in the U.S. Constitution was explicitly intended by the founding fathers of America to prevent a then British-born enemy usurper from attaining the office of the U.S. presidency and thereby undermining the sovereignty of the newly formed nation.

    When Clinton “balanced the budget” he had a Repub controlled House and Senate.

    Which is no so today. And lets not forget the last piece of legislature Clinton signed into law which ended up crippling the US economy. The “Commodities modification Act of 200′” brought back gambling on derivatives that caused to 1930′s Great Depression and written into law in 1937 to prevent that from ever happening again.

    Yep, Clinton IS to blame for a lot of this mess. Read the Bill and you’ll know.

      Hey Monk. As conservative as I am, both parties were to blame in 1999 and 2000 for passing some bad laws. Clinton did do a lot wrong, but at least he knew how to move back to the center to get things done. I was serving in the Military under him in the 1990′s, and there was a lot of things he did that I still hate him for. But if it was a choice between Clinton and Obummer, I would take Bubba any day of the week.

And, as much as I despise him and all he stands for, I have to agree with Ryan that he would have been better than what we have now! So, I think we are all pretty much in agreement.

    It’s interesting how many people think Ryan was talking about Hillary, not Bill. (Or do y’all really think saying Bill could do it is the same as saying Hillary could do it? I don’t see that, but whatever.)

    Frankly, the republicans are in a really tough spot right now. An interesting tactic might be for them to beg for Bill Clinton to come in and mediate the crisis they created. It would marginalize Obama, give street cred to Bill (not Hillary) and make them look like the reasonable ones for once.

    Mr Ryan is right.

    Mr Clinton may not be everybody’s favourite president but he was a true American president who believed in his own country. He was also a skilled manager.

    He would never have allowed the government to rack up debt at the rate of over a trillion dollars a year.

    The fact that Mr Obama is doing so, and shows no sign that he will change his profligate ways, indicates that he is either an appalling manager, or is intentionally harming the US economy.

    Either way he will clearly go down in history as the worst president that your country has ever elected.

    Stop building up Bill Clinton and thereby building up Hillary Clinton.

    Without going into the Clinton record at length, perjury, obstruction of justice, massive illegal fundraising, selling pardons etc., Clinton does not deserve the credit many Reps give him.

    If Clinton was really concerned about the country and unsustainable debt, he would have spoken out against Obama, or at least against the unsustainable debt, even if that hurt his standing with Dems and hurt Hillary’s chances.

    Mr. Ryan, you should have said if Romney or any other Rep was president and if the Reps had a majority in the Senate, we could solve the fiscal problems and bring the debt under control by fiscal discipline and pro growth pro jobs policies.

    I don’t do this for a living, but I would not say anything so stupid. Reps have a well deserved reputation for being the “stupid party.” But it does not have to be that way.

    I expect such statements from Boehner and other establishment Reps, but I am disappointed hearing from you/Mr. Ryan.

    Obama’s method of operation is not to solve problems, but to make them. He thrives on disorder. The bigger the mess the more he can accuse others of being responsible and claim that he is trying to solve the problem. Yet there never is a solution, just continuing grief.

      Spot on. Obamas method is to create more dependency on government, and you can’t do that unless things are bad.

    Chumming it up with the Clintons.
    Looks like Paul Ryan is a turncoat too.
    Can no Republicans be trusted these days?
    What happened to loyalty to the party and conservatism?

    Amazing how the Washington machine works to destroy America. With both parties working together, it seems like most people, even Blaze posters will be happy to have Hillary as the next president.

    Ryan has a point, as bad as Clinton was, he knew that a centrist approach was the only way to move a country in the right direction. Take away the BJ incident, and he would have gone down in history as one of our best presidents, instead of a president that had some on go down on him. The deal he made with Newt and the GOP, his policies, and how he actually balanced the budget were the best we have every had in this nation. Now, don’t take me wrong, I don’t like the man, he is a liar, but if he had just kept his pants zipped, Ryan is correct. As a comparison to what we have today, I would take Clinton back in a heartbeat, and create an official position in the Whitehouse for Monica, If that is what it takes to get a balanced budget, I say we send him as many as he wants.

    The real Paul Ryan has come out of the closet! Voted for the “Fiscal Cliff” spending bill. Guess he also believes that Bill Clinton’s food exchange with North Korea also “contained North Korea’s Nuclear ambitions:”. Just another GOP sell-out.

    Paul Ryan doesn’t remember that there were some Republicans who actually had a spine back then to stand up to Bill Clinton when he was President.

    You can’t negotiate with these crazy radical left wingers.

      I think Paul Ryan knows that, but would like to ignore it because it means republicans would have to grow a spine instead of blaming democrats for everything

    At least Bill Clinton was A(!) President. Beats what we have now…

    He might have been on the wrong side of the aisle but he did govern somewhat from the center. I can respect that at least. I cannot respect what we have now.

      Want to stack Clinton’s sexual perversions against JFK?

      I really couldn’t care less about where he keeps his cigars.

    Please don’t let wimpy Ryan run for President. He is not nearly fiscally conservative enough tackle any of our problems.

    He would be better than Christy creme or Jeb Bush but he could not win my vote.

    No Ryan, we’re not dealing with Clinton, we’re dealing with a Marxist wannable Dictator in the White House who does not have any intention of bringing our country out of this total mess we’re in. Obama is just there to demonize/divide and conquer.

      Considering most republican positions at this point, what would be the difference if Hillary were president? The way the republicans are currently backing Obama’s policies, Hillary may end up being more conservative then the republican nominee.

      Mr or Ms ANONYMOUS T IRRELEVANT,

      This is what you must know:

      You mean besides Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan (and every other Republican candidate).

      It is so.

      It is so.

      Conservatives do not stand a chance. RINOs have taken over the Republican Party … RINOs whose ideology is a cruice to Socialism in contract with Obama’s “pedal to the medal” approach. In other words … the Party which advocated limited government no longer exists.
