Bentway, there's a fine line between what you claimed and what Wiki actually said:

> When the previous fiscal year ended September 30, the president and the primarily Republican-controlled Congress hadn't passed a budget. Congress wanted additional cuts in Medicare, Medicaid, education, environmental controls, and the EITC, which Clinton thought were unnecessary to balance the budget. The difference in opinion resulted from differing estimates of economic growth, medical inflation, and anticipated revenues.

Of course Clinton thought cuts to those programs were "unnecessary." Those are sacred cows to tax-n-spend liberals.

You're twisting what was written in the Wiki article.
