MERIMACK, NH (AP) — Presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton on Wednesday called for a national broadband Internet system and permanent research tax credits and took a swipe at the Bush administration quoting comedian Stephen Colbert for the second time in a week.
The Democratic front-runner and New York senator said high-tech jobs can't be sustained without investment in the high-tech fields, and if elected she would chart "a new course to create new jobs, grow the economy and strengthen the middle class."
"The nation that invented the Internet is now ranked about 25th in access to it," Clinton said in her latest speech directed at the middle class appeals.
...
"To paraphrase Stephen Colbert, that great philosopher, this administration doesn't make decisions based on facts, it makes facts based on decisions," Clinton said to laughter. "By ignoring or manipulating science the Bush administration is letting our economic competitors get an edge in the global economy."
