Bill Clinton: Mitt Romney's Jeep-to-China ad is 'biggest load of bull in the world' (VIDEO)
10/29/12
Excerpt:
Chrysler released a statement on Monday saying it had no plans to stop producing Jeeps in the U.S.
The statement said, "U.S. Jeep assembly lines will continue to stay in operation."
Clinton recounted talking to Obama earlier Monday about the claim by the Romney campaign.
"I saw the reports of Gov. Romney's latest ads saying that the president had allowed Jeep to move to China. And so this morning, before [Obama] left Florida, and went back to Washington, he said, 'You know, of all the things that Gov. Romney has said, that probably hurts my feelings the most,' " Clinton said, referring to the president.
"He said, 'You know I never had any money when I was a kid and the first car I owned I was 30 years old, it was a Jeep. I would never move Jeep to China,' " Clinton said.
"Now it turns out that Jeep is reopening in China because they made so much money here they can afford to do it, and they are going with their plans here. They put out a statement today saying it's the biggest load of bull in the world that they would ever consider shutting down operations. They are roaring in America thanks to people like the people of Ohio."
