Attention !! Everything in the below quote is BS !! Nothing more than a fabrication of the truth.
The statement WAS in reference to repealing the Bush tax cuts. You can disagree with whether or not that was desireable....it was if you wanted to reduce the budget deficit that Bush blew a hole in....but you can't dispute the context of her words.
All you can do IS take them out of context and misrepresent the meaning of what was said, as you did. Go back to FOX News, Red State and Ass-On-Fire Daily for more material. LOL!

This statement by Senator Hillary Clinton was not (as commonly assumed) addressed to the general public, but rather to a group of relatively well-to-do Democrats attending a June 2004 fundraiser for California senator Barbara Boxer. Her statement specifically referred to a desire to repeal tax cuts that had recently been enacted by the Bush administration, cuts which many Democrats had criticized as favoring the wealthy:
Headlining an appearance with other Democratic women senators on behalf of Sen. Barbara Boxer, who is up for re-election this year, Hillary Clinton told several hundred supporters — some of whom had ponied up as much as $10,000 to attend — to expect to lose some of the tax cuts passed by President Bush if Democrats win the White House and control of Congress.
"Many of you are well enough off that ... the tax cuts may have helped you," Sen. Clinton said. "We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."
