U.N. Dues to Organizations That Promote Abortion
| Favor | 44% | |
| Oppose | 50 |
This is a poll the Left doesn't want you to see, because according to liberals all Americans think abortion on demand should be a worldwide right. But, they forget that in the last few years every poll has consistently shown that most Americans consider themselves pro-life. If you disagree with easy abortions in the U.s., why should we pay for abortions around the planet?
In President Clinton's visit to Kosovo earlier this week, he thanked U.S. troops for their efforts in the Balkan conflict. But, then he forgot what the military is for; he reminded them their work is not finished.
Clinton told the troops that their objective is to help the region overcome religious and ethnic hatreds. This is absolutely absurd. The military is not a charity, nor is it a 12-step group. The purpose of the military is to make and keep the peace, not preach to the people.

Former Washington, D.C., mayor Marion Barry is calling on Attorney General Janet Reno to investigate a police and FBI sting operation designed to catch him accepting a bribe.
Barry says it is "appalling and outrageous" that he would be a target.
Geez, next thing you know the FBI will set up a sting to catch the mayor buying and using drugs. Oh, yeah, that happened in 1990 when the mayor was caught and sent to jail.
