Federal Seers, Telling Nation's Fiscal Fortune
Federal Seers, Telling Nation's Fiscal Fortune By FRANK BRUNI WASHINGTON -- Kathy Gramp peered beneath the stacks of paper on her desk and poked through the drawers, an expression of bafflement on her face. Her calculator was at large. "It's here somewhere," she insisted, rolling her eyes. She seemed to appreciate the strangeness of this particular piece of equipment vanishing, given her job. Ms. Gramp is one of the workers at the Congressional Budget Office who crunch the numbers that tell the country's financial fortune. Then again, Ms. Gramp, who refers to herself as "chatty Kathy" and points to the ... -
Bush's Right-Hand Man Is a Friend With a Midas Touch
Bush's Right-Hand Man Is a Friend With a Midas Touch By DAVID FIRESTONE AUSTIN, Tex. -- Back in Midland, in the harrowing, exhilarating oil days of rising gushers and falling prices, they all had nicknames: Dennis Grubb was "Wemus," George W. Bush was "Boosto" or "the Bombastic Bushkin," Joe O'Neill was "Spider" and Donald L. Evans was usually "Evvie" or "Donnie." But sometimes, just to annoy the future politician in the rambunctious Mr. Bush, the friends used to call Mr. Evans by another name: "Governor." Back then, in the 70's and 80's, it was Mr. Evans' earnest, organized demeanor that ... -
Nation's Economic Boom a Faint Echo in Appalachia
Nation's Economic Boom a Faint Echo in Appalachia By FRANCIS X. CLINES MANCHESTER, Ky. -- "The economic boom?" asked Donna McDonald at her roadside flea market rack of used clothes -- humbly frayed offerings that she has been buying more than selling lately as local customers survive until their welfare checks next week. Ms. McDonald stared wide-eyed at the question of the boom, as if directions were being sought to some Nirvana far beyond the green highlands and idle coal mines in this hard-core heart of Appalachia. "Not here," she noted of the whirring economy. "Right now a lot of ... -
WORLD CHURCH OF THE CREATOR IS ANTI-CHRISTIAN -- (Re: Illinois/Indiana Hate Killer)

But doesn't the Christian religion teach love and understanding, in fact, love your enemies, and yet it has survived? A. The Christian religion is a good case in point when we talk about liars and hypocrites.

U.S. Expecting Kashmir Pullback by Pakistani Side
U.S. Expecting Kashmir Pullback by Pakistani Side By JANE PERLEZ WASHINGTON -- After three hours of hastily arranged talks here between President Clinton and the Pakistani prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, administration officials said Sunday that they expect that Pakistani-backed forces would withdraw from their mountain redoubt on the Indian side of the cease-fire line in Kashmir. But the officials, who participated in the sessions with the two leaders, seemed uncertain how or even if Sharif would be able to guarantee a withdrawal of the forces, who the administration believes are controlled by the Pakistani military and include some of its ... -

More Details About Blackjack Flight, NATO and Russian version of the events
2050 GMT, 990702 – The June 29 edition of Russia’s Nezavisimaya Gazeta, a newspaper controlled by close Yeltsin ally Boris Berezovsky, offered a detailed account of the flight of two Russian strategic bombers down the Norwegian coast which differed somewhat in perspective from the version of events being carried in the Western press. The Los Angeles Times reported that the two Tu-160 "Blackjack" bombers "flew down the coastline of Norway, also a NATO member." The report continued, "The move set Norwegian fighter planes scrambling. But the Blackjacks headed east before they could be intercepted." Nezavisimaya Gazeta’s version of events is ... -

Teachers Wary of New Exams: Poll Finds Support For D.C. Program By Victoria Benning Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, July 5, 1999; Page A01 Second of two articles Washington area teachers are divided on the growing use of standardized tests to evaluate public schools, and suburban teachers are more troubled than those in the District about the high stakes that the student exams now carry, according to a poll by The Washington Post. The teachers' ambivalence contrasts sharply with the wide consensus among area policymakers that test scores are essential in judging how much students have learned and how well ... -
Salute to Our Everyday Heroes
Salute to Our Everyday Heroes By Eric K. Shinseki Monday, July 5, 1999; Page A21 The bombing has stopped. The negotiations are over. And as tough as this phase of peacemaking has been, the hard, dangerous work of peacekeeping has just begun. Paratroopers from the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne Division led deploying NATO forces as the peacekeepers began establishing themselves in the bombing range that was Kosovo. Within hours, tensions between Serbian and Albanian Kosovars flared into scattered bloodshed. Three German journalists were killed. In the weeks and months to come the likelihood of violence is as high as the ... -
Census as Pawn, Again
Census as Pawn, Again Monday, July 5, 1999; Page A20 WHEN THE PARTIES were arguing in the last Congress and earlier this year about the use of sampling in the 2000 census, one of the issues was cost. Democrats said sampling was the only affordable way to correct the undercount of minority groups and poor people that increasingly has affected the census in recent decades; after taking the normal head count, the bureau would make adjustments to reflect the results of elaborate recounts in sample census districts. Republicans, who oppose the use of sampling, which they fear could cost them ... -

Murder Suspect Well Known in College
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) -- The man suspected in a deadly shooting spree targeting blacks, Jews and Asians told a student newspaper last year that the American government favors minorities at the expense of whites. ``I think it is pretty clear that our government has turned against white people,'' Benjamin Nathaniel Smith told Indiana University's student newspaper in an article that appeared July 4, 1998. Smith -- a wiry, unassuming English major -- spoke to the newspaper after he tucked leaflets touting his white supremacist beliefs beneath the windshield wipers of about 1,000 cars at the Bloomington campus, about 60 miles ... -

Clinton blindsides Dems on Y2K bill
Clinton blindsides Dems on Y2K bill July 4, 1999 BY ROBERT NOVAK SUN-TIMES COLUMNIST Democratic senators who opposed a bill limiting Y2K lawsuits after being told it would be vetoed complained that they once more had been forced to "walk the plank" by President Clinton after he abruptly changed course Tuesday and accepted a compromise. Sen. Patrick Leahy, the Senate Judiciary Committee's senior Democrat and a Clinton loyalist, publicly grumbled about "triangulation" (the president splitting the difference between Republicans and Democrats) and privately said much worse. Particularly bitter were a dozen Democratic senators pressed into voting against the ... -

Incentives designed to boost reconstruction and employment in poor areas will be included in a tax package backed by House Republicans, Speaker J.

Clinton Begins Tour of Poor Areas to Push Economic Incentives By Charles Babington Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, July 5, 1999; Page A02 President Clinton begins a four-day, six-state tour to some of the nation's most impoverished areas today, saying that the government and private sector should do more to bring the benefits of a booming economy to regions that continue to struggle. The president--who regularly touts the economy's bright spots from Silicon Valley to Wall Street--will focus attention on places synonymous with persistent poverty and high unemployment: Appalachia, the Mississippi Delta, the Watts area in Los Angeles and an ... -

Bradley's surprise performance in raising $11.5 million so far this year -- almost two-thirds the amount raised by the incumbent vice president -- has given him the respect crucial to elevating ... -
Refugees And The Uprooted
Monday, July 5, 1999 People and Politics Refugees and the uprooted By Akiva Eldar Like most Israeli government ministers, the people in the White House do not understand exactly what the difference is between the "refugees" (from 1948) and the "uprooted" (from 1967). Outgoing Foreign Minister Ariel Sharon happens to be one of those people who do understand the difference, and certainly better than United States President Bill Clinton. Imagine the uproar at the Foreign Ministry and in the American Jewish community if the president of the United States were to distribute a document declaring that ... -
Lost opportunities are at the heart of the Clinton legacy (Barf bag alert)
Lost opportunities are at the heart of the Clinton legacy By Richard N. Goodwin, 07/04/99 erhaps the most notable characteristic of the Clinton administration has been the belief that to talk about a problem is to deal with it or, at least, to persuade others that you are dealing with it. Thus, we have been treated to passionate discussions of race or education unaccompanied by any substantial measures, almost as if to name a problem were to solve it. The president's latest proposal to expand Medicare, although welcome, is a poignant reminder of how much time and opportunity have ... -
A Quickie at the White House--July 4, 1999
Clinton's a liar, a few of her friends from work, and I went to the Mall tonight to watch the fireworks. As we drove past the South Lawn of the White House, in search of a parking space, we saw that it was filled with thousands of people. Guests of the president and first lady--mainly staffers and their families, I presume, were spread out from the fence to the Executive Mansion, enjoying one of the perks of power in D.C.We eventually found a parking space and then found a comfortable spot of grass on the Mall, as close to the ... -
Democrats, return to your roots
Democrats, return to your roots By Robert Kuttner, 07/04/99 We are in a wholly new budget era in which public spending is again thinkable. For the Republicans this bonanza invites more tax cuts. For Democrats it creates an immense opportunity - if they will just awake from the coma induced by two decades of fiscal trauma. This past week the Congressional Budget Office forecast that the budget surplus over the next 15 years is a trillion dollars greater than previously forecast. A trillion dollars! The reason is a combination of higher-than-assumed economic growth and the long-term effect of budget ... -
U.S. Media Spikes July 4th Clinton Embarrassment
Inside Cover Sunday July 4, 2:32 PM A picture is worth a thousand words, or so the saying goes. But when it comes to President Clinton, there are some pictures that the American media would rather you didn't see. One such amazing moment, undoubtedly captured on film by all the major networks, took place on Friday -- as America's President and America's symbol, a bald eagle named Challenger, stood side by side on the White House lawn. The ceremony was meant to celebrate the removal of Challenger and his brethren from the endangered species list. But the moment soon ... -

Clintons, Gore Go Their Separate Political Ways
Clintons, Gore Go Their Separate Political Ways By Laurence McQuillan WASHINGTON (Reuters) - If two are company and three are a crowd, the White House is a crowded place for politicians these days. President Clinton is focused on his legacy, Vice President Al Gore wants to be the next president, and first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton seems intent on running for the Senate. After years of championing a common agenda, the political paths of the three are diverging and that has caused some awkward moments of late. Gore last month declared his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination for the ... -
***WHOM DO I SEE WHEN I LOOK AT GEORGE W.?***
COMMENTARY . . Like most Americans, I live outside of Texas. I've never had the chance to vote--or not vote--for George W. Bush. That may change. As he moves toward the national arena, I can't help wondering just who it is one would be voting for. Not that Bush lacks clarity or definition--he may be the very essence of well-defined. But he suffers from a difficult form of identity problem. Frankly, I don't know much about Texas' governor. Like many outsiders, I can summon a few key headlines from memory: Bush surveys tornado damage; Bush denies reprieve for Death Row ... -

Nearly two-thirds of the respondents in an unscientific survey conducted by the Libertarian Party News said they would not want Hogan at the top of their ticket. "It takes more than a big name and big muscles to win our respect," says party spokesman Bill Winter. Meanwhile, the fight over moving Ross Perot's Reform Party from Texas to Florida may turn into a grudge match resembling those ... -
Turkish troops enter Kosovo: a Kosovar dream and Serb nightmare
PRIZREN, Yugoslavia -- Troops from Turkey rolled in Sunday, and Prizren went wild: dancing in the street, waving crimson banners and chanting slogans that evoked old glory in a reviving city studded with Turkish mosque towers. The 130 soldiers, vanguard of a 1,000-man Turkish NATO deployment within the German sector, symbolized the Serbs' worst nightmare. Turks were pushed from Kosovo in 1912 after half a millennium of Ottoman rule. "Happy!" yelled Sgt. Hasan Ibrahim, as he snagged a flying bouquet of roses and added it to the pile on his truck dashboard. "We are very, very happy!" Stuck in ... -
How the Republicans implemented the Democrats' National ID Plan
This article memorializes, for posterity sake, the establishment of the national identification system in America. A lot of people, just now being confronted with the national ID laws, are quick to blame President Clinton. He certainly is an easy target. But the reality is that the Republicans are solely responsible for these programs, as you will see below. How The Republicans Implemented the Democrats' National ID Plan One day, in the not too distant future, a generation of Americans is going to wake up and ask: "How did we become shackled with a government that tracks, monitors, regulates, controls, ... -
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Delaration of Independence?
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence? Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners; ... -
Russia accuses U.S. of 'provocation' after NATO blocks troops
MOSCOW (AP) -- In the latest sign of frayed relations between Russia and the West, Russian troops were forced to delay their departure for Kosovo on Sunday after NATO blocked air corridors on their route. Infuriated Russian defense officials said the reasoning behind the move amounted to a U.S. "provocation." A NATO delegation arrived in the Russian capital on Sunday to hold talks on the impasse, and the Interfax news agency reported that intense efforts to resolve the dispute were under way between Russian and alliance officials. The billowing controversy came the same day that American and Russian officials ... -
How Albanian PAC Money Bought the War in Kosovo
NEW YORK, July 3 - As with most things in Washington, congressional complicity in Bill Clinton's war crimes against the Serbs was no accident. Ben Works, a Vietnam veteran, and a New York-based political analyst and commentator for CBS Radio and Fox News, has been researching this issue for a long time. And he has concluded that the Albanians basically bought this war on Serbia with a combination of drug-tainted money, and legal and illicit campaign contributions. Back in 1986 (yes, 13 years ago!), Works dug up a Senate Resolution proposed by the then Senator Bob Dole of Kansas, decrying ... -
Polish Group Wants Central Warsaw Square Renamed for Ronald Reagan
WARSAW, Poland (AP) — About 100 prominent Poles inaugurated a committee Sunday to rename a central Warsaw square for Ronald Reagan to honor the former president for his contribution in defeating communism. "Reagan was the main author of the victory of the free world over the Evil Empire,'' said Solidarity Chairman Marian Krzaklewski in a letter accepting honorary patronage over the committee. Although Reagan has never been to Poland, Krzaklewski said the president was a great friend of Poles and had helped Solidarity in its struggle against the communist regime in the 1980s. The Committee to Commemorate President Ronald ... -

GOP UNAWARE OF GROWING REBELLION
GOP UNAWARE OF GROWING REBELLION Ken David Athens(al) 7/4/99 Dr Max Boone, of Athens, in his letter to "The News-Courier" editor last week expressed his frustration with the Republican Party's lack of committment to finding, and presenting, a candidate devoted to pro-life principals. If Dr. Boone expects the GOP to suddenly develop a principaled stand on anything, he may be sadly disappointed. In 1994 Republicans swept the Democrats from power in Congress, winning control of both the House and the Senate. The GOP won control of Congress because they offered a principaled, realistic, conservative alternative to Bill Clinton.... Voters believed ... -

U.N. has no business overseeing our treasures
WHAT do the Statue of Liberty, Independence Hall, Jefferson's Monticello and Yellowstone National Park have in common? Each of these national treasures now is regulated according to the dictates of foreign bureaucrats rather than according to the will of the American people. That's because each of these sites has been designated as an U.N. World Heritage Site. A U.N.

With the signing of the 1972 World Heritage Treaty, which established the U.N. World Heritage ... -
Political Correctness a Deadly Game
Political Correctness a Deadly Game By Semper Fidelis Economic Marxism is and has been a dismal failure in history and in the present. One only has to look at socialist economies throughout the world to bare that fact out. Failing in their attempt to socialize industry, socialists have moved to the cultural front. Social Marxism is a fatally serious game that is becoming deeply entrenched in our American culture: you can see it on television; hear it from your friends; read it in your newspapers; and you can sense it at your work. It is Political Correctness. George Orwell once ... -
