Mrs. Clinton said during her opening statement at the Discussion on the Future Afghan Women's yesterday, "I want to personally and publicly thank the President and Mrs. Bush for demonstrating their strong leadership on this issue and speaking out about the mistreatment of womean and making the case for women in Afghanistan's future."
Rodham Clinton goes on to encourage, "We in Congress can advance that goal by completing work on legislation, legislation introduced by our colleague, SENATOR HUTCHISON [R-TX], that provides educational and healthcare assistance to women in Afghanistan."
Listened live and re-listened to the C-SPAN copy.

Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas), who introduced the legislation with Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.),The House of Representatives unanimously passed the bill today, led by Representative Deborah Pryce (R-Ohio).
"Clearly the efforts by First Lady Laura Bush and the women in Congress to talk about the plight of women and children in Afghanistan have helped shine a spotlight on this situation," Senator Hutchison said. "Now we need to move forward to provide aid to rectify these atrocities."
So why is Hillary taking credit for this? Go figure?

The "Afghan Women and Children Relief Act of 2001" (S. 1573) authorizes the president to provide educational and health care assistance to women and children living in Afghanistan and as refugees in neighboring countries; allows the funds to be used by nongovernmental organizations; and requires the secretary of state to submit a report to Congress describing the condition and state of women and children in Afghanistan. The bill, which was introduced October 25, passed the Senate on November 16. It was cosponsored by all 13 women of the Senate. Where, exactly do they think the Constitution authorizes them to steal my money to do this? When someone announces the Tax Revolt, please ping me.

This must mean we are going to war with the entire Middle East, Africa, South America, China and the rest of the world which doesn't mandate preferences, affirmative action, upward mobility, military equality and otherwise kowtow to the N.O.W. agenda.
