supporters of the treaty, including Colin Powell and James Baker, to
counter conservative Republican opposition from people like Helms,
Caspar Weinberger, and Donald Rumsfeld.I was surprised at the
conservative opposition, since all our military leaders strongly
supported the CWC, but it reflected the right��s deep 'Streetscape oil

(http://www.oilpaintingscn.com/streetscape-oil-painting-877.html),skepticism
about international cooperation in general and its desire to maintain
maximum freedom of action now that the United States was the world��s
only superpower. Near the end of 'Sunflower oil painting'

month, I reached an agreement with Senator Lott to add some language
that he felt strengthened the treaty.
Finally, with Lott��s support, the CWC was ratified, 74?C26.

had suffered in the sarin gas attack. On the home front, I named Sandy
Thurman of Atlanta, one of America��s foremost AIDS advocates, to head
the Office of National AIDS P
and nineteen others for AIDS-related conditions, and the death rate was
going down in America. Still, we were a long way from a vaccine or a
cure, and the problem had exploded in Africa, where we weren��t doing
enough. Thurman was bright, energetic, and forceful; I knshe would keep
us all on our toes. On the last day of April, Hillary and I made public

of them twice to get a feel for the academic and social life of each
institution. Given her excellent grades and test scores, she had
beenaccepted by all of them, and Hillary had hoped she would stay
closer to home. I always suspected Chelsea would like to get far away
from Washington. I just wanted her to go to a school where she would
learn a lot, make good friends, and enjoy herself. But her mother and
House, going to her school and ballet events, and getting to know her
friends and their parhad been a joy, repeatedly reminding us, no matter
what else was going on, of what a blessinour daughter was. Economic

agreement with Speaker Gingrich and Senator Lott and the congressional
negotiators for both parties.Tom Daschle also announced his support for
the agreement; Dick Gephardt did not, but I wahoping he would come
around once he had a chance to review it. The deal was much emake this
time because economic growth had brought unemployment below 5 percent

children, the largest expansion since the passage of Medicaid in the
1960s; contained the largest increase in education spending in thirty
years; gave more incentives to businesses to hire welfare recipients;
restored health benefits to disabled legal immigrants; funded the
cleanup of five hundred more toxic waste sites; and provided tax relief
close to amount I had recommended.
