add to cart   close window

The article presents information on various political developments in the U.S. U.S. President, Bill Clinton is preparing to lift the ban on lesbian and gays in military. Although Clinton is firm in his intention to sign an anti-discrimination order within a day or two of his inauguration, he told gay right advisers that he would not issue an implementation order to go with it. Clinton could simply promulgate his order and instruct the U.S. Pentagon to carry it out. Execution will be left to a top level commission which will study such matters as how to keep gay eyes straight in the shower room and other conundrums of the new sexual culture.
