X December 1, 1994 m uwi ^nW30B-i^j3Aii-s» Issues remain Thought abortion was off the agenda? It's back. School Prayer? It's back. Arts funding? A foreign policy obsessed with abortion? They're back. Some even older issues have popped up again. Orphanages? They're back, too. With the rise to power ofthe Republicans, all the old social issues have returned, alongside a host of unsavory characters. Take Pat Robertson. The fact that mainstream Republicans consort with him is a scary sign of exactly how far right political debate is these days. Robertson argues that sex education teaches sex with animals, that the Council on Foreign Affairs is a conspiracy to install a socialist world government, and that feminism turns women into clnTd-killing socialist lesbian witches. Robertson wields great power in the Repub lican party; his Christian Coalition provides about sixty percent of Republican local delegates. The Republicans are in the grip of extremists; they willbe forced to go with their inclination to regressive social policy. Already Newt Gingrich is talking about orphanages. He won't support day care, but he wants to take children from their parents and force them into orphanages. Is that what Americans really support? Newt has proposed an amendment pushing school prayer. Doesn't our government have better things to do than force us to pray? And why should our government decide who prays, and when? Also, does anybody pretend that the result wouldn't be discrimination against children of non- Christian religions? Even student loans will take a beating; the Republicans promised before the election to chop loan programs. Reducing them is a way to cut the deficit, and the Republicans will cut them to pay for a bigger mihtary and a host of tax cuts we can't afford. Pity that we'll finish up with negligible student aid and a growing deficit anyway. The victory for the Republicans will do great damage to the country; Perspective the radicalism we see in Gingrich, Helms, and Gramm will take theparty far from the center. The Republicans now in office are far more radical than the ones The roots of poverty before them; the Republican party is more radical these days and voters were not as much looking at positions as throwing (Democratic) bums By Scott L.
