Asking the candidates a question about the Global Gag Order


How do I address a question to the candidates? I would like to know the candidates take on the Global Gag Order. What is the Global Gag order, you may ask. Signing it was the first official act made by Bush on his first working day in office, January, 2000. What it did was cut off US funding for International Planned Parenthood.

“Save the babies of the world” and all of that BS. NO, more like ensuring international corporations a never ending supply of cheap labor. Keep in mind,this was his FIRST official act.

I would like to hear our candidates state that he/she intends to rescind the Global Gag Order early in his/her presidency. How many babies have been born in world during the past 7 years who are now in or about to be enmeshed in some form of slave labor or sex trade?

1. Have you checked their web sites?
I think you will find that all the Dems oppose it.
