CLINTON GETS THE NEWS MEDIA TO SWOON ONE MORE TIME, BUT THEY'RE SNIFFING VAPORS

President Clinton does it again. The slickest PR president ever gets headlines across the nation by announcing he will give Alzheimer researchers $50 million over the next five years. This is a topic of importance to every American. There are few of us who won't be touched in one way or another by the disease that mainly affects our elderly population.

But a couple of things need to be said. One, $10 million is a paltry amount for such an enormous problem. Two, Congress hasn't appropriated the money yet. Clinton says he thinks they will. Once again, Clinton scores, and there's nothing there except vapor.
