Keyes'
booth in the exhibit hall. |
Alan
Keyes began his speech by emphatically stating, "Bill Clinton is a
liar."
He said the evidence of Clinton's wrongdoing is clear, and he called
for
Clinton's removal from office. On the subject of forgiveness, Keyes
noted
that in the Bible, God forgave David, but that David suffered severely
for his sin. Keyes then turned to abortion. "The partial-birth abortion
vote today--the vote of the Senate not to override his veto--is a
sordid
scandal as great as the scandal in the White House," he stated. Toward
the close, Keyes challenged the audience to "...work for leaders who
stand
for principle, and vote for leaders who stand for principle." "No more
excuses. No more expediency. No more calculation," he declared.
