WASHINGTON
Clinton sees conspiracy
Bill Clinton says a vast, right-wing conspiracy that once targeted him is now focusing on President Barack Obama. The ex-president made the comment when he was asked about one of the signature moments of the Monica Lewinsky affair over a decade ago. Back then, first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton used the term ''vast, right-wing conspiracy'' to describe her husband's political enemies. Bill Clinton was asked on NBC's Meet the Press whether the conspiracy is still there. He replied: ''You bet. Sure it is. It's not as strong as it was because America has changed demographically. But it's as virulent as it was.''
Gates against deadlines
Defense Secretary Robert Gates says it's a mistake to set a deadline to end American military action in Afghanistan, as some liberals have sought, and that a defeat would be disastrous for the U.S. Gates said the Islamic extremist Taliban and al-Qaida would perceive an early pullout as a victory over the United States. Gates spoke in an interview broadcast Sunday on CNN's State of the Union.

Drug reactions in kids
More than half a million U.S. children yearly have bad reactions or side effects from widely used medicines that require medical treatment and sometimes hospitalization, new research shows. Children younger than age 5 are most commonly affected. Penicillin and other prescription antibiotics are among drugs causing the most problems, including rashes, stomach aches and diarrhea. The study appears in October's Pediatrics.
WILMORE, PA.
Marriage papers not filed
A western Pennsylvania couple still plan to celebrate their 49th wedding anniversary next month even though they recently learned their marriage paperwork was never filed. Frank and Betty Skrout were married Oct. 6, 1960, at a Catholic church in Wilmore, where they still live. They learned of the paperwork problem when she recently applied for pension benefits and was told she was still listed as single.
