Boren Opposes Pork Barrel Bill in Oklahoma

Governor David Boren opposes funding snake hunts and gospel singings, with House Speaker Bill Willis and Senate leader Gene Howard wavering. If Townsend succeeds and Boren vetoes, the program faces elimination via line item veto, while Angolan mercenary captives Gearhart and Acker face trial under an Angolan court system and international jury amid U.S. diplomatic limits.
