More Onion than the Onion, from the Washington Times:

The Bush administration is scrapping plans to sponsor a major global health and reproductive rights conference that features liberal advocacy groups, including several pro-choice organizations and MoveOn.org, which is spending millions of dollars on negative ads to defeat President Bush. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) will withdraw its support today, according to a senior government official... HHS spokesman Bill Pierce said, "After careful review, we determined that we were not going to fund this conference due to concerns we had about federal funds being used for lobby purposes."
