Did the Resolution Condemning Turkey Create a Constitutional Crisis?
By Frank Salvato
Recently, the House Foreign Affairs Committee, chaired by US Rep. Tom Lantos (D-CA), passed a resolution that recognized the killing of up to 1.5 million Armenians by Ottoman Turks in 1915 as genocide. While the circumstances surrounding the slaughter are disputed, the killings did occur. The larger questions this action presents could very well be as disturbing as the killings themselves. What was there to gain by issuing this non-binding resolution at this moment in time? And, did the issuance of the non-binding resolution usurp the Executive Branch’s authority to establish foreign policy?

I read with interest this morning (on my usual cruise of Internet commentary sites) that Air America afternoon hostess Randi Rhodes was the victim of what was described as a vicious mugging. The attractive Ms. Rhodes lost several teeth and was injured seriously enough to lose work for several days according to reports appearing on the Internet.

Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act
By Joel Himelfarb
With American soldiers fighting deadly terrorist enemies in Iraq and Afghanistan, do we want to amend the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) to introduce new judicial and bureaucratic obstacles to rescuing our troops if they are captured on the battlefield? And, with the American homeland in the crosshairs of international Jihadists, why are House Democrats and the ACLU so determined to make life miserable for telephone companies who have acted patriotically by helping our intelligence agencies monitor people who may be targeting this country?

Bede makes some interesting points in his article, and this would end the immigration/terrorism problem, - the pros and cons of illegal immigration? I don't see any benefit for illegal activity, but also know our country is not going to deport all Muslims and withdraw from the Middle East.
Israel Lobby v. Muslims: The Middle Ground
Terrorism is an immigration problem, not a foreign-policy problem.
By Bede
After reading some recent debates on the Israel Lobby, it made me realize that many people have set up a false dichotomy where one must either be pro-Israel or pro-Muslim; there is no middle ground. There is, however, that large grey area, where one can be skeptical of both, which is probably the most tenable position.

Most of us buy cheap products made in places like China and don’t give it a second thought. I usually don’t think about the purchases I make, but I should. I don’t think that we, as Americans should boycott Chinese made products completely.
