The House of Representatives is really getting down to business today. They’re condemning Japan (are they our last ally) for insufficient contrition about the use of comfort girls in their imperial era. They’re condemning Canada for clubbing baby seals. I think, regardless of merit, all these kinds of resolutions should be banned. Who cares what the Congress thinks about anything? Pass laws, enforce the law, and leave us alone. They already talk too much. And our executive branch is doing well enough at pissing off our allies without the assistance of the House.
What will it take to get these people to act like adults?
Oh great…now a resolution condemning the bombing of a Jewish Center in Argentina in 1994. How many people do you think are going to vote against that one? Who’s for bombing Jewish Centers?
This is such a waste of time.
Could be worse…
They could be working.

House of Representatives passes a resolution in July 2004 and an Argentine court passes judgment in 2005?
(MSNBC) Nov. 8, 2005 – … Hussein Berro had been identified as the suspected bomber in a resolution passed on July 22, 2004, by the U.S. House of Representatives that urged a solution to the case. The resolution said that Hussein Berro reportedly had been in contact with the Iranian Embassy in Buenos Aires.
Sounds quite familiar to the Hariri bombing… a van imported from Japan and missing evidence.
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."Jeezzzzz. How ’bout condeming GW Bush’s pal former President Carlos Menem (Lebanese descent) for taking 10.000.000$ bribe in that terrorist bombing.
Oh Jeezzzz.! More Al-Qaida Shiite connection. (That’s where I stoped reading the article)
Oh the tri-border area is a drug smuggling place. But rather than a terrorism fund raising I would consider it a car chop-shop place (I have no doubt that some terrorist must have passe through there, but it is a big leap to say that they are fund raising)
Faleomavaega is tying this all into Ahmedinejad’s alleged nuclear ambitions. This country is hopeless.

I’m freaking out waiting for the Marines to land on the shores of the Netherlands, just 5 miles from home.
But I had my joy.
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."Does this mean that August is their afternoon recess?
now they are resolving that the Oregon State University baseball team is teh best.
The UC-Irvine men’s volleyball team is also teh best.
What will it take to get these people to act like adults?
A serious threat to their reelection prospects, what else?
