Never mind the constitution, our existing laws and culture of acceptance. A cry is going up. I see it on television, hear it on the radio and read about it everywhere. I have to say I'm horrified. American muslims contribute so much to this country. They are engineers, nurses, cab drivers, small business owners, doctors, civil servents and my neighbors. Many came here to escape religous persecution. I shudder to think how they feel when they hear the angry voices on the radio, calls racial and religous profiling at the airport. My bias is revealed, but I welcome your opinion especially those that do't share mine.

It appears to be a protest accussing the remaining government of not resigning. Like if half the democrates resigned and then the democrats protested that the government resign.

They say that the government is guilty of meeting with other heads of state? This seems like a responsibility of a state not so much a choice.

Is there something I don't understand?

The Democrats have begun it seems their havoc, forcing the resignation of a truly outstanding Statesman with "Street Smarts" and international savy and an articulate representative of true American Values not the San Francisco "Nancy Pelosi" variety ... and now, he is gone !

I have followed this man's career as our Ambassador and the Liberal Left should be ashamed:

Ambassador Bolton led the successful negotiations that resulted in unanimous Security Council resolutions regarding North Korea's military and nuclear activities.

He built consensus among our allies on the need for Iran to suspend the enrichment and reprocessing of uranium.
His efforts to promote the cause of peace in Darfur
resulted in a peacekeeping commitment by the United Nations.

He made the case for United Nations reform because he cares about the institution, and wants it to become more credible and effective and the Lieberal Democrats? They oust him.

Is this is a foretaste of thier agenda ..?
