Three Bay Area House members were among nine Democrats who voted against a Republican-sponsored resolution recognizing the importance of Christmas and the Christian faith.

Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, last week introduced House Resolution 847, which states that the House recognizes the Christian faith as one of the great religions of the world ... expresses continued support for Christians

House Resolution 635, which passed 376-0 in October, recognizing the Muslim holiday of Ramadan and stating that the House "recognizes the Islamic faith as one of the great religions of the world ... expresses friendship and support for Muslims ... acknowledges the onset of Ramadan

Dr. Ricardo Asch of California was at the center of a human egg and embryo scandal in 1996. In his infertility clinic, he was found to have taken excess eggs from patients and used them for other patients who needed donor eggs. Normally, a patient consents to donate and much paperwork is filled out to document all the details. Some of the egg recipients and all of the donors were unaware of the swaps. There were forty known cases, and the staff says there were likely many others. The scandal became public when staff became suspicious and called in the police.
This left many patients unsure about the paternity of their children. No one knew for sure whose children were really whose.

What responsibilities did the parents have to seek the true paternity of their children? What about cases where parents learned that their child was from another woman? Would they be morally responsible to share custody with the donor? What a wonderful world we live in culd u imagine?

extremely low in tight circles around downtown Denver's skycrapers? It looked like they were practicing their firefighting aerial skills on a city in their B-29 and B-24 airplanes. Who were the pilots and why were they flying only 500 to 800 feet above downtown Denver that day?

GOP Majority Leader John Boehner tried to blame the House Democrat majority: "The fact that this was buried in a bloated, 3,500-page omnibus speaks volumes about the Democrats' unserious approach on border security and illegal immigration," he said. "Gutting the Secure Fence Act will make our borders less secure, but it's consistent with the pattern of behavior we've seen all year from this majority." But it's border state Republicans who've been gunning to undermine the law while the ink was still fresh.

To add insult to injury and homeland insecurity upon homeland insecurity, Congress failed to adopt a ban on federal aid to sanctuary cities that prevent government employees and law enforcement officers from asking about immigration status; voted to stall implementation of stricter ID standards at border crossings; and miraculously found enough money to provide $10 million in "emergency" funding for attorneys of illegal aliens.

Next time you hear a leading presidential candidate try to woo you with his nine-point immigration enforcement plan or his secure ID plan or his Secure Borders platform, point to the Incredible Disappearing Border Fence. Poof! That is what happens to election-season homeland security promises. Why would theirs be any different?

They only agreed to sign off on the 1 yr AMT tax fix if the provision to make up the lost $50 million in taxes was dropped. What was that provision you ask? Closing the loophole for offshore banking. Once again, looking out for Middle America.
