The University of Michigan-Dearborn plans to spend $25,000 for foot-washing stations, making it easier for Muslim students to practice their religion but sparking questions about the separation of church and state.

The university claims the stations are needed to accommodate Muslim students, who must ritually wash their bodies -- including the feet -- up to five times each day before prayers. But critics hit conservative blogs and radio airwaves Monday to argue public money shouldn't cover the cost.

But why shouldn't 2008 be the last time we elect a fixed-term VP? Why shouldn't all candidates for president be asked to explain exactly why the country benefits from an impervious VP and whether they'd support a constitutional amendment to have the VP serve at the pleasure of the president or be subject to a no-confidence vote by 2/3 of the Congress assembled together? This might sound "academic," in the perjorative sense. But we're only a heartbeat away from a Cheney presidency. Think about it.

Most presidential systems get along without a constitutionally entrenched VP who cannot be removed because he loses the confidence of the president, the Congress, or the American people through demonstrated failures in judgment. But if we're stuck with a vice president, why in the world should he/she be impervious to a vote of no confidence by the Congress or, for that matter, dismissal by the president?

Would anyone designing a Constitution suitable for the 21st century maintain the vice presidential system exactly as it is, where a monarchical presidential nominee chooses, more or less arbitrarily, a running mater who may or may not be committed to the candidate's program or even fit to run the country?

There are over 750 terror suspects held in at Guantanamo Bay. As suspects they can be found innocent. So what is our a plan for what to do with those who have spent years locked up in a foreign military prison, eventually tried and found not guilty?

Was Jimmy Carter's preoccupation with human rights and the deescalation of Cold War rhetoric realistic in light of Soviet activities in Afghanistan?

All headlines pointed to Republican candidates distancing themselves from Bush. What will the loyal Bushies do? This says that even people within his own party consider him a failure-mismanaging the war-over spending etc. Is this the end of the neo-con chickenhawk era?

and in all the adverts for it they put a muslim woman in the middle of the union flag. so is the real reason to force more multiculturism on us, or tell us more about how wonderful muslims are realls. why wont they give us st georges day as a national holiday for england. the scots have st andrews day, the welsh st davids, and the irish st patricks, and so they should, but when it comes to england, its got to be british, same as the national anthems, flower of scotland, land of my fathers, etc, but england has god save the queen, she is queen of britain, not just england. we are being suffocated and diluted, what should we do about it as englishmen and women?

It is controlled by money and by highly paid people who are very good at manipulating a gullible and stupid public. There is no way for any real change to occur through our democracy. Is it time for a new American revolution?

I, for one, certainly don't care who you have sex with as long as they are of age and consenting. I do, however, have a problem with bigots who persecute people over stupid crap.
