OK I know back in 1915 the Ottoman empire (who ruled Turkey at the time) did kill a lot of Armenians and it probably was genocide. But the Ottoman empire was dissolved after the end of WW1. The government presently running Turkey is totally different.
What is next we pass a resolution condeming Germany for killing Jews or the Japanese for the Battan death march?
Why would they pass a resolution condemming something that happened nine decades ago, now? If it was that important to condem the act then shouldn't it have already been done? I know the Democrat party had to have known about it before now. I know they didn't just recieve a flash over-ride memo from the State Department informing them of what happened in 1915.
Is it any wonder Congress has an 11% approval rating.

Turkey is a major access point in the war with Iraq. They are hopin by getting us kicked out of Turkey it will be a way to end the war.
The only problem with that logic is that the war then will be here.

They want to embarrass the administration.

There are millions of us who agree with this resolution world wide. Its just that it was done at a time that is most inopportune in the war against Islamo Fascism.

Because the Democrats want more turmoil for our troops in the Mideast. Now that we seem to be winning, that isn't too good for them. They want to make sure Turkey doesn't allow our troops to use their airstrips for supplies and other flights.

THEY WILL STOP AT NOTHING WHEN IT COMES TO HURTING THE MILITARY, G.W. BUSH, BY TRYING TO FORCE END TO THE WAR. THEY ARE TO MINDLESS TO SEE WE ARE WINNING AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR US TO WIN.
