A little extra on the Armenian Genocide Resolution

Note to Limbaugh, Boehner & Friends: Republicans Pushed Turkish 'Genocide' Resolution in the U.S. House in 2000 and Again in 2005

If The Resolution is a 'Democratic Ploy,' It Sure Was Clever to Have the GOP House Speaker Lead the Way!

ALSO: Recalling FBI Whistleblower Sibel Edmonds's Claim that Hastert Called Off Full House Vote After Possibly Receiving $500k from Turkish Interests, And Additional New Information on Her Gag-Ordered 'States Secrets' Case...

Don't miss it!

We have a lot of Armenians in California, around Fresno in the Central Valley and Glendale in the San Fernando Valley. They have long memories and have been trying to get this resolution passed for a long time. For one reason or another, usually because Turkey is very strategically placed and we need them and don't want to piss them off, it never has until maybe now.

The 'historical mass killings' as Bush so euphemistically describes the Armenian Genocide in a rare calculated instance of not tripping over his own tongue, are very well documented and known.

Why is the House doing this now? Who cares? If not now, then when? Time to call a spade a spade. If it pisses off the Turks and embarrasses the Chimp, so fuckin' what?
