5. America's Obligations to Protect the Iranian Opposition
by Raymond Tanter During the 2003 Iraq invasion, U.S. forces bombed and then disarmed members of the MEK -- Mujahedeen-e Khalq -- an Iranian opposition group that had been given refuge in Iraq. Now under U.S. protection in Camp Ashraf in Iraq, MEK members face a bleak future if U.S. forces hand over control of the base to the Iraqi government or withdraw precipitously from Iraq. The U.S. government has obligations under the Geneva Conventions and international humanitarian law refugees cannot be dispersed to a country where they would face persecution -- to protect the MEK. 
4. Let the Energy Buffalo Run Free
by Ted Nugent We've got plenty of energy in America. What we don't have are statesmen willing to let the free market here capture it, process it and sell it.

This is not merely my opinion, mind you, but the stated conclusion of John M. Reich, the Director of the federal Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), who publicly declared Friday that the run was triggered in large part because "The senator made comments in his letter questioning the viability of the institution." Adding, "When a member of the United States Senate makes such a statement, it frightens depositors."
1. Al Gore, International Man of Madness
by Christopher C. Horner Australian doctors have published in a medical journal the case of a 17-year old held for observation, suffering the first observed case of "climate change delusion phenomenon" (CCD). It seems that he suffered from fears that "due to climate change, his own water consumption could lead to days to the deaths of millions of people through exhaustion of water supplies." This particular product of modern education techniques "was referred to the inpatient psychiatric unit at Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne with an eight-month history of depressed mood...He also...had visions of apocalyptic events." Where ever would he get such an idea?
