My sister just texted me to ask if Obama had violated the Logan Act – a law that forbids unauthorized citizens from negotiating with foreign governments. This apparently is the I’m sure this question is a result of this story by the infamous Amir Taheri. Even Jonah Goldberg of the National Review in his post on the matter concedes:
If memory serves, Taheri hasn’t always panned out…
This I suppose is Goldberg’s way of saying that he will fan the flames if it hurts Obama whether Taheri’s “reporting” is true or not. Most famously, Taheri recently claimed that the government of Iran was forcing Jews to wear yellow stars a la Nazi Germany. He refused to retract the story although the publisher of the story later issued an apology.
I don’t see an official response from the campaign yet on this issue, but I will post it as soon as I get it.
I’m sure it’s forthcoming as the McCain camp has issued an official response fanning these flames – saying that even the possibility that Obama may have violated the Logan act was “unprecedented.” Of course, McCain has been accused in the past of violating the Logan Act on a number of occasions – with regards to Georgia and Columbia; and the right has accused Nancy Pelosi of violating the Logan Act as well.

It’s my belief that mesothelioma is usually the most deadly cancer. It has unusual qualities. The more I actually look at it a lot more I am certain it does not react like a true solid cells cancer. If mesothelioma is actually a rogue viral infection, then there is the prospects for developing a vaccine and offering vaccination for asbestos open people who are vulnerable to high risk connected with developing long term asbestos relevant malignancies. Thanks for giving your ideas on this important ailment.

Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Firefox. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed soon.

One thing I’d like to say is the fact that car insurance cancellation is a horrible experience so if you’re doing the correct things being a driver you will not get one. Some people do get the notice that they have been officially dropped by their particular insurance company and several have to struggle to get further insurance after a cancellation. Low-cost auto insurance rates are usually hard to get after having a cancellation. Having the main reasons for auto insurance cancellation can help individuals prevent burning off one of the most crucial privileges offered. Thanks for the concepts shared by your blog.
