By Diane M. Grassi China Sole Manufacturer Of Material For U.S. Missiles During this week's U.S. visit of China President, Hu Jintao, and his meetings with President Bush, it would be apropos to revisit a deal finalized in 2004, which leaves the U.S. totally dependent upon China for key rare earth metals and their production necessary in the manufacture of the most crucial of U.S. military warfare.

By Doug Thompson The Decider-in-chief: A Drunk With Power I'm having a hard time keeping up with all of George W. Bush's titles...Now he's got a new, self-indulgent title. " I'm the decider, and I decide what is best, " Bush declared in a sort-of-stirring defense of embattled defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld. Decider-in-chief? A key statement to the arrogance that is George W. Bush.

By GPS Tracking With Cell Phones Now Availabe For $9.99/mo. - Watch Out Kids! Mom's Watching Last week, Sprint Nextel Corp. introduced a new service called Family Locator that lets parents track their kids' whereabouts, using the GPS capabilities in each child's cellphone. For $9.99 a month, you can get a fix on your little ones' locations as long as they are on your Sprint account and carry one of the 30 Sprint or Nextel phones that allow this monitoring. As demonstrated by a Sprint publicist yesterday, the service was deceptively easy to use . . . considering that the whole idea would have been science-fiction fodder a decade ago. By Bernstein: Senate Hearings On Bush, Now Should Republicans on the Hill take the high road and save themselves come November? There was understandable reluctance in the Congress to begin a serious investigation of the Nixon presidency. Then there came a time when it was unavoidable. That time in the Bush presidency has arrived. By Oh The Shame Of It All It's with a certain perverse admiration that I note that the Republican National Committee is spearheading an advertising campaign of such epic dishonesty that its chairman, Ken Mehlman, has for now secured the title " Chief Sinverguenza of the GOP " despite the current ferocious competition for that honor. By Medicare Drug Enrollment Has Holes - 7 To 14 Million May Be Penalized By Bush Medicare Lies The Bush administration estimates that about 7 million eligible Medicare recipients have not signed up for drug coverage. Some outside groups, such as the Kaiser Family Foundation and Avalere Health, a health care research company, put the figure at 14 million. Most beneficiaries currently eligible for the plan will face higher costs if they sign up after the May 15 deadline. Premiums will rise by 1% a month after then. By Fishing Dead Zone Linked To Farm Subsidies Louisiana's fishing industry faces an uncertain future after the pounding it took last hurricane season, but fishers know one thing is certain: Sometime this summer, a lifeless expanse of water about the size of Connecticut -- maybe a little bigger, maybe a little smaller -- will form off the state's coast. By China's Oil Needs Are High On U.S. Agenda The competition for access to oil is emerging high on the agenda for President Hu Jintao's visit to the White House this week. President Bush has called China's growing demand for oil one reason for rising prices, and has warned Beijing against trying to " lock up " global supplies. With crude oil selling for more than $70 a barrel and American motorists paying $3 a gallon for gasoline, American officials say the subject cannot be avoided at Thursday's meeting in the Oval Office, as it was sidestepped when Mr. Bush visited Beijing last fall. Is Wimp-In-Chief afraid the newest Superpower? By Taking On Terrorism In June 2001, a 41-year-old man claiming to be a former Iranian intelligence agent said he walked into the U.S. Embassy in Baku, Azerbaijan, to warn the CIA that Iran was working with al-Qaida to plan an attack. He said six people trained as pilots had just left Iran. And he claimed he saw scale models of the World Trade Center, the White House and the Pentagon in a high-level ministry building. The CIA, as the story goes, didn't buy his tale, and today relatively little is known of this walk-in Iranian defector or the meeting that supposedly took place that summer day, only months before the Sept. 11 attacks. But, fact or fiction, it's a mystery that a local law firm, partnering with 10 other firms across the country, believes is worth spending nearly a $1 million to unravel. By Putting The Cat Back In The Bag Reclassifying documents at the National Archives not only violates its mission, it is also antithetical to the natural flow of information in an open society.
