Minority Whip Roy Blunt returned to his old seat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee this week just in time to vote against a controversial Armenian genocide resolution.
The death of a Republican House member left a vacancy on the committee, and Blunt quickly filled the slot in order to support the Bush administration's stand against an effort to call the slaughter of Armenians by Ottoman Turks a genocide.
A House panel approved the "genocide resolution" 27-21, with Blunt voting against it.
Blunt's move to the committee is temporary until Republican leaders select a permanent member.

Let's not forget to mention that Ottoman Turks who were Moslem, did the killing, then all the facts will be out!
