Mr. President, it is time for action. The obvious focus on Iraq in particular and the Middle East in general should not preclude a sense of urgency in the case of Eric Volz. It would be absolutely unconscionable if something happened to Mr. Volz while our government merely sat by. We have an American citizen being held illegally. I concur with the above comments that a demand for his release should come from the highest levels of our government. Calling back our ambassador if necessary? Absolutely. Show us that every human life, every American citizen, matters.
