higher in ranking than the Bronze Star and the Purple
Heart, but lower than the Silver Star.Panetta said the new medal, for
only a small number of service men and women, reflected battlefield contributions
in a world of changing warfare. He said that remotely piloted aircraft
and cyber systems have changed the way that wars are fought and
can change the course of a conflict from afar.But the Veterans of
Foreign Wars and other groups sent a letter to President Obama in
March, asking him to keep the medal ranked below the Purple Heart,
which is awarded for combat injuries. Critics said the ranking was an
injustice to those troops who risked their lives in battle.The right decision
was made, the VFW said Monday. This decision will clearly keep medals
that can only be earned in combat in their high order of
precedence, while providing proper recognition to all who support our war-fighters
regardless of their distance from the fight.The American Legion's national
commander, James E. Koutz, said Hagel's decision keeps the evolving roles
of military combat in proper perspective."Cyber and drone warfare have become
part of the equation for 21st-century combat, and those who fight such
battles with distinction certainly deserve to be recognized," Koutz said
in a statement. "But the American Legion still believes there's a fundamental
difference between those who fight remotely, or via computer, and those
fighting against an enemy who is trying t
A federal judge Monday denied an emergency motion for relief filed by
a Guantanamo Bay prisoner on a hunger strike, despite pleas from the
man's lawyer who says his client is dying.U.S. District Judge Thomas Hogan
ruled Monday that he didn't have jurisdiction over the case filed by
Yemeni prisoner Musaab al-Madhwani. Hogan pointed to a provision of the
Military Commissions Act which bars judicial review of claims made by detained
enemy combatants regarding their conditions of confinement.The prisoner
and others in the hunger strike originally claimed that they were being
denied drinking water and that temperatures in the prison had been kept
at "extremely frigid" levels -- which the government denied. But the claim
was expanded to include the allegation that Guantanamo officials had shown
"deliberate indifference" to the prisoners' serious medical needs.Although
the case was technically about just one detainee, it was clearly about
the continued use of Guantanamo to house terrorism suspects, despite President
Barack Obama's promise to close the prison. When one of al-Madhwani's lawyers,
Darold Killmer, mentioned the alleged mistreatment of other detainees, Hogan
responded, "This is not a class-action."At the end of the roughly one-hour
hearing, Hogan noted that al-Madhwani voluntarily participated in the hunger
strike, adding that the prisoner "self-manufactured" his health situation.Earlier,
Killmer, told the judge, "Mr. al-Madhwani is d

could not support any tax cuts in the current legislative session if
the bill doesn't pass.The Senate immediately adjourned without taking up
any bill after the House vote. Senate President Michael Lamoureux said other
pending issues, including a tax cut package and the proposed budget for
the year, were paused while lawmakers consider the private option."I think
it puts everything on hold, and probably not much of a chance
of wrapping up by Friday at this point," said Lamoureux, R-Russellville.Arkansas
is deciding whether to enact an alternative to the Medicaid expansion that
was once required under the federal health care law but is now
a choice left up to individual states after last year's Supreme Court
ruling.The proposal was a compromise reached between Republican legislative
leaders and Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe as an alternative to expanding Medicaid
enrollment. Under the bill, Arkansas would take the federal Medicaid funds
it would have received to expand the program and instead use that
money to purchase private insurance for 250,000 residents who make up to
138 percent of the poverty line, which amounts to $15,415 per year.U.S.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has said the state's
plan was consistent with Medicaid's requirements, but in a letter to Beebe
this month she stopped short of giving final approval.Some Republican support
for the "private option" proposal is also linked
President Obama said Monday that officials do not know who is behind
the attack on the Boston Marathon, but vowed that those responsible will
"feel the full weight of justice."The president assured that the administration
is mobilizing its "full resources" to help investigate and provide security."The
American people will say a prayer for Boston tonight," Obama said.The president
addressed the nation from the White House briefing room just hours after
the explosion.Officials tell Fox News that Obama has been in touch with
Massachusetts officials regarding the fatal attack and has directed his
administration to provide "whatever assistance is necessary."Reflecting
the very preliminary stage of the investigation, Obama said authorities
do not know who was behind the explosion."We still do not know
who did this or why, and people shouldn't jump to conclusions before
we have all the facts," he said. "But make no mistake, we
will get to the bottom of this. ... We will find out
who did this, and we will hold them accountable."A White House official
said the president called Boston Mayor Tom Menino and Massachusetts Gov.
Deval Patrick earlier Monday to "express his concern for those who were
injured and to make clear that his administration is ready to provide
needed support as they respond to the incident."Obama was briefed by Homeland
Security adviser Lisa Monaco and other members of his senior staff Monday
afternoon, as well as by FBI Direc
