POPSHere We Go Again This somewhat disappointing position by Obama may be simple politics or it may be a sign of increasing involvement by religious organizations in government. Already we've seen the problems this can cause, mainly in the realm of churches to discriminate according to religion. If the rumors are true, churches will be able to discriminate in hiring if "certain conditions are met". I can't help but wonder if this is a ploy to garner the "evangelical" vote. Of course this still doesn't make McCain any more disirrable as a candidate.

POPSFinally! We hear so much about alternative energy sources and reducing fuel consumption but exceedingly little on energy traders who some sources say are responsible for up to 50% of the fuel price we pay here in the US. Unlike McCain's silly offshore solution this tactic has the best chance of immediately reducing the cost of fuel.

POPSSC: Land of Gawd? Are these folks so brain dead that they just don't get it? Evidently not. They keep trying to inject their own particular superstition into government and they keep failing. Reminds me of the adage of the crazy person persisting in the same activity and expecting differing results.

POPSMushroom Clouds A-Popping Is the Republican romance with fear ending? It's served them well for seven years now. Could we be seeing a turn to a more rational and sane policy? They're going to attempt to use it during the coming election. Are we going to sit by and let them?

POPSJohn "Christ" McCain? Showing the eloquence demanded by the head of the Georgia state GOP, Sue Everhard, demonstats the strange reasoning of religious politicians. She makes the direct comparison of McCain to Jesus Christ and then denies making this comparison immediately afterwards. Oh well. :-(

POPSBush is an Idiot Bush, never one to rely on diplomacy when bombs will do the trick, opens his mouth again and nonsense spews out. What a loser.

POPSSally Kern Bigotry Here she is damned by her own words. What she says is not new. Bigots like her have been saying this for a long time. What is new is that now we can cast their words into the light of day for all to see. And this person is an elected official! Shame on you Oklahoma.

POPSScience Ignorance Blessed in Oklahoma Although this legislation has not made it through to law the very idea that it was put forth at all is surprising. I feel sorry for rational Oklahomans who must endure this humiliation.

POPSBush's Legacy? Torture I have nothing but contempt for this man. In fact, I actually have serious doubts concerning his sanity. His reign can't be over soon enough.

POPSLaw Abiding Immigrants Another straw man that ultra nationalists love to offer shows that it has no legs. With much of present day conservatism based on fear manipulation of the population this study indicates what a little sunshine can do to rank prejudice and bigotry.

POPSPredictable Huckabee Win Frankly, I'm not surprised in the least. The state that tried to set back the teaching of biology 150 years has given a rousing endorsement to the most biblical candidate in quite a while. How does commander and preacher sound? The inauguration should be fun. I'm all set to watch Dino, the Jesus Horse, leading the parade down Pennsylvania Ave.

POPSUh, Who Cares What Religion Obama Is? Evidently this "issue" has captured the imagination of religious people around the US. Maybe they're not familiar with Article VI of the Constitution. The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States. The popular view today would seem to be that this article was simply a "suggestion".

POPSFacts Don't Impress Bush What an ignorant, biased, bigoted, ideologue. Do you people still want to elect a President that you could sit down and "have a beer with"?

POPSFox Noise - News You Can Ignore Considering the extraordinary inept vetting that Faux News uses, this story comes as no surprise. Is it any wonder that the least informed are viewers of this fake news channel?

POPSHmm, Astrology or Astronomy? I seem to recall a certain president mouthing these same sentiments. I suspect history may show him to be at least one of the most ignorant people to hold such important office.

POPSIf it quacks... This should bring a chuckle or two, depending on the darkness of your sense of humor.

POPSToo Little - Too Late Chemical prohibition works as well as alchohol prohibition. /addiction it's a medical, not a criminal problem. It becomes criminal because of the profit motive because it's illegal.

POPSRomney's Hornets Nest Another commentator speaks up about the disastrous attempt by Romney to make dogma the National mantra. Is there a journalistic shift taking place? Are people waking from their 6 year slumber aboard Bush's Ark? Are they finally seeing the actual harm that this quasi-theocratic administration has wrought? Is there hope?

POPSNo Cold War - Maybe Just a Chilly War Do Russians "require" a strong tsar in much the same way that the USA requires a Godly President? Are national politics of both countries more dependent on the popular perception than on factual reasoning? Recent events in both countries might suggest this is so.

POPSHillary's a "Funny Girl" Why this is such news amazes me. Aside from the monetary rewards to Clinton and Obama I find it incredible that any credence whatsoever need be given to the backing of two private individuals. But that is the draw of celebrity in the US theses days.

POPSChamber of Commerce Begs for Help While not a humorous topic I couldn't help flashing on the furrowed brows within the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce as they wrestle how to work this into their next tourist promotion.

POPSDeaf/Dumb/Blind President Perino needs to retake a basic math class. She refers to appeasement of radical groups; yeah, like 66% of the country has turned radical. And mouth-breathers still buy this crap.

POPSRescuing Our Constitution The article is too long to give it a really meaningful clip here. Link to the full article to appreciate and put into perspective the shenanigans of the Bush Crime Family.

POPSClueless in Palm Beach If it wasn't such a serious topic this clip could be seen as funny because it completely misses the mark. It seems that our present Congress just doesn't get it. This is not about politics. This is not partisan. This is one man attempting to do his job of protecting the Constitution of the United States against enemies both foreign and domestic. Why they continue in attacking Kucinich (often in the most childish ways) or why they continue to ignore the reality that the majority of the citizens back impeachment remains a mystery .

POPSBush/Cheney Get Free Pass on Torture I would imagine both Bush and Cheney are breathing a sigh of relief after have Mukasey confirmed as AG. Contrary to popular opinion his choice as AG has nothing to do with restoring the Justice Department but everything to do with saving the Marquis de Sade duo in the White House from criminal prosecution and imprisonment down the road.

POPSPolitics Trumps Democracy I find the last paragraph of this clip most puzzling. The writer claims that the Dems made a choice between their "liberal base" and a broader electorate. Don't these people realize that a majority of the citizens of the US favor an impeachment of Bush/Cheney? Just how myopic does Washington have to become before they reach for their glasses?

POPSTheocracy? Is This Good for America? Click on the link and view the embedded video to gain an awareness of the total wackiness of these people. Make no mistake about it, these people are intent on making this a Christian Nation. And if your "brand" of Christianity doesn't conform with what they deem appropriate you're as much on the outside as any non-believer. Maybe those depicted in the video are not of the Fred Phelps ilk, they are much more of a danger because of their numbers and organizational influence in politics. You've been warned!
