POPSWho is the bad man - Bush or Sadam? Bush is responsible for far more deaths than Sadam -- under Sadam factions lived together in relative peace -- the country was not war ravaged and it was not a center for terrorists. So who is the BAD MAN?

POPSWaterboarding is torture....Period Ever read 1984? Double speak and New Speak seem to have come to reality and with domestic spying *blinks* well G. Orwell would find his novel parallels frightening. What next? The constitution is not being followed, international law broken, treaties trounced, what next -- oh yea Iran.

POPSBush and the Enron Connection Here you go, another look at how Bush and Republicans can lie, steal, cheat, rob, trash the constitution, torture, twist justice and thumb their noses at the American public. A democrat takes a penny from the free penny tray and there is an independent prosecutor to hound them -- but the Republicans can openly flaunt the law -- scream national security and do what ever they want. Wake up America -- get out your old tar and feathers, we got some work to do.

POPSUSA built on backbone of terrorism as defined by USA now It continues to be absolutely remarkable how a country built on revolution, using an insurgency to wage warfare against the sovereign legal government, can turn about and start calling the same in modern times, evil and terrorists. One man's terrorist is another man's hero or patriot. One declares war on a nation, not a concept or ideal. Something is gravely wrong with the direction of this United States of America. We are not holding to our constitution, we can just toss it out in the name of national security? Hog Wash! HOG WASH! What have we become? I don't want to look in the national mirror.

POPSBush throws tantrum - acts like spoiled child Hand pick someone who will do you bidding and have congress reject them -- what do you do? You throw a fit, act like a spoiled child, call everyone unpatriotic that opposed you and do it in front of a hand picked group of reporters. Time to call your Bluff Mr. Bush, will the American people continue to sit by and let you become the dictator you appear to be? The attorney general is the office and has the power to go after the president -- this of course is why Bush want his puppet in the office. The attorney general is not a political seat, it is the head of the US justice department who work for the people -- to protect the people - not the president. The people need some protecting against the Bush administration.

POPSUSA calls for impeachment of Bush and Cheney If Kucinich removes Bush by impeachment, he must also remove Cheney -- Cheney would become president of Bush is removed. So who would be president? UMMMM Nancy Pelosi is next in line after Cheney. The USA poll numbers are far higher for removal of Bush and Cheney than polls for removal of Nixon. Nancy Pelosi said for the the democrats to concentrate on doing things instead of going after Bush and Cheney, yet, Bush and Cheney have prevented almost all democrat congress moves to make change. I suppose it is time to do something drastic and show Mr. Bush and Cheney that congress has teeth.

POPSIraq war opposition at record high I was against the war from the start. My country acting like the country that invaded Poland in WWII did not sit well with me. We have been given a reason for the war -- WMD and that was false. We have been diverted into the argument that Iraq was a terrorist state -- again proved false We have been pushed into the argument that we are liberating the Iraq people from Sadam -- um, there are bad leaders all over the world, why this one? Every argument given has failed to hold water -- the USA is engaging in imperialism -- and against international law. The numbers of people killed far far exceed the numbers for the "bad man Sadam" who was convicted of war crimes, not by an international court but by his enemies in Iraq. I hope there will be a time when Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney are tried in an international court for war crimes -- after the American people get through with them for violating the US Constitution.

POPSBush Spying, Trashes Constitution, Establishes Impearal Rule Bush yells, trust me trust me, yet again and again he proves he is untrustworthy. The constitution was set up to protect the American people from a dictator yet the Emperor is here. Time to stop the Emperor - Time to take back our country and reestablish the constitution as supreme law of the land.

POPSScott McClellan reveals that Bush, Cheney, were involved in CIA operative ID leak Well well well, surprise surprise surprise -- hands up if this is a surprise to you. I suppose the only surprise is someone finally telling about it. I wonder if this will reopen the indictment process. What we really don't know yet is what the pre 911 Bush was talking about that is still classified top secret in his energy talks with Enron prior to the great fall. Sure would like to know what Enron was in on that is so TOP SECRET -- don't you?

POPSRepublican Economic Mantra Soils US Citizans Yes the moral decay is very evident in the Republican stand and push. What, under Regan was called the Trickle Down Effect is really the Micturition Effect (look up the word - Grin). The Republicans continue to extol the virtues of the Micturition Effect. Frankly I am tired of those above doing that on me.

POPSThe Hummer vs the Prius - a statement Not every car is as economical on gas as the Prius but should anyone be making and selling cars rated at 14 - 16 MPG and realistically seeing 9 mpg be made in this day and age? I think it is just wrong. Enjoy!

POPSWhy Teachers Quit Teaching -- A Serious Problem I am a teacher who quit -- this article covers much of my reasons, not all, but i suggest you read the whole thing. Other reasons not covered include government laws for testing -- I equate this to congress passing law that doctors must do brain surgery with an axe and chain saw and nothing else. The over sized administration, money sucking top heavy entity of the public school that does nothing but eat money. The idea that the school is there to mix children in some sort of social soup instead of educate them -- which leads to hemorrhaging money in bus programs. There are other problems with public schools.

POPSHouse hearings have harsh words for spying in China but none for doing same in USA There were harsh words for the US tech firms aimed at their China internet spying activity yet -- unbelievably not one word about the companies doing the same in the USA to our own people in Bush's domestic spy program. YES the cat is out of the bag - splitters were installed by the internet companies in the USA and the Bush spy program is looking at EVERYTHING -- no warrent, in violation of our constitutional right. This is a high crime against the United States of America. The guarantees in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights was passed to amend the Constitution and define what can and can not be done. These superceed any perceived powers granted to a president by the Constitution and in no way allow in peace or war to do away with these rights.

POPSSaudi Rape outrage videos This video has a lot of great questions and reveals exactly what our president, Mr. Bush, is doing about this and why. YES our Bush is good buddies with the Saudis, we cannot upset them over some girl who go herself raped and is going to be punished for it.

POPSFairies - The girls claim the last photo show real fairies Yes some are fake, perhaps all but years later, in 1978 they still hold that one of the photos is authentic while they admit to producing the others with cutouts. Fake or not, the power of fairies in the imagination is powerful touching the since of wonder in us all.

POPSBush think only "responsible" Attorney General must accept waterboarding ?new standard for confirmation that could not be met by any responsible nominee for attorney general" -- So clearly, Bush is stating that he considers responsible nominees for attorney general to support waterboarding and other torture methods. I want to see an attorney general who will uphold the law and go after Bush for his flagrant breaking of US and international law.
