POPSAversive Racism Yeah - you know how all those white people who hated Clintoncare weren't racist back then because Clinton was white. But if you oppose Obamacare or Cap and Tax you are racist now. When will the liberals realize that calling racist means nothing any more?

POPSMore Obama Administration Crazies Then there is the White House energy czar Carol Browner, who served on the environment committee of the Socialist International, the umbrella group for 170 "social democratic, socialist and labor parties" in 55 countries, as reported by Fox News. Browner urged the international socialists to pursue "common action, since human survival increasingly depends upon the joint efforts of people around the world." Browner favors repeal of the industrial revolution to save us from global warming, as the planet gets cooler and cooler. And don't forget the White House science czar John Holdren. In his book Ecoscience: Population, Resources and Environment, Holdren ruminates that forced abortions may be a necessary policy "if the population crisis becomes sufficiently severe to endanger the society." The book also discusses spiking drinking water with chemicals to make people sterile. Harold Koh, who thinks Americans should be ruled by the laws of foreign countries

POPSRecycling Greenpeace Lies Senator John F Kerry (who served in Vietnam) can't even get the lie right. Greenpeace said 2030 and then was called on that lie and their head admitted it on the BBC.

POPSSquealing With Glee If you paid federal income tax last year, you should stop by a new-car dealership today. They’re probably serving free coffee and soda to their crowds of customers. If you’re lucky, they might be giving away hot dogs and pizza. Help yourself to as much as you can eat and drink, because it’s the only thing you’re going to get in exchange for the three billion dollars the Democrats just stole from you. When someone treats you the way Barack Obama just treated taxpayers, the least you can do is expect them to buy you a drink.

POPSThrough the Climate Change Looking Glass In Britain, it is startlingly clear that we have finally passed Through the Looking Glass with Alice. The Red Queen, like our naked emperor, is berating us to believe “six impossible things before breakfast”. But I am firmly with Alice: “There’s no use trying,” she said. “One can’t believe impossible things.”

POPSFooling the People Of course, it ends up being shivering in the dark as you cannot afford to turn on your lights or heat or air conditioning because it is taxed to hell and back, but it will sound so much nicer.

POPSThe Great Liberal Panemonium Machine
The Mexican swine flu pandemic? Oh, that's soooo yesterday. Global Warming? All those confident "scientific" predictions are falling apart around the world, even as greedy politicians still try to squeeze the last little drops of power and money out of them. Human flesh-eating bacteria? SARS? Ozone holes? Mad Cow? The Curse of the Killer Tomatoes? Water torture? CO2? Bee Colony Collapse? It never ends. As long as scare stories sell, as long as millions of indoctrinated suckers fall for them they will never end. They've got you on a rat-running wheel, running scared every day, like rats scrambling to get away from electrical shocks that never actually come.

POPSPoverty Is The Answer - Environmentalism But you can bet that he and his co-believers would strive mightily to stifle development in now destitute areas of the world--dooming perhaps billions of people to lives of continued squalor, disease, and lower life expectancies. More to the point of what we discuss here at SHS, human beings are a logical species: We take our ideas where they lead! (Thus, once Americans accepted the verity of Jefferson's "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal..."it doomed slavery, because servitude and equality are incompatible.) For the same reason, once we accept the fundamental premise of the piece--that we must sacrifice human prosperity to "save the planet"--the misanthropic ideology of Deep Ecology--humans as a viral infection afflicting Gaia--with radical depopulation as the cure--consider the genocidal implications--become a logical next step

POPSNo More Problems SUPPORTING BEHAVIORS: Mannerisms, and reactions, as well as light hearted demeanor lend to the air of problem free (see Rule #1) governing. POTUS, shall include one or more of the following: 1. Late Night talk show appearances. 2. Cracking wise on the Late Night shows with possible edgy material as to deflect from any possible (real) problems (see rule #1). 3. Dressing as casual as possible and bounding down the Air Force One stairs with an extra snappy salute. 4. POTUS clapping hands at himself after POTUS speaks.

POPSFive Reasons Insanity Is the New Normal In America Since Barack Obama has been elected, gun sales and copies of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged have flown off the shelves. Meanwhile, there's a Russian academic all over the news predicting that America will soon collapse, "tea parties" springing up all over the country, and the stock market has been doing a great impression of Michael Richards' career since he left Seinfeld. Is that because people have gone crazy? No, it's the reaction of sane people to the crazy as a football bat insanity that has begun to pass for conventional wisdom in large swathes of America. Living in this country today is like sitting in the back seat of a car that's hurtling towards the edge of a cliff at a hundred miles an hour while the driver fiddles with the radio and the guy in the passenger seat mocks the very idea of using brakes.

POPSGlobal Warming Becomes Climate Change It’s a matter of supply and demand, and the fear industry is constantly cranking out new models to be greedily gobbled up by the scare-hungry masses. It’s a new genre of fiction parading as science, and until a whole new generation learns how to exercise rational skepticism, to laugh at the frauds on their own initiative, they are going to get suckered over and over again.

POPSThe Age of Don Quixote In today's industrialized, world old windmills may be seen as sentimental relics of a bygone, bucolic era. But in the early 1600s they were as much part of an industrial landscape as power plants and oil rigs are today. Think of Big Oil as today's equivalent of Big Windmills. Thus, Don Quixote's attack on a windmill was an emblematic act of resentment by a feudal diehard against the symbol of the newly-emerged capitalist system - a much more progressive, efficient, and successful socio-economic order that ushered in prosperity, equality, and individual liberty. In a parallel development, observe Sen. Edward Kennedy's fight against power-generating windmills that threatened to ruin a bucolic view from his patrician Camelot mansion. You get the idea.

POPSEU - Getting Pushback on Destroying Their Industry In the Name of Climate Change Sometimes you wonder if anybody will start taking notice how climate change is just some big money-extorting scam. And when you start talking about putting an extra 100% cost on the energy used by businesses it becomes a choice between being "green" and being "unemployed and starving" - people are probably going to go with being able to eat.

POPSYour Future - Eat Rotting Food and Crap In a Bucket Here's someone living what the United Nations says is "living at roughly the level of carbon emissions that scientists at the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change say the average human must achieve by 2100 if we are to avoid dangerous effects of global warming." OK econuts. You go ahead. I personally like bathrooms and food that isn't decomposing. And running fracking water.
