POPSThe US House of Presumptive Meddlers Advocates of government control want you to believe that the serious shortcomings of our medical and insurance system are failures of the free market. But that's impossible because our market is not free. Each state operates a cozy medical and insurance cartel that restricts competition through licensing and keeps prices higher than they would be in a genuine free market. But the planners won't talk about that. After all, if government is the problem in the first place, how can they justify a government takeover?

POPSTens of Thousands of Dead People Get Stimulus Checks The Messiah has promised that he would go line by line over the budget to save money - but apparently can't be trusted to have the Social Security system recognize people who have been dead for 34 years? Wont' it be wonderful when the government takes over complete control of your healthcare?

POPSFDA Considers Cheerios a Drug? Unapproved though (non-Obama worship) is not approved by your government overlords. Americas are too stupid to understand what is a cereal and what is a drug. You will be eliminated. Here’s a chunk of the statement General Mills sent to Dow Jones Newswires this morning: The science is not in question … the clinical study supporting Cheerios’ cholesterol-lowering benefit is very strong. The FDA is interested in how the Cheerios cholesterol-lowering information is presented on the Cheerios package and website. We look forward to discussing this with FDA and to reaching a resolution.”

POPSThe American Depression For the present I think that we have enough social service bureaucrats, enough consultants, enough PhDs that will lecture how race/class/gender has made us, our air, our dogs even, so unfair. We simply are thirsty for the unapologetic doer, who never says he’s sorry for himself or his country or his ancestors, but instead thinks and plans how he can build something better and leave it for others–the age old agrarian commandment “make sure you leave a better farm than you inherit.” Where are they all, in the grave?

POPSUN Proposes Global Tax on Oil Its not about the money - because its always about the money. Well, that and the control over people's lives - but mostly it will fund lots and lots of UN conferences in nice places away from all those smelly peasants.

POPSObama: A Study in Presidential Arrogance Taxes - what's a few hundred thousand in non-paid taxes got to do with My Chosen Ones? Allies - well, the Brits were idiots to agree with W Earmarks - well its OK this time - but next time I will be watching. I'll sign them of course, but I have to say something now Gitmo - closed. Except for all those prisoners there who are too dangerous to turn loose. AIG - wasn't there some comment about "what do they think stimulus is - its spending"? So spend some on bonuses - its chump change (less than .1% of the amount we've already given them) with tons more billions to come.

POPSFire The Real AIG Frauds They whooped through trillions in spending without even reading it. And then are "surprised" and "angry" that its being used in ways they don't like? And these are the people who are going to run GM, all of our health care, and provide energy?

POPSToday's Genuises The last little detail is the best - Smith's license is suspended - probably for drunk driving - so he's just helping out.

POPSPork Good, Bonuses Bad News reports state that President Obama celebrated the passage of his gargantuan stimulus plan by throwing a black tie cocktail party at the White House, including a gourmet meal that featured $100 a pound Japanese wagyu beef. And they want to lecture others about fiscal responsibility? I know, I know ... at least they didn't serve pork.

POPSWitness Too Believable - Criminal Set Free Judge Tabor, 58, has been involved in several controversial cases. In 2004, he let a defendant break his curfew to go to a holiday camp and last year he spared a wife from jail after she admitted trying to poison her husband but said she only wanted to stop him seeing his mistress.

POPSSo Many Idiots, So Little Time Despite the manifest insanity of their view, they vocally believe that they’re the Phoenix, and it’s up to them to stoke to fire to create the ashes. One wonders were it will end. Manson’s mania-driven murders numbered in the double-digits. If these fellow-travelers have their way, mere millions of deaths may ultimately seem like small numbers.

POPSNo Screwing Up Stuff Without Representation Now, maybe it would be wrong to vote out of office the Representative of another district, but can’t we all vote to strip of them of any power they have? We remove these people from their committees and send them to a separate room in the Capitol where they have to sit quietly and can’t do anything other than vote on bills. It will be like the special ed class of the House. Their idiot districts can keep electing these people, but none of us should have to deal with them. Now, everyone will probably get partisan about this and try to strip all the Representatives on either side of all their powers, but if that happens, is that really a bad thing?

POPSNY Times and Historical Revisionism Wasn't The Most High and Holy One running around a year or so ago promising that if he got elected he'd call in the generals on day 1 and tell them to get everybody out of Iraq? And now Obama and the Democrats are being credited with helping Iraq? Only in the sense that they absolutely, positively did everything they could to destroy Iraq. There must be some hallucinogen injected into the air in the Times building.
