POPSWhat Color Is Your Elephant? With Republican running so far behind the Democratic Party in fundraising, it's no wonder the $150,000 spent on Sarah Palin's wardrobe caused a big fuss. However, the GOP has been making a lot of questionable purchases including a thousand 11-ounce chocolate elephants.

POPSMcCain Campaign Forces Job Walkout Also from the source: "We were asked to read something saying were against protecting children from danger," this worker said. "I wouldn't do it. A lot of people left. They thought it was disgusting." This worker, too, confirmed sacrificing pay to walk out, saying her supervisor told her: "If you don't wanna phone it you can just go home for the day." The script coincided with this robo-slime call running in other states, but because robocalling is illegal in Indiana it was being read by call center workers. Representatives at Americall in Indiana, and at the company's corporate headquarters in Naperville, Illinois, didn't return calls for comment.

POPSBarry Goldwater's Granddaughter: Why McCain Has Lost Our Vote
Also from the source: My grandfather (Paka) would never suggest denying a woman's right to choose. My grandmother co-founded Planned Parenthood in Arizona in the 1930's, a cause he supported. I'm not sure about how he would feel about marriage based on same-sex orientation. I think he would feel that love and respect for ones privacy is what matters most, not the intolerance and poor judgment displayed by McCain over the years. Paka respected our civil liberties and passed on the message that that we should conduct our lives standing up for the basic freedoms we hold so dear. Nothing about McCain, except for maybe a uniform, compares to the same ideology of what Goldwater stood for as a politician. The McCain/Palin plan is to appear diverse and inclusive, using women and minorities to push an agenda that makes us all financially vulnerable, fearful, and less safe. Nothing about the Republican ticket offers the hope America needs to regain its standing in the world

POPSPalin, pallin' -- what's in a name? Also from QT: Tax not what you can do . . . Jason Boskey, a Blairsville, Ga., reader, writes: "If a person is against raising taxes when the government is operating at a major deficit, isn't that a case of not supporting the troops?" It is more than that. It is a case of a deadbeat not supporting the troops.

POPSPowell-As-Traitor Cartoon Receives Condemnation Cartoonists from all shades of the political spectrum: left, right and center, have been close to unanimous in agreeing that this is, in the words of Matt Bors, one of the "...top ten worst political cartoons ever created. Since time began. Hands down.” Even Michelle Malkin, who is so far to the right that she can't walk without spinning around, said, "It’s a mistake to attribute Powell’s endorsement primarily to some kind of race loyalty." It's not even much of a cartoon, as the images are from the top of the list of Google image searches for "Benedict Arnold" and "white flag".

POPSFeds to look into Lee County Sheriff Scott's 'Hussein' Obama comment at Palin rally For the record, it's John Sidney McCain III and Sarah Louise Heath Palin. Gee..."Heath"...does that mean she's a heathen? And Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. The investigation, though, is not for what Sheriff Scott said, but that he was speaking ex cathedra as a law enforcement official, by virtue of the fact that he was in uniform and on duty at the time he spoke. Had he been in civvies and on his own time, it wouldn't be an issue.
