POPSRepublican Re-Education Camps? MN Representative Michelle Bachmann (Schlockmann?) went ballistic and called AmeriCorps a system of "re-education" camps". It turns out that Rush and his GOP butt-kissers are the ones actually talking about "re-education". Those will be the placces where the staff uniforms include flip-flops. You have to give Cantor credit for having a spine more flexible than a cat's. Back in 1960, people were worried that a Democratic win would mean a White House controlled by the Vatican. It would seem that the Republicans are being controlled from a radio studio in Palm Beach Florida.

POPSBulls, Bears, Donkeys and Elephants These graphs compare the growth of a hypothetical investments under Republican vs Democratic administration since 1928. The Republicans have always promoted themselves as the party of economic expansion, but the graphs tell a different story.

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.

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

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".
