POPSMcCain Going Down
John McCain was the Republican candidate for President in the last election, running against Barrack Obama. He's up for relection in 2010. Now it looks like he's going to lose his Senate seat, facing a primary challenge in his own party. Point 1. The horses are lining up at the starting gate for the 2010 elections. (one year ahead of voting day, par for the course) McCain is one of my U.S. Senators and I'd love to dance on his political grave. I'm joyful planning on it.... I've remained registered Democrat so I can vote in the Demo primaries. Up to now there hasn't been a good candidate because McCain was previously invincible. Now the cracks are showing -- A big problem is that Democrats always lose this seat because they mouth the national policy on immigration while the vast majority of us in this state --- a state on the border with Mexico -- have a whole different real-world perspective on an out-of-control border. We want the border controlled, like all nations do

POPSU.S. Accepts Iran's Offer of Talks Iran's proposal included efforts to curb nuclear weapons, so this should be interesting. Right now Western propganda says Iran MAY want nuke weapons someday...but if the focus gets to those countries that actually HAVE nuke weapons at least it would be talking about reality. Bush era politics refused to talk to Iran, so this is another progressive step forward for the Obama Administration: first the job creation and economic stimulus plans, health care reform on track to victory, withdrawal from Iraq going according to timetable/treaty deal, talking to Iran instead of threatening another war based on lies, first Hispanic/woman on Supreme Court, rolling back some unfair Bush era tax breaks for the Superrich, proposed regulations to stop Wall St. scams, restoring power to unions, equal pay for woman, end of torture, freeing Gitmo innocents and proceeding towards closing it down, etc. The country certainly is in better hands. 2010 elections the next big battle. It starts abou

POPSU.S. Mercenary's Lewd & Wild Corrupt Behavior Stealing tons of military stuff, wild nude drinking parties where they fondle each other (there's video and photos). Prostitution rings. Drug deals. Hazing (beating up subordinates). Eating potato chips and drinking vodka off of each other's ass, pissing on people, failing to show up for duty, going out on unauthorized missions to "hunt heads," and awarding themselves commendation for doing so. Ah....the glories of war. Hundreds of billions of dollars in U.S. contracts. Republicans refuse to investigate -- they first have to make sure Obama gets the blame. (It's his war. His Vietnam). I hope this makes into into the War Movies. Scenes of the wild parties interspersed with oil rigs churning away, poppy fields in flames, false elections, the embassy under attack, politicians talking about freedom and democracy, car bombs and bodies, hookers and drugs...brawls over a bag of ice. Hillary fleeing in a helicopter. Cheney at home The impact of our armed insanity is mighty dread i

POPSIraqi Puppet Government Falling Apart? The U.S. supported government of Nouri al-Maliki appears to be facing a serious challenge, couple with proposals to ask U.S. troops to leave a year earlier than already agreed upon. Maybe it's some consolation to know that you can murder hundreds of thousands of people in a war started with deliberate lies, but it can't last forever. This Bush, neo-con created house of cards will fall. It's just a question of when.

POPSAfghan elections: fraud, violence, intimidation This article, from the BBC, is a nice "objective summary." I don't know about you --- and I'm a voter -- but if there was bombs at some polling places, people were threatening to cut my finger off if I voted, and voter fraud by ruthless warlords and their cohorts was pretty much guaranteed, plus a Major Foreign Power was pulling all the strings....it would make it more difficult. Not to mention having to talk about it on forums where cynics say voting is a waste of time anyway. gosh...that's a lot to go through. But, of course, citizenbfk would get to the polls - do or die - that's a fact, jack; that's the way it is. 'Cause, voting is not a waste of time. Even the 'evildoers," and war lords gotta go through the shame of elections. Because it comes down to pushing people around with violence and guns or pushing people around with fear mongering and hate. and fearmongering and hate can be opposed with righteousness and caring...but guns can only be opposed with guns.

POPSFalse "terror alerts" for poltical reasons It's truly a full-time job keeping up with the mendacity of the warmongers...who now spread racist lies to try and get back in power. This clip, no surprise except for the fact that it's documented...but the Bush Administration, hoping to win the 2004 elections, wanted to get the "terror alert," raised. The more you can make people fear the more they go along with war and hate programs. So..false wars based on deliberate lies....now false "terror alerts," trying to win elections (vs. there not even being a real threat). The Republican party needs to be driven into extinction, defeated again and again and no support for their lies, smear or hate campaigns should be supported. Support the opposite.

POPSBlackwater Founder Implicated in Murder Blackwater is one of the so-called "private security contractors," -- i.e. mercenary armies used by the USA military in Iraq. Private armies are a classic and very dangerous sign of growing fascism. Why? -- Because they start murdering people who threaten their business or don't agree with their ideology....which is what this case filed in federal court is about. The growing thugishness of the Republicans, neo-cons, racist and special interest corporations is another worrisome sign of growing fascism....there are now many report of Town Hall meetings being disrupted and people intimidate at these public meetings. Images of people being "hung in effigy," and things like that also growing...the images and rhetoric of violence moving into high gear. These same thug tactics were used to shut down the Florida vote counting in the 2000 elections and all the leaders were on the Republican payroll. So, buckle up my friends and strengthen yourself...they may push this into rea

POPSYank Tourist on Kurd-Iran Border Arrested!? In the news it says (all propaganda distortions) : "Tourist? "Self-ruled Kurdish region? Iran seeking to build nuke weapons? Criticized Iran's disputed elections? The Guardian? Of course (sarcasm mode) we have to start off believing that the war torn Iraq-Iran northern border is a prime spot for backpacking tourist. Then we have to accept that this Kurdish region is "self-ruled." - i.e. that Iraq is broken into pieces already when this would be a Civil War issue. (part of a 'divide and conquer Master Plan, no doubt) Then I suppose there are some "U.S. officials," who say Iran is trying to build nukes but this is Zionist extremist and Republican warmongering and the Obama administration is trying hard, in the face of non-stop international lies - to make a distinction between nuclear Power and nuclear Weapons. Finally, there has been no official U.S. criticism of Iran elections and a deliberate attempt to indicate we should "not meddle." The Guardian? - g

POPSU.S. Health Care Stallen in Senate. Now Dead? I suppose this is why the President wasn't so 'upbeat,' last night in his TV Press conference. I sure don't envy him his job. This Demo Senate leader who has failed the President is up for re-election and I think he should be defeated. Now it's clear the Democratic Congress is NOT supporting the President. What to do? IMO.. Lots of these Democratic Congressional folks should be defeated. I'd suggest voting for fresh faces in the Democratic 2010 Primary (#1)...and if that don't work out vote for a third part in the 2010 elections. Voting Third Party in the USA winnder-take-all system is mainly throwing away your vote...but I'd suggest that rather than voting Republican....and I'd suggest voting for change, new candidates in the Democratic primary #1. It's a bitch. Reid sucks. It's been quite a battle to get this far and I think a lot of very, very good things have been accomplished, but now that Democratic leadership has jumped on the bandwagon against O

POPSObama Official Inauguration Poster The 'street artist,' who made this (and the HOPE poster for the campaign) is another one of those Obama supporters who contacted the campaign and said he just had to do something to support Obama and he had made this poster. His inititial one word on the poster was: PROGRESS. The campagain asked his to change it to: HOPE. A later version came out, closer to the elections that said: VOTE. And now his work is the official poster for the Inauguration of the 44th President of the United States. Pretty good. I think any phony made propaganda can never be as strong as what comes for real out of people's hearts. This street artist had previously been arrested just over 20 times for an apparently irresistible craving to paint larger-than life sized graffiti pop art on the side of buildings, a few of which had anti-establishment themes (such as: Big Brother is Watching You). Lots of the art world seem to hate what he does ('agitpropr poster art). Now he's in the Nationa

POPSVice-President Cheney Indicted in Texas The indictments have started. More should happen once these corrupt men are out of office. This first such indictment also shows how such indictments can be easily done all over the country. In some states even citizens can start a petition for a criminal indictment. (Of course, reasons are needed and a link to a specific injured person or specific crime in that state, etc. are required). The worm has turned. The recent elections were a LANDSLIDE VICTORY for the Democrats, even largest they they could have dreamed. It was a crushing blow to the Republicans and no matter what charade or trash talk they want to continue with, they have been firmly knocked out of all political power in D.C. If folks like us and millions elsewhere who we know care about these issues and have worked hard for this change - just continue to lobby for justice, speak out for the need for war crime & other trials, then these guys won't get away. Justice is needed, or evils thend to happen ag

POPSWho Should Rock Obama? Inauguration 09 (!) Yesterday houses of prayer and worship throughout the nation (and others) rang bells, lit candles, lit incense, offered prayers, blessings, good will to the new President-elect. The previous week were tributes from world leaders, USA politicians,, rock stars and Hollywood celebrities, sports stars, TV announcers and pundits, Radio DJ's, activist groups and people everywhere on the street or from their offices. TV news, in a desperate bid to keep viewers now that the elections are over, tried to pretend which bred of dog(s) Obama should get for his kids was a topic of national interest. But - BOOM! - What the people were really interested in and what they wanted exploded onto the scene (just like who they wanted elected, ! exploded, despite stupid or negative meda) -- The Inauguration. Inauguration tickets. Inauguration hotel and dinner reservations. Some memorabilia and... MUSIC! Cast your vote on this web page's unofficial contest. (Note: 'Movin' On Up' is a joke

POPSMadonna's Revised Video Interlude: An Ecological Message Video Interlude = a wall of big screen video played during a concert. -- When this 'Video Interlude,' was first show in Wales, on her Sticky & Sweet Tour she was ripped apart by the U.S. press for allegedly comparing McCain to a Nazi and putting out such a direct pro-Obama message. Of course it has to be remembered that Republican politics in America is based on complaints, accusations, trying to stifle voices and votes, intimidate people and personally try to destroy all opponents. In fact, this Video Interlude had no specific text message. Although McCain wasn't shown in much of a positive light, while Obama certainly was. After this incredible Video Interlude in Wales Madonnna's tour has now arrived in the USA, now -- after the elections. So it seems this Video Interlude -- while keeping the same song ('Get Stupid') -- now has a a strong ecological message. Although not as mind-blowing as the original it now has an impact in this new direction. Pretty coo

POPSThe Last of the Polls Show Obama Way Ahead. A major LANDSLIDE VICTORY now looks certain. 270 electoral votes needed to win. Many now predict he will get at least 280 or more. Over 300 would be extra good. Over 340 would be a LANDSLIDE VICTORY. Things also looking better for Democrats in both the House and Senate, much better than expected and the non-stoppable ruling total of 60 Senators even appears possible. Folks had been saying McCain's chances were like hoping to draw into an inside straight. Now, though, it looks like he needs a miracle. Obama continues to campaign on this Election Day, in a firmly held Republican state. He appears determined not just to win but to make gains in many traditional Republican states, "redrawing the electoral map." -- changes that might last for decades.

POPSFirst Votes Counted in U.S. Historical Elections: Obama Wins. Election Day has begun. Obama ahead by 7 votes. Only about 145,000,000 million registered remaining. A record turnout expected. The amusing occurrence of a town, ski resort, way up in a national forest near the Canadian border, Dixville, NH has happened again, with it's fifteen minutes of fame. New Hampshire law allows allows towns to close their polls once all registered and eligible voters have cast ballots and to declare the results. All 29 registered voters showed up to vote at one minute after midnight - a town tradition for almost 50 years. (the town has 115 residents). Obama got 17 votes, McCain 10, and Ron Paul two write in votes.

POPSThe Last Days of McCain - He's Going Down The excuses are already pouring out of the Republican Party as they now try to sound insightful, pointing out what caused them to lose the election. The shouldn't overlook several big facts: Most Yanks don't like the War in Iraq, most Yanks want to see bin Laden dead, most Yanks are horrified at their lost of savings and the Wall St. Bailout of banks and the majority of the people don't like John McCain. On the other side of the coin: Lots of folks - the majority -- like Obama a lot. All the pundits might find this surprising: people voted on the issues and the character of the man.

POPSBush's Republican Party in Full-Tilt Panic Watching the elections has been like living in two different worlds: The world where Obama can draw a crowd of 100,000 (200,000 in Germany) and McCain is luck to get 20,000 folks to listen to him. The other world is on TV where the give both McCain and Obama equal time and each side says how well they're doing and how bad the other guy is. The TV also makes up issues that are not issues to no one but themselves and chews and chews on them for weeks: The so-called 'Bradley Effects,' is one of them. Now the race has come down to the Finish Line and Bush's Republicans see point-blank in front of their faces how great their losses will be tomorrow, and no TV chat is going to change anything. From the beginning many people saw this was in the cards; A few million and myself, too. 8 years of the Bush nightmare were suddenly going to be forgotten. The real tough race was the primary of Obama vs. Hilary Clinton. That was a close call. But now, it's not a close call; it's a

POPSMore McCain Blame: The Circular Firing Squar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwHO8C8hmSU&feature=related These guys are just disgusting, disloyal and dissolute. Even noted Republicans like Karl Rove (a corrupt Bush campaign boss) and Newt Gringich, once a boss in the Republican Congress. Nobody wants to go down with the ship. It seems like they also want to show how smart they are by being the first to point out the flaws. They have no integrity, no loyality. It would have been horrible to have them remain in power. If we keep kicking them around for another week this defeat should be a done deal. Amen.

POPSJoe the Plumber May Lose His Right to Vote. Republican Joe might lose his right to vote due to another tactic of Republican voter suppression. Why? Because he name is misspelled. Misspelled by an election official when he registered. Misspelled by one letter. As this clip says: "disenfranchisement by typo." This happen to Jose Lopez-Sandin. The election official typed in his name as 'Joseph." This happen to Anne Nguyen. The election official typed her name as: "Ann." You would think such a thing would be no problem. No. You would think it could be corrected, right now, a few weeks before the elections; or even right there at the voting place. No. So, at least, such a voter could fill out a 'provisional ballot' and that solves the problem. No. Provisional ballots get rejected at an extremely high rate. You think stupid things like this (also, like having your home address with a typo), you would think the law would be changed. No. Republicans like this type of voter suppression that mainl

POPSThe Obama Landslide!-Yahoo's Election Map This election map predicts the largest landslide of all maps and estimates I've seen. It says Obama will get 355 electoral votes. That's incredible! I also find it doubtful. On the same page is an electoral map that shows the smallest estimate for an Obama victory, 277 electoral votes. The average of these two would be 316 electoral votes. A map close to that number is in today's Los Angeles Times, at: http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-votemap,1,6739961.htmlstory (with 46 electoral votes undecided) The New York Times predicts a victory for Obama with 286 electoral votes (and 89 undecided) at: http://elections.nytimes.com/2008/president/whos-ahead/key-states/map.html I agree with the LA Times map the most, an Obama victory with 318. It got pro-Obama, leaning Obama, pro-McCain, leaning McCain and the undecided just right, iMO. VIRGINIA will indicate which way the wind blows, IMO. Since VA is East Coast, Some will feel they know the winner by the end of voting in

POPSA "Magic 60" Senate Seats in Obama Landslided? Leaders of the Democratic party are now publicaly saying it's possible they may wind up with 60 Democratic Senators in this years elections that now are increasingly looking like a landslide victory. This would give them total unchecked political power (except for the courts). They call the 60 total the "Magic 60," because this would prevent the opposition party from doing a filibuster, stalling passage of legislation by talking and talking and talking. This has been one of the Democrats excuses the past two years,BTW, for not doing anything to live up to their promises to stop the Iraq War and others things. But I don't like this excuse; it's a lie: a filibuster doesn't stop legislation, it only stalls it. If the Democrats wanted to fight they could have made the Republicans get real and actually try a filibuster and just out-talk them. Period. Plus, 51% of the vote rules and changes anything in our Democracy. The filibuster rule could have been changed. Anyhow...now

POPSRepublicans making Death Threats & Hack Attacks Read this clip and you have to wonder" Are we in America? YES. This is America. Since 2000 elections there has been the use of Thug Force and Thug Displays to intimidate and influence the elections. Unabashedly I have, here in clipmarks, said things like these people were Monsters...they will not die nor give up power unless utterly stomped into the ground...they are like a vampire who will not die to a wooden stake is firmly driven into the ground. I wasn't kidding. I'm serious. The McCain-Palin campaign has also fueled this violence of mob shouting, death threats, computer hacks, robbery, mailing of 'suspicious packages," etc. This story just brings this to light in mainstream news -- it's normally a darkness hidden in the shadows, but it's upfront now. Can you imagine what Obama must put up with? It's truly horrible, real, omnipresent, thug politics at it's worse and we're flooded with it. Ms. Brunner's crime? - 'Cause she stopped Republican efforts of voter su

POPSVideo: Bush Might Bomb Iran if Obama Wins The idea here, some have suggested, is to suggest an anti-war appeal: If Obama is elected war with Iran will start. This incredible twisted suggestion is typical of other new McCain ideas, like he is the one really opposed to Bush policies although he voted for them 90% of the time. The twisted idea, too, that McCain's support for tax breaks for the SuperRich and Corporations is really to help out 'Joe the Plumber,' because the wealth will 'trickle down.' According to this twisted reasoning, McCain is the anti-war in Iran, anti-Bush policy guy, and pro-voice for the Middle and lower classes. ?? Other Republicans also just, seriously, going nuts: that McCain campaign worker who carved a B into her cheek (backwards) and tried to blame it on a "Black pro-Obama mugger." ?? Latest...some Republican arrested for making death threats against the Sec. of State of Ohio (who's in charge of elections) -- because she shut down a Republican attempt at voter suppression. ??

POPSIsraeli leadership worried about Obama Victory You don't see many headlines about this, in fact this one comes from China. But it was stated last month by Bill Kristol, in his Weekly Standard, that all the leaders of the major Israeli political parties would rather have McCain as President. This would seem obvious, after all, because McCain is more than ready and willing to bomb Iran, among other more slanted pro-Israel issues. Billy Kristol is also a McCain supporter and advisor and probably the most visible and prominent pro-Israeli neocon (the so-called 'neoconservatives.' - besides his newspaer, his leadership in the American Institute pro-Israel lobby group, he is also a commentator on Fox News, the most outrageous right-wing mainstream mouthpiece. The clip here is attributed to "a senior government source." Of course, not all Jews feel this way, but AIPAC and others have certainly been pouring their money and campaign efforts into McCain.

POPSAt UN - Overywhelming Majortity Supports Obama This is good. It would seem to many, as pointed out in this clip, that Obama "would usher in a new agenda of multilateralism " Um....I noticed the delegation from Russia is included in the 10 nations they actually mention. But I've read elsewhere a few times that -- Yes -- even most Russian people on the street like Obama more than McCain. BUT -- If asked a broader question not just about pick either Obama or McCain...you get a different answer, which is: #1 - They don't think it will change USA policy towards Russia #2 - They hate America...this hate has been growing (Perhaps due to trying to steal the Caspian Sea Oil, Poland missile site, only always pro-Israel, against their near neighbor Iran, etc) I guess this points to another weakness of polls, which have been so wild in this years elections, indicating one way than another. In this case with Russia it seems their real opinion is: "go *uck yourself; we're sick of you; but Obama is better." Still, This is a nic

POPSPoll says race won't be big factor in USA vote 7 out of 10 doesn't sound that good but the pollster points out this goes both ways. I think McCain's age is has the greatest prejudice; old people say this as well. This also points out another problem: Media Driven Issues. The media has just been making up one issue after another than is not an issue to nobody else but them: media fabricated issues...and often just to raise hackles or excitement and thus have more people tune in. With race, it's been called: The Bradley Effect. (See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley_effect ) It basically means white folks will hide their racial prejudice when polled, thus polls will be off. But that was 26 years ago. Times have changed. There is NO Bradley Effect anymore (well...if so, certainly much much less) This is shown -- documented by elections of other Afro-American candidates in the 21st century, like in a race for governor in 2006; polls were fine. (See: http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/10/23/couricandco/

POPSMcCain's Last Days Discover a Killer Attack IMO - 5 Days ago Democratic VP candidate Joe Biden put his foot in his mouth (again). In this clip here he he talks about Obama having to face an international crisis and being tested. Since then, Biden's own words have been deadly used against himself and Obama. Two days later, McCain interview focused on this. at: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article5000041.ece Three days later this ad appeared: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/10/23/biden_gaffe_featured_in_new_co.html Four Days later, this ad: http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/08/23/mccain-rolls-out-new-ad-with-bidens-words/ Today: On this theme, not online yet, but ad on TV...and it's deadly; it's poison to Obama . It's scary. But it might be too late. All the stupid ungrounded smears about Ayers and voter fraud and poor Joe the plumber had no truth and missed the target. If McCain had focused on this question for the last 3 weeks, IMO, he c

POPSUSA Elections: Voting Started - Democrats Coming On Strong.,,,even in Georgia! This is a good clip for current info on the "battleground states." Which way these states vote will be critical to who wins: Ohio,Pennsylvania, Virgina and Florida. All states count, of course but the four states above are the big ones that swing back and forth and could go either way and thus make the difference. But Virginia? North Carolina!? Georgia!? Wow! - In the USA Civil War, 150 years ago, it was a war between Northern States and Southern States (of that time). If looking at the USA Election Map for the last 150 years, it's been the very exact same dividing line....the same dividing line as in the USA Civil War: The Northern States (of that time) vote one way; the Southern States (of that time) vote another. For the Democrats to win in Virginia - capital of the South, would change all that...(and Obama now ahead). If they win North Carolina...incredible! shocking! If Obama wins Georgia..OMG! OMG! It would be a victory not just for now, but a 150 y

POPSPoll finds worldwide support for Obama This speaks for itself doesn't it? It's a real good feeling knowing that the majority of the world also see how much better Obama would be. Thanks for all that support. Unfortunately the real red-necks,red-necks red-necks might try to use this AGAINST Obama their political 'modus operandi' being always trying to divide people and spread hate and fear. So the majority of the people in Europe liking Obama, would be used by these Republican neocon neofascist as another reason why Obama is "anti-America." Basically, warmongers and folks like that try to get power by insulting everybody else and putting them down. Fortunately -- for us all -- their days appear numbered. If Obama supporters just keep working and advocating and those who go door-to-door keep going door-to-door and those who make telephone calls keep making telephone calls, etc....winning this election in less than two weeks will be a 'Slam Dunk' (certain to happen). Elections do matter; this one more than m

POPSWill Republicans Steal the 2008 election? This interview is with Mark Crispin Miller. If you want to see who is actually trying to steal the elections -- and tactics of Republican voter suppression going on right now, his books are good details and summaries. He wrote: Fooled Again: How the Right Stole the Election Cruel and Unusual: Bush Cheney's New World Order & The Bush Dyslexicon Republicans are the party that tries to purge voters from the rolls. The Republicans are the ones who are always crying wolf and voter fraud while they are the ones doing it, and doing massive campaigns of voter suppression. If you've heard about ACORN and charges of their alleged voter fraud (which it ain't) then you know what's going on -- and in Miller interview here & his book -- you get a good explaination of what's going on behind the scenes...a massive and decade long program of attempts at voter suppression by the Republicans. Let's not get fooled again.

POPSOhio challenges Republican Voter Suppression This is called 'voter caging.' and the Ohio Sec. of State sent out a directive to put an end to it. Republican would aid in this effort by sending out their own registered mail to Democratic voters. If the registered letter was returned the Republicans would use this to purge that voter from the list of qualified voters, claiming that they are no longer at the correct address. There are a lot of other sneaky ways to disqualify voters - some states purge everyone who didn't vote in the last elections, for example, or do other things making it easy to get tossed off the rolls. When you're losing the election big time and the Democrats have registered 400% more voters than you, this is about all you have left to do to try to steal the elections (again).

POPSClear Republican Voter & PR Machinations New Yorkers have a chance to vote for Barrack Osama. Having the State Elections Office spelling the names of the candidates correctly is a rather important thing. Three proof readers apparently missed this; we told. My Point is really about another claim of so-called Voter Fraud mentioned frequently on clipmarks: The dastardly ACORN conspiracy to steal the elections by submitting phony names on voter registration cards. Phony names, like: Barrack Osama. The best description of the ACORN accusations, I now realize, is that the Republicans were trying to "make a mountain out of a molehill." -- deliberately whining about this and every stupid thing under the sun, like Obama using the words: "lipstick on a pig," or the bad photo of Palin in Newsweek and Nothing of Substance. I've seen voter fraud. It was a whole voting booth found in the town dump one week after elections. This stuff? Mountains out of molehills to distract and rile up ignorant emotions. Barrack Osama?
