POPSConcerning Fox's War against the White House Considering that FoxNews started attacking Obama based on fantasies and lies starting in January, it's typical right-wing victimhood for them to whine like little girls when the White House takes actions to level the playing field. The only real surprise was how much the other Corporate, Right-WIng Media Outlets were in Fox's back pocket. Besides, why should FoxNews care if it's invited to press conferences, anyway? They just make up all their shit in the first place; creating and parroting strawmen and scarecrows over and over to drum the lies into the heads of their gullible viewers.

POPSGiving Thanks where Thanks is Due The parasites that are sucking blood money out of Americans for substandard healthcare definitely thank the naïve, gullible Town Hall Disrupter Sheep and the well-paid Right-Wing Shills for spreading outright lies about Healthcare Reform, making people think that it's something that it isn't. Those people are doing their part to ensure that more people die due to insufficient or substandard healthcare, that more people go bankrupt trying to pay when they do get hurt or sick, and that the income gap between the rich and the poor continues to grow to record levels. If you see someone spreading lies about Healthcare Reform; whether due to ignorance, or malice; correct them. Tell them the truth, and point them toward http://www.whitehouse.gov/realitycheck/?e=10&ref=text and FactCheck.org to debunk those vicious mischaracterizations of something that will help everyone in the US (except the rich)

POPSThe Truth About Canadian Healthcare If you're in a nation with universal healthcare, I urge you to go to the source site and sign the petition to the US media. Don't let the opponents of Healthcare Reform paint a deceitful picture of Universal Healthcare. Sign the petition, and leave a comment about just what Universal Healthcare means to you and how shameful American Healthcare is.

POPSBullies at work They're in charge of an unfair, overpriced, underperforming system, and they like it that way; and they're willing to resort to lies, fantasy, scare tactics and bullying to keep it that way. American Healthcare is about creating profits, instead of taking care of people; and if you aren't outraged by that, then maybe you should be getting some mental health care.

POPSThe Loud-Mouthed Minority
Aren't these selfish, self-centred town hall disrupters interested in the will of the people being done? The vast majority of Americans are progressive, and they want this Healthcare Reform. But no, these selfish twits, who bought complete audacious and fantasy-based lies are stomping all over the First Amendment Rights of reasonable citizens to have their concerns addressed by their government. They are just making mindless noise like demented harpies, disrupting reasonable discourse because they have salient points to present and only baseless fear to debate with. When you've got no valid arguments; when you're violating the courtesy rules of civilized debate; when you've got nothing to sell but fictional fears, then yes. It's time to shut up and sit down, until you have something relevant and REAL to bring up. And rather than make a fool of your self by shouting down the grownups, read this. It will blow every single one of your false arguments out of the water.

POPSUVWX People do realize that the only reason that there are still layoffs is because the big bosses aren't willing to sacrifice some of their disgraceful levels of profits for the sake of jobs. It's not the recession that is causing unemployment to be so high; it's greed, plain and simple. Just look at how all the corporations are posting huge profits, even as the common man is suffering. It doesn't take a financial genius to figure out where the problem lies. You want to see employment snap up again quickly? I can tell you how to do it. Simply apply a 75% tax on all corporate profits over $1 million dollars, which can only be reduced if the company creates new, lasting jobs that pay a Living Wage. I wager that the corporations are so adverse to supporting the government they have their meat hooks into so much that they'd rather spend the excess money to make jobs, than give it to the government. And even if they don't, watch how fast the National Debt will drop. It's a Win-Win Plan.

POPSA Comic about a Red Herring As usual, Michael Ramirez has nothing but lies and paranoia to show in his art. None of those things have been said by anyone. The Republican'ts are completely making shit up now, in order to try to scare people away from much needed healthcare reform. They've been trying to scare people away from Healthcare Reform since the 1920, and Americans have to say "No!" to them. Tell them that the loudmouthed minority doesn't represent the progressive majority of America!

POPSHealth Bizness No, the GOP wants to keep your healthcare in the hands of a parasitic, abusive, greedy Health Insurance agent, who serves his bosses and investors first, rather than a government bureaucrat who will serve you first.

POPSHealthcae; the competing systems Better care for everyone for less, or overpriced, insufficient care for some and death for others (the system Americans have now) It's an easy choice. It would be better if it was socialized medicine — that works much better in the other G20 nations that have it — but this is just a return of competitiveness to a monopoly market. If they try to sell it as socialism: 1) Tell them they're lying to you -and- 2) Ask them what the hell is so wrong with socialism, anyway? It works for America's allies just fine; better than America runs. I guarantee they'll have no arguments to offer other than lies and buzzwords from the McCarthy Era.

POPSClueless Propaganda Cartoon There is no evidence that government healthcare causes longer wait times, and a plethora of evidence that there are equivalent or shorter waiting times for necessary medical procedures in nations that have government healthcare. The truth (Something that Michael Ramirez wouldn't know if it bit him in the butt) is that commercial healthcare takes longer to treat people, due to accountants deciding whether patients get treatment, instead of doctors, like in socialized healthcare; and those accountants are paid to do everything possible to keep from paying out, even if it means delaying treatment until it is no longer helpful. Therefore, that sign should more properly read "Commercial Health Care".

POPSCheney broke the law with CIA program Panetta's subordinates told him about the program on June 23, and he briefed two intelligence committees the following day, the Times reported. Under the National Security Act of 1947, the U.S. president must ensure the intelligence committees are informed about "intelligence activities in the United States, including any significant anticipated intelligence activity." However, the Act also stipulates briefings should be held "to the extent consistent with due regard for the protection from unauthorized disclosure of classified information relating to sensitive intelligence sources and methods or other exceptionally sensitive matters." Feinstein said the law shows Congress should have been told about the program, and the Bush administration's failure to do so "is a big problem." It's unclear how U.S. President Barack Obama will address the issue. Since taking office, he has been reluctant to uncover any alleged wrongdoing by the Bush administration.

POPSConservative Propaganda, part two This one's a real knee-slapper. The number one cause of personal bankruptcy in America is the current healthcare system; people can't afford to get sick. In reality, the Single-Payer system will prevent people from going bankrupt from unexpected medical bills; something that commercial healthcare can't say. Every G20 nation except the US has Socialized medicine, and their healthcare is vastly superior to the US's, plus the fact that every single citizen gets all the healthcare they need. America needs to remake its medical system, and you can't let fearmongering by the corporate-owned Republicans stop it from happening. Expose lies like this cartoon for the hysterical drivel they are.

POPSRevisiting Lies The truth that with the Socialized Medicine in Canada, no one waits for medically-necessary operations. People getting elective surgery might have to wait from 3-6 weeks to get a time for their surgery, but again, that's only medically-unnecessary, elective surgery The meme that Canadians have to wait months for treatment is just a desperate lie by Big Health Insurance and their Republican pawns to try to keep Americans on their parasitic, overpriced, unfair health insurance. Canadians get better healthcare, less expensive healthcare, more inclusive healthcare, and better preventative healthcare than Americans, hands down. The American plan isn't intended to treat patients; it's intended to turn profits. Your healthcare deserves better than to be someone's get-rich-quick scheme.

POPSMore Lies and Fearmongering from the Right Once again, the Right-Wing Nutbars jump out from behind a rock and scream, "Booga-Booga!", trying to make Americans make an irrational choice. Single-Payer Health Care is not about the government interfering with your treatment. It's about government-appointed Medical Professionals determining what is need, rather than bloodsucking accountants and execs at Health Insurance companies who are stealing your money and contributing nothing whatsoever to people's care. It's about having the option to go to whatever doctor you want, and the freedom to get second opinions. It's about instant approval, instead of waiting for greedy people weighing whether to screw you over or not on your healthcare. It's about everyone having adequate healthcare for a reasonable price, rather than just a small minority for 150% of what it needs to cost. Right-Wing group-speak benefits no one but Big Health Insurance, and the Republicans they have in their pockets.

POPSCheap shots from Chickenwings (formerly Eaglewings) Poor Chickenwings; he can't spread his lies when people keep exposing his hypocrisy. He takes the route of the coward and blocks people who disagree with him. I label him a first-class wimp, along with Wilhelm the Chickenhearted. As for our fundamental differences, we disagree on Faith. But of course, a wimp like you can only take cheap shots at me after disabling my ability to respond to your charges. You do know that Clipmarks specifically states that you are not to use the post disabler to censor people, and if reported for doing so, you can get your account suspended. Unlike cowards like Chickenwings and Wilhelm the Chickenhearted, I don't block anyone because my facts and opinions stand up to scrutiny. I'm not scared of what other people might post on my clips!

POPSA prime example of the Right-Wing, Corporate Media in action Now, can we put this ludicrous fantasy about a "Liberal Media" behind us once and for all? The companies that own the media don't give a damn about Liberal issues; all they care about is their profit margins, and that's a 100% Conservative issue. Oh, and Pelosi didn't lie. Her peers have come forward and confirmed that there were no CIA briefings on the dates when the CIA said they told her about waterboarding. The CIA traffics in lies in every thing it does, so why don't people realize that what the CIA says is just lies? The only possible reasons can be ignorance or stupidity.

POPS"The CIA Misled me" Now we know that they did mislead Nancy. Now that other people who supposedly attended the meeting when Waterboard was brought up have confirmed that the meeting never occurred.

POPSLame Duck: Canadian Style
Stephen Harper managed to avoid having his government disbanded and replaced with a coalition government only by playing politics, meaning that people suffering from the recession are going to be screwed for another 2 months of Parliament doing nothing because brainiac Harper had it prorogued. Harper, when everything points to your government being about to fall, it means that you've lost your mandate. You won the October election based on lies and slander, and now that people see the real truth about you and the Tories, they want nothing to do with you. Enough of this "flouting democracy" bullshit — you want to know what democracy is? 62% if Canadians voted against , for the left-wing opposition parties. That is where the true majority government lies. All you've managed to do is screw up the government so bad that all the opposition is now completely in lockstep against you. This sleazy trick of yours isn't going to work; you're just making Canadians hate you more

POPSIf they went any slower, they'd be in reverse Despite the fact that the Tories duped a lot of Canadians into believing their lies that they would help the economy, they are doing anything but. They talk about having a "Mandate", but the truth is, far more people voted for left-wing MPs (Liberal and NDP). If Stephen Harper is really interested in fulfilling the will of the people, then he'll step aside, and let this left-wing coalition take over the government. We know that the Liberals and the NDP know how to handle financial crises; unlike the Tories, who only know how to create financial crises.
