POPSWhat's Missing in Minnesota is RESPECT The insecure Coach Childress just seems to be concerned with being upstaged by some un-heard-of nobody called,...uh...(lemme see here)...Brett Favre. The clip refers to last week when coach wanted to sit Favre but seemed to extend to the Mon.Night game where when Favre finally started to take charge on the field things started to happen. Coach seems indignant and possibly aiming for retribution just to show he's in charge. That's insecurity. That may just spoil one of the greatest comeback seasons of all time. There will have to be some quick & serious growing up, I think mostly on the part of Childress. Show the respect and work together, Mr. Childress. Work WITH Farve. Absolutely forget who has to PROVE their worth and start working to the same goal. Together.

POPSWhy Dontcha Ask WTF the Stimulus Was For? Conyers rude, disrespectful to FOX reporter who asked, how are you going to get something that's not specifically in the name of race if blacks are their target for assistance. Conyers snapped, we've said that it is persons of color & minorities who've been hit hardest and are the worse off. YOU GOT THAT? Jackson Lee explained, in her wisdom, that of course when the minorities are helped that whites on need will also be helped and ultimately this is about need - not color. Yes'm. Thanky.

POPSDo Left Still See Benefits of Depopulation? More food for thought on confusing issues. This would take some of the reasoning away from the the theories as to the philosophical driving forces behind the Climate Change Cabal. We know these are one wing of a global dominance effort who've basically hi-jacked a manufactured issue, but I'd included depopulation as one of their backbone goals. Then again, this may be just propaganda so we think, "Oh! Maybe they ARE sincere. Maybe this isn't an ulterior motive behind climate change fascism."

POPSManufactured Global "Consensus" Finally, the pretense of 'a consensus of scientists' about the 'reality' of 'global warming' is the very underpinning of the myth, a commodity manufactured by mediocre scientists most often associated with State or UN 'services', and marketed by globalized media-chains and unethical mainstream peer-reviewed magazines such as Science.

POPS#youmightbedivisive if...... (more) TWEET your own thoughts if you're sick of partisans taking every new concept that gets uncovered with regard to how the parties are just tools of Corporatist/Government urges to allout tyrannical oneworld nannyism but using each one in the same old R vs.D paradigm. You know, like when you realize that both parties are vehicles to drive us away from a true American marketplace that thrived before the boom & bust bailout days (like,..oh,..pre 1960's, maybe pre 1970's) and each party is master of different aspects of the same Post-American end, and then someone says "Yea. Like Cheney & Haliburton. With Obama things will get better now." -OR- "Yea. Obama & SEIU & multi $T debt bailouts. Repubs. will get us back to the free-market." You just want to scream when you hear either one. ARRGGGHHHH! Just finish the phrase "you might be divisive if" and hit "update".

POPSHealth Insurance:Cheating The Honor System The honor system may be fine in situations much smaller in scale and with less at stake. In instances where circumstances have placed people in the same position and role - at least on the surface as a statistic - as the intentionally dishonest, it is left to number crunchers to declare those who would appear as cheaters to be invalid. It is the dishonest who are more responsible for innocent parties being dubiously removed from the pool, thereby taking away their coverage. Assuming these cases could be resolved by a caring arbitrator to discern the difference between the unfortunate and the dishonest, maybe this factor could be cleared up.

POPSHealthcare Lies #1 in Series I ask: Who was it, when was it, and what was the alleged purpose of instituting such regulations? Behind the alleged intentions, what were the true intentions? Was there pre-knowledge that the effect would be detrimental to consumers in the long run? Was the well-being of the people sacrificed in order to cause the state of healthcare to degenerate and costs to spiral out of control just so eventually the people would acquiesce to governmental control? After all, go back only to the Clinton effort. When that failed do you imagine Democrats wanted to see conditions improve or get worse? That answer is obvious. The worse it got, the more pleased they had to be.

POPSWill Tone of MSNBC Change w/Comcast Merger? I have a pretty basic Comcast package and ever since I heard people complaining that they removed the MEssNBC, I found it up on stn.#128, away from the more "regular" channels, so I'd advise one to scan their sets, you may still have it. (I can't believe I'm helping anyone find the thing;-) Anyway, I think it would be too obvious for Comcast to make it any more scarce. Maybe it's just as well to keep those nutjobs (Olbermann, Matthews, Maddow,etc.) all in one place where they think they've really got something goin' on. Otherwise who knows what kind of hell they'd raise with their whining.

POPSNewsflash! Independents Not All Moderates! Wow! Not surprisingly, David Brooks,"Tool for the mainstream meme-ology" pushes the old notion that all independents are moderates, the swing vote. John Zogby (Co-authored by Zeljka Buturovic, PhD) writes in Huffington Post.................lays out numbers showing otherwise.

POPSHealth Insurance Model & The Honor System
With the right personalities, I'm sure that there would be far more in common than not in this struggle to make the system of providing health care make sense and work for nearly everyone. I believe much of the opposition means well, deep down inside, and they would just as soon see all citizens provided with reasonable health care. For policymakers, as well as those who feel the need to understand, it is important to learn enough so as to balance a sense of empathy and caring with a knowledge that self-sufficiency and motivation are robbed and diminished every time we just submit to the government and let them say, "Come to papa." Of course, it's the intuitive part that lets one know that those are even factors important to investigate, I do believe. My insight of the day is nothing more than a given basic regarding the concept of insurance. There seems to be a widely held delusion that health care costs are of certain values but that suddenly the buying of insurance coverage someho

POPSAndrewSullivan PotCaseDismissed - SpecialTreatment Sullivan, Rangel, (likely,most of Congress) Presidential criminal cronies after talking transparency. All bullcrap and the hypocrisy continues. And serving out true justice fades further & further. I didn't even mention the Treasury, Fed, G.S., and the rest of the banks.

POPSMoodys Warns U.S. Aaa Rating In Danger if it doesn't reduce the debt - either with taxes or cutting expenditures. Notice they gave the administration "3-4 years" so as to allow for an Obama re-election before raising taxes. Then it's all hell breakin' loose for taxes. Either that or let the rating fall and apologize for the fact that we ever had a Triple-A in the first place and appeal to our "empathy for those nations that never had top rating. This would also fit into the progressive p.r. agenda.

POPSConstitution? Treaties? Sovereignty? The lamenting over the obstacle that is the Constitution goes on with Liberals and World-Order phony Conservatives (read: today's Republicans) alike. Puppet cable news pundits want to imprint an image of Independents as moderates - in the "middle" of either "fringe". It depends, doesn't it? Higher elites of both persuasions strive to find a way to topple the Constitution, maybe to slightly varying goals, while the Independents really want to maintain sovereignty and the Constitution. Doesn't that put Ind.'s on the Right, with Rep.'s & Dem.'s on the Left? Criticisms against Obama policies are met by Bush criticisms. Enough. That's the wrong paradigm. Isn't it ? Aren't they both the puppets for those of NO county? Of NO allegiance but to a World Gov.? Or am I all wet, here?

POPSLetter To TheWhiteHouse ~ re:TV MediaNews You've been trying to suppress the free marketplace of ideas since your primary campaign and you are still doing it. You guys are sooooo obvious. Why be afraid to go on FOX and, if they are wrong about you, set them straight? It seems like if you had real faith in your agenda, and if conservatives' notions of what you're up to are way off base, you'd be confident to go look people in the eye and calmly tell them where they are wrong about you, why they are wrong about your extremist associates and appointments, and clear up the issues. You could explain that your advisors aren't students of Mao, Marx, Alinsky and that you understand America is not where we forcibly "redistribute the wealth" for it's own sake.

POPSThe Golden State - Nice Duets, Great Song John Doe & Kathleen Edwards have a studio version that's a bit more rockin' than this acoustic one, and in which Kathleen's voice is really special. But this is good, too. Eddie Vedder & partner do a good job with it as well.

POPSOPHARMA - Politics Over The Greater Good That these people are still credited with the "best of intentions" proves that people either are not trying to REALLY pay attention, or their overall hope for human nature is very low - that this is really the most honest, open, well-intentioned that we should expect. WE SHOULD EXPECT AND DEMAND BETTER! These are dishonest, pompous, self-serving people and there ARE good people if only we could find them. CRAP! And after all the "hope", "change", and the chin-out, noble profile b**ls**t! F*****g SELLOUTS!!!

POPSGov't. Largely Responsible For Hi Insrnce.Costs This has several negative effects. One is that it decreases both competition and supply, both of which raise prices for consumers. This also means that states have the power to grant licenses to insurance companies, meaning that any new insurance company from its beginnings has to meet state-mandated standards. This is a huge barrier to entry, keeping newcomers out of what would otherwise be a highly competitive market and once again increasing prices for consumers. In a free market, profits are a signal telling more entrepreneurs to enter a market. More and more firms will enter the market until the profits have dropped low enough to discourage market entry. ............ Obama has said that under his current proposal, he would eliminate these state barriers.......... This completely ignores the fact that, under the necessary and proper clause, the government is only allowed to regulate those industries that it must to carry out its stated function.
