POPSWant to see Obama's birth certificate? And look here: http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html for FactCheck.org's thorough rebuttal of the "it's a phony copy" issue. They have hand-held the original, and confirmed its validity with the State of Hawaii. Two more articles are cited in the clip. The radical right's refusal to admit the obvious here is becoming more and more like simple disloyalty.

POPSA Conservative For Obama I saw this clipped earlier, but I didn't realize the gravity of the endorsement. Wow, a publisher of the National Review saying, "But I now see that Obama is almost the ideal candidate for this moment in American history. I disagree with him on many issues. But those don’t matter as much as what Obama offers, which is a deeply conservative view of the world. Nobody can read Obama’s books (which, it is worth noting, he wrote himself) or listen to him speak without realizing that this is a thoughtful, pragmatic, and prudent man. "

POPSWorld wants Obama as president: poll Will Americans choose to lead the world, or will they once again squander the goodwill that the world would love to heap on the USA. What will they do? The countries most optimistic that an Obama presidency would improve relations were America's NATO allies, including Australia (62 per cent).

POPSObama's tire pressure remark - fact vs fiction McCain has responded to Obama's suggestion that we better maintain our cars in ways that promote fuel efficiency with childish (yet somehow effective) criticism. The amazing thing these days is that facts don't seem to matter. McCain is jumping on Obama with lies and accusations that, in my opinion, discredit his own reputation for running clean, dignified campaigns.

POPSRepublican Party in Shambles After Massive Losses.
Along with Obama's LANDSLIDE VICTORY, great gains have been won by the Democrats in both the House and Senate -- the greatest gains in over 80 years (since the Great Depression & FDR's election). The Democrats now have a large majority in both the House and the Senate and the White House. It's a sea change. (Note: Because it's part of the story > Some Republican SmearHeads have started to tell the TV audience what Obama should do -- and said that within a few months the Democrats will be fighting among themselves) Other TV pundits told these Republicans they should wake up and smell the coffee, look to see what they could possibly do to put their broken party back together -- that Obama didn't need their advise and there were no difference between the Democratic House, the Democratic Senate and future President Obama. SmearHeads - Yuck. LANDSLIDE VICTORY -- That's the real story: major epic awesome historic victory. (I hate to even mention the SmearHeads words.,, b

POPSMiners strike over NRA anti-Obama harassment After union votes to back Obama, company lets NRA on grounds to change their minds. Next door in VA, a flier circulates among coal miners: "Barack Obama Won't Take Away Your Gun, But John McCain Will Take Away Your Union."

POPSI'll Take Hope Over Fear and Loathing, Thank You Very Much I am by training a historian. My focus of study has been 20th century Europe and the rise of fascism. The "othering' taking place on the right and from the Republican candidates themselves is horrifying to behold. Who's to blame for the economic crisis? Barney Frank (faggot!), ACORN (niggers!), Barack Hussein Obama (half-breed Muslim!). I see it on the internet, I see it on TV, I see it in newspapers, I see it here on ClipMarks: race-baiting, fear-mongering, scapegoating. Enough! Not here! Not now! Not ever again! If I may quote Obama, "Not this time!

POPSCountry First? Really? "Will the disgraceful and desperate attacks hurt Obama? Maybe, maybe not. But one thing is clear: they will hurt our country."

POPSObama Gives Victory Speech: Hundreds of Thousands in Chicago Awesome... Frigging awesome. (I guess it can be found on YouTube tomorrow) Black leaders from the Civil Rights struggle days of Martin Luther King have been on TV. They all say the same thing: They never thought they would live to see such a day. And with pride say that now their children can see pictures of a black family in the White House. And this is all they wanted, every wanted: equality, full participation in America, to see their story as fully integrated and seen as part of the American story. And then, these old hardened men, they cry.
