POPS"Health Care 'Change' You Shouldn't Believe In" "When the government has people dependent on a medical system it starts to treat them like property and tells them how to live. It also makes decisions on whether they live or die by telling them whether or not they will get an operation." "The change Obama wants for America is fundamentally inhumane and dangerous. Real change begins next November when we clean house and start sending politicians home. Take away those who vote for his bills and he becomes a paper tiger with the words “One-Termer” on his forehead."

POPSGov. Rick Perry at the Austin TEA party "In an appearance at the Texas Capitol last week, Perry joined state lawmakers in pushing a resolution that supports states' rights protected in the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. He said the federal government has become oppressive in its size and interference with states." "After praising veterans in the cheering crowd Wednesday, he said: 'I'm just not real sure you're a bunch of right-wing extremists. But if you are, we're with you.'" "For her part, Hutchison issued a newspaper opinion piece Wednesday criticizing the Democratic-led Congress for spending on the stimulus bill and the $1 trillion appropriations bill." "'On April 15 -- Tax Day -- some in Congress may need a reminder of just who is underwriting this spending: the American taxpayer. I am deeply concerned over the swelling tax burden that will be imposed on all Texas families,' she wrote."

POPS"House to vote on 90% tax for AIG bonuses" I think it is crap that many of these guys/gals would take bonuses after what their institutions have gone though this last year, however, the government levying such taxes is criminal. I applaud those that have chosen to give back their bonuses. I know I would be tempted to "take the money & run." So, "CHEERS" to those returning the bonuses & "JEERS" to the government trying to control everyone & everything. This country is becoming more Orwellian every day, it seems.

POPS"Obama Vows Crackdown on Earmarks" There is a great video on the site that I could not clip for some reason. "No choice" Really?! Am I mistaken but doesn't he have the power to veto? I also love how he blames the previous Congress instead of "the buck stops here" approach. Quite typical. Everything bad in this world apparently can be blamed on the Bush administration. The rest I'm just too flabbergasted (yet not surprised) to comment on.
