POPSA rose by any other word would smell as sweet. I came upon this article while looking for another article (happens all the time)... I love learning about language and usage of swearwords and why we say them so often. They are just words but for some reason... they seem to relieve that awful feeling of anger, frustration, annoyance, fear, hopelessness and even a stubbed toe on occasion. What would we do without them... especially since Bush, Cheney and the NEOCONS. This is one administration who sure as h*ll, are full of the s**t from the bull and without those nifty little naughty words to release anger, tension and revulsion we would all be as psychotic as they.

POPSHate Limbaugh or Limbaugh's hate! Dangerous or Laughable? (I chose both but the former rather than the latter is more direct... One Dangerous Dude!) ~~~~~~~ It was no surprise that Limbaugh would call for riots at the Democratic National Convention in Denver to embarrass the Democrats. Limbaugh -- and his fellow purveyors of hate on the airwaves -- are dangerous demagogues whom pro-democracy Americans too easily dismiss as poltroonish shills for the entrenched powers. It's a regular staple of the millionaire right-wing echo chamber to use the explicit or implicit language of violence. In fact, the entire "frame" of everyone from Sean Hannity to Bill O'Reilly to Rush Limbaugh is to convince their listeners that people who don't agree with these "pundits of patriotism" are the enemy and dangerous to America.

POPSCanada Refuses Stay to Resisters of an Illegal War
There are many people alive today because Canada gave them refuge from another felonious war so long ago in Vietnam. Now, they are turning their backs to resisters even though they themselves, decided not to fight an illegal war. Hmmm, I wonder why? In a free country, one should have the right to protest an unjust war but we are not a free country. The conscientious objectors have no where to turn.. They can't go back to their own country and Canada won't allow them to stay within their borders. Isn't it ironic that Bush and Cheney have illegally kidnapped and transported people out of different countries to deliver them for torture, abroad and have yet to receive punishment for their criminal actions. Yet a resister to an unlawful preempted war gets the book thrown at him. You must fight, and possibly die even if it is only for a neocon pipedream... Something is so wrong with this picture. I sure hope President Bush enjoyed his game of golf today! :mad:

POPSHEY DICK, ANYMORE BRILLIANT IDEAS, DICK?
Recently, I received this message via my youtube account: "Our family band turned my wife Susan's Protest Sign for Cheney - Hey Dick! Anymore Brilliant Ideas? - into a rock song here is the link http://www.thejkirks.com/music-31.html (cut and paste into browser.) Its straight up rock which I thought some of the folks you know might enjoy and maybe there would be some interest in using the song somehow. What if we had a chance to interrogate Cheney? How would we approach it? What Would Cheney Do? Enjoy. John" I downloaded the song from their site: http://www.thejkirks.com/music-31.html and thought it interesting. I knew I would be able to use it soon and today I came across an article calling for Congress to filibuster and end this dreadful Iraq war. http://www.filibusterforpeace.org/ THE PETITION READS: "We should start now to talk about filibustering for the saving of lives and of our country." John Kerry, 1971 http://www.filibusterforpeace.org/ Number of signers as of 09/10/07:
