POPSDo we get wiser with age? "Is age a prerequisite for wisdom, though? We all know a few elderly people who lack wisdom, while we may know few young people that have wisdom in spades. People certainly aren't always at peak brainpower in old age; after all, when wrinkles begin appearing on the face, it usually means that wrinkles have started disappearing on the brain. The brain shrinks slightly with age, and aging leads to a normal decline in cognitive function that may eventually bloom into dementias such as Alzheimer's disease".

POPSNow it's "Cool America" "I think that the election of Senator Obama would send an extraordinary signal to the rest of the world," the former head of Britain's Conservative Party said, describing an Obama victory as "the most powerful declaration of what America at its best has stood for - the most globalized country in the world - because America is made up of the rest of the world."

POPSTime to scrub the scum from the bottom of the barrel Normally I don't make clips of other clippers, especially the ignorant, abusive or stupid, but considering that we have had 7 long years of this filth, it is time we stood up and said: SHOVE IT! Just because you have no self-respect doesn't mean we have to put up with your stupidity. I now expect more of this coming from the viral elements of American society. Brace yourself, it will get ugly.

POPS"Wasilla hillbillies looting Neiman Marcus" NEWSWEEK has also learned that Palin's shopping spree at high-end department stores was more extensive than previously reported. While publicly supporting Palin, McCain's top advisers privately fumed at what they regarded as her outrageous profligacy. One senior aide said that Nicolle Wallace had told Palin to buy three suits for the convention and hire a stylist. But instead, the vice presidential nominee began buying for herself and her family -- clothes and accessories from top stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus. According to two knowledgeable sources, a vast majority of the clothes were bought by a wealthy donor, who was shocked when he got the bill. Palin also used low-level staffers to buy some of the clothes on their credit cards.

POPSHow Barack Knocked the Satire Out of Me Man, that son-of-a-gun can give a speech. I can hardly wait for the inaugural. BTW, or perhaps not btw, it was a speech that got him here in the first place: at the Democratic convention in 2004. I remember watching him, riveted (I was a speechwriter myself, in the Coolidge administration), thinking, “Wow. Where did this guy come from?” I wrote in the New York Times (I know, I know: the height of vanity, quoting yourself): “Barack Obama is the Tiger Woods of American politics.” Ahem. You read it there first.
