POPSA JOKE THAT IS TOO TRUE TO BE FUNNY. Finally some clever person put Republicans in the middle of the light bulb screwing joke and IT HITS THE OLD PROVERBIAL NAIL ON IT'S OLD "IF THE SHOE FITS, WEAR IT" BLOCKHEAD! The only screwing light bulb joke EVER without humor! Just to be fair... Here is one about Dems screwing a light bulb: How many Democrats does it take to change a light bulb? One to change the bulb, six to talk about how wonderful it's going to be when the new bulb is screwed in, and ten to argue for increased funding for solar lighting research.:eek:

POPSChristian Child Abuse caught on tape Listen to this audio of a 9 year old girl being mentally abused. She is being forced to accept that Harry Potter put the devil in her. This is child abuse. People like this needs to be locked up, but because of a taboo we allow on discussing religion people like this are allowed to continue, often encouraged. Pardon me while I go throw up now

POPSA Brief History Of Political Correctness
In other words, facts do not bother the true believers. Their imaginary world is the real reality, the real world is only a temporary reality which is about to be changed. As Marx said, philosophers try to explain the world, the problem (for social scientists) is to change it. The particular ideology of the globalist left is traceable initially to Friedrich Engels and his book ˜The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State (1884), and it goes basically like this. Once upon a time man lived in a state of blissful communism where there was no hate, no crime, no violence or war, only universal love. This was possible because there was no private ownership of property. Everything was shared by all and allocated according to the principle ˜from each according to their ability, to each according to their need. In fact nobody laid personal claim to anything, not even their own body. There were no moral rules or restrictions, everybody was bisexual and

POPSIsraeli Troops Humiliate Palestinians - and Put it on YouTube I'm more than appalled at the behaviour of the Israeli border guards. To make things even worse, youtube has decided to pull this video and others, showing this brutality. If we're ever going to be able to condemn and stop this kind of abuse, we have to made aware of it first and youtube's blatant censorship of this, and anything even remotely "uncomfortable" to them, is the equivalent of modern day book-burning! "Jewish Voices for Peace" appeal to everyone, to ask youtube to put the videos back up. You can read more about it and send youtube a letter, here: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/301/t/9047/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=1990

POPSOrthodox Jewish youths burn New Testaments. What next? Wonder how this went down with the Christian Zionist fundamentalists? Are they in rapture over the burning of the new testaments? So your welcome to boast the Zionist economy but don't bring your bible. So now we have the torture, the concentration camps, the assassinations, the ethnic cleansing, the Gaza prison, the slow starvation, the economic strangulation, the racism, the Arab holocaust to match the Nakba of 60 years ago, and on and on. And all with America's blessing. What next? Burning the Christians?

POPS Political Correctness Must Die . . . or by trying to censor the Internet. The particular ideology of the globalist left is traceable initially to Friedrich Engels and his book ˜The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State"™ (1884) The origins of political correctness are traceable to Germany, and the Institute for Social Research, established in 1923 by Felix Weil, Marxist son of a millionaire German trader, in association with Frankfurt University. The work of the Institute, which came to be called the Frankfurt School, was to translate Marxism from economic into cultural terms. Political Correctness as it is known today was created by that Institute. Essentially the task had been completed by the end of the 1930s. When the Nazis came to power in Germany in 1933 they closed down the Frankfurt School and its members, mostly Jews, fled to New York where the Institute was re-established with help from Columbia University . . .

POPSMoses Was High on Drugs, Israeli Researcher Says
The description in The Book of Exodus of thunder, lightening and a blaring trumpet, according to Shanon, are the classic imaginings of people under the influence of drugs. As for the vision of the burning bush, well obviously that too was a drug-fueled hallucination, according to Shanon. "In advanced forms of ayahuasca inebriation," he wrote, "the seeing of light is accompanied by profound religious and spiritual feelings." Shanon admits he took some of these drugs while in the Amazon in 1991. "I experienced visions that had spiritual-religious connotations," he said. The initial reaction to this controversial theory from Israel's religiously orthodox community and the powerful rabbis who lead it was less than enthusiastic. Orthodox rabbi Yuval Sherlow, quoted by Reuters speaking on Israel radio, said: "The Bible is trying to convey a very profound event. We have to fear not for the fate of the biblical Moses, but for the fate of science."

POPSGung-Ho To Be The Romans If you think the insurgency in Iraq is bad, Madden writes, then you should have lived in Jerusalem in the first two centuries and dealt with Jewish terrorists who believed that their allies the Romans represented an evil that must be destroyed at any cost. The Romans, after much bloodshed, finally dealt with Jewish factionalism with brute force - legions retook Jerusalem, destroyed the Holy Temple and forced Jews to focus their religion more on synagogues and rabbinic studies than the Temple itself, blunting some of the messianic zealotry responsible for the violence. Madden believes that the lesson for America from this ancient insurgency is that the war on terror must be fought on the religious front as well. The only way to win both militarily and politically is to modernize Islam as the Romans changed Judaism to fit into their empire.

POPS Buy It Before They Ban It Sales of Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" have almost tripled over the first seven weeks of this year compared with sales for the same period in 2008. This continues a strong trend after bookstore sales reached an all-time annual high in 2008 of about 200,000 copies sold.

POPSThey're Lining Up At The HOG TROUGH . . . Again, Already, Yet So Soon ! ! ! The nerve of these maggots. Making 8-digit salaries, flying around in $36 million private jets... and coming to the HOG TROUGH asking for $25 billion in bail out money. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! The auto industry in US is dead... let them go into backruptcy. Then maybe the unions will buy them out (at book market price after bankruptcy) it will only cost about $2 billion... much better deal than having the tax payers foot a $25 billion bill. The union can then decide who will run it (no more 8-digit salaries) and what they will manufacture. My suggestion is that they re-tool to produce wind turbine generators, solar electrical equipment... and/or even bicycles. Let the Communist Chinese take over the auto industry... they deserve it... and if they don't make electric cars, etc., they will soon be bankrupt also.

POPSCensoring Iraq Michael Yon went to Iraq initially at the behest of military friends who insisted that what Americans were seeing on the news wasn't an accurate reflection of the reality on the ground. Two of my friends died on consecutive days. When the charred remains of American contractors were strung from a bridge in Falluja, I put aside a book I was writing to attend the funerals. In Colorado we laid to rest a Special Forces friend who'd been killed in Samara; then on to Florida for the funeral of the friend who'd been murdered and mutilated in Falluja. A photo of the dang ling corpses won a Pulitzer. I purchased and borrowed the equipment required for the journey. Camera, satellite phone, laptop, body armor, helmet, and so on. Like most of the people who would later be called "alternative media," I bore these expenses myself, including the flights to Kuwait.

POPSFlames of Hate I never was a racist in SA - but one cannot suppress the feeling of horror, disgust, contempt, and feelings close to hated towards the ppl responsible for the attrocities shown in this slideshow. What is this world coming to?! - our planet is being destroyed, precious animals becoming extinct, murder, rape, crime , drugs, proverty, hunger, human trafficking, the most horrific natural disasters to mention just a few are the order of the day. Yet ppl still deny the existance of God and what was prophesied in the the book of Revelations in the Bible - surely we are living in those end times.

POPSBaptist Church to Burn Bibles This one certainly belongs in the LOONY BIN because of the bazaar reasoning of this apparently misguided congregation. I wish I could say that this is an isolated case but I know far too many "KING JAMES ONLY" adherents who would probably applaud this behavior. In my post To King James or Not to King James I wrote at great length on this issue. There has been an ongoing controversy surrounding this issue, but the way this old bird sees things, the crazy antics of this Baptist church makes me wonder if reading the KING JAMES bible causes otherwise rational people to loose all reason. This pastor and his 14 followers have certainly flown over the cuckoos nest. And that is how I see it! Eagle Out!
