POPSIran to Israel: "Go Ahead, Make My Day" Attack our facilities and war starts. US Admiral (a stand-in Liar who replaced the resisting and valiant Admiral Fallon, who called Gen Petreus a "chickensh*t" for kissing up to Bush) then lies saying Iran will attack Israel...while Iran has attacked no other country in over 200 years while Israel and the US have attacked many. Listen to this Democracy Now podcast with Seymour Hersh (NY Times) about how Israel cannot attack Iran without US involvement (i.e. American troops on the ground necessary for such operation, dying for Israeli aggression).

POPSThe philosophy of kissing Kafkaesque kiss -- a kiss that starts out feeling like it's about to transform you but ends up just bugging you. Sartrean kiss -- a kiss that you worry yourself to death about even though it really doesn't matter anyway. Cartesian kiss -- A particularly well-planned and coordinated movement: "I think, therefore, I aim." In general, a kiss does not count as Cartesian unless it is applied with enough force to remove all doubt that one has been kissed. movement involving greater nose-to-nose contact, but colder Nietzscheian kiss -- "she/he who does not kiss you, makes your lust stronger."

POPSNew rights for terror detainees as deeply split Supreme Court rules It isn't hard to figure out why the right wingers are all in an uproar over this--you see it gives rights to human beings that aren't Amerikans and that's unthinkable because if we actually see our "enemies" (anyone not Amerikan or kissing our leader's butt) as HUMAN BEINGS and not just some vile brown monkeys like we're supposed to. How sad is that? What has Amerika become? Are we so vile as to deny basic rights to everyone not born here? And when theyu are given the barest of rights--not freedom, juist a chance at Justice--The bile that comes from the Right wing, from Scalia to Giuliani to Limbaugh is so odious, I may gag.

POPSMcCain's Ass-Kissing Gets Ridiculous That's right, everyone on Team McCain has been a Hillary-backer all along! Baghdad Johnny's blog guru Michael Goldfarb stops just short of saying he would've dropped out if Hillary got the nom. He's that desperate for ex-Clinton voters. If you're thinking of backing McCain, ask yourself this question -- does the McCain campaign think you're stupid or do they hope you're stupid? Seriously, it's got to be one or the other.

POPSHeaven Forbid Parents Should Talk with their Kids
Being gay, not only does what happened here piss me off, but the reaction of some of the people does even more. The argument is that some people are uncomfortable seeing gay people kiss in a public setting because they'll have to explain it to their kids. Well dumb-asses, as parents you have to explain most things to your kids. Kids are inquisitive. If they see something they haven't seen before or don't understand something, they're going to ask. If they see a handicapped person, they'll stare and either ask the person or their parents what's wrong with that person. They want an explanation. There's nothing wrong with that. If the argument is that parents shouldn't be forced to explain something to their kids, should we not allow anything that a kid might ask about to be done in public? Why does that man have one arm? Why do we have to stop at red lights? Why is the sky blue? If this argument holds, should we basically keep kids in a little dark box so they can't s

POPSDublin Zoo: Nature's Way is Best Way I was reminded of this while visiting last week. I'm a member and had been informed of this in our newsletter. In the brand new extensive Zoo area, two new caves have been born. I love visiting my relatives with my grandchild.

POPSBest Runway Falls - Models ‘Kissing the Floor’ Modeling is a tough job. Walking around in sky-high stilletos while the world's most judgmental fashion critics are watching is no easy feat, especially when you 'kiss the floor'. It’s sad when people fall down and hurt or embarrass themselves, but be honest… it’s pretty freaking funny too.

POPSUN Peacekeeprs, Aid Workers Sexually Abusing Kids This is one of the most disgusting reports that i have heard in awhile. These children are already traumatized enough to have these perverts go over there and make it worse. They need to start screening their applicants more.

POPSGay Smoochie Sparks 911 Call "Yes, they sent a patrol car down there, and the officer, after calling his superior (the Birmingham PD was in on the 20/20 experiment) backed down, but told the couple Just don’t do that in public. The remarks of two Birmingham women passersby when 20/20 has a lesbian couple sit on the bench are predictable. That’s below the fold. When Leslie and Ashby sit, hold hands and snuggle, two local women volunteer their thoughts about the PDA: “I just don’t want to see the same sex kissing.” “It’s not what we say, it’s what God says. The chances of them going to heaven may not be very good if they continue this lifestyle.” Am I surprised? No. There are definitely some places in my home state that I would NEVER do a public display of affection with another woman. However, I can easily do the same display of affection with my husband and that is what bothers me. It all comes down to what is acceptable to society. What a shame.

POPSThe Nun With a Switchblade
"On January 18 of that year, prior to their appearance on stage at President Lyndon B. Johnson's Inaugural Gala, Julie Andrews and Carol Burnett were observed kissing passionately in public in a Washington hotel. The clinch, which both women later claimed was a stunt staged to amuse their friend, actor and movie director Mike Nichols, was witnessed by the President's wife, Lady Bird Johnson, who unexpectedly stepped out of the hotel elevator at that moment. This incident, sadly, is missing from Dame Julie's new book, in which she says of her chum Carol, "'I loved all that she was, all that she exuded - we bonded instantly," adding: "I lost my own inhibitions and felt free beside her." OMG!! Doesn't sound like a "stage stunt" to me. And I'll tell you what. My gaydar is pretty darn good and something about Ms. Burnette screams out BISEXUAL to me. But what a life Ms. Andrews has had eh? So different from her carefully planned public persona. No one can know our struggles.
