POPSOkay; so we’re back to Square One. Where did the money come from? That’s right. According to Biderman, the money did not come from (a) companies (“which were a huge net seller”) (b) retail investor funds, (c) retail investors, (d) foreign investors, or (e) pension funds. What about the hedge funds? Biderman: “We have no way to track in real time what hedge funds do, and they may well have shifted some assets into U.S. equities. But we doubt their buying power was enormous because they posted an outflow of $12 billion from April through November.” Okay; so we’re back to Square One. Where did the money come from?

POPS10 Reasons Why Republicans Will Win in 2010
CAP and TAX – Another massive tax increase on American families and small businesses. Ben Nelson’s Payoff – Ben Nelson sold his health care vote to Harry Reid for $300+ million in lower taxes for Nebraska. The $12 Trillion+ National Debt – Democrats in Congress spending money they don’t have. Mortgaging our children’s future. Nationwide Unemployment rate at 10% - The Democrats are spending money like it’s going out of style and yet they are ignoring policies that would create new jobs. The Government Takeover of Health Care - If the bill that comes out of Congress is signed into law, it will amount to a massive government expansion into our daily lives. It is the number one reason why Democrats should be defeated. Huck PAC is determined to lead the charge next year to regain Republican Majorities in the House and Senate. We will only support conservatives. We have a December online fundraising goal that we are $9,119 away from reaching. Will you make a donation today to

POPSFaith in Free-Market Capitalism Is Being Rewarded The biggest source of economic stimulus is not the $800 billion Barack Obama spending package. It's the $4.6 trillion of capital gains thrown off by the stock market over the past three quarters. This is investment money, and it also enhances consumer spending. As a result, jobs are likely to start rising early in 2010. The other source of economic stimulus is the amount of money Michael Moore invests in Dominos Pizza and Krispy Kreme, only later to bemoan those same corporations in which he owns shares. Michael Moore-on's movie in which he capitalistically makes money off of gullible liberals’ hatred of capitalism? Seriously, not only did that movie bomb, but the hippo-like hypocrite became enchanted by the ideals of socialism when he took an economics class while coked out of his mind. Using socialism to help revive a failing economy is like putting angry weasels down your pants because you need some rest.

POPSThe psychology of menus...seriously. I suppose it makes sense that at a time of financial stress for so many people, restaurant owners are doing whatever they possibly can to make the experience of laying out money for food less intimidating. That said, I think our national past time has shifted from baseball to figuring out how to get consumers to feel comfortable spending more money than they should.

POPSHOUSE OF FOOLS Get Out And Vote The European Union has an unelected President. The Security Counsel of the United Nations was not elected. Climate Change leaders are not elected, not democratic, not basing their decisions of science. Ponder for a moment. Why do they want your money if they can't save the world. ALL IS VANITY. Climate Change taxes are fraudulent. Don't give them your money unless they can save the world (which they can't). I believe that Kyoto was designed to keep the whole continent of Africa in a state of servitude because it thwarts it's development.

POPSSpending Godless Money As Americans evolve to reject religion and the ranks of atheism, agnosticism, and secular humanism continue to grow stronger, we may eventually achieve an enlightened government; one that supports the separation of state and church; one that respects the rights of individuals. Until then however, let's just keep on spending that "godless" money…. I don't know if this is legal or not, I just find it an interesting way to protest. Such a little circle, peaceful and quiet, yet the message it sends is loud and clear. Has anyone ever seen one of these bills?

POPSRUNNING OUT OF BULLETS “Why are we listening to any of those guys down there? They’re making our situation worse,” he said. “They said in writing yesterday the solution to our problem is to spend more money … that’s what got us into this problem: too much debt.” “That’s like saying to Tiger Woods, ‘you get another girlfriend and it will solve your problems’ or ‘five more girlfriends and you will solve your problems,’” he said. “We’re all going to pay the price for this in, one, two, three years,” Rogers added. “The next time that we have problems in the economy, which will not be too long, we don’t have any bullets left. We’ve shot everything we had to solve our problems.” “What are they going to do, quadruple the debt again? Print more money? We don’t have any trees left. We’re running out of trees.

POPSMcCain, Coburn Target 100 Stimulus Projects The duo, who have railed against “wasteful spending” in recent years, put out their “stimulus checkup” shortly before President Barack Obama made a speech at the Brookings Institution outlining new job-creation proposals. McCain, from Arizona, and Coburn, from Oklahoma, say the projects they’ve identified “raise questions about how stimulus money has been used so far.” The White House said it would look at the projects cited in the report but that it should be “taken with a grain of salt,” noting that Coburn’s earlier reports on stimulus spending have included errors. A spokesman for Coburn hit back, pointing out that the data used by the administration to estimate the impact of the stimulus hasn’t been perfect. “The stimulus office might want to revisit its job creation estimates before it lectures others about accuracy,” said John Hart.

POPSThe Something Awful/Paypal fiasco
More: I'm not going to tell people to close their Paypal accounts. I'm not going to say all their actions were completely unwarranted. I'm just presenting my experience with them and will allow you to draw your own conclusions. However, I harbor a fundamental disagreement with their business practice of assuming all their clients are filthy criminals who must repeatedly prove their innocence to a series of unmanned servers and computer systems. I do not support their ability to freeze entire accounts, take money from whoever they want at whatever time they want, and impose whatever arbitrary rules and regulations they deem necessary without having to answer to any organization. Every single cent in every single Paypal account is earning their company ungodly amounts of interest in their central bank account. They offer users credit cards and the chance to put your money into interest-generating accounts. So exactly why are they not under banking and FDIC rules again?

POPSYou Could go to Prison For Most Of This Advice Dear Bloggess, My boss never stops complaining. She's always coming over to my desk to interrupt me when I'm working to tell me about her headache, or her infected foot, or her sore neck, or a rash she has on her back. It's never ending. I can't get anything done, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up stabbing her for being so irritating. What to do? ~ Jen Next time your boss comes to complain say “Oh my God, that’s so hot” and when she’s all “Um…what?” say “I kind of have a fetish for sick people. Please..tell me more about your rash”. And when she does, roll your eyes back in your head with pleasure and then start writing shit down and when she asks about it just tell her you’re writing down all her symptoms for “later” when you’re alone and wink at her. Then ask if you can have a few minutes to yourself and shut the door. Then come out again and ask if you can see the rash. She’ll probably never talk to you again.
