POPSThe levels of idiocy in the Mccain base A comment on a fact-check page. There are some folks who seem to be -- all I can call them is Retard-Brown Shirts. Obama is not a Muslim and even if he was -- not all Muslims are terrorists!

POPSObama's Staff Slips Up With Muslim Outreach Mr. LaBolt said campaign workers' efforts are aimed at acquaint Muslim voters with Sen. Obama's positions and to work on voter turnout. "We have a whole faith outreach effort that includes interacting with mosque leaders," he said. Nihad Awad, executive director of CAIR, also attended the session, as did the group's legislative director. The government named CAIR an unindicted coconspirator in the Justice Department's racketeering prosecution last year of alleged Hamas fund-raisers. CAIR said the designation was unjustified; the case ended in a mistrial, but is being brought again by the government. Mr. Awad declined to comment. Mr. Bray didn't respond to a request for comment. The Obama campaign said it couldn't comment on Mr. Asbahi's attendance at the session.

POPSThe Ironic Rule of Law Did they copy this from a US Justice Department press release? First they pirate our DVDs and now our legalistic dissembling! Pioneering torture policy authors like John Yoo are apt to be pretty steamed.

POPSCommunal Vs. Solo Fasting This op-ed from the Guardian is about fasting for Ramadan, which ended last week, but it's applicable to Yom Kippur, which is on Thursday. Which do you prefer -- fasting alone or fasting communally? When I fast, individual reflection and self-discipline are important...but more than anything, I like to feel like I'm a part of something bigger.

POPSJudge Orders Gitmo Prisoners Released!
Thank God. Seeing my country involved in arresting people without cause, not allowing them legal representation, communication with family, no visits from the International Red Cross, not giving them their day in court, holding them for 'indefinite detention," keeping them imprisoned -- in this case -- for seven years -- and documented torture and abuse of such prisoners -- it's all pretty disgusting. And more disgusting that these prisoners were also used for propaganda about how these alleged evil men were out to harm us. And disgusting that thick-headed rednecks, neocon neofascist, and other warmongers went around waving flags about all this and claiming "God was on their side." -- and accusing us as the one's being 'unpatriotic,' when we were the most patriotic of all. What sickness! What lies! DEFEAT ALL REPUBLICANS is now Step #1 Step #2 is seeing Bush and Cheney in jail; and all those who aided and abetted their crimes. The good news? -- this can be done.

POPSThe Constitution Lives! Almost killed by rebubbacans, making a comeback.
Members of the area's Uighur community reacted to the decision with jubilation. "We won!" one attendee exclaimed after the hearing, setting off a loud cheer. Scores of detainees are challenging their detentions in federal court after winning a Supreme Court ruling in June that gave them the right to have their cases reviewed by federal judges under the legal doctrine of habeas corpus. The government suffered a major setback in June when a federal appeals court found the evidence against one Uighur to be so weak that it compared the government's legal theories to a nonsensical 19th-century poem, Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark." The court ordered the man, Huzaifa Parhat, released, transferred or offered a new military hearing. The government chose not to retry Parhat and announced it would no longer treat him as an enemy combatant. It subsequently did the same for four others and added the final 12 late last month.

POPSInvestigator detained by Kenya after learning Obama muslim ties Does anyone know Obama has visited Pakistan, just before being mysteriously flooded with cash for attending expensive universities and purchasing a multi million dollar home? His two college roomates were Pakistani, who are now in charge of raising offshore campaign contributions for him? Michelle Obama's personal advisor is an Iranian. And Rezko arranged for Obama's first job as a lawyer - where is Rezko from? Syria. Beware this Trojan Horse.

POPSBritish Muslims 12th Century ideals. How can you be British and Muslim? If you cannot accept the ancient Laws of the land you live in, you cannot possibly assimilated into that society. If you aim is to change that society, then you have no legitimate right to be in that country. The Laws, writings and theories of centuries of the planets most forward thinking and innovative scholars are being washed down the drain of multiculturalism and political correctness. Again I say, Heathrow is still open.

POPSAnother Terrorist Hijack Plot Foiled You won't see this in our biased mainstream media - reminding us it is very much a dangerous world and ZerObama is not up to the job of Commander in Chief. He may talk the talk, but when it boils down to military action, this Hussein ZerObama isn't about to engage his fellow muslims. Beware this Trojan Horse.

POPS'There Is Absolutely No Reason for Islamophobia' Calls like that are welcome news to Yunus Ulusoy from the Center for Turkish Studies in Essen, which keeps track of the religiosity of Turkish Muslims. It's a demand, Ulusoy says, "that we've been making for decades because, for Muslims, faith is a very important part of their identity." In his opinion, if the school system doesn't pay any attention to this fact, it only hurts the chances of successfully integrating Muslims into German culture.

POPSMuslims on The March If we take the words of a Toronto judge to heart, the message is the same in every English speaking community around the World. Having just witnessed the Labour Party in Britain deny any culpability of British Muslims to mass murder, their reticence leads all with a brain to conclude they have abandoned the first remit of any Government, to defend the population against the treat from another. Res ipsa loquitur.

POPSIn praise of a brave woman-Nadia Hilou She won't be silenced when children are murdered. She won't be silenced when a Christian minority needs educational support. She won't be silenced when a family is in need - Christian, Muslim or Jewish. And, she won't be silenced by extremists who criticize her because she is a Palestinian working from inside the Israeli system with a mainstream Israeli party doing more than pandering to political emotions. Nadia Hilou threatens the status quo in the Arab community and especially its leadership

POPSGroup Claims Responsibility for Paki Marriott Bombing Interesting, while Pakistan blames Al Qaeda this "little known" group emerges (from Dubai) and takes responsibility. Interestingly they disclose what the MSM thus far has not: had targeted 250 U.S. Marines and NATO officials which he said had been at the hotel

POPSPC Going too Far Again we are presented with the dilemma of respecting other peoples rights to hold whatever beliefs they want and coercing people who don't hold those beliefs to adhere to them anyway.
