POPSSen. Shelby on Obama: 'I Haven't Seen Any Birth Certificate' Apparently, the only reason Sen. Richard Shelby hasn't seen Obama's birth certificate is because someone hasn't grabbed him by the back of his empty head and forced him to look at it . It's been all over online for months and months now. Hey Alabama, you're represented by the biggest goddam gullible fool in the entire Senate -- and not just because Larry Craig is gone.

POPSLarry Craig's Denials Continue to Be Denied The louder he claims about his being straight to the core, the more men come out and report having had sexual encounters with him. Larry Craig just doesn't get it, does he? He really seems to believe that his denials, no matter how clear the evidence, that he is not gay, will obscure all allegations of his practices in private. As I have said in the past, I do not believe in entrapment, and I am not please with the way the police proceeded with his case, however, his constant lying does not help his cause, and it only, once again, shows how much self-loathing he possesses.

POPSHall of Shame? What's wrong with this picture? And don't get me wrong. I don't care what Craig's sexual orientation happens to be. What should be of concern to all people is the enormous hypocrisy that he and others in politics have exhibited.

POPSLouisiana GOP State Senator has "A Wide Stance" - Larry Craig Alert More: "The report states that DiFatta watched a man use the bathroom while peering through a hole in a bathroom stall. The man held DiFatta until police arrived, at which time he was issued the misdemeanor summons and ordered to appear in court. In the second incident, Jefferson Parish deputies working an undercover detail in a men's bathroom at Dillard's at Lakeside Shopping Center in March 2000 stopped DiFatta after he indicated a desire to engage in sex with an undercover deputy in an adjoining bathroom stall, according to an interoffice memorandum written by Sgt. Keith Conley, one of the deputies involved in the investigation.

POPSDemocrats Cheer Republican stalwart homophobe decides to remain. I bet the Democrats are secretly clapping their hands in glee while the Repubs are gnashing their collective teeth and wondering what hair shirt they'll have to don next.

POPSLarry Craig Breaks His Promise and Refuses to Resign His Senate Seat First he's guilty then he's not. He announces he's gonna quit and then he stays. The Republicans in the Senate are having apoplexy over this guy, who they thought they would be well rid of at the end of September, but he has decided to stay out the full his remaining term. So, now the Republicans have another worry on their plate for next year's elections, which is shaping up to be a nightmare for their party. Several high profile senators and congresspersons are not going to run for another term. There are scandals being investigated, and now Senator Craig says he is gonna stay and keep his sordid story on the front burner right through to November 08. It couldn't happen to a nicer group of pols.

POPSTwo Republicans - Two Misdemeanors - Two Different Outcomes This editorial makes an interesting point. I think another interesting comparison is between Craig, who is most likely gay and was most likely trying to find a willing sex partner, and David Vitter, another family values conservative who apparently hired prostitutes in Louisiana and DC and who was not pressured to resign.

POPSNo terrorism - just war? A pretty good piece on how pathetic liberals are in prosecuting a war. As the 6th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, and bin Laden gloats and lectures incoherently, the liberals, blind as always, seek to hold on to their imaginary utopia. All that utopia boils down to is denial of reality and surrender.
