POPSIf We Really supported the Troops...
Go to http://anysoldier.com/WhereToSend/ and then click on a soldier-contact's name, read the blurb he or she has posted about what his or her unit wants, and then click again to request a form (asking for your own addy and name) to get the appropriate address for that unit. You must not send porn, and you must not send packages that contain both food and soap/sunscreen/etc in the same box. No pork products. No anti-islamic tracts in bulk. No political content. No flea collars. No depictions of naked or partly naked people. No explosives, firearms, other shit that is illegal to mail anyway. Don't send chocolate, it melts. You must request the address to send your package to on the same day you mail it, so it's hard to really meet the requests. I am thinking of assembling a bunch of common cheap items, and boxing them up at the last minute. even someone as poor as me can spring for toothbrushes and lip balm, for crying out loud.

More than two weeks after the New York Times reported on the Penatgon's military analyst program to sell controversial policies such as the invasion of Iraq, the broadcast television news outlets implicated in the program are hoping to tough out the scandal by refusing to report it. Recently Media Matters of America (MMA) reported that, according to a search of the Nexis database, "the three major broadcast networks -- ABC, CBS, and NBC -- have still not mentioned the report at all." Congresswoman Rosa L. DeLauro and three dozen colleagues have sent a letter to the Department of Defense Inspector General calling for an investigation of this "propaganda campaign aimed at deliberately misleading the American public."

POPSLoose lips sink ships. In her preoccupation of trying to clinch the Democratic nomination Clinton, doesn't even try to curb her attempts at machismo. Hillary's loose lips will sink ships. I can just hear her mimic Dubya's "Bring em on!"... According to politicians like Hillary WE THE PEOPLE are all just a group of ding-a-lings... (This phrase was coined as a slogan during WWII as part of the US Office of War Information's attempt to limit the possibility of people inadvertently giving useful information to enemy spies. The slogan was actually 'Loose Lips Might Sink Ships. This was one of several similar slogans which all came under the campaigns basic message - 'Careless Talk Costs Lives'. ) Hillary's faux lips on the economy: Follow this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwWulcPmjBw

POPSFritzl Analysis: A window on a mind of evil and delusion "Fritzl's madness derives from an utter inability to comprehend the affective and emotional impact of what he has done. He knows it was wrong, but he will never know why it matters so much to the rest of society." I am utterly haunted by this case.
