POPSOink-oink piggies! Get your snouts in the tax trough. Shameful. Business as usual. And it's ALL about business - government getting into our business to fund their business interests. I'm glad that our Texas senators called bullshit on this pork-laden, unconstitutional monstrosity. Yeah. I know, I know, I KNOW! Republicans do it, too. The problem is with the entire Congress. They are out for their own best interest - not ours. Vote them all out!

POPSGoverment Assistance for Libby Montana The Senate health care bill includes expanding Medicare to those people harmed by exposure to asbestos from the vermiculite mine in Libby, Montana. I, for one, am glad to see the government finally moving to assist these people who have been so devastated by this problem.

POPSMesothelioma Lawyers Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos. In this disease, malignant cells develop in the mesothelium, a protective lining that covers most of the body's internal organs. Its most common site is the pleura (outer lining of the lungs and chest cavity), but it may also occur in the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity) or the pericardium (a sac that surrounds the heart).

POPSWe Owe Veterans and Active Duty Warriors Better Than This Cheney's old firm let their sub-contractors expose US soldiers and Iraqi's to a burning toxic waste pit that will cause years worth of injuries and illness. Cotracting out is good for profiteers like the former- Vice President and his buddies but an evil brew for our troops.

POPSBan child labor in the entertainment industry
If you view fame as a childhood poison, like asbestos, or charcoal dust, fame acts with life-shortening effect, and its impact is magnified by higher doses and earlier exposures…besides early death, fame has a dose-dependent, and age-dependent association (perhaps causality) for two other highly destructive outcomes - substance abuse and mental health disorders. These high rates are also likely increased by earlier exposure to fame.… There is also considerable anecdotal evidence that a child who is subjected to intense fame becomes developmentally delayed at the first age of exposure, resulting in delayed or even arrested maturation. The famous person is, for all intents and purposes, arrested at the age of earliest fame, lacking age-appropriate maturity, insight and/or impulse control… from an epidemiologic standpoint…we, as a society, by allowing child-labor in the entertainment industry, are enabling, if not causing, the early death and destruction of our most gifted member

POPSObama’s Auto Policy: All In The Democratic Family through the end of 2006 to lobby Congress, the White House, and the Department of Labor on a handful of bills regarding asbestos litigation and compensation. What was Quadrangle’s stake in asbestos legislation? Many hedge funds invested in ompanies damaged by asbestos lawsuits. These funds then lobbied for legislation that would alleviate some of the liability the companies faced, thus boosting companies’ stock value. Alternatively, a hedge fund could make the opposite play: Watch a vulnerable company’s stock rise as prospects improve for asbestos legislation, then short the company and lobby to kill the bill. So Rattner understands how public policy can create private profits. It should come as no surprise, then, that his auto plan involves upending bankruptcy law and precedent in favor of a system in which the winners and losers are chosen by politicians or their appointed “czars.”

POPS HARDFIRE! Are the Paranoids Coming to Get Us?
Air Force One Well Dave, I'm going to have to say both. There's no denying that Tony Iommi's chunky lead and Geezer Butler's thundering bass set a lasting standard for headbanging power trios. But there's also no denying there's something very unsettling about today's body politic. Just the other day I decided to drop into lower Manhattan for a surprise low altitude fly-by photo op. I was expecting friendly smiles and waves, but instead that crowd in Battery Park started scurrying around like a herd of caribou underneath Sarah Palin's helicopter. I mean, what's up with that? Dave Burge Psychologists say some New Yorkers may still have lingering memories of 9-11. Air Force One 9-1-what? Dave Burge Nevermind. How are you coping with the trauma of that painful incident? Air Force One Well Dave, I have to say my self-esteem took a hit. It made me realize that Jumbo Jet-Americans still face an uphill battle against paranoid transportational profiling.
