POPSObama fufils campaign promise - Large Troop Deployment to Iraq Oh wait that's not right, is it? "I found this a bit shocking considering the President’s promise to remove our troops from Iraq as quickly as possible. Why then are we deploying the most troops since WWII? I decided to check regarding other National Guard units. A quick Google of ‘national guard historic deployment’ yielded countless results. It seems almost every state is or will be participating in sending a “Historic” amount of troops to Iraq. “The most since WWII”, several sources are quoted. Here are just a few of the stories: http://www.thisweeknews.com/live/content/marysville/stories/2009/08/07/0809madeploy_ln.html?type=rss&cat=&sid=104 http://www.wrdw.com/home/headlines/53032582.html http://readme.readmedia.com/news/show/New-York-Army-National-Guard-Troops-Deploy-for-Urban-Warfare-Training/769564 and the list goes on and on."

POPSHow Barack Obama Played the Race Card and Blamed Hillary Clinton February 27, 2008
The Obama mass mailings also attempt to appeal to Ohio's labor vote by claiming that Clinton believed that the North American Free Trade Agreement, signed in 1993 by President Bill Clinton, was a "'boon' to our economy." More falsehood: In fact, Clinton had not said that; Newsday originally applied the word "boon" and has now noted the Obama campaign's distortion. In this campaign, Clinton has called for a moratorium on all trade agreements until they are made consistent with labor and environmental standards-- Ignoring all that, the Obama flyer features an alarming photograph of closed plant gates, having no connection to any action of Senator Clinton's, as well as the dubious quotation about her from Newsday in 2006. Newsday has criticized "Obama's use of the quotation" as "misleading ... an example of the kind of slim reeds campaigns use to try and win an office." As insidious as these tactics are, though, the Obama campaign's most effective . . . . .

POPSAmount Obama received from AIG: Zero! Employees of AIG - a different matter - gave quite a bit, but not as much as they gave Bush in 04. And the #3 winner from AIG employees in 08? John McCain. If you contributed to the campaign of a public official at your work, would it be accurate to say that the company you work for made the contribution?

POPSObama: More Political Capital Than Reagan? When people talk about this "historical election" what most people hear is "First African-American President" but there is a great deal more than just that about this election which was historical.

POPSCrowds Mob White House, Time Square, Chicago, MLK's Church, Streets
When I saw the TV spot of a mob surrounding a car on the street I had the thought/memory of some riot, the mob shaking the car, overturning it, pulling out the driver and beating them (the past). What was going on? -- The woman in the car came upon the cheering crowd, her own joy exploded, she stopped the car, got out, started singing -- the crowd gathered around her and all sang on the street. Thousand spontaneously streamed to the White House, waved flags, pressed against the gates and lustily chanted: "Yes, we can! Yes, we can!" NOBODY alive has every seen anything like this. MLK's church in Georgia - thousands gathered inside and when the news of victory was announced a chanting a roar went up so strong is could have blown off the roof. Sort of like a World Cup Victory Celebration --- except that is was 4828 kilometers long. (or something like that) P.S. This slideshow on this page, 38 pics, is my favorite. Jubilation is what it was, and I've never used that wo

POPSOut-Of-State Students Working With "Vote For Change" An entire houseful of young, non-Ohioan Democrat activists have used the Brownlee Avenue address to register themselves to vote in the Buckeye State and secure absentee ballots under extremely shady circumstances — all while mobilizing a large effort to register thousands of others for absentee and early voting. The activists are leaders of a group called “Vote From Home ‘08.” The group is self-identified as having “extensive experience with political organizing, election administration, and Democratic politics.” They were hailed as the “Justice League” by a Daily Kos blogger. My friends at Palestra.net, a network of young reporters who have been doing the voter and registration fraud reporting that the MSM has been slow to do, have a breaking investigative report on how several members of the Democrat Vote From Home team — all Rhodes, Marshall, Fulbright, and Truman Scholars studying abroad. http://www.palestra.net/

POPSMcCain pushes $300 billion mortgage plan I def. think he is Fracking high on something. First, this "plan" would piss off a lot of people who bought houses they could afford and would then watch others who bought houses they could not afford (granted given bad advice/loans) and have taxpayers bail them out so they can stay in homes they really should not be in, in the first place. If there had been oversight in the govt and better regulation, none of these people would be in the situation they are in because it would have been a crime for these douche bag mortgage brokers and others to pitch them and give them the loans. So now this guy wants to take another $300 billion on top of the almost trillion the tax payers have already put into this mess. What a fracking idiot.

POPSMedia Still Hasn't Told America Who Obama Really Is My viscera knows who this cat is... and a good indication is his televised Freudian slip when he looks in the camera and without flinching says "...my muslim faith..." This bird is an al Qaeda sleeper cell and a Trojan Horse aimed at destroying our Nation.

POPSWhat Rich Conservatives Want Carly Fiorina's statements were only gaffe's in that they lifted the curtain to show the wizard. As evidenced by Carly her comments, the conservative elite actually hold the government in very, very low regard. It is their position that the role of government is to be punks, to be puppets, stooges. She clearly states that NONE of those running for the president of the United States of America are capable of running a corporation. This is what she believes. And, I think this is what the conservative elite believes. They believe that they are the engine that makes the world go round. They believe that the roll of the government is to let them do what they do, how they what to do it and when they want to do it. As I write this I am realizing it is not even a very radical statement. Carly Fiorina's statements were only gaffe's in that they lifted the curtain to show the wizard.

POPSMost wet behind the ears, Sarah Palin 4 President I am still in a state of shock over McCain's pick for a running mate. On the Internet there is a site (http://www.inews3.com/landing.php) where you can put in your own name for President and a propaganda video will appear announcing you or anyone you choose, as a candidate for president of the USA. Using Sarah Palin name is as apropos as any Jane/John Schmo. Holy cow, haven't we had enough of the PETER PRINCIPAL ("In a Hierarchy Every Employee Tends to Rise to His Level of Incompetence.") in the oval office? Goes to show what McCain really cares about... AND IT AIN'T "WE THE PEOPLE"! thinkingblue
