POPSSen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) Embraces Communist Van Jones
For a time, Jones had been politically radioactive to Democrats but Gillibrand’s decision to work alongside him appears to bring Jones’s political exile to an end. Gillibrand, who had a reputation as a moderate Democrat before entering the U.S. Senate, has been steadily tacking to the left since being appointed to replace Secretary of State Hillary Clinton so it’s no surprise that she is cozying up to her party’s radical left-wing. Gillibrand was one of only seven senators who voted against de-funding the radical leftist group ACORN known for its decades of involvement in election fraud. At the time she defended her vote, telling the New York Post through a spokesperson, “The truth remains that thousands of New York families who are facing foreclosure depend on charitable organizations like ACORN for assistance.” “Van Jones is a globally recognized, award-winning pioneer in the green jobs movement. He also happens to be a super fun speaker so this will be a very ....

"During the bailout, I called my Congressman and other leadership including Barney Frank and asked if there was a provision within the Bill that prohibited illegal aliens from being bailed out…..the answer was no. I asked if there was a provision in the Bill that helped homeowners that did not take out subprimes but are faced with losing their home due to the negative impact of subprimes and was told... no. So in other words, those that committed crimes to obtain the loans will get a helping hand to bail them out, compliments of the US axpayer!" October 26, 2001, President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act. However, I would wager to say that almost no one knows that contained in section 326(b) of the USA Patriot Act is a provision that allows US banks to accept Mexican Matricula Consular cards (MCCs) as a valid form of ID for opening bank accounts." "It should be noted that while... Congress ordered American banks to recognize these Mexican-issued cards,

POPSWhy Obama's Communist Connections Are Not Headlines America is vulnerable to varying degrees of collectivism, wealth redistribution, "creeping socialism" (Ronald Reagan's phrase), class-warfare rhetoric, and generally milder, more palatable (but still dangerous) forms of disguised Marxism. Why? How? The answer is simple: The history and truth about communism is not taught by our educators.

POPS The Nuclear Bluff Obama budget exposes nuclear lie http://michellemalkin.com In his State of the Union Address, President Obama purported to reach across the aisle by endorsing a “new generation of safe, clean nuclear power plants”…before pushing cap and trade. The nearly $4 trillion budget he released today exposes his nuclear lie. President Barack Obama will propose eliminating funding for the Yucca Mountain project in a new budget he will submit to Congress on Monday, according to Nevada lawmakers who were notified over the weekend. It zeroes out funds for the besieged Yucca Mountain nuclear storage facility in Nevada " one of the few, prominent Obama campaign pledges that he looks like he’s actually fulfilling: Following the State of the Union, in a conference call with reporters on the same day the nuclear financing plan was unveiled, Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced the creation of a special panel to find a solution for storing nuclear waste.

POPSThe Kennedy Dynasty Continues to Crumble The Kennedy political dynasty is shaking in the aftershock of U.S. Sen. Scott Brown’s earth-shattering election, with a new poll showing U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy losing ground as he faces a well-financed GOP foe backed by Brown’s top strategists. Last year Ted Kennedy, Jr. was asked if he had decided whether or not to run for public office, and he replied “I haven’t crossed that bridge yet.” Um, okaayy. I’ll take that as a “no” then. But driving skill genetics aside, Scott Brown’s win and Patrick Kennedy’s decline might force the whole family completely out of politics and back into bootlegging booze. Update: Patrick Kennedy says that Scott Brown’s election is “a joke.” Obviously Patrick hasn’t seen the above polling number yet or he’d be distracted by an even funnier one. Patrick Kennedy who once said “I’ve never worked a f **** g day in my life” http://bit.ly/aekFhf http://dougpowers.com

POPSPopcorn Time! Al Franken vs. David Axlerod Over Healthcare Sen. Al Franken ripped into White House senior adviser David Axelrod this week during a tense, closed-door session with Senate Democrats. Five sources who were in the room tell POLITICO that Franken criticized Axelrod for the administration’s failure to provide clarity or direction on health care and the other big bills it wants Congress to enact. The sources said Franken was the most outspoken senator in the meeting, which followed President Barack Obama’s question-and-answer session with Senate Democrats at the Newseum on Wednesday. But they also said the Minnesotan wasn’t the only angry Democrat in the room. “There was a lot of frustration in there,” said a Democratic senator who declined to be identified. “People were hot,” another Democratic senator said.

POPSSen. Kirk Must Step Down; Brown Election To Be Certified Thursday which includes the controversial M. Patricia Smith nomination. This reversal comes days after several inquiries with the Brown campaign, in addition to Senator Mitch McConnell’s office, as to why interim Senator Paul Kirk is still voting on legislation"providing the 60th vote in some cases"and preserving the Democrat supermajority in Congress. I explained the Senate rules and customary application, including: Many states limit the term of office for interim senators to the date set for the special election. In these cases, the term of the interim senator expires immediately upon the election of the popularly chosen successor, who serves the balance of the Senate term, whether it is a few weeks or several years. Moreover, when an interim appointment is made late in the term, it is often customary for the interim senator to resign his or her seat immediately after the election, and for the governor to appoint the special election

Bush's Entry into Politics Bush served as Chairman of the Republican Party for Harris County, Texas in 1964, but wanted to be more involved in policy making, so he set his stakes high: he aimed for a US Senate seat from Texas. After winning the Republican primary, Bush faced his opponent, incumbent Democrat Ralph Yarborough. Yarborough attacked Bush as a right-wing extremist, and Bush lost the general election.

POPSConstitutional Amendment to Combat Supreme Court Decision on Campaign Finance In the Senate, Sen. Arlen Specter, Pennsylvania Democrat, wrote on Twitter this weekend that he is also authoring an amendment. Sen. John Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat, jumped on the bandwagon Tuesday, offering his support for one during a committee hearing. While Specter has been public about his intentions, he has been mum on the details. Specter spokeswoman Kate Kelly only said she expects the senator to further unveil his plans on the Senate floor in the future. She said she did not know when that would be or exactly what will be in the amendment. This is all in response to the Supreme Court’s Citizens United vs. Federal Election Commission decision, released on Jan. 21, that independent expenditures by corporations on political broadcasts cannot be limited, striking down part of the 2002 McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform bill. Republicans praised the ruling as a victory for the First Amendment.

POPSO'Keefe:The Persecution of an American Patriot But do not dare pretend to be a Bell repair man. Do not dare to enter a Democrat Senator’s office while disagreeing with her politics. If you do that, you will get the revolutionary court putting you into a hole, with the mob cheering like Frankenstein. There is something really wrong in America when an earnest young man, in pursuit of the truth, is treated like a murderer, and a jihadi, whose intent is to slaughter Americans and overthrow the American government, is mirandized and given the Constitutional protections of an American citizen (which he isn’t). The bottom line is that James O’Keefe was terribly wronged. And that is the story. That would have been front-page news in an era of uncorrupted media. Which is why the new media is, without, question, the single most critical element to winning the war of ideas.

POPS Stupid Is As Stupid Does little to focus on job creation over the past year. Discouraging people from coming to our state to make a political point adds insult to injury," said Republican Congressman Dean Heller. "Tourism is the number one economic stimulus for Southern Nevada and for many cities and states across the country. While we appreciate Las Vegas is top of mind for the President, we would ask that he offer words of encouragement instead of criticism," Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority President and CEO Rossi Ralenkotter said. President Obama is scheduled to visit Las Vegas this month. White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs later clarified that Obama meant to target banks and other firms that received federal bailout funds. Gibbs said that the president believes in a strong tourism industry. Read more: http://nosheepleshere.blogspot.com/#ixzz0eUFxf5XG

POPSRepublicans Say Obama Loan Program is First Step Toward TARP Slush Fund The president’s idea, which requires legislative action by Congress, would remove the $30 billion from the pot of money that is scheduled to be paid back to the $12.4 trillion national debt this fall, when TARP is scheduled to expire. A White House official confirmed to The Daily Caller that the money would no longer go toward paying down the debt if the president’s idea became law. “They can do that?” asked Sen. Mark Pryor, Arkansas Democrat. A White House release said that the reason for moving the money out of TARP would be to “encourage broader participation by banks, as they would not face TARP restrictions.” Many of the largest recipients of TARP funds have paid back their loans with interest, seeking to avoid government dictates on executive pay or other matters. Pryor said that using TARP money for such a purpose likely went outside the bounds of “truth in budgeting.” “If we’re going to spend more money let’s be more transparent about that, ,” he said.

POPSLexington And Concord Revisited - The Brown Upset and What It Means You can expect to see this president trash talking quite outrageously when it comes to this years' State of the Union speech, due out January 27th. I could almost write a critique of the coming speech in advance. Obama will blame George W. Bush, of course. That tired tune still resonates with the true believers although recent numbers suggest that it isn't anything like the hit song it was a year ago. He will blame 'obstructionists' the Republicans and 'the old politics as usual' for his mishaps. And expect him to do the class war dance, blaming 'the banks', 'Wall Street' 'big insurers' and 'the special interests' for everything he can't lay at Bush's feet. I wouldn't even be surprised to hear him make a call for fiscal responsibility...after he and the Democrats quadrupled the nation's debt like an out-of control teen at the mall armed with daddy's credit card.

But Obama can’t guarantee people won’t see higher rates or fewer benefits in their existing plans.

OBAMA: The president issued a populist broadside against lobbyists, saying they have “outsized influence” over the government ...
