POPSReport: ‘Death panels’ author worked with big tobacco to scuttle health reform Susie Madrak, in her blog at Crooks and Liars, cites key parts of the Rolling Stone article: W]hat has not been reported until now is that McCaughey’s writing was influenced by Phillip Morris, the world’s largest tobacco company, as part of a secret campaign to scuttle Clinton’s health care reform. (The measure would have been funded by a huge increase in tobacco taxes.) In an internal company memo from March 1994, the tobacco giant detailed its strategy to derail Hillarycare through an alliance with conservative think tanks, front groups and media outlets.

POPSWhy do we hate Good-byes? I see you seeing me and I exist. I see you seeing me see you and we exist. Mutual re-cognition is the glue that holds us together, not merely as friends, but as individual selves. Good-byes are poignant preludes to the leave-takings and withdrawals that deprive our psyches of the sustenance they need to maintain our selfhood. As such, every good-bye is a premonition of disintegration, a foretaste of death, another step on the path to "adieu." Have you noticed that old folks tell the same stories over and over? They are desperately trying to shore up identities that, because of a paucity of recognition, are breaking down. By telling us their stories, they are staving off the disintegration of self, one day at a time.

POPSWho's in Charge of Deporting Honor Students?! The DREAM Act is not real yet - just a proposal - so Bush League hangovers or wannabe white knights in ICE and Department of Homeland Security keep looking for dangerous illegal aliens to deport. They keep finding kids who have lived most of their lives here, are honor students, and likely as not have been noted in a local news item - as good news. So now we have the real lowdown on how ICE if protecting us, they're using Google to find honor students with foreign (aka, not Anglo) sounding names in local news then running their parents to see if they registered their kids. If not? an easy score on your wannabe big time law enforcer sheet. Deplorable, stupid, dumb - who's in charge?
