"This month, Colorado's congressional delegation voted unanimously to approve the Peru Free Trade Agreement (FTA), which would relax trade regulations with the South American country, but questions linger over why four of the state's seven House members supported the proposal after opposing a similar measure two years ago."

POPSThe Clintons Ethical Imbroglios Burson-Marsteller ultimately bought Penn & Schoen and Penn became its head honcho. Penn demonstrated his blatant lack of sensitivity to conflict of interest issues during the last Clinton administration. The number of Burson-Marsteller clients — both corporations and foreign governments — that will likely try to influence the next administration is staggering. In plain English, a number of foreign governments, seeking to persuade the President of the United States to adopt legislation in their economic interest, paid the president’s trusted adviser to make their case in the White House. In October 1998, while Penn was the White House chief political strategist, he registered his polling firm, Penn & Schoen, as an agent for the Central American Bank for Economic Integration, operated, and controlled by Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua with Mexico, Taiwan, Argentina, and Colombia as additional shareholders.

POPSGun-Policy Advocates on Both Sides Push Dubious Figures Carl Bialik, the "Numbers Guy" at the Wall Street Journal, reports on a number of dubious statistics in the gun control debate. Here I clipped one used by gun control proponents. Here is another dubious statistic pushed by gun control opponents: Meanwhile, opponents of gun control have written online commentaries claiming that Americans use guns 2.5 million times yearly in defense against crime. The number originates in research, more than a decade old, conducted by Florida State criminologists Gary Kleck and Marc Gertz. They conducted a phone survey of defensive gun use, asking respondents if they, or members of their household, had used guns in self-defense... Prof. Kleck cites as corroboration for his findings a 1994 survey conducted by Profs. Cook and Ludwig...Yet those two researchers concluded that their own numbers and Prof. Kleck's are inflated.
