POPSWhy We Need Hope A good friend said these words to me: " Zinn says the stories of the darkest times are the best stories, because there are always heroes in the midst of it resisting the darkness, and if we don't tell the dark stories, we never learn of the heroes. It's the thing about being like Jesus - to his contemporaries, even to his followers, he always looked like a disappointing failure. But they have faded from history. So we look like losers, too. And we aren't." :)

POPSBecause We Don't Need It... We don’t need more debts. Palin spent 15 million on a new sports center in the valley, leaving the small town of Wasilla, Alaska in debt to the amount of 22 million. (That’s 22 million more than the debt she took on when taking on this lovely playtime as mayor.) We don’t need family feuds interfering with duties. I know you feel your ex-brother-in-law was a dick… but trying to get him fired...Sarah? We don’t need another vote against gay marriage. This is just standard every day equal rights being overlooked. Sarah Palin disagrees. We don’t need to overlook global warming. Science can now tell us "Yup. That is happening.” Not my words, that is science speak. Sarah Palin disagrees.

POPSFish Picker From Alaska This is about Sarah Palin. I'm not American, I'm Australian, but I still have this grotesquely huge distain for the woman. Especially what she said about abortions. Don't get me started on it. x_x

POPSThe Years He Won’t Discuss May Explain The Ayers Tie He Denies 
transparent whitewashing of the Obama/Ayers tie, the paper claimed that the pair first met earlier in 1995, “at a lunchtime meeting about school reform in a Chicago skyscraper ” That storyline is preposterous too, but it is also a marked revision of the paper’s prior account (which, naturally, reporter Scott Shane fails to mention). Why the change? The tacit concession was forced by Stanley Kurtz and Steve Diamond — whom the Times chooses not to acknowledge but who hover over Shane’s sunny narrative like a dark cloud. Despite all manner of stonewalling by Obama, Ayers and their allies, these commentators have doggedly pursued information about the Chicago Annenberg Challenge. That’s the $150+ million “education reform” piggy bank substantially controlled in the nineties by Ayers and Obama, who doled out tens of millions of dollars to Leftist radicals — radicals who, like their patrons, understood that control over our institutions, and especially our schools, . . . .

POPSTo Each According To His Hyphen Clearly no member of ethnic minority should be allowed, under any circumstances, to oppose Obama. By doing so they will equate themselves to the self-reliant and individualistic, success-driven Caucasian male grownups, which is patently absurd. Someone has yet to answer for the existence of Thomas Sowell, Michael Steele, and Condi Rice. What will happen to the Party if all minority representatives stop representing and abandon the progressive protection racket?

POPSPullman on Religion INTRO; Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy constitutes one of the finest reading experiences for children I’ve ever seen. I read them as an adult, on the advice of a literary colleague, and fell under their spell immediately. They are fantasy books, for sure, but with a strong rational and anti-authority philosophy. And although I don’t think of them as purely anti-religious, if your religion is one with an authoritarian streak then … Interesting character.

POPSLight - Directional, Reflected, and Refracted.. "The quality of light influences how we react to what we see, whether we’re looking at a landscape, a building, a person, a picture, whatever. Because the effect takes place on an almost subliminal level, most people go through life totally unaware of it happening"

POPSOur Politicians are not Leaders Leaders lead. They do what's right, not what saves their political hides. The inmates are now officially running the asylum. Idiots. And shame on all those who wrote complaining. Now you might actually get to feel a real depression. Good Luck.

POPSBBC Correspondent Comment I liked. People of good character can be wrong in the past, but right on the future. And for the record, I do not think Iraq was a wrong decision although I feel the execution of the post-Saddam era was beyond awful.

POPSDoubling Your Strengths? However, the message is confusing. It says: To be successful, we need only half of our selves—our strengths. By redefining the concept of strengths, I have created a framework that describes all of the ways that a person can think, feel, and behave as strengths. How is it that we don't have weaknesses? We are so used to thinking in a positive-negative framework, which is a self-limiting way of thinking. So, it's almost natural that when we think about a strength we have, we immediately start looking for a negative, or a weakness. For example, if you see yourself in positive terms as outgoing and gregarious, you might think negatively about yourself when you are quiet and less expressive. I want you to see yourself not in terms of strengths and weaknesses but in terms of opposite strengths.
