POPSHealth Care Bill Could Face String of Legal Challenges “I don’t believe Congress has the legal or moral authority to force this mandate on its citizens,” Ensign said in a statement, raising what’s known as a “constitutional point of order.” Such procedural challenges are rare and typically lead to a vote. The non-profit Fund for Personal Liberty, as well as a Virginia-based group called the 10th Amendment Foundation, already have threatened to file suit in federal court over this issue if the health care bill passes. The Constitution allows Congress to tax, borrow, spend, declare war, raise an army and regulate commerce, among other things. Proponents of the insurance mandate point to the Commerce Clause in arguing that Congress is within its rights to require health insurance and dismiss such potential legal challenges. But foes say the across-the-board requirement is too broad.

POPS Dems to Skyrocket National Debt: Obama’s Leadership Failure
He had the audacity to hold one of his White House “Summits” on fiscal responsibility in February where he once again promised: “We need to send a signal that we are serious” about solving these fiscal problems. All this time the red ink flows like a Tsunami of proportions that have never been seen before. Republicans Stand United and Firm in Opposition to Fiscal Irresponsiblity Before Democrats can pass the 2,500 page omnibus spending bill to fully fund government operations for the remainder of this fiscal year they must pass the increase in the debt ceiling. Action starts in the House of Representatives where Republicans are standing firm: I think it’s very credible to oppose increase in the debt ceiling, and you’ll see Republicans vote against it. And we’ll vote against it because of their trillion-dollar stimulus plan that hasn’t worked. We’ll vote against it because of all of this excessive spending that’s in this bill right here, a 12 percent increase ...

POPSFrom Botox To Botax Much to the apparent ire of the manufacturers of Botox and the doctors who apply it, Congress is poised to levy a new tax to help pay for the health care plan - Botax. I guess they've finally put 2 and 2 together and figured out that they can't balance the checkbook by raising ciggy taxes anymore. I have nothing against plastic surgery, but I say three cheers for a good idea out of Congress that will help fund health care that's truly a necessity.

POPSHow easy is it to gather $1 each from 10000 people? Still working on this project to raise funds for the aboriginal children education. How much more time we have? Only about 30 more hours to go. It is our last call. We set a high target, but we believe it is worth trying. After all, we need only $1 each from 10000 people by end of tomorrow. :) I am sure there are heaps of people out there who are ready to offer a hand if they got to know about this. For the sceptic, check this out. It is an official fund-raising event by one of the leading newspapers in Australia, the Sun-Herald. It is fair dinkum.

POPSSecret Service Overwhelmed By Death Threats Obama, who was given Secret Service protection 18 months before the election - the earliest ever for a presidential candidate - has been the target of more threats since his inauguration than his predecessors. Two days before Obama’s appearance at San Francisco fund-raisers on Thursday, a 59-year-old Northern California man was indicted on charges of sending a racist, profanity-filled e-mail threatening to kill Obama and his family. The rambling e-mail included specific references to Michelle Obama and the phrase, “do it to his children and family first in front of him,’’ according to the indictment.

POPSAttracting Sponsors to Help Pay for Your Soccer Uniforms They do not even charge for the first logo printed on a soccer uniform. According to the guys at Totally Soccer, who have provided soccer uniforms for soccer teams across the US and beyond, they have noticed over the years that certain types of businesses are more likely to sponsor amateur soccer clubs than others.

POPSCustom Soccer Uniforms - A Great Incentive to Offer Sponsors In order to thrive, most amateur soccer clubs understand the need to get a good sponsor (or sponsors if lucky,) to get behind their team Without the gate receipts and merchandising deals that the professionals enjoy, fund raising is essential to any amateur side. Running any amateur side can be expensive, especially when it comes to buying custom soccer uniforms for the team. Persuading local businesses to support you financially however, can be hard work.

POPS Property rush as billions raised to pick up bargains It may force up the price a bit, so the first wave of investors can make a profit by selling to greater fools. These kind of secondary prices collapses could be common when new markets do not materialise because of lack of demand and lack of need.
