POPSAbraham Lincoln Purged By Republlcan Party....Not Born in USA
Steele was asked by a reporter from the AP what the future plans were for the GOP. Steele replied..."It is no longer the GOP...in fact, secret documents show that GOP was the code name for the foreign infiltrators and stood for Good Old Poland....we are now the WASP. And we are taking action.....and asking everyone to bring their five dollar bills with Liebovitz's picture on them to Washington, DC. He is not going to have us to kick around any longer. These millions in five dollar bills will be used to tear down Liebovitz's statue on the Mall and replace it with a statue of Sarah Palin field dressing a moose. We are taking his country back....we will not be fooled...never again" When a reporter said to Steele..."But, Mr. Chairman...you are an African American.....Steele replied....."well.....I was an African American...before.......I wasn't an African American" As Steele took his notes and left the stage an open mike picked up the Chairman humming to himself...."l'm Dreaming Of A

POPS15 Most RIDICULOUS Car Mods You Will Ever See I would like to see the impact ratings for the obese Cadillac. I am betting that 'mod' boosted the impact ratings. Kind of like slamming into a sumo wrestler. The WTF pt. 1 and 2 are vans from Japan styled in the Bosozoku fashion. Trucks like #10 used to be all over the place...back in 1996. That Nintendo valve cover was freaking genius. Picture # 8 is not a mod. That is a standard night headlight assembly for a rally car. These drivers are often doing +150kmph on a road designed for 80kmph in the dead of night; they kinda need really powerful high beams to see the road ahead of them well. Albeit, it may be on some dudes stock Impreza instead of an actual rally car, but it is not a mod anymore than having a roof rack to hold some skis.

POPSOut With the Old, In With the Raw In general, if you are craving crap you are likely to be deficient in some area of nutrition. Eating enough greens will solve this problem. Most smoothie bars are serving up so much sugar you may as well be at a Dairy Queen. There are tons of green smoothie recipes online and in books like Green for Life by Victoria Boutenko to help you keep it fresh in the kitch. Get your green smoothie in often and feel the difference. Here’s one from the article: Ghetto Green Smoothie • Fresh spinach • Bananas • Water Fill your blender up ¾ full with the fresh spinach. Add two bananas and just enough water to get it to blend down (the idea is to get as much greens in while maintaining your taste preference). Blend and taste. Too sweet? Add more greens. Too swampy? Add more bananas. You can also add ice or use frozen bananas for a frostier blend. More nutritional goodness at the site.

POPSEhrenreich: Recession wiping out black middle class And not because of cultural values, which declined far more precipitously among whites. "Wall Street greed" created an unemployment rate among black families rising at four times that among white ones - "greatest loss of wealth for people of color in modern U.S. history." It's a recession among white families, but a full-blown depression among people of color.

POPSThe destruction of the black middle class More: Yet in the depths of this African American depression, some commentators, black as well as white, are still obsessing about the supposed cultural deficiencies of the black community. In a December op-ed in the Washington Post, Kay Hymowitz blamed black economic woes on the fact that 70 percent of black children are born to single mothers, not noticing that the white two-parent family has actually declined at a faster rate than the black two-parent family. The share of black children living in a single parent home increased by 155 percent between 1960 to 2006, while the share of white children living in single parent homes increased by a staggering 229 percent. Just last month on NPR, commentator Juan Williams dismissed the NAACP…The fact that there is an ongoing recession disproportionately affecting the African American middle class – and brought on by Wall Street greed rather than "ghetto" values – seems to have eluded him.

POPSRacists @ "Free Republic" blog Target Malia Obama Some of the quotes in Free Republic's original thread, as reported by the Sun: "Could you imagine what world leaders must be thinking seeing this kind of street trash and that we paid for this kind of street ghetto trash to go over there?" "They make me sick .... The whole family... mammy, pappy, the free loadin' mammy-in-law, the misguided chillin', and especially 'lil cuz... This is not the America I want representin' my peeps." EDIT: As {{Antara}} points out in the comments, Chris Parry is a hypocrite in favor of lighting fires to point out. But in regards to the Free Republic, I think a long look at the general tone there for some time will support the conclusion that if Parry was throwing lit matches, he was throwing them into a raging bonfire.

POPSThe Montana Meth Project: "Not Even Once" To paraphrase a dear, departed one: "When it comes to adulterants, stick to the vegetables you can grow in your back yard. No powders. No needles. No pills. Nothing referred to on the streets by it's initials. Nothing used to tranquilize large 4-legged mammals. Steer towards things whose processing is not much more complicated than one might put into making a dessert, and away from the ones concocted in mad-ghetto-scientist labs that go 'splodey."

POPSMyspace: The Ghetto of the Internet? Personally, I have no space of my own, I don't book my face, and I sure as HELL don't tweet. LiveJournal.com: When you care more about what people are thinking than what they're doing. And by the way... Peet's is more cultured than Starbucks, and Jazz is more cultured than bubblegum pop. That's neither good nor bad, but it is a fact. I'm just sayin'...

POPS15 Horror Movies That Socialist Could Love Tales from the Hood: Three gang bangers from the hood try to rob a funeral home, and discover the undertaker is all lot more than they bargained for. The People Under The Stairs: A family of rich white people live locked up in a giant mansion in the middle of the ghetto. Neverwhere: It turns out that all those crazy homeless people that you see on the street and in the subway are not crazy at all. Candyman: The ghost of a black man murdered for falling in love with a white woman in the 19th century haunts the housing projects of Chicago There’s more. Pretty funny stuff. I always thought this type of horror film should be re-classified as comedy.

POPSHold Your Applause for OBAMA The brutal reality of expanding foreign occupation and harsher and harsher forms of control are the tinder of Islamic fundamentalism, insurgences and terrorism. We can blame the violence on a clash of civilizations. We can naively tell ourselves we are envied for our freedoms. We can point to the Koran. But these are fantasies that divert us from facing the central dispute between us and the Muslim world, from facing our own responsibility for the virus of chaos and violence spreading throughout the Middle East. We can have peace when we shut down our bases, stay the hand of the Israelis to create a Palestinian state, and go home, or we can have long, costly and ultimately futile regional war. We cannot have both.

POPSIsrael Calls for Disarmed Palestinian State
The Pretenses for Peace in the Middle East have taken another step forward: The Palestinian Ghetto Plan. There was no commitment to stop the expansion of Israeli settlements. A call for new talks "without precondition," and in the vocabulary of Israeli "diplomacy," having no "preconditions," means Arabs have to give up any previous agreements, like Israel returning to the 1967 borders (a previous agreement) or having Jerusalem as a shared capitol (a previous agreement), or a sovereign state (a previous agreement). Or the right of return. How long will this pablum, this latest 'Pretenses for peace, continue to deceive? How long will the slow starvation of over a million and a half people in the Gaza Strip continue? Time will tell. When will the next annual Israeli war begin? Of course, the victims of Israeli abuse and invasion must "renounce violence," (although Israel doesn't renounce violence" and Palestinains have to recognize Israel, but not the ot

POPSJezebel refutes Slate's idiotic essay criticizing Etsy Much too long to clip, but well worth reading. More: But what I feel is most problematic is the idea inherent in the work that women should, in some sense, face the reality that their dreams of successful entrepreneurship will never be realized. In truth, most small businesses fail. Many people — men and women — engage in the marketplace with a unique product, idea or service and fail to amass enough profit to stay afloat. The difference between men and women is that men are more often encouraged to do so then women, and encouraged to try again. Mosle's piece attempts to convince women not to take a relatively risk-free wade into the entrepreneurial waters of the American marketplace because they'll "fail," as though economic failure is something with which women cannot or should not be expected to cope.

POPSYou Be The Judge "Similarly, it is acceptable to argue that Israel's offensive in Gaza was wrong -- but it would be anti-Semitic to criticize Israel on the grounds that Jews are dirty, greedy or sinister. The Foxmans and Dershowitzes say that comparing Israelis to Nazis is, in the final analysis, anti-Semitic because it is so demonstrably untrue and so patently disingenuous. Even Israel's fiercest critics, they argue, ought to concede that the country's actions have been taken in its own defense -- even if one believes that defense was misguided or disproportionately violent or even criminal. Further, they say that the number of Palestinian deaths during the 60-year conflict can't begin to compare to the 6 million Jews who died in the Holocaust. To suggest a moral equivalency is anti-Semitic because it's so absurd."

POPSMarvelous Mulberry Tree Thinking about becoming the new Johnny Appleseed- Rachael Mulberribranch, or something. This awesome mulberry tree is growing from between the cracks of the sidewalk at the house next door to me in the ghetto. The negligent landlords have decided that people don't like trees, so they cut every tree down to a stump, every year. But, this mulberry tree had the most amazing fruit last year, attracted two kinds of humingbirds, and so many other species of birds rarely seen on the West side of Buffalo, NY. Maybe some cuttings planted in vacant lots will bring some life back to the hood.
