POPSWhat does it mean to be an American? This 10-year-old boy gets it More: After asking his parents whether it was against the law not to stand for the pledge, Will decided to do something. On Monday, Oct. 5, when the other kids in his class stood up to recite the pledge of allegiance, he remained sitting down…Each day, the substitute got a little more cross with him. On Thursday, it finally came to a head… Will was sent to the office… At the end of our interview, I ask young Will a question that might be a civics test nightmare for your average 10-year-old. Will's answer, though, is good enough — simple enough, true enough — to give me a little rush of goose pimples. What does being an American mean? “Freedom of speech,” Will says, without even stopping to think. “The freedom to disagree. That's what I think pretty much being an American represents.” Somewhere, Thomas Jefferson smiles.

POPSRachel Maddow Takes On Pete Hoekstra MADDOW: Why is it Pete Hoekstra who's taking it upon himself to tell the press that this radical cleric is having his email read by U.S. intelligence agencies? Well MadCow - because the media bows to Obama and reports only the "oh he's such a sweet guy" kind of stories - do not expect everyone to goose-step right behind you. Typical far-left attitude though - attack the messenger instead of the facts. Hasan is a home grown Islamic Terrorist - who murdered 13 on US soil while masquerading as a US Soldier. He did it in true Islamic form shouting Allah's praise prior to opening fire. My question is - why the hell don't pukes like yourself quit trying to cover up facts and try reporting them for a change, that is if you can stop your Obama idolizing long enough.

POPS10,000 Miles, Mary Chapin Carpenter My daughter and I watched the movie Fly Away Home today. It is wonderful, if you haven't seen it. A little girl finds some orphaned goose eggs and teaches the geese to fly south for the winter. Makes me cry every time I watch it.

POPSTito's vs. Grey Goose The clear winner here is Tito's Handmade Vodka. I implore anyone who is biased towards spirits and their perceived quality because of high price or brand recognition alone to please do yourself a favor and try Tito's. It ranks up there with any of the highest priced vodkas on the market and sells for a fraction of their price. On top of that, it is a genuine Texas-made beverage. Good stuff.

POPSGoose/Gander? Guess It's About Who's Cooked. This article pissed me off. But I was heartened by some of the comments. Some guy does up a poster expressing his opinion and I've seen it all over the place. Personally, I thought it was brilliant. No one had a problem with the anti-Bush, anti-Cheney cartoons and commentary... but I guess that was different. When was the last time - in your memory - that anyone, especially a kid, was taken into custody (but not 'arrested') for a political cartoon posted anywhere? Is satire dead? Is political commentary now a crime? Free speech is now a thing of the past? Or is it that we just can't disagree with the Chosen One? Well, they better come and get me because I don't like the guy, I sure as hell didn't vote for him or any of his cronies and I just might have to put this poster on my lawn.

POPSHealth plan will not reduce Medical Costs says non partisan CBO A group of 22 Democrats, including Polis and Titus, elected in 2006 and 2008 wrote a letter to Speaker Nancy Pelosi, protesting the tax as harmful to small businesses. "Especially in a recession, we need to make sure not to kill the goose that will lay the golden eggs of our recovery," the letter read. "We believe that any revenues for the health care program should be collected from a larger base than the critical small business sector."

POPSArctic goo isn't Oil--but what ISit? "It's certainly biological," Hasenauer said. "It's definitely not an oil product of any kind. It has no characteristics of an oil, or a hazardous substance, for that matter. "It's definitely, by the smell and the makeup of it, it's some sort of naturally occurring organic or otherwise marine organism." "If it was something we'd seen before, we'd be able to say something about it. But we haven't ...which prompted concerns from the local hunters and whaling captains." The stuff is "gooey" and looks dark against the bright white ice floating in the Arctic Ocean, Brower said. "It's pitch black when it hits ice and it kind of discolors the ice and hangs off of it," Brower said. He saw some jellyfish tangled up in the stuff, and someone turned in what was left of a dead goose -- just bones and feathers -- to the borough's wildlife department. "It kind of has an odor; I can't describe it," he said.
