POPSCarrie Prejean Goes Down. Literally! Of course, all of this should have little effect on her career. If anything it will add fuel to it with the way Americans are infatuated with hypocrites and fallen angels. Vivid Entertainment Group, which specializes in adult films, made an offer of a million dollars to Prejean back in May to make a movie for them. Seems she might be a natural. This could only raise her value in the porn market. Practice makes perfect. I'm curious as to how all the rightwing Prejean backers will spin this and find a way to blame this on everyone but Prejean. I might even turn on Fox News to check it out. With Prejean's looks and attitude, she may end up with her own show over there since credibility isn't a factor in Fox's hiring practices. And for those of you who don’t remember who actually won the Miss California Pageant, her name is Tami Ferrell from Malibu. How soon we forget those with actual morals.

POPSProp 8 lawyer admits he doesn't know how same-sex marriage would threaten opposite-sex marriage More: Walker pressed on, asking again for specific "adverse consequences" that could follow expanding marriage to include same-sex couples. Cooper cited a study from the Netherlands, where gay marriage is legal, showing that straight couples were increasingly opting to become domestic partners instead of getting married. "Has that been harmful to children in the Netherlands? What is the adverse effect?" Walker asked. Cooper said he did not have the facts at hand. "But it is not self-evident that there is no chance of any harm, and the people of California are entitled not to take the risk," he said. "Since when do Constitutional rights rest on the proof of no harm?" Walker parried, adding the First Amendment right to free speech protects activities that many find offensive, "but we tolerate those in a free society."

POPSMary Cheney's baby brings out conservative bile, hate, & bigotry
More choice comments re: Dick Cheney's impending grandchild: -I respect Dick Cheney, but I don't understand why he is allowing his daughter to take innocent children into her lesbianic home. Can anyone claim that these kids won't be scarred for life? So sad. -Also repugnant, IMNSHO, is the use of "they are expecting a child" when, for obvious reasons "they" could not POSSIBLY have conceived. -As much as I don't like it, God will have to sort this out in the end. -she’s an emancipated adult. Mary Cheney is poorly exercising her free will which she will have to answer for one day. -This should be made a criminal act- it is selfish and does emotional violence to the child. - hese homosexual couples have to use a whole series of bizarre test tube procedures in order to obtain their human play toy. There is nothing natural or loving about it. Ah, the smell of bigotry in the morning. After the death of the Rep. party, this is what history will remember.

POPS14 DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS OF FASCISM
Supremacy of the Military Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized. * Rampant Sexism The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy. * Controlled Mass Media Sometimes the media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common. * Obsession with National Security Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses. * Religion and Government are Intertwined Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in th

POPSJocks Pose To Fight Homophobia The Convicts, founded in 2004 as Australia's first gay rugby team, are the current titleholders of the Bingham Cup, the International Gay Rugby Association's world championship. "To have representatives of the national rugby union team taking a public and positive stance against homophobia speaks volumes to counter negative stereotypes," Sydney Convicts president Charlie Winn said. "It also sends a message to the many young players that their role models at the professional level accept diversity and support our community." http://news.yahoo.com/s/advocate/20090818/ts_advocate/jocks_pose_for_photos_to_fight_homophobia

POPSSomebodies and Nobodies: Understanding Rankism Examples of rankism based on pseudo rankings include the illicit hierarchies maintained by racism, sexism, ageism, classism, ableism, and heterosexualism (or, homophobia)--in short, the familiar isms that plague societies and that, one by one, are being discredited and dismantled. What can victims of rank abuse do to protect their dignity?Those abused on the basis of color unified against racism. Women targeted sexism and the elderly took aim at ageism. By analogy, "rankism" denotes abuses of power associated with rank. Once you have a name for it, you see it everywhere. More importantly, once you call it by name, everyone else will see it too, and perpetrators will find themselves on the defensive.

POPSBigots are buggers Prof. Adams says his research shows that most homophobes "demonstrate significant sexual arousal to homosexual erotic stimuli", suggesting that homophobia is a form of "latent homosexuality where persons are either unaware of or deny their homosexual urges". These findings have prompted the gay rights group OutRage! to write to a cross-section of 20 homophobic MPs challenging them to take Prof. Adams's test to counter suggestions that their anti-gay voting record might be evidence of repressed homosexuality. "We're inviting the MPs to get their honourable members tested", says Marina Cronin of OutRage! "Some doctors are getting us a plethysmograph and they're willing to help us administer the test". The MPs OutRage! has written to include many of the usual suspects: Matthew Banks, Henry Bellingham, Rhodes Boyson, Sebastian Coe, Terry Dicks, Nigel Evans, Michael Forsyth, Harry Greenway, Edward Heath, Michael Heseltine, Peter Lilley, Tony Marlow, James Molyneaux, Fergus Montgome

POPSRemarks by President Obama at Buchenwald Concentration Camp Deutsche Übersetzung: hagalil.com Bis heute gibt es jene, die darauf beharren, dass es den Holocaust niemals gab – eine Leugnung der Fakten und der Wahrheit, die jeder Grundlage entbehrt, ignorant und abscheulich ist. Dieser Ort ist die elementarste Zurechtweisung solcher Gedanken, eine Mahnung an unsere Pflicht, uns gegen jene zu stellen, die Lügen über unsere Geschichte verbreiten. Bis heute gibt es auch jene, die jegliche Form der Intoleranz fortsetzen, Hass, der seine Opfer herabwürdigt und uns alle herabsetzt. Dieser Ort lehrt uns, dass wir immer wachsam sein müssen, wenn es um die Verbreitung des Bösen in unserer Zeit geht, dass wir die falsche Behaglichkeit, dass das Leid Anderer nicht unser Problem ist, ablehnen und wir uns dem Widerstand gegen jene verpflichten müssen, die Andere unterdrücken wollen, um ihren eigenen Interessen zu dienen.

POPSWorkplace Rights cont. If you don’t talk about your personal life at all, you don’t form connections or friendships with your co-workers. You are perceived as ‘distant.’ That is not a behavior that tends to lead to promotion or professional recognition. The remaining option is to change pronouns and names. This is a nuisance. Forming relationships with co-workers based on lying is not likely to lead to long-term friendships. If you do form friendships, you have to go to great lengths to keep your work friends away from your real friends, where ‘real’ is defined as people you don’t feel compelled to lie to.

POPSHeterosexual Ivy League Professor Kills Wife Since people are entertaining the idea that we should ban gay adoption because an allegedly gay man is accused of molesting his adopted son, I think it is only fair that we ask, in light of this incident, if we should ban marriages involving straight men, economists, or Ivy League professors.

POPSPrimary school pupils were forced to listen to Elton John... Oh-my-gosh! Coming to a school near you. Why can't schools just teach reading, writing, and arithmetic? Why in the world would children be forced to endure the propaganda from one such as Elton John?? "tackling the issue in a sensitive way"? These babies couldn't care less!!! Can they not just be children? and not be *educated* and indoctrinated/introduced! to a life-style that is hurtful? "Bullying"...that's just a ruse and we all know it. Bullying has been around since time immoral and it hasn't always been about certain people; it's about power, dominance, and control. This makes me sick and want to shelter my little ones even more. They are too young to deal with these issues while many thrust it upon them.

POPS"I am awed by the scale of social change this stuff represents." More: Imagine a science fiction story written 50 years ago like Written 50 years ago, this would be radical left-wing speculation, right? As would a straight description of, say, an office party where I work. The research, management, and support staff a wild mix of different races and sexes? Female mathematicians and engineers and scientists doing lots of the research and work? Half the staff East or South Asian or Latin American, and a good fraction of the US-born staff black? C'mon--that crap will never happen, that's like something out of science fiction.
