POPSNow Why Would a “Diversity Czar” Worry Anyone?
Naturally, these strategies all come complete with the usual, harmless-sounding calls for “diversity” and “community.” Seton Motley, of the conservative Media Research Center, said Lloyd “laid out a battle plan” in a 2007 report for the George Soros-funded progressive think tank, Center for American Progress. According to Motley, Lloyd wanted “the FCC to threaten stations’ licenses with whom they do not agree with politically, and now he’s at the FCC waiting to take their calls. This is not about serving the local interest, it’s about political opposition.” Like I said, start worrying! And get ready to fight!

POPSThe National Guard Is Coming Home Five years ago, George Bush called the Guard into national service pursuant to the 2002 Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF) against Iraq. The AUMF, passed by Congress in its rush to war, established a limited mission: First, the removal of Saddam Hussein from power; second, enforcement of preceding United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding the elimination of alleged Iraqi WMDs and ballistic missiles. The Vermont bill recognizes that those two mission objectives are complete and that the national service of the Vermont Guard is over; the bill recalls the Guard to state control.
