POPSMcCain Hopes Amnesia Will Get Him Elected.
The American people would have toforget the last eight years to elect McCain and they would have to fall once again for the politics of divide and conquer, the politics of personal destruction rather than a politics that looks at facts and future plans. McCain has been part of the problem and now he's going to go in a fix it all? What a joke. The Republicans are FEMA. The Republicans are a still devasted New Orleans. The Republicans are stealing billions of dollars from taxpayers and putting profit into the pockets of Wall Street bankers. (maybe even TRILLIONS, with this latest bailout of failed mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac). The Republicans have led us into a war losing 4,000,plus of our own troops and now probably having killed 500,000 Iraqi's or more, cost us more billions (and maybe TRILLIONS) -- and this is for facts we now know are not true...Iraq had no connection to 9/11 and no WMD's But, forget all that. Amnesia. Vote for McCain. He has Alzheimer'

POPSGOPAC Chairman Michael Steele: Campaign Coverage 'Has Been a Joke' I just look at how they chewed up Hillary to get to Barack. And so, you know, what they were trying to figure outwho's the best player to go up against the Republican establishment.... Certainly the race issue would be one of those landmines that they figured the party would have to deal with. So I think in terms of how the media has approached this more broadly speaking has been pitiful.... You know as well as I do, if the shoe were on the other foot, they would be scrutinizing the heck out of a black Republican or a Hispanic Republican . How true. Great video: 3:35

POPSHappy to Know that People's Families Are Off Limits! This joke is vile in more ways than I count. Chelsea is and was beautiful -- not that it should even matter. It's never acceptable to make a joke like that, but the fact that Chelsea was a teenager at the time makes it even worse. The joke wasn't merely sexist and mean, it was also homophobic. It is a brutal indictment of John McCain's personal character -- and the character of those who laughed along with him.

POPS The Chicken Or the State Road? As we were coming back home yesterday from mowing grass on our farm, I was chilling out and I didn't even notice that we passed a chicken pecking in the ditch. Suddenly, under his breath my husband says: "Chicken is cleaning the ditch better than the state road" Now, I dunno why, but this remark struck me as insanely funny and I couldn't stop laughing. You probably have to live in this state to get the joke, but regardless, laughter is so good for the soul isn't it?

POPS Fowler Apologizes For GOP/Gustav Joke........ ..........If that's what you want to call it…...... I have to say that I am a free speech advocate and would not suggest that people should be prohibited from taping such conversations. But nevertheless it seems to be a bit extreme to tape a private conversation like that. — Donald Fowler to ABC News It would again appear that we have a big mouth more sorry he was caught using it, than being sorry to those whom may have been hurt by his words.

POPSRussia's Bizarre & Horrifying Road Through Hell Yakutsk is the capital of the Yakutia Republic, part of the vast Russian region known as Siberia. The old joke is 'War is God's way of teaching us geography'. With that in mind, any kid who grew up playing the board game Risk remembers Yakutsk and neighboring Kamchatka as two territories with weird names located up at the top of Asia. As a kid, I had never heard of these places. Nor did it ever dawn on me people actually live there (if getting stuck in the mud is considered living... ) The road of mud isn't the only problem. It seems that people who live in Yakutsk were born to suffer. Yakutsk is considered the coldest city on earth, with January temperatures averaging -45 °F. The coldest temperatures ever recorded outside Antarctica occur in the basin of the Yana River just to the northeast. Yakutsk is the world's biggest city built on continuous permafrost. Most houses are built up on concrete piles to keep from sinking.

POPSHmm? No joke, if we decided to hire an intern at Clipmarks, I'd get to know them better than this before offering them the position. I just don't get how McCain didn't find a way to spend more time with her before making his decision.

POPSDemocrats have done what in 2 years? They can lambast all they want about the 'past 8 years' Truth be told the Democrats have effective control of the house and senate as well as a majority of the governorships in the U.S. since November, 2006. We already know that the 'Speaker of the House' is a sad joke. And Congress actually has as low (if not lower) approval rating than the current president. So, I ask- democrats already have control, now what have you done with it? Nothing. Same as usual.

POPSClimate Change Is Already Affecting the West's Water Unless it slaps them in the face, the typical American can't be bothered by an abstract threat. If there's a global warming event -- a mammoth hurricane, tornado, or forest fire -- in our neighborhood, then we get concerned. From this perspective, the loss of a few thousand acres of ice in a remote corner of Montana hardly seems significant. Most of us don't see it as a danger sign. But it is. Disappearing glaciers is a harbinger of huge problems. In the West, the most obvious is drought.
