POPS Barack’s Junior Brownshirts Are Everywhere Whoever stamped ”DENIED” across my document clearly felt justified in defacing it. Though petty, this was a hostile act - another tiny blow in the insidious war on free thought. … Instead of gossiping at the water cooler, today’s privileged jugend hover in packs around TV monitors to mock the usual suspects - poor old Sarah Palin, the Tea Partiers, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Miss California (chivalry is deader than dead). Together, they telegraph their warning to anyone who might disagree: don’t. … Twenty-somethings are fond of declaring, “It’s a free country!” But is it? Really? hese kids - who see nothing odd about surrounding themselves with creepy, halo’d icons of The One - mock folks who actually make the effort to exercise their right to free speech on talk radio, at Tea Parties, and at workplace printers. They think this double standard is perfectly normal.

POPSFIlmmakers Take on DC: Obama, Clintons Heroes and Mock Palin Naturally, all these people could see out of Governor Sarah Palin's incredible story was something to ridicule. What we have here is further proof of Hollywood's hatred of the average American and its disconnect from the majority of the country. Many millions of people in this country found Sarah Palin to be a breath of fresh air and look forward to seeing her further her political career. Yet what does her name evoke in Hollyweird? Nothing but snide comments and attacks.

POPSWhat if SNL Mocked Michelle (hate America) Obama With complete media bias assisting ZerObama's election efforts, with hundreds of millions illegally coming in from overseas (Arab) sources, isn't it amazing the Wonder Boy isn't ahead by 20 or 30 points? The race is tied because Americans are coming to realize His Holiness is selling snake oil.

POPSJon Stewart and Stephen Colbert: Mock the Vote So what do you think is the issue that people will end up voting on? STEWART: Whatever happens that week. It all depends on when that Michelle Obama ''I hate whitey'' tape comes out. If it comes out now, it could dissipate by the election. But if it comes out a couple days before, that could be dangerous. COLBERT: Jon? I have it.

POPSLipstick Fascism "This is the path that America is on with Palin and McCain. The election of 2008 is a choice between the United States Constitution and Lipstick Fascism."
