POPSLiz Cheney emerges, the left's feeding frenzy (and "tolerance"), verging on abject panic So Liz Cheney, just like Palin, unnerves and upsets the Left, not simply because she might run for something and win, and not only because she is one of the most effective conservative spokeswomen on national security. She threatens their claim to the moral high ground and their assertion that women voters belong to the Left. That’s reason enough to send them into fits of rage. And you can bet they’re only getting warmed up. So predictable. Saw this coming a mile away. It's almost boring watching the left piss their pants again over a woman who happens to be a conservative. Maybe we can expect David Letterman to crack a rape joke about Liz and her family, on behalf of the "tolerant" left. Sad.

POPSJust Say Yes A healthy 13-year-old boy died today in Toronto from the H1N1 influenza virus. While H1N1 still causes severe reactions and death in significantly fewer cases than seasonal influenza, it can still kill, like any case of influenza. There's no good reason to refuse the vaccine (just paranoia and hype), and plenty of good reasons to get it. If a family's perfectly healthy, 13-year-old can go from mild symptoms to dead within 48hs, it can happen to anyone. Don't be scared; don't panic, but take reasonable precautions. That includes getting the vaccine as soon as it's available. Don't let the conspiracy theorists scare you away!

POPSMilitary Service Training Ground For Sexual Predation This article is quite comprehensive in scope and deserves a full reading. A few more paragraphs from it follow this remark. "Yet for decades, in spite of the terrible numbers, the military has managed with astonishing success to get away with responding to grievances like Krause's with silence, or denial, or by blaming "a few bad apples." But when individual soldiers take the blame, the system gets off the hook. And it can be shown that the patterns of military sex crimes are old and widespread -- for generations, military service has transformed large numbers of American boys into sexual predators. So it seems reasonable to ask if perhaps there is something about military culture or training or experience that can be identified as causative, and then, perhaps, changed."

POPSDogging Lloyd Doggett: 'Just Say No' to Obamacare!
But as Phillip Klein indicates: The liberal effort to discredit American citizens who are expressing their views on an issue of vital importance is completely without merit, but it is instructive. It tells us that liberals know that despite their tremendous advantages in terms of resources and power in Washington, they are losing the health care messaging war. It’s becoming clear that Americans are not ready for a government takeover of the health care system, and they aren’t going to sit by idly while Democrats ram it down their throats. Congressman Doggett Urges Return to Fiscal Responsibility Official Government website On the House floor, I urged my colleagues to support the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act. This bill is an important step to restore the kind of fiscal discipline abandoned in 2002. If we have any hope to invest in the vital priorities that are critical to our economic future, including health care, education, and clean energy policies,

POPSObama in Panic Over His ‘Health Care’ Slip-Sliding Away It is highly unusual and inappropriate for Obama to try to strong-arm the CBO. John Fund of the Wall Street Journal was on Fox News to discuss this questionable meeting with Elmendorf: Report Says CBO Director Elmendorf Ordered to White House for Meeting with Obama - Video 7/22/09. http://www.freedomslighthouse.com/2009/07/report-says-cbo-director-elmendorf.html Congressional Budget Office Director Elmendorf tells Ways and Means that: "The coverage proposals in this legislation would expand federal spending on health care to a significant degree. And in our analysis so far, we dont see other provisions in this legislation reducing federal health spending by a corresponding degree." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrnucDxnFy0 July 16, 2009 YouTube video (0:19) To Read Full Article>>>>> http://www.traditionalvalues.org/modules.php?sid=3711

POPSFlorida prepares for huge swine flu shot program If you take the vaccines you'll also be getting a dose or two of Formaldahide, Mercury, Fluoride and of course not forgetting the Cancer Viruses. All perfect for population control and depopulation. Its admitted by Health officials that the ordinary flu is alot more dangerous, it is just the media whipping it up into a frenzy in the public eye. - ''We want to make sure we aren't promoting panic, but we are promoting vigilance and preparation,'' Obama said. What a hypocrite.

POPSThe Story of Schroedinger's Cat (An Epic Poem) Or atom--whatever--but when it emits, A trigger device blasts the vial into bits Which snuffs our poor kitty. The odds of this crime Are 50 to 50 per hour each time. The cylinder's sealed. The hour's passed away. Is Our pussy still purring--or pushing up daisies? Now, you'd say the cat either lives or it don't But quantum mechanics is stubborn and won't. Statistically speaking, the cat (goes the joke), Is half a cat breathing and half a cat croaked. To some this may seem a ridiculous split, But quantum mechanics must answer, "Tough shit. We may not know much, but one thing's fo' sho': There's things in the cosmos that we cannot know. Shine light on electrons--you'll cause them to swerve. The act of observing disturbs the observed-- Which ruins your test. But then if there's no testing To see if a particle's moving or resting Why try to conjecture? Pure useless endeavor! We know probability--certainty, never.'

POPSThe epidemiology of overweight and obesity: public health crisis or moral panic? Yet despite all of the moral connotations ascribed to weight gain, we have little idea exactly why people weigh somewhat more now than they did a generation ago…. So what if the so-called ‘obesity epidemic’ is largely an illusion? What if higher than average weight turns out to have neither much medical nor moral significance? The answer to these questions, all of which we believe are strongly suggested by the epidemiological literature, go far beyond the issues of body mass and health. The current scientific evidence should prompt health professionals and policy makers to consider whether it makes sense to treat body weight as a barometer of public health. It should also make us pause to consider how propagating the idea of an ‘obesity epidemic’ furthers the political and economic interests of certain groups, while doing immense damage to those whom it blames and stigmatizes.

POPSThe Battle of San Jacinto At close range, the two little cannon, drawn by rawhide thongs, were wheeled into position and belched their charges of iron slugs into the enemy barricade. Then the whole line, led by Sherman's men, sprang forward on the run, yelling, "Remember the Alamo!" "Remember Goliad!" All together they opened fire, blazing away practically point-blank at the surprised and panic-stricken Mexicans. They stormed over the breastworks, seized the enemy's artillery, and joined in hand-to-hand combat, emptying their pistols, swinging their guns as clubs, slashing right and left with their knives. Mexicans fell by the scores under the impact of the savage assault.

POPSHow to Destroy the Government in Three Easy Steps
Step 3: Exploit Disaster If you've managed to accomplish steps 1 and 2, people will be in a panic. And we all know that panicky people make rash decisions. Now is your chance to push that unpopular agenda through the cracks - disaster capitalism at its best! Remember how we tricked the populace into an illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq to secure oil revenues? That wouldn't have happened if people weren't scared out of their wits by the fright of terrorism. Think people would have gone for No Child Left Behind and allowed tests to replace learning in the classroom? We had to fabricate a crisis (which took years of hard work to create) to push that one through. And you know that there's no way we could take away so many civil liberties with the Patriot Act if the debate was drawn out for weeks under public scrutiny. So there you have it. Three easy steps to destroy the government. If you're an overachiever (you know who you are!), you might even try gi

POPSA Breath Of Sanity with Frank Schaeffer "Crazy For God"
I saw this clip the other night on “D.L. Hughley Breaks the News" Late Night Show. His guest was Frank Schaeffer and although, I have never heard of this man before, what he had to say was so coherent and sane, I had to search youtube to see if anyone had copied this segment of Hughley's show and posted it to youtube. Sure enough, the video was not hard to find. If you would like an extra breath of sanity, please listen to Schaeffer's opinion on why our beautiful nation is suffering so, after the insane takeover by the Right Wing Nut zealots and neoconservative war mongers. Why would anyone want to be associated with these groups is beyond all that is rational. If I were a sound of mind conservative, I would distance myself and my beliefs as far away from these crazy, Rush Limbaugh "DITOHEADS" (Note, spell check gives the word "DICKHEADS") as I could get.

POPSVirtual Kidnapping - Is someone calling you?? I just received a cell call from an unknown number. Without answering I Googled the number and found it may have been a "virtual kidnapping" scam, or some other ploy to separate me from my money. I heard a story (sorry, can't cite source) about a woman who went into a panic thinking a loved one had been kidnapped during her vacation in Mexico, and spent half a day trying to get help for said loved one. Turns out the loved one was out having fun, away from a cell phone. This poor woman, and several others she contacted for assistance, all suffered at the hands of a con artist. Fortunately for her, no money was exchanged, but I am sure others are not as fortunate. Be aware of who is calling you...
