POPSHalf of working age adults in this Illinois town unemployed What this politically correct piece doesn't say is the town is probably mostly black. So what does this tell you? Obama sprung from Illinois politics. Beyond any doubt, this town likely voted for Obama. How do you like that "hope and change" Pembroke citizens?? Welcome to Obama's Amerika.

POPSTV Series "V" -- Allegory or Propaganda? Tyranny comes with a smiling face and a promise of "hope" and "change". It means to "help" but it intends to dominate. Don't miss this "negative light" clip -- so well portrayed how the media is subdued. Of course the crafty deceiver is played so perfectly and politically-correct, by a woman. It does seem to have an apt moral to the story, a warning of universal global domination under the pretense of kindness, hope, love with a lot of change--an potent warning against Global Governance that we are moving toward. Be sure, however, that it is propaganda of some kind that only Hollywood would front, and Hollywood is not to be trusted either. After all, Star Trek's "Federation" represents precisely the same thing of utopian world or universal governance, or World Federal Union , versus the "Cling-Ons" that resist it which are painted as evil.

POPS And Tonight’s Winner of the Sputtering Idiotic Partisan Hyperbole Award Is… The Republicans and FOX News are not the enemies of health care. They are opposed to a massive government expansion that can only be brought about through prohibitive costs maintained by a confiscatory tax scheme, and that by its very nature will restrict individual liberties, and restrict freedom of choice in ways that the government simply has no authority to assert. The Republicans and FOX News are not the enemies of education. They simply realize that despite the fact that the federal government has over time usurped power over the field of education that rightly belongs to the states and their subject governments, there is no Constitutional authority for the federal government to continually interfere in education and foist a politically correct agenda onto the American Peoples’ children, nor is there any legal justification to supplant the parents’ rightful opinions for their own.

POPSBeing Politically Incorrect Isn't Edgy But At Least It's Honest Announcing to the world at large that your not "politically correct" doesn't make you a rebel or a cowboy, it doesn't make you edgy or tough. It just tells us that you are prejudiced and proud of it and have no intention of changing. Well at least your honest,I'll give you that much. Just don't expect me to respect you for it or not to call you on it.

POPS"Architects of Ruin" throw out common sense and decades of experience in order to make loans that were almost certain to go unpaid. The effort was launched during the Carter administration but really gained momentum and a head of steam during the Clinton years. (GOPers shouldn't feel too smug as the Bush administration continued and even expanded the practice). "Architects of Ruin" can be advance-ordered now on Amazon.com. No doubt, it will generate a flood of negative reviews from liberals in the mainstream media and their allies in the political and academic worlds in part because of sensational tidbits like the fact White House Chief of Staff was paid "more than $46,000 an hour as a board member for Freddie Mac ." What caught my eye today, though, concerns a little known fact about a long-forgotten class-action lawsuit filed in 1994 by three young trial lawyers, one of whom just happens to be sitting in the Oval Office today as president.

POPS“Political Correctness” is a reactionary term against the loss of privilege. The term politically correct is a reactionary term ... created by people who were worried by changes…that affected their everyday understanding of the world in ways that pointed out their role in creating or reproducing dominance and subordination. the indignation people feel against PC ideas reflects the discomfort we feel when language and politics begin to pull away from the dominant values we grew up with—in other words, white, middle-class values. in its original context, PC was a pejorative term used by people who felt they were losing something. many sociologists and historians today have come to a consensus on what they call it: it’s a loss of privilege—and in terms of race, a loss of white privilege.

POPSWal-Mart is PCx2; politically correct and pornography correct? Wal-Mart takes spy cam to new heights. Discounting the context entirely - photos of their own kids while on vacation - Wal-Mart and authorities dump on a family because of someone's PC over-reaction! Go to you local DA to find out what photos you can or cannot take of your kids???

POPSCocoon of Denial So the Obama administration bans the use of the word “terror” and at the same time, broadens the definition of “torture” so that it can investigation and ultimately prosecute CIA officers who worked to extract crucial information from terrorists (oops, sorry, oppressed Islamic freedom fighters). The evil Dick Cheney has the audacity to question the wisdom of this strategy and is castigated by Left-leaning media and the Whitehouse. But what if Cheney is right? That's the question Douglas MacKinnon of The Baltimore Sun asks when he writes: The health-care debate? Cash for clunkers? Rising unemployment? None of that will matter if we lose an American city to terrorism. An intelligence operative told me that if terrorists successfully detonate a nuclear weapon on our soil and kill and wound hundreds of thousands of Americans, "the thin veneer of civilization will be ripped from our nation in an instant, and we could very well descend into barbarism.

POPSNormalizing transgenderism in schools "Well, it's a huge problem," he explains. "Number one...it legitimizes the concept of transgenderism among middle-school kids, which is completely absurd and offensive and medically dangerous. The medical community recognizes gender-identity disorder as something that needs psychological help, you know -- not this politically correct pandering that actually causes more self-destruction."

POPSThe Role of the Mexican Military in the Cartel War The subtext here is simple: the Mexican military is just one more cartel in the cartel war. Another subtext is that U.S. drug czar Gil Kerlikowske wants the US and Mexico to focus on so-called prevention and treatment, etc etc. This is quite politically correct but it means even more interference in Mexican society than before: people will be sent to reeducation camps instead of to jail, etc etc. Therefore, the bait and switch is still on: the war on drugs is destroying Mexican society far more than the drugs ever could or would. The next step, if U.S. drug czar Gil Kerlikowske has his way, is for it to begin destroying individual autonomy...

POPS"The Universe In Your Head" more (at source): Other physicists, however, point out that Lanza's view is fully in line with the perspective from quantum mechanics that the observer plays a huge role in how reality is observed. "So what Lanza says in this book is not new," Richard Conn Henry, a physics and astronomy professor at Johns Hopkins University, said in a book review. "Then why does Robert have to say it at all? It is because we, the physicists, do not say it - or if we do say it, we only whisper it, and in private - furiously blushing as we mouth the words. True, yes; politically correct, hell no!"

POPS"Dodomayor," and proud of it. I realized that Sotomayor does something I’ve heard before. She employs a very common strategy in the politically correct world of college campuses. In order to defend her position on racial preferences, she must first deny that she understands the terms. In her world, merit and ethnicity are synonymous. Therefore, one’s “experience” being Hispanic is equal with a high LSAT score. As Sotomayor points out, Hispanics and other minority students — though not Asians — score lower on many standardized tests. She acknowledges these “statistics.” Instead of attacking the real culprits of this discrepancy, likely poverty, poor education, and parental education levels, she believes the system itself must bend to accommodate “fairness.”
