POPSThe United States’ Place in The World … and he needs to grow a set via Weekly Standard, Lieberman, Kyl and Bayh, “Whatever it takes … crippling sanctions.” I dunno, I can think of other measures that might be more effectively crippling. Whatever … Also at WS, Steven Hayes, hurtfully, “Speak timidly and don’t carry a stick.” Ralph Peters, NYPost, cruelly: “Appease-y does it for weak Prez on the road to a Mideast apocalypse.” Greenwald, Should any Iraq lessons be applied to Iran? I can think of a few quick applicable Iraq lessons off the top of my head. Whack one tyrant, the rest notice. Also, whacking tyrants effectively neutralizes their ability to cause trouble. Also, follow-on is important, don’t let the Euros weasel out of it, and ignore the Dems and the anti-war American left. They are loud, but harmless.

POPSPeople Power! SILENCE is complicity. Our president’s refusal to take a forthright moral stand on the side of the Iranian freedom marchers is read in Tehran as a blank check for the current regime. The fundamentalist junta has begun arresting opposition figures, with regime mouthpieces raising the prospect of the death penalty. Inevitably, there are claims that dissidents have been “hoarding weapons and explosives.” Foreign media reps are under house arrest. Cellphone frequencies are jammed. Students are killed and the killings disavowed. And our president is “troubled,” but doesn’t believe we should “meddle” in Iran’s internal affairs. (Meddling in Israel’s domestic affairs is just fine, though.) We just turned our backs on freedom. Again. … For decades, Washington policymakers from both parties have prodded Iranians to throw off their shackles. Last Friday, millions of Iranians stood up. And we’re standing down. That isn’t diplomacy. It’s treachery

POPSAmerican Stonehenge: Monumental Instructions for the Post-Apocalypse The mysterious story of R. C. Christian and the absence of information about the true meaning of the Guidestones was bound to become an irresistible draw for conspiracy theorists and "investigators"of all kinds. Not surprisingly, three decades later there is no shortage of observers rushing to fill the void with all sorts of explanations. Indeed strange...

POPS Pretty Good Week!!! But if you have any question as to whether or not her visit, meant to spin the fuck out of the foul shit going on at GITMO, is a symptom of all that is wrong and unholy in the world, take a look at what one right wing *nutblog had to say in support of her: Miss Venezuela Dayana Mendoza, by the way, was crowned Miss Universe in July 2008 in Nha Trang, Vietnam . It’s like she’s the In-Your-Face Ambassador of Free World Hotness to the Commie Holdout World. And scene. *Miss Venezuela Hearts Guantanamo http://www.julescrittenden.com/2009/03/31/miss-universe-hearts-guantanamo/

POPSIn Order for Change - We Must Be Willing to Change
The media is ripe with chicken little running amuch. The article below points this out even more so. My take on it, even as I keep clipping all the bad news, is that for our society, our world, and the future to change, people must change first. There is way too much greed - which is what got everyone, all over the world into this mess. The guys at the top need $50million+ salaries and bonuses, which meant the worker bees down the line needed find that "honey" some place. So find ways to spew propoganda that everyone needs bigger houses, oh and not just one - but a second or third for vacations, which most people would have little time to take since they needed to keep working to have that lifesytle. People need bigger and more expensive cars, but wait - where to get the money - take out second mortgage. So the greed progressed down the chain here in the US and of course the demand drove output elsewhere in the world and the cheap labor started making lots of money for producing

POPSObama Survival Kit Dogs provide security when away from the car and if you run out of food, you haven’t quite run out of food– if you know what I mean. Name him after your last boss before profitable jobs were made illegal by the United Globe of Governments. Pick your criminal underworld gang carefully. You can choose between the PompaDodds, the Lispy Franks and the Pelosidactyls. If offered a brand or a facial tattoo to show gang loyalty, it’s a good sign. Buy lots of dog food from Costco or Walmart. If you get it by the case, and it’s made in China you can get it cheap. Plus lead poisoning has been known to aid night-vision. This food is not for the dog. This is for human consumption only. The dog has to eat from the new McDonald’s all-organic menu. Since the Freedom Of Speech Act made talk radio illegal, only National Socialist Public Radio is available. Don’t listen to NSPR without the aid of caffeine, amphetamines or else sleep-driving will occur.

POPSLift The Curtain An excellent editorial by Bob Herbert in today's N.Y.Times.This is a very sad and empty time we are experiencing.To think that this information regarding the treatment of our wounded troops at Walter Reed Hospital is only just coming out now is DISGRACEFUL.I can't believe it took this long ! Imagine if our President wasn't " compassionate".
