POPSCovering up American History Prior to 1877 This is a primary goal of progressives. They need to separate us from the founders and our founding principles. In order to "progress" beyond the Constitution, we need to forget the Constitution and the ideas behind it.

POPSIntelligent Optimism Optimism can be decided upon; it is simply an attitude of mind - as is pessimism! We can not never know whether tomorrow will be as good or as bad as yesterday or today - until tomorrow comes, and by then it's already too late. So choose well, and go well

POPSScientists say crack HIV/AIDS puzzle for drugs It took more than 40,000 trials for them to come up with one a crystal of sufficiently high quality to allow them to see the three-dimensional structure, they said. They tested the drugs that block integrase on the crystals, and were able to see for the first time how the medicines bind to, and block it.

Not to be too selfish but - the best and the brightest still want to come here to be free and to make money - but we just put up roadblocks.

POPSUnder GOP/McCain Record Deficits Would Have Happened - Reports McCain's Top Campaign Advisor In December 2009, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities concluded that the then-$1.4 trillion annual deficit run by the government under Obama had much to do with the Bush administration's package of tax cuts, the wars it launched in Iraq and Afghanistan and its response to the recession. Those findings mirrored a report released a month earlier by the Democratic-leaning Center for American Progress -- which concluded that much of the deficit was owed to the decrease in tax receipts the federal government was receiving as a result of the recession.

POPSIdeology And Tactics
What particular ideology are we speaking about here? If it is the strategy of acquiring power and wealth and control as opposed to the rush from day one to hand over to corporate buddies every piece of public land, every vital government function this isn't bolted down, entrusting the environmental regulation to the polluters, the huge federal debt King George left us, the widening wealth gap between the top and the bottom--actually top and middle--which Republicans are not merely indifferent to, but I believe quite pleased about. Did I forget trying to block or reverse every bit of social and political progress we have made? If they had their way at each step, we'd still have slavery, aristocracy, and monarchy everywhere; little freedom of speech, the press, no social safety net. Now--while all of this works quite well for powerful interest groups, it is not working for the American people or our economy and it never did no matter how many times they package it differently.
