POPS What Would Stuart Smalley Do? Sounds noble, yet tragic. But “pragmatist” just doesn’t seem to describe what we’ve witnessed in any of his endeavors over the past 11 months. How about, an incompetent neophyte taking bad advice who tried to please everyone and failed, not least because he didn’t actually have a plan or a process for developing one in the first place, nor did he waste much energy trying to sell what he didn’t have, though he did signal from the start that, lacking actual principles, he was willing to jettison whatever might resemble one as needed.

POPSNBC's Zucker: The Industry's Punching Bag Though Zucker's resume includes far more successes (cable, news, today show) than it does failures (prime-time), he is most associated with NBC' prime-time problems and will remain a press pinata until the network climbs out of the ratings basement -- or Comcast brass replace him, whichever comes first.

POPSMobs, Bullies and Fascists 101
The shock-jocks like Limbaugh are out there in the shadows of their microphones waiting to make an attack on the innate fears of the populous. They exaggerate, amplify, blow out of proportion and hyperbolize everything and I mean EVERYTHING that may cause apprehension amongst those who are unaware of what the radio host real motive is (make ada BIG BUCKS!). In other words they prey upon the gullible for gain. I wish these vulnerable people could become informed the old fashion way by reading and inquiring the many information outlets available (legitimate newspapers and educational library books) but that's too difficult for them, plus they may be too worn-out from the hard lives they are forced to lead, due to lack of information and education. It's just too easy to click a knob on the old TV or radio and tune into the shows that dumb down their audiences. Also, the Limbaugh's give them a punching bag to direct their pant-up anger at. It’s not only sad, it’s criminal.

POPSthings to remember on Dysfunctional Families Day There are a plenitude of days for celebrating your parents and getting together with your family. There aren’t a lot of days when you can admit that your parents actually drove you completely bats, or that you’d rather learn autotrepanning with a Black and Decker than sit down with the people who made your first 18 years a misery. And some people need that, because that’s the truth, and pretending otherwise is poison to the soul. Today is the autumnal equinox. Things are in balance, but shifting toward the darkness. What better day to use for this purpose? (For Southern Hemisphere readers, today is yet another day when your experience is overridden by the thoughtless majority, which is an equally valid reason.) Now, I’m not really qualified to discuss this matter, because, well, I kinda like my family…So let me yield the floor to those whose day this really is. What are you doing today, to either live with your past or transcend it?

POPSSuspicion of Capitalism What ideas and ideals are needed for freedom to flourish? History offers no better answer than the American story. Two centuries ago, the Founding Fathers blazed the path to a capitalist future by creating a nation based on the individual's right to life, liberty, property and the selfish pursuit of his own personal happiness. For the first time, a nation's social system embodied approval of profit-seeking, the lifeblood of capitalism. America's founding principles, all but forgotten today, facilitated the explosive economic globalization of the 19th century and remain our only hope for freedom in the 21st century.

POPSGut Check Time for White Americans The Wright affair has such resonance in this campaign because Wright has shown himself to be the kind of black person that white people don't like. He brings out our prejudices. Yes, I said "our" prejudices. Part of it is Wright's ignorance and part of it is his arrogance and part of it is that he talks louder than white people would prefer and part of it is that he uses the sing-song cadence they associate with other black ministers they have grown to hate over the years such as Jesse Jackson. Obama is none of those things (OK, maybe a little arrogant at times), so Wright has been brought to the forefront as a substitute punching bag.

POPSIn defense of William Ayers But to call Ayers a "terrorist" and throw him in the Osama bin Laden pile is a reach for the moral high ground by the very people and political establishment that secretly carpet bombed Cambodia, murdering hundreds of thousands of civilians. ...Ayers is no martyr, and he's no role model. But he doesn't deserve to be the punching bag of the moral cretins who still celebrate lying wars of aggression and the pointless slaughter of untold thousands.

POPSAn Underappreciated musician is gone I used to love to listen to Johnny Carson rag on Tommy Newsom on the evenings he would fill in for Doc Severinsen. Doc was such a flamboyant, larger-than-life personality and Tommy was so meek and quiet. But when Tommy played is sax, he was right up there with the best of them.
