POPSBo, the White House Dog 'Dumped' The baths, used up to 5 times a day during the spiritual holiday, before each prayer call, became a constant chore for the Secret Service Agents delegated to insure that the bath water was always at the right temperature, and purer than the bottled imported water favoured by the First Lady. Bo, the lovable retriever, who remained largely ignored after the first few photo ops in the rose garden, was forced to entertain himself due to lack of attention. Imagine his delight, when during investigation for discarded chicken and rib bones under the Obama Dining Table, he was able to find 17 private pools for his canine delight! Bo, who is black, is said to be happy in his new home and doesn't feel that his 'dumping' was racially motivated.

POPSThe definition of fascio It cannot be stated too many times that Mussolini himself recognized the ideas and writings of Woodrow Wilson in support of his ideology. Everyone should read Wilson's writings and speeches about why he is a Progressive. It is startling. We have seen under GW Bush and now at hyper-speed under Obama the rise of Wilsonian Progressivism, which is fascism. People often make the mistake of assuming the hate of Hitler and the brutality of Mussolini and other fascists is the definitive nature of Fascism. They are not. As highlighted in this clip, fascism has a specific meaning. This is where we are today. America was fascist-light under Woodrow Wilson. We are heading that way again. More power to the Fed, General Electric, liberty being evaporated by government/corporate paradigms such as energy, general electric, healthcare, auto industry, the integration of compulsory service and more to come.

POPSLimabaugh To Specter:Take McCain & His Daughter With You "This is a sad day for the GOP," Michael Smerconish, a longtime conservative radio host in Philadelphia, told the Huffington Post. "He is what the party needed to be. They need to cultivate more Specters instead of deriding him as a RINO .... The fact that Michael Steele is deriding him for his left wing record is just the same type of bullshit of playing to the base." Pointing to a Washington Post poll that showed only 21 percent of voters identify themselves as Republicans, Smerconish concluded: "I think the number is down to 20 percent." Meanwhile Sen. Olympia Snowe of Maine, one of the few remaining moderate Republicans in the Senate, told the Huffington Post Tuesday that Specter's abandonment of the GOP is "devastating," both "personally and I think for the party."

POPSWho Would the Teabaggers Hate More Than Obama - Reagan
From the article: The graph looks at total federal debt (blue line) and debt as a percentage of GDP (red line). Obviously World War II represented a significant period of the spending with the government taking on debt (much of it in the form of war bonds) to finance the war (see the redline which represents debt as percentage of GDP). This high debt load was unwound over the following decades. In 1981 this downward trend reverses and begins to rocket back upward. That upward trend is not arrested until 1994 when it flattens and starts a downward trend until 2001 when it starts to climb up again. During the 1980s the debt blossomed from $700 billion to nearly $3 trillion establishing a credit card bill so high (in comparison to near-term past decades) as to engender America with a "fuck it" attitude. The teabag argument that high deficit spending leads to inevitable tax hikes has credibility. George H. W. Bush who was the president immediately after this period was forced to

POPSObama Pressured Blago To Pick Who He Wanted For Seat Now the awkwardness of the Obama denials make sense. This political problem arose in part because Obama was so eager to appear purer than any politician can actually be. In his initial statements, he sounded as if he was trying to say that he knew nothing at all about the selection of his successor. “I had no contact with the governor or his office and so we were not, I was not aware of what was happening,” he told the press, and refused to elaborate. That remark clarified nothing; today it seems like obfuscation at best and prevarication at worst. Nobody is likely to believe that Emanuel spoke more than 20 times with Blagojevich or the governor’s aide John Harris without informing Obama about those conversations. To insist that he had “no contact” when his top aide was involved in so many contacts is precisely the kind of parsing that undermines confidence. Emphasis mine.

POPSClean thoughts can soften moral judgments "Throughout our language, the vocabulary of physical cleanliness is also used to describe moral cleanliness. We describe saints as pure and thieves as dirty; consciences can be clean and sins can be washed away. But more and more, psychological studies tell us that these concepts are entwined in a very real way. The act of cleaning, or even just thinking about the concept of cleanliness, can influence a person's moral compass, swinging it towards a less judgmental direction"

POPSBottled water has contaminants too, study finds This is a fact, faucet water is considered "filtered" water because your local municipality filters it for you, but thats usually done with Chlorine a known cancer causing substance.. Since I sell water filtration systems I always tell people never buy bottled water! Between the time it arrives at your home its been in that bottle way to long never mind the fact of what I just previously mentioned.. Yet they sell that stuff for $1.50 or more to just contaminate you more.. If you wish to see an excellent system which synergy uses a 1micron carbon block filter, UV light and Ozone then visit my site: www.cleanairbiz.com and click on Living Water tab.. NSF Certified!

POPSBottled water has contaminants too, study finds Love the spokesperson. A contaminant is not a contaminant until it exceeds recommended levels. Does anyone have a lot of faith in a body that has consistently taken aboard test results that were not adequate. Same for the Federal Standards mob.

POPSPoor at higher risk of death after intensive care: study The study reached it's conclusions and they should be used as a basis of improving survival rates. Whilst I acknowledge that the poor use drugs to escape the boredom, or whatever, all other "classes" use drugs. The rich will not need pain killers, they have purer stuff at home.

POPSSweet Deal:Economical Biodiesel Chop up sugarcane. Feed it to bacteria. Produce diesel fuel. Bacteria will begin pooping out Mack-truck grade diesel fuel in test amounts next year and in commercial amounts in 2010 under a new joint venture announced today between a Northern California biotech company and a Brazilian sugarcane processor. Unlike ethanol, which draws the bulk of alternative biofuel attention, the bacterial fuel can be distributed through existing infrastructure, according to Amyris.
