FTA: " If liberals are so devoted to "evidence and logic," then how come Social Security and Medicare sport unfunded liabilities two or three times the GDP? If liberals are so shocked by racism, how come they condone the antics of the Justice Brothers and Reverends Jackson and Sharpton? If liberals are so appalled by sinister campaign tactics, then how come they spent 2009, the year the locusts ate, writing 2,000-page bills in secret after concluding corrupt bargains with special interest lobbies?". AMEN to that!

POPSChristian teacher 'forced out' after complaining Muslim pupils praised 9/11 hijackers 'as heroes' Mr Kafouris, a Greek Cypriot, taught for 12 years at Bigland Green Primary School in Tower Hamlets, East London. According to Ofsted 'almost all' its 465 pupils are from ethnic minorities and a vast proportion do not speak English as a first language. The teacher claims racial discrimination by the school, its headmistress and her assistant head after they failed to take action about the comments made by pupils to him. He said there was a change in attitude of the pupils after the atrocities of September 11, 2001. They told him: 'We hate the Christians' and 'We hate the Jews', despite his attempts to stop them. He said he filled out a Racist Incident Reporting Sheet but claimed headmistress Jill Hankey dismissed his concerns. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk

"But we all love music and share a common goal: we're fighting against racism and discrimination."

POPSRadical Islam Is Worth Saving From The Left-Wing Apologists So while the crotchbomber and other radical Islam scum are planning our demise, how about we dump on Christians? Ok? Last time I checked, churches across the nation were pouring in aid to Haiti, giving shelter and food to the homeless, and fighting against those who are trying to destroy our way of life.

POPSWho is Howard Zinn? He was 87yrs old and died yesterday Some more from the article: Only Howard could pull that off because he was entirely authentic. When he spoke against poverty it was from the perspective of someone who had to work in the shipyards during the Great Depression. When he spoke against war, it was from the perspective of someone who flew as a bombardier during World War II, and was forever changed by the experience. When he spoke against racism it was from the perspective of someone who taught at Spelman College during the civil rights movement and was arrested sitting in with his students."

POPSBrits: Lord Goldsmith Approved Illegal War
Oh my....now it appears there was, there IS and international conspiracy of evil warmongers and zionist sympathizers lying to promote wars. Humm...I think this is one of those ideas associated with racism -- but what to do, or say when today's news reveals it to be a 'fact on the ground." One of the Big Lies used in Good Old Great Britain and Home Sweet Home USA was that the war in Iraq was somehow approved by the UN. But the war was Not Approved by the UN. Not even close. (Well....Tony Blair and George Bush were certainly trying hard --- but 'no cigar.' - i.e. no UN approval). In fact, It's against the UN charter to approve the war in Iraq the way it unfolded. For the UN to approve it meant the UN would have to be in command and it would be UN troops....not British and USA troops deciding to appoint themselves Sheriff. Do the Brits still hang people for treason? Or is it still a crime against humanity to deliberately lie and cause the death of millions? That's the q

POPSChristianity Is Worth Saving From The Right-Wing Christians Most of the great moral battles in our nations history--the fight for civil rights, a living wage, aid to the poor, disabled and homeless, health care, protection of the environment, as well as the fight against unnecessary and illegal wars have been inspired by faith. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was so certain of the righteousness of his causes that he declared, "If we are wrong, God Almighty is wrong! If we are wrong, Jesus of Nazareth was merely a utopian dreamer and never came down to earth." Dr. King was right. Jesus calls His followers to political action. And His agenda is not to wage more wars, amass more wealth, and despoil the environment--as we find in the Republican playbook. His agenda is to preach and practice peace, spread the wealth, alleviate poverty, and protect the environment. I reject any notion of morality being limited to the religious right.

POPSIs it racist when white people deny that racism exists? It's a subconscious choice. It's to avoid the pangs of guilt that they would otherwise feel if they acknowledged racism does exist. And finally, I have come across white people who purposely deny that something is racist just to get a rise out of you. This situation is racism. Bottom line. You don't have to look to white people to acknowledge racism. You cannot count on them to identify racism. They are simply not capable of that. When you feel down or upset talk to someone else who's been through it. I am Somali and in those situations I have tried to talk to white people in the past. They just cannot fathom that in 2009 things like that happen. Talk to a black or Asian ,Latino person. They'll know where you're coming from. It always helps to bounce things off of people who share your experiences. Yours Faithfully Mowlid

POPSSotomayor, Evangelicals, and Racism The Evangelical understanding of salvation and spiritual life is built around the ongoing relationship the Christian has with Jesus. Being “born again” is the beginning of a lifelong one-on-one relationship with Jesus, that will change the Christian from the inside out, making him or her more holy and Christ-like. The focus here is on the individual and the locus of change is within the individual.

POPSNO HE CAN'T Dr. Wortham is author of "The Other Side of Racism: A Philosophical Study of Black Race Consciousness" which analyzes how race consciousness is transformed into political strategies and policy issues. She has published numerous articles on the implications of individual rights for civil rights policy, and is currently writing a book on theories of social and cultural marginality. Recently, she has published articles on the significance of multiculturalism and Afrocentricism in education, the politics of victimization and the social and political impact of political correctness. Shortly after an interview in 2004, she was awarded tenure. This article (below) by her is something.

POPSA geologist's perspective on the Port-au-Prince earthquake more @ clip source: 4. And the last thing that conspired to doom Port-au-Prince is a long and sordid post-colonial history. Following a successful slave revolt- the second independence movement in the Western Hemisphere- Haiti suffered from 200 years of neglect- from plain-and-simple racism in the 19th century to poor governance with the Duvalier’s in the 20th century. And then to really finish off the picture of neglect, the privatization, deregulation and neglect that comes with neoliberalization left the care of the people in the hands of… of… Well, nobody.

POPSTea Party Becomes the 'Vote Our Way or We Shoot You' Party Jeffrey McQueen: We can go to the soap box, the ballot box, or we can go to the jury box. And hopefully we won't have to go to the bullet box. Ashbrook: Bullet box? Are you talking about armed revolution? McQueen: Have you seen the ammunition sales the last twelve months? So remember, folks, health care for the poor? That's Nazi BS! True American heroes take up arms to overthrow democratic elections. Got it?

POPSHarry Reid's in Hot Water. But What About "Teflon Bill" Clinton Former President Clinton’s comments about Barack Obama were far more harsh than Harry Reid’s, but he’s gotten away with it—so far. Bill's gone to Haiti: once again, if he said it, he will "get away with it." more Blacks went to prison under Clinton and he also signed NAFTA. The loss of jobs affected Blacks disproportionally A few reasons why Clinton did not get my vote in '96.

POPSHaitian Catastrophe: For Racists, a Good Laugh
Roper’s charming post, featuring a photo of castration shears, goes on to say that if those citizens then go for nine months without producing children, he will send them a can opener. “Physical evidence of the castration process should be mailed by the applying food aid recipients to Barack Obama,” he adds. For most Americans, the sight of the catastrophe in Haiti provoked an outpouring of sympathy and support for the victims. Early reports suggest that most structures in the island’s capital city of Port au Prince were damaged or destroyed. Men, women and children are wandering the streets with horrific injuries, and the cries trapped victims still are emanating from underneath tons of rubble. But Billy Roper and those like him — characters like the sterling defenders of the white race who populate the loathsome Stormfront.org, the world’s largest white supremacist Web forum — are not like most Americans. Just have a listen to some of the voices on Stormfront: • “Money s
