POPS"And we shall call this 'Moff's Law'" More: …Finally, this should also go without saying, but since it apparently doesn’t: Believe me, the person who is annoying you so much by thinking about the art? They have already considered your revolutionary “just enjoy it” strategy, because it is not actually revolutionary at all. It is the default state for most of humanity. So when you go out of your way to suggest that people should be thinking less — that not using one’s capacity for reason is an admirable position to take, and one that should be actively advocated — you are not saying anything particularly intelligent. And unless you live on a parallel version of Earth where too many people are thinking too deeply and critically about the world around them and what’s going on in their own heads, you’re not helping anything; on the contrary, you’re acting as an advocate for entropy.

POPSHuckabee Proves That You Can Be An Honorable Man And Still Disagree I don't agree with his politics, but Mike Huckabee demonstrates here that he at least understands the meaning of being 'honorable' and 'respectful.' I think he's got a lot of courage to make these statements, given the right wing's current apocalyptic-style rants they call political discourse.

POPS Combat Wounded, Combat Dead
defense such as we’re already seeing explored on his behalf … rather than as a committed jihadi, an unlawful combatant, a terrorist, a deserter who aided and abetted the enemy, and a traitor who took up arms against his nation. It’s a push Republican lawmakers and those Democrats who agree could take up, that would command a lot of public support. Politicization of justice? Tell me that hasn’t happened already in this country. I’d call it a simple demand for justice. We owe it to the dead and the wounded to acknowledge why and under what circumstances they died and bled. Here’s an American hero who deserves the highest honors we can bestow on her. NY Daily News. Sgt. Kimberly Munley, cop, gunfighting woman. Went into a hot situation without regard for her own safety, gave better than she got, wounded in action, got the job done. I’d call that gallantry and valor in the face of the enemy, plus war wounds. Maybe even above and beyond. She’s reportedly an Army vet.

POPSBeck: Black Obama fans were 'taught to be slaves,' while progressives like Stern are 'taking you to 
This goes beyond mere coded words and "coincidental" targeting -- this is just naked ol' racial stereotyping of the lowest kind. It came, incidentally, at the end of an equally incendiary attack on the SEIU's Andy Stern -- the day before, Beck told his audience that Stern was "really running our country" -- which he wrapped up with a truly vicious attack on both the Obama White House and on progressives in general: Most likely, it'll happen sometime after Christmas. You're gonna see this economy come up -- we're already seeing it, and now it's gonna start coming back down again. And when you see the effects of what they're doing to the economy, remember these words: We will survive. No -- we'll do better than survive, we will thrive. As long as these people are not in control. They are taking you to a place to be slaughtered! The fearmongering doesn't get much more naked than that. Combined with the race-baiting, that's quite a show Fox News has there.

POPSPM Netanyahu's Address to The Nations Here is a copy of those minutes, in which the Nazis issued precise instructions on how to carry out the extermination of the Jews. Is this a lie? A day before I was in Wannsee, I was given in Berlin the original construction plans for the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. Those plans are signed by Hitler's deputy, Heinrich Himmler himself. Here is a copy of the plans for Auschwitz-Birkenau, where one million Jews were murdered. Is this too a lie? This June, President Obama visited the Buchenwald concentration camp. Did President Obama pay tribute to a lie? And what of the Auschwitz survivors whose arms still bear the tattooed numbers branded on them by the Nazis? Are those tattoos a lie? One-third of all Jews perished in the conflagration. Nearly every Jewish family was affected, including my own. My wife's grandparents, her father's two sisters and three brothers, and all the aunts, uncles and cousins were all murdered by the Nazis. Is that also a lie?

POPSSkewed Priorities Raise Their Ugly Heads. Blackwater/Xe is one of the dirtiest companies around. They murder, lie, steal and cheat. They have defrauded U.S. taxpayers of MILLIONS of dollars and have refused to be accountable, not only for the money but also for well documented murder and rape among other crimes. And we just let it ride and keep on paying them more. Meanwhile, li'l ole Acorn hires a couple of idiots who appear to hand out questionable advice to a couple of ringers, and man, are we all over it! Instantaneous cut-off of funding and front page rants and raves. In the immortal words of Yakov Smirnoff, "What a country"!

POPSGood Labour parentalship
Preachers beware. Having listened to the sanctimonious rants from Madam Hewitt for all these years, and having hoped it was good riddance when she resigned... To all Labour supporters, if you cannot tell your friends, and I mean the lying, thieving shits who stole handsomely from the Public Purse whilst lesser mortals were being convicted of petty cash crimes and criminalised for not being able to afford decent advocacy, how can you moralise to a basically moral public. Your corrupt seedlings have really sprouted. Just look at what YOU, and I mean You Labour supporters, have fostered on decent British people. The list of criminal activity in your ranks reads – Mandelson, three times removed from office, Hazel Blears who cannot see corruption from her cell in Salford. Who is that woman whose husband is on trial for corruption in Italy? My memory cannot retain all these names of Labour crooks. I’d like to list the decent Labour MP’s but as the only one I know is resigning at the

POPSMy Czars are Bigger than Your Czars Staying in the fast lane, right-wing nut jobs have dived into the non-issue of how many "czars," does the President have. Of course, to understand the Republican wing nuts one must sign onto a lot of flights of paranoia and fantasy: The U.S. doesn't have any post called a "czar." So...if trying to fill in the pot holes in their Republican smear campaign heads...they must mean "middle management positions," or something like that. Even worse, if trying to find a flake of facts in these right wing rants, the truth turns out to be like jackass and jerk, "Got It Wrong Congressman Wilson," who LIED when he called the President a liar, it turns out that George Bush had more "czars," that Obama, as this video concludes. I.E. - The Bush Era has more middle managers....or whatever the heck the wing nuts think of as "czars." Their Alice-in-Wonderland smear circus is like a dog chasing its own tail.

POPSWrong Way Wilson Gets Bad Mark
This article is full of the excuses and made-up criticisms typical of Republican rants these days. But near the end it mentions the mild action in the House....Wilson got an "F," for failure to obey the rules. The thing that makes him a real JERK, imo, is that he got his fact wrong or was just trash talking without any facts: the health care reforms have no "Death Panels," - the health care reform specifically mentioned it doesn't apply to Every Person in the World (just citizens), so you're a real jerk to be a liar yourself and trying to smear someone else. As the House said, "reprehensible conduct." - Congress can't function if idiots scream and yell insults at each other all day, thus, there are rules of behavior. You wanna call the President a liar, do it on your own time, not while he's speaking to a Joint session of Congress. Like you don't win at sports by insulting the refs... But lies, fear, smear, no fact, bullies, this is all the Republicans have to offer t

POPSThe 10 Most Annoying Everyday Devices of Modern Civilization Not all gadgets provide an improvement to our lives. Many gadgets serve to anger and annoy their users and others around them more than they actually provide any positive function. Here’s a list of gadgets and devices that have all undoubtedly found themselves at the wrong end of a mallet or strip of asphalt countless times. The photos and rantings are amusing. I favorite rants are about the aftermarket car audio system and the car alarm.

POPSDear Republicans: An angry but heartfelt rant More: I'm sick of your rewriting of history. You've bleated so loud and long that Reagan was a great president, that the New Deal didn't work, that cutting taxes increases revenues, that you actually have the people believing this bullshit… I'm sick of your dragging the center ever further to the right. How many whackjob fringe ideas have you dragged into the mainstream? …you push these ideas through your corporate media and you do it so long and loud that they become part of the accepted political landscape and because it is easier to tell a lie than to debunk one, we never get away from this rancid shit… I'm sick of your casual criminality…all I've heard from my rightist friends for days is Chappaquiddick, Chappaquiddick, Chappaquiddick. Your fucking golden boy raped the Constitution…and you bastards are obsessed with a fucking accident a Democrat had decades ago? Plus much more, too long to clip.

POPSObama's Healthcare Horror ~ Camille Paglia except in five competing, fluctuating drafts, makes Washington seem like Cloud Cuckoo Land. You can keep your doctor; you can keep your insurance, if you're happy with it, Obama keeps assuring us in soothing, lullaby tones. Oh, really? And what if my doctor is not the one appointed by the new government medical boards for ruling on my access to tests and specialists? And what if my insurance company goes belly up because of undercutting by its government-bankrolled competitor? Face it: Virtually all nationalized health systems, neither nourished nor updated by profit-driven private investment, eventually lead to rationing. I just don't get it. Why the insane rush to pass a bill, any bill, in three weeks? And why such an abject failure by the Obama administration to present the issues to the public in a rational, detailed, informational way? The U.S. is gigantic; many of our states are bigger than whole European nations.

POPSFrom the Mouth of a Liberal And what do Democrats stand for, if they are so ready to defame concerned citizens as the "mob" -- a word betraying a Marie Antoinette delusion of superiority to ordinary mortals.

And as a product of the 1960s, I thought the Democratic party was passionately committed to freedom of thought and speech.

POPSBlack Officers Sue Philadelphia PD for Domelights.com Racism Think and say as you wish, but don't pretend that those same thoughts and words don't effect how you treat people when on the job. domelights.com has suspended all services. I just watched the news clip on fox's website. It says that the lawsuit states that this speech isnt protected by the First Ammendment. If thats so scumbags like the KKK, black Panthers, Aryan Nation, Michael Crook,MSNBC (sorry. Couldnt resist!) etc. would have never existed. How is what we say here NOT protected? And if for some unknown reason the GCL wins, who gets the money? Does every black cop in the PPD get a cut of that? All this does is get the GCL more free publicity from the worthless media in this city Legal analysis of the case at Litigation and Trial , a Philly attorney's blog.

POPS A Post-Racial President? by Thomas Sowell Anyone who can believe that Obama did not understand what the racist rants of Jeremiah Wright meant can believe anything. With race-- as with campaign finance, transparency and the rest-- Barack Obama knows what the public wants to hear and that is what he has said. But his policies as president have been the opposite of his rhetoric, with race as with other issues. As a state senator in Illinois, Obama pushed the "racial profiling" issue, so it is hardly surprising that he jumped to the conclusion that a policeman was racial profiling when in fact the cop was investigating a report received from a neighbor that someone seemed to be breaking into the house that Professor Gates was renting in Cambridge. For those who are interested in facts-- and these obviously do not include President Obama-- there has been a serious study of racial profiling in a book titled "Are Cops Racist?" by Heather Mac Donald. Her analysis of the data shows how this issue
