POPSBirther Queen meltsdown on MSNBC blames MSM “Brownshirts” And the comedy continues. It was only a matter of time before these lunatics came up with ‘proof’ in the form of an obviously faked document. Their 15 minutes of fame is over. Let this nonsense die a peaceful, and lasting, death. The video is pretty special.

POPSBush Latest GOPer to Show Democrats Better for the Economy ...President Bush's administration was marked by a recession that began two months after he took office and another downturn in his final year of office. In the end, the economy during his term added enough jobs to employ only 14 percent of the added number of working-age Americans, the lowest proportion of any postwar administration. Employment grew at a compound annual rate of only 0.3 percent, half the 0.6 percent rate that his father had recorded in what had previously been the worst post-World War II performance.

POPSISPs Neglect Infrastructure: Think of Capping Downloads Articles, like this one, do not take into consideration the growing trend of multiple internet ports per home. For example, a home could have a parent on one computer downloading news videos, a child on another computer downloading Netflix or MP3s, and a third child could be on a PS3/Xbox playing online. This type of house could easily surpass the monthly limits. Additionally, bandwidth needs typically doubles every year, so one house may only need 10 GB per month now. However, next year they will likely need 20GB per month. How are placing caps going to provide ISPs with incentive to increase their infrastructure? It will not!

POPS Oil Falls Below $64 As Economy Outweighs OPEC News that Japan's Nippon Oil plans a 15 percent cut in November crude oil refining, from a year earlier and data showing China's September oil demand growth was its slowest in 10 months also weighed on oil prices. Despite OPEC's Friday decision to cut back on production, oil prices have continued to slide. Kuwait's oil minister said OPEC was concerned about an oil price fall after it cut output but it would take time to decide if the cut was sufficient, while Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said OPEC should create a crude price band between $70 and $90 per barrel. Separately, crude oil speculators on the New York Mercantile Exchange shifted to a net long position while open interest dropped in the week to October 21, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission reported on Friday.
