POPSGive me back my kidney, or pay the consequences!
There is neither ethical nor legal justification for demanding the kidney or compensation. An organ donation is a gift. We have specifically prohibited the selling of organs for just this reason. Ethically, we believe that the only acceptable reason for donating an organ to another person is altruism. You give the organ because you want the other person to get it. What happens after that is irrelevant. If you cannot sue to get your kidney back because you now have a medical need for it, you certainly do not have grounds to sue to get it back simply because you are angry with the recipient. This case is not about the commodification of organs, either. No only do we prohibit the selling of organs, but we hold both the donor and recipient harmless in the action. The donor cannot sue the recipient for the costs associated with the donation, and the recipient cannot sue the donor if the donor had an undiagnosed medical problem that was transmitted with the organ. Experts in both law

POPSThe "Rick Warren Albatross" around Obama's neck Rick Warren thinks that while infidelity & abandonment are cause for divorce, spousal abuse is no . That's because wives are supposed to submit to their husband's leadership in all things. He can piss away the family money, beat you & the kids, yell and scream at you and call you a lying whore... just as long as he shows up to church on Sunday. Suck it up, Daughter of Eve. God has ordained your lot, and Pastor Rick is here to remind your husband of his rights over you. And you still can't be guy & join his church. This is who Obama picked to pray to a particular sky deity when being inaugurated as President of all citizens of the USA, religious or not . Obama gets to choose who he wants. But there are a whole lot of us who are not going to take it quietly, and in fact plan to continue shining a light on the kind of person Pastor Rick is. Hint: The difference between Rick & James Dobson (Rick tells us) is "tone".

POPSWelcome to the new corrupt South Africa Oh, and add to that our future president, Jacob Zuma, who is still facing bribery and corruption charges and was found not guilty of raping an AIDS-infected lesbian. (he assured all South Africans that he was in no danger of contracting HIV because he had immediately afterwards taken a shower) Life in South Africa is about as surreal as it gets.

POPSCongress' Facts Of Pride I am ashamed of the silent majority of the United Stated for sticking the heads in the sand. If the sand heads do not wake up we are all going to be socialist. It is time for 'Power To The People' Revolution time!
