POPSPalin - Republican Party Infiltrator? Damning Video. CONTD: "So…basically what he’s saying here, is that Palin’s philosophical loyalties lie with the Alaska Independence Party, but in order to get elected, she had to distance herself from the AIP and infiltrate the Republican Party, because they’re the only ones who can ever actually get voted into office. But don’t worry boys and girls, her heart is still with us, and her sympathies are with the agenda of the Alaskan Independence Party, namely, independence."

POPSPetreaus is No Fool - He'd Talk to His Enemies Not surprisingly Petreaus, who understands insurgency and the vicissitudes of modern warfare possibly better than anyone in this country, would talk to his enemies. As he says, he has done so. I wonder who he thinks will win the election

POPSThe Debate: I Learn Something New Every Day Apparently 95% of us will need to sacrifice by enjoying Barack's tax cut and new health care plan but some will sacrifice by paying more in taxes. Raising taxes to battle a recession - well, you can't say Obama lacks for original ideas. THE OBAMA DOCTRINE: Obama asserts that America has a moral obligation to intervene with force in certain foreign circumstances and cites the Holocaust. His gist - if we could have intervened effectively to prevent the Holocaust we should have. Hmm - many have argued that the rail lines to Auschwitz were within range of US bombers yet Roosevelt did nothing. Both George Bush and George McGovern think Roosevelt erred - $79 BILLION: Obama was wrong about the Iraqi budget surplus at the last debate and he is still wrong.

POPS Bailout Vote Fails In the House Yes, Clinton's surpluses gave way to Bush deficits (due largely, it's worth noting, to the 2001 recession that was in place when Clinton left office). And yes, the Bush administration (and a complacent GOP Congressional majority) presided over a lamentable and inexcusable bloating of the federal government. But the idea that this was a significant contributing factor to the mortgage/credit crisis strains the limits of creative causality. Even so, Pelosi's partisan rant - ill-timed, illogical, and irrelevant as it was - doesn't seem like a particularly good reason for intended Yeas to tank the bill. Update: A full transcript of Pelosi's speech (which was significantly longer than the clip in the video) is available in the extended entry.

POPSComcast: "The Patriot Act" Mandates We Need Your SSN? (cont.) As you can see in the transcript I attached, she referred me to their legal department. I actually asked for the phone number five to ten seconds before she closed the chat. But when I viewed the chat transcript it says the chat was closed before I asked. That is a neat trick. Can what she told me actually be true? …I don’t believe requires me to provide my SSN just to get Internet service. I think the Comcast rep somehow thinks that Comcast falls under the "Know Your Customer" clause of the Patriot Act. As far as I understand it, that only applies to financial companies or financial intermediaries, neither of which I believe Comcast qualifies as.

POPSFannie Mae CEO to Democrats: You Are Our 'Family' and 'Conscience'
Transcript of CEO Mudd addressing the Democrats It is true that Fannie Mae has lent more money to more minorities and more underserved individuals than any single company in history. We will work hard inside our company to resolve the serious matters before us to put our house in order and to forge a new future. And all the while you will see Fannie Mae reaching out and listening to the caucus. Over a century of endeavor you have earned the reputation as the conscience of Congress. In many ways I want to tell you today you are also the conscience of Fannie Mae. Keeping us on course to serve those who need serving the most. Regulatory Reform Act of 2005 Sen. John McCain foresaw the impending Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac Mortgage Crisis more than two years before it happened, and co-sponsored legislation that would have required greater oversight of the mortgage lending entities. http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/54CCDE0C-915F-48E9-985C-51D9390F96D7/

POPSDid Obama Steal His 'Lip Stick on a Pig' Speech from a Political Cartoon? You can see for yourself that the entire segment before his "pig" quip matches the Toles cartoon exactly. The folks at FreeRepublic have found an interesting... uh, shall we say coincidence... concerning Barack Obama's widely panned September 9 comments made at a rally in Virginia where he seemed to be saying that Governor Palin was a "pig" by referencing the "lipstick" quote from her acceptance speech at the GOP convention. So, now we have a few points to ponder. Will the Obama campaign admit that this whole bit was lifted from Tom Toles? And are we to understand that the Obama campaign is now being programmed by cartoons? See ya in the funny papers, Barack. Be sure and Visit my Home blog Publius' Forum. It's what's happening NOW!

POPSMore of ABC's creative editing Way too much to clip, but it is amazing how much they cut out. They even went so far as to edit her out in mid sentence in order to get the response they wanted.

POPSABC's creative editing Without any major mistakes by Palin the media is reduced to using creative editing to try and make her look bad. It's like they have gone to the Michael Moore school of reporting.

POPSWhy Obama Really Voted For Infanticide Andrew C. McCarthy 
SENATOR O’MALLEY: First of all, there is established, under this legislation, that a child born under such circumstances would receive all reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice, and that’s as defined, of course, by the … practice of medicine in the community where this would occur. It also requires, in two instances, that … an attending physician be brought in to assist and advise with respect to the issue of viability and, in particular, where … there’s a suspicion on behalf of the physician that the child … may be … the attending physician would make that determination as to whether that would be the case…. The other one is where the child is actually born alive … in which case, then, the physician would call as soon as practically possible for a second physician to come in and determine the viability. pdf file available at website: http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NzRhZTgzNmRlZWE0MTA1YTM4NWMxN2UxMjA5YjBkZTE=&w=MQ==

POPSFred Thompson Speaks on Service to Our Country She is from a small town, with small town values, but that's not good enough for those folks who are attacking her and her family. Some Washington pundits and media big shots are in a frenzy over the selection of a woman who has actually governed rather than just talked a good game on the Sunday talk shows and hit the Washington cocktail circuit. Well, give me a tough Alaskan governor who has taken on the political establishment in the largest state in the union -- and won -- over the beltway business-as-usual crowd any day of the week. Let's be clear ... the selection of Gov. Palin has the other side and their friends in the media in a state of panic. She is a courageous, successful, reformer, who is not afraid to take on the establishment. Sound like anyone else we know? She has run a municipality and she has run a state. http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/09/02/thompson.transcript/index.html Excerpt of Fred Thompson below:

POPSNYPD audio clip: 9/11 "remote control plane", Truck with Airplane Mural Detained This NYPD scanner audio from 9/11 reports a remarkable incident that news has never covered, that they stopped a truck that day that had a mural of a plane diving into New York City , as well as "remote controlled plane" clearly mentioned in the audio. (See audio clip link at bottom above). Also detained earlier were the "dancing Israeli" art students who were high-fiving each other during the tragedy, even later admitted their Mossad connections and that they were sent to "record the incident" (i.e. foreknowledge). Even Democracy Now here discussed that documented incident. The full article, and the source it links to is worth consideration. The source linked also looks in depth into the transcript of this scanner, and whether the audio is authentic, etc. 911 was good for Israel --former PM Benjamin Netanyahu, Likud Party, friend of Larry Silverstein (WTC lease-h
