POPSWm. Rivers Pitt asks "Why?"
I don't do anniversaries. It requires keeping track of things, and I don't do that very well. Needless to say, I was unprepared for this momentous occasion, five years into a war that was more theater than national security exercise from the first. Pitt reduces the issues to the essentials in a way that most people who have retained their sanity throughout these five years of wretchedly corrupt, irresponsible and incompetent leadership can understand. At this point, even the serious disagreements boil down to issues of motivation. But motivation for acts of felonious carnage, constitutional usurpation and the willful perversion of the arms of justice and national security into services dedicated to the preservation of a unitary executive by "whatever means" matters little. The acts themselves and their consequences insist on resolution in favor of those oppressed, displaced, killed, maimed and exploited - and serve to utterly discredit any motive and any cheerleader for Bush.

POPSCan I get fries with that idea? Find out more at http://www.zazzle.com/webcarve* and consider signing up as an associate (you get a nice cut for sending folks this way. I will create a special template in a bit, to help viewers create their own versions. OR you can take the "M$M can I get fries with that idea" WITHOUT the graphics and run with it. I'll be putting up a scroll with all shirts using that phrase. Yes, it's a googlebomb. Yes, there' some money in it for me - and for you. And yet, it's still a great idea. You should steal it.

POPSThey aren't Conservatives, they are Authoritarians Which is the point to sociologist Altmeyer's book, who has been researching authoritarianism for thirty years, and can now publish a popular work (for free) because he's about to retire and can't be fired for his temerity.

POPSThe Truth In Pornography The more I think about it, the more I realize that the objection is not to it's existence, but to the existence of some of it's direct and implied messages that contradict conventional (and in my humble opinion, dangerous and destructive) moralisms.

POPSRender Unto Ceaser When people make their faith a reccomendation to the voters, it becomes important to review and consider their statements in light of the faith they claim and consider the implications that arise if we believe they are sincere - and also the implication that arise if we find their professed faith is in conflict with their ambitions.

POPSOh, he bitched THAT one up! You know, there just isn't anything to say about this that doesn't sound like I'm gleefully pointing out the inherent deficits of jock culture and jock mentality. So, I won't.

POPSFeed My Sheep. Please. So, if you choose to be a shepherd, you take on the responsibility for keeping them out of trouble and the karmic debts they have managed to incur on their way to your flock. Still sure you want that job?
