POPSBush family fortune partly built on Nazi connections And Grampa Prescott Bush subsidized a coup attempt designed to bring fascism to America. So let's not have this talk of "appeasement" of the Nazis. The Bush family may have more direct historical Nazi connection than any other American political family.

POPSHas sexism doomed Clinton? People are right to decry boorish anti-Clinton comments, offensive jokes, and the bilge, bile, and billings-gate of the talk-radio blowhards, as well as occasional over-the-top utterances from cable commentators. But let's not mistake the Bruegelian sideshow for the political mainstream. Even allowing for all that stupidity, the notion that sexism is primarily to blame for Clinton's woes doesn't pass logical muster.

POPSBiden: Bush Knesset comment "bullsh*t" "He’s the guy who’s weakened us. He’s the guy that’s increased the number of terrorists in the world. " Gates and Rice call for dialog with Iran; Bush likens Dems to appeasers of the Nazis for advocating the same thing. It is bullsh*t.

POPSCrouching in a corner, covered with a sheet for hours on end Most evidence against so-called "20th hijacker" comes from torture-induced statements. He appears to have lost his mind at the hands of his torturers; no case against him has ever been made; his internment continues indefinitely. It's the Spanish inquisition, by medieval American government. We'll never know if he's guilty or not, just that he was hurt badly enough to confess before he became too crushed to face trial. This is as completely criminal as 9/11 itself.

POPS"Forget a two-state solution" Palestinians must have right of return and Jewish presence in occupied territories grows 3X faster than Israel itself. The mix is here to stay. Only a single, democratic, secular, multi-cultural state can protect the rights of all.

POPSTell the truth about race in America "to talk today requires a different and perhaps deeper courage when confronted with so many mirages of equality. It is tempting to be confused by these oases of opportunity and forget the desert of inequality through which most people are still struggling." "The demand for justice is divisive and culturally closed: it divides those who seek justice from the unjust. It rejects a culture that promotes individual or corporate profit at any cost." "Too many people want to take the short cut. They want African-Americans to reconcile themselves to a government, which does not represent them, actively disenfranchises them, destroys their homes (and whole cities if need be), imprisons their children and ships the rest off to war, and never ask why or who is responsible. This is the reconciliation „on the cheap“ -- cheap for white and corporate America that is." - Brother Bede Vincent

POPSJournalist released from Gitmo in serious condition Held for 6.5 years, tortured, no charges or trial, now seriously ill. Arrested while traveling thru Pakistan to an assignment for Al Jazeera. "I'm very sad because of the condition of our brothers who remain." Flown home in chains, faces no charges there. "True peace," he says, "does not come through military force ... Justice comes from lifting oppression ..." Unbelievable. Outrageous. Who will be called to account for this crime?

POPSWhy HRC must not be VP "Hillary as a war drum thumper, marching shoulder to shoulder with John McCain, shouting that she’s the candidate of the white people."
