POPSCourt Ruling Will Expose Viewing Habits of YouTube Users
The Logging database contains: for each instance a video is watched, the unique “login ID” of the user who watched it, the time when the user started to watch the video, the internet protocol address other devices connected to the internet use to identify the user’s computer (“IP address”), and the identifier for the video. In any event, the court ordered production of not just IP addresses, but also all the associated information in the Logging database. Whatever might be said about 'an IP address without additional information,' the the AOL search history leak fiasco shows that the material viewed by a user alone can be sufficient to identify the user, even with neither a login nor an IP address. The Court's erroneous ruling is a set-back to privacy rights, and will allow Viacom to see what you are watching on YouTube. We urge Viacom to back off this overbroad request and Google to take all steps necessary to challenge this order and protect the rights of its users.

POPSThis Is Just The Beginning "Politically, we’ll expand the great work of our precinct leader program. We’ll make our presence felt at every level of government, where just a few people with our level of enthusiasm can make a world of difference. We’ll keep an eye on Congress and lobby against legislation that threatens us. We’ll identify and support political candidates who champion our great ideas against the empty suits the party establishments offer the public. We will be a permanent presence on the American political landscape. That I promise you. We’re not about to let all this good work die. To the contrary, with your help we’re going to make it grow – by leaps and bounds. This is the most ambitious venture of my political career, and I think it can achieve great things. But I can’t do this alone. I need you to help me. I need your energy, your creativity, your ideas, and your dedication. People frustrated with our political system often wonder what they can do. " There is much work to do!

POPSMust See, Well Worth Watching! WASHINGTON, YOU'RE FIRED! From the mismanagement of Hurricane Katrina rescue efforts and law enforcement abuses to the wrongful imprisonment and torturing of legal enemy combatants and misuse of the FBI and NSA -- nothing is taboo in this disturbing look at the last seven years of fundamentally flawed terror-related spy bills, how they affect you, and what you can do about it. Bills such as the USA PATRIOT Act, the Military Commissions Act, and the John Warner Defense Act have crippled the U.S. Constitution and have weakened the liberties that Americans once thought they could never lose. The loss of Habeas Corpus and Posse Comitatus, coupled with a new definition of “torture” are just the tip of the Orwellian iceberg. If enacted, HR 1955 will for the first time put “thought crime” laws on the books, robbing citizens of their right to freedom of conscience thought.

POPSThe Barney Frank and Ron Paul Bill “The Frank-Paul bill would stop the US Government from taking any further steps on regulations that would require all of the country’s financial institutions to block Internet gambling payments,” said Jeffrey Sandman, Spokesman for SSIGI. “It’s a bold move but a necessary one in light of the warnings from the Treasury and Federal Reserve that they did not know how to write regulations to solve the problems created by UIGEA.” “These regulations are impossible to implement without placing a significant burden on the payments system and financial institutions and, while I do disagree with the underlying objective of the Act, I believe that even those who agree with it ought to be concerned about the regulations’ impact,” said Frank, a Democrat from Massachusetts.

POPS Comprehensive Economic Revitalization Plan Here are a few of the plan's basics: Eliminate Taxes on Social Security Benefits. That money belongs to seniors, not the government. They paid into the system for a lifetime, and they should be free to spend every penny as they see fit. * Pass H.R. 192 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to repeal the 1993 increase in taxes on Social Security benefits. # Eliminate Taxes on Tips.The single parents and working students who earn their income chiefly through tips deserve to keep all of their money. This tax on "estimated income" is unfair and should be ended. * Pass H.R. 3664 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide that tips shall not be subject to income or employment taxes. Reduce Overseas Military Commitments. Our bases and troops should be on our soil. * It's time to stop subsidizing our trading partners in Europe, Japan and South Korea.

POPSForbes Ask Candidates to Respond, One Did The reader comments to this article say a lot as well, and are interesting to read. http://rate.forbes.com/comments/CommentServlet?op=cpage&sourcename=story&StoryURI=2008/03/04/election-economy-paul-oped-cx_rp_0304ronpaul.html Many people will do as I am planning to and write in Ron Paul if necessary, I cannot in good conscience, vote for any other candidate I have seen so far. Ron Paul is my only choice. Still!

POPSRomney-The Best Choice? (For Republicrats) I lived in MA for 20 years as well, and was there throughout Romney's term (up to a year ago). I would NEVER vote for him, EVER! If you are one of the new, moderate, "reprogressive" democrats or a neo republiCON, then perhaps he is your cup of tea, in fact, if this is you, then absolutely, vote Romney, otherwise steer clear and do not be fooled. Look at his record.

POPSObserving Rudy G. Rudolph Giuliani cleverly understands that the best way to appeal to the Republican base is with militarism rather than morality. Says Glenn Greenwald: "Giuliani's talent for expressing prosecutor-like righteous anger towards 'bad people' – as well as his well-honed ability to communicate base-pleasing rhetoric towards Islamic extremists – is underappreciated. I don't think any candidate will be able to compete with his ability to convey a genuine hard-line against Middle Eastern Muslims and that is the issue that – admittedly with some exceptions – dominates the Christian conservative agenda more than gay marriage and abortion (concerns which he can and will minimize by promising to appoint more Antonin Scalias and Sam Alitos to the Supreme Court, something he emphasized... in a highly amicable interview with Sean Hannity).

POPSLibertarian Party Says Yes to "Dr. No" Candidacy!!! Party congratulates Congressman Paul for his success in spreading a message of peace, prosperity and freedom. More at site. This is fantastic news! That is, IF he does not get the republican nomination, and If he accepts the chance to run as LP candidate. (Nothing against Kubby)

POPSThe Wildly Swinging Pendulum Paul also stated, “One of my heros in the way that he acted was Dr. Martin Luther King…and Ghandi as well.” Once again, they attack Dr. Paul and he humbly and kindly highlights peaceful ends to the means. Well, as Ghandi said,first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. Ron Paul is the light in the dark…he is darkhorse candidate of 2007, and he is on track for the being the darkhorse candidate of 2008. I cannot begin to imagine what those neocons would have said in regard to the founding fathers and their "radical" ways toward freedom! And the Boston Tea Party would have been called a terroristic act by same.

POPSGirls and Women Women of Iraq have gradually let go of most of their 20th century gains and privileges in the last 4 years of occupation. Iraq turned from a modern country of educated and working women into a divided land of Islamic and ethnic warlords who compete in canceling women from the social realm........Read more Islamic Sharia law: a constant threat against the rights and freedom of women in the Middle East

POPSAll Together Now Kubby states that if his fellow freedom activists' long-shot bet pays off and Ron Paul becomes the Republican nominee, he will withdraw, ask the party to nominate "None of the Above" at its national convention, and work as a volunteer on Paul's general election campaign. "And I'm urging my fellow Libertarians to approach this in the same way," he says. "But at the same time, I'll continue preparing to give the LP the best presidential campaign I can give it if that doesn't work out." There have been a few questions regarding Dr. Paul's libertarian views, though not as many as some would like you to believe, remember, the two-party majorities are experts when it comes to "spin" and the politics of dividing people...

POPSFOX'S BOOK OF MARTYRS "When one recollects that until the appearance of the Pilgrim's Progress the common people had almost no other reading matter except the Bible and Fox's Book of Martyrs, we can understand the deep impression that this book produced; and how it served to mold the national character. Those who could read for themselves learned the full details of all the atrocities performed on the Protestant reformers; the illiterate could see the rude illustrations of the various instruments of torture, the rack, the gridiron, the boiling oil, and then the holy ones breathing out their souls amid the flames. Take a people just awakening to a new intellectual and religious life; let several generations of them, from childhood to old age, pore over such a book, and its stories become traditions as individual and almost as potent as songs and customs on a nation's life." Douglas Campbell Gives a deeper understanding of history, no matter what one's affiliation may be. Go to site to read.
