This is a great house with 360degree water views because it is in the middle of the bloody ocean.

POPSSeparatists 'to host Russia bases' Maybe it was a good move to have Palin as a candidate - prevents Alaska from breaking away as the Russian states did. America could give Alaska to the neocons and tell em all to go live there. They could rename the State, Armageddon.

POPS This Bailout Was A Terrible Idea! Here's Why
This lending was a wholesale abandonment of reasonable lending practices in which borrowers with poor credit characteristics got mortgages they were ill-equipped to handle. Talk of Armageddon, however, is ridiculous scare-mongering. If financial institutions cannot make productive loans, a profit opportunity exists for someone else. This might not happen instantly, but it will happen. The costs of the bailout, moreover, are almost certainly being understated. The administration's claim is that many mortgage assets are merely illiquid, not truly worthless, implying taxpayers will recoup much of their $700 billion. The bailout has more problems. The final legislation will probably include numerous side conditions and special dealings that reward Washington lobbyists and their clients. Anticipation of the bailout will engender strategic behavior by Wall Street institutions as they shuffle their assets and position their balance sheets to maximize their take.

POPSALMOST ARMAGEDDON (?) The injection of capital into the market was followed up by calls from Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson to major money market players like Bank of New York Mellon and State Street in Boston informing them that federal money was in the market and they should tell their clients the Feds would be back with a plan to stem the constriction in the credit market. Paulson knew the $105 billion injection was not a real solution. A broader, more radical answer was needed. Hours after Paulson made his round of calls to calm the industry, word leaked out that an added $1 trillion bailout of banks was being readied. Investors cheered. At about 3 p.m., news of the plans was filtering up and down Wall Street, fueling a 700-point advance in the Dow Jones industrial average through 4 p.m. Friday. By that time, Paulson had announced the plan.

POPSOn the Fringe One of many articles examining this far right Christian Dominionist sect that appears to be growing in number as members of Pentecostal churches split off looking for more "active" ways to force Christianity on the country. Their goal is to establish a Christian Theocracy in the US in preparation for the Apocalypse. Organizations such as the Southern Poverty Law Center fear that they may soon move beyond mere talk to armed action.

POPSNew clues on "The Great Dying" The lessons of the Permian-Triassic massacre are "directly applicable to the present," said John Isbell, a geoscientist at the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. He said the world today is in danger of exceeding a CO2 "threshold" that could set off an environmental upheaval as great as the one 251 million years ago.

POPSArmageddon? "Another speaker, Rev. Dudley Rutherford, predicted that if Prop. 8 fails, the God-ordained institution of marriage would be destroyed; the engine of hate crimes legislation would be fueled, ultimately leading to it being illegal to read some sections of the Bible; the floodgates would be open to gay couples suing to force churches to marry them; and the polygamists would be next." Yes, folks we don't have a war against poverty anymore, we have more important things to focus on such as THE GAYS--who are causing the rising divorce rate among heterosexuals!

POPSIsraeli Gay Pride Event the End of the World? Fresh off widespread media ridicule for changing athlete Tyson Gay's name to Tyson Homosexual , right wing nutjob site OneNewsNow warns that a gay pride event in Jerusalem means the end time are nigh. It's weird how often these guys can predict the end of the world, be wrong every time, and still get idiots to listen to them. For some, I guess, "faith" and "willful ignorance" are synonymous.
