POPSTop 10 Firefox Extensions, and More Why isn’t it completely comprehensive? There are a lot of lists out there that honestly aren’t all that great. Some of them are just repeats of what you’ll find at other places, and I don’t want to put you through visiting article after article if they are all essentially the same. 15 more categories in addition to the ones listed in the clip.

POPSFive GREAT Reasons To Vote Against Barack Obama
Let’s think about this one for a moment. FICA, the social security and medicare taxes, are set at 15% of the first $102,000 and then they go away. The employer pays half, unless you happened to be self-employed. In that case, you pay the whole thing. So, if the democrats erase the cap, that is an automatic 15% tax increase on all money earned over $102,000. There will also be the tax increase from allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire. And there will be the tax increase on the “rich”, defined somewhere between $120,000 and 250,000. So, how big will these tax increases actually be? More than 15%, less than 30%? Maybe. Maybe more. Nobody knows because Congress writes the laws. And that means Pelosi and Reid. He has four other terrific and amusing reasons. The courts, the snottiness of the Obamabots, etc. Read it all. 5 Great Reasons To Vote Against Obama ~ by Howie Carr http://www.bostonherald.com/news/columnists/view/2008_11_02_Five_reasons_to_vote_against_Obama/

POPS Obama’s Doublespeak in Denver ~ The Rosette Report He promised to eliminate or streamline wasteful programs, but who decides what that means? One man’s waste is another man’s pork? One man’s tax-picked wallet is another man’s free ride? (The motto of the restaurant Obama chose for his Valentine’s dinner, Table 52, as shown on the dinner-menu page of its web site, is — what else? — “everything tastes better when shared.”) Apparently it is not Obama’s job to read what he signs; that falls to the rest of us. Anyone care to get out the timeclock, start reading, and figure out at what rate Obama would have had to go through it line by line, to fit it into his schedule over the long weekend? More to the point, since Obama’s line-by-line Denver convention promise is clearly down the memory hole, how much work will it take by American taxpayers, who must earn this money dollar-by-dollar, to pay for this $787,000,000,000 extravaganza?

POPSControversy Over Selling Girl Scout Cookies I love Girl Scout cookies. But isn’t the idea behind selling these tasty little treats to raise money for the Girl Scout of America while at the same time teaching the girls how to get involved in the business of raising money? Everyone can agree that selling door to door can be a risky proposition for safety reasons. But should parents be selling for them? I’m torn on this issue. On the one hand the girls are learning responsibility. On the other hand they are being taught how to scam others into doing their work for them. After all, the Girl Scouts of America has gotten these girls to do the selling for them for years. Are we doing these girls a disservice by selling the cookies for them? And, should an employee of one company be allowed to sell another companies products on their time? What’s your opinion?

POPSFortune: Facebook is Dead While the Beacon debacle is mostly something that exists in the minds of journalists and .1 percent of Facebook's users, it's true that Facebook is in trouble. And not just on privacy issues...after a $15 billion valuation of a company with no proven money-making ability, this kind of backlash was inevitable...and with competitors like Open Social popping up, this could sink the company altogether.
