POPSFemale Fighters: We Won't Stand for Male Dominance Back in 1998, the fighters say, their now-jailed leader Abdullah Ocalan declared the group "a women's party." It was initially difficult to accept, says Karim, a 42-year-old male member of the PKK. Today, the PKK's ideology revolves around a belief that global crises and injustice are a result of millennia of male-dominated rule. Here, the women run their own assaults and have their own command structure. All tasks are shared, both on and off the battlefield. Discipline is paramount to survival, they say, and weapons are always clean and never out of reach.

POPSgo out to vote this November 2008 Election year, to make your decisions not just based on issues sta I encourage all those within the community, who go out to vote this November 2008 Election year, to make your decisions not just based on issues stances but also on consistent character, virtue and temperament. Look for the candidates that do not make the popular decision, but stand on sound conviction. The networks are once again arguing and play devils' advocate over the petty follies of party loyalty and speculation instead of holding canditates accountable through substantive debate that is backed up by creditable research. Do you hate the bickering nature of politics before you that encourages disrepectfu belittlement with name calling and deceitful half truths to get ahead? I don't! It's time to put away childish things!

POPSA strong condemnation based on voting record "We face a perfect financial storm,” Kucinich warned. “The elements are the deficit spending for the war of 3 to 4 trillion dollars, the trillion and more tax cuts, the war itself and the lack of serious investment in the country. We are being hollowed out. We are going to see more unemployment and more people losing their homes. With $700 billion we could have made a real investment in the country, in jobs, in infrastructure and in homes. Instead, we got robbed.”

POPSThe real Americans It seems her #1 job is to continue the illusion that the ultimate elitist party, the party of CEO and wall street fat cats is really the party of average America disparagingly cast as Joe and Jane six pack, too ignorant and uneducated to notice the phoniness. Ignore the 100000000 bank account, 10 homes and 13 cars, McCain represents the working American. What a crock of sh**!!

POPSConservative attitudes abroad. After watching Channel 4 expose of Cameron's Millions, even their sister/brother political party in Canada appear to be getting on the 'avoiding answering questions' bandwagon. Dispatches reporter Antony Barnett investigates the funding of the Tories under Cameron and examines how the party is using its newfound resources to ensure its leader becomes the next Prime Minister. Barnett examines how funds are being ploughed into marginal seats that hold the key to a Cameron victory and his investigation raises fresh questions about some of the party's largest backers. Barnett also scrutinises David Cameron's promises of "openness and transparency," with the methods the Tory leader is using to attract donations. It just goes on and on and on and on...this selectivity of sleaze.

POPSBailout Creating a Financial Black Hole (cont.)The latest propaganda from the government and the Illuminist think tanks tells us that, treasuries are more secure than gold because they are backed by the US government and gold has a counter party risk by whoever is storing your gold as the counter party. I’ve never heard any stupider comments. The Fed has informed Bank of America to be ready for a one-week universal shutdown of the banking system, including access to checking accounts, savings accounts and credit cards. This is why you need $5,000 in small bills in your safe at home and small denomination gold and silver coins.

POPSIn MN, It's Still the Al Franken Decade The poll isn't without controversy, however. A SurveyUSA poll finds almost the opposite, with Coleman leading Franken by 10. Still, there's something hinky about SUSA's polling in Minnesota. It's been in wild disagreement with most other polls. Coleman points to SUSA's numbers, but I doubt that -- in his little heart of hearts -- he finds much comfort in them. "DFL" is Democratic-Farmer-Labor party, BTW. The official name of the state Democratic party.

POPSWho is Left? "This touches directly on the question of what, beyond the platitudes of unity, hope, and change, Obama himself believes in. His voting record is one indication. Another is his intellectual evolution."
