POPSSarah sad statement about 'Merika--Matt Taibbi Sarah Palin is a symbol of everything that is wrong with the modern United States. As a representative of our political system, she's a new low in reptilian villainy, the ultimate cynical masterwork of puppeteers like Karl Rove. But more than that, she is a horrifying symbol of how little we ask for in return for the total surrender of our political power. Not only is Sarah Palin a fraud, she's the tawdriest, most half-assed fraud imaginable, 20 floors below the lowest common denominator, a character too dumb even for daytime TV -and this country is going to eat her up, cheering her every step of the way. All because most Americans no longer have the energy to do anything but lie back and allow ourselves to be jacked off by the calculating thieves who run this grasping consumer paradise we call a nation.

POPSRandom Crap McCain continues to reinforce the image of the old man yelling at the kids to get off his lawn. Or as Jon Stewart phrases it, "Old man yells at clouds".

Once a seminary student, then an officer in Vietnam, and finally working for the nation's highest intelligence organization, he was ordered to compile all the records of our war in Vietnam into a readable history. Ellsberg got them published by The New York Times, instead of keeping them secret. Otherwise known as the Pentagon Papers, these records showed how America deceived its own citizens and fostered a war in that far Southeast Asian country, of which we are still feeling the effects today. President Richard Nixon, to try to discredit Daniel Ellsberg, set up the "plumbers" spies who ransacked Ellsberg's psychiatrist office. Tricky Dick then used these same plumbers to tap the Democratic Headquarters in the Watergate office buildings. Other former CIA agents, like Phillip Agee and John Stockwell, told their stories of intrigue and American meddling in the affairs of other countries. All had a religious background and a penchant for telling the

POPSIs McCain's skin cancer under the left eye back? Assuming McCain actually shows up to the debate Friday night, Jim Lehrer needs to ask him to release his medical records. If a 72-year-old cancer patient with 4 previous bouts of melanoma (and over 1,000 pages of medical records over the last 8 years alone) wants to be elected president, I think it's of national security interest to know how likely he is to survive all four years of his term.

POPSEver Make Healthy Soda? Kimberly has really gotten into making her own lacto-fermented sodas. I know that might sound kinda weird, but they are really tasty AND good for you. She has made blackberry, peach, strawberry and even blueberry soda. Kimberly basically makes soda out of any fruit she gets her hands on. That's not such a bad thing for us, since we get to drink it. In our most photo rich issue we have ever come out with, Kimberly shows us the art of making your own Blueberry Soda. Have any frozen blueberries or other fruit? Give it a try.... http://www.learningherbs.com/news_issue_20.html
