POPSThe Republican Party Must Change, and the Nation Too Republicans have put Party and Power over Principles they used to stand for, namely "individual liberty" and "limited government". The lone voice once mocked by the GOP elite RINOs (and the CFR primary Candidates) now gives a lesson on what's wrong with republicans and the nation's government. (Actually, it was Republicans, under Lincoln, that first expanded and centralized the power of the federal government and started the same unjust wars as engaged in now, invading and burning the Southern states and cities! Overthrowing the Constitution has been their forte'. Democrats used to be "Dixie-crats" until they changed too). Neither does he spare Obama: Since the new alignment of political power offers no real change, we will remain on the same track without even a pretense of slowing the growth of government. With the new administration we can expect things to go from bad to worse.

POPSJust when the future is looking bright... Fortunately, it looks like legal action will prevent Prop 8 from being enacted. There is something fundamentally wrong on the majority voting on the rights of a minority, especially when partisan politicians have tried to abrogate the rights of the court.

POPSIs Proposition 8 Behind the 8 Ball? It should be!
When I read the questions on my Fl. ballot, I thought, “Why is Prop 8 there in all it's intolerance?” This election should be about issues not the same old worn out divisions, propagandized by the religious right for far too long. The GUNS, GAYS AND GOD mantra Karl Rove and his like, peddled, until the United States did not resemble anything UNITED, more like The Divided States of Amer. How naive of me, believing their divisive plan didn’t work and was therefore, over. With Separation of church & state a survivor. But here it was a religious question written into a civil ballot. Then, I thought, PROP 8 WILL SURELY BE DEFEATED... Wrong again. What will it take to keep religion out of the lives of people who do not wish to buy into it? What will it take to keep the prying eyes of the law out of our sexual orientation? It probably will never end but when the blind faith of religion wishes to erase that separation, we who are in possession of common sense must always fight back.

POPSWhat's wrong with Alaska's election? Despite a record-setting early vote throng, the overall participation supposedly decreased by 11% - the lowest participation by Alaskans in any presidential race ever! How could that be? Further, polls turned out way wrong, only here. Pre election polls had both Mark Begich-D and Ethan Berkowitz-D solidly beating incumbents Senator Ted Stevens and Congressman Don Young by at least 6-10 points. Stevens is currently ahead by 3,353 votes with 49,000 ballots left to count. Berkowitz, however, is behind by 16,887 votes; a 51-43 margin.
