POPSGOP Sen. Ted Stevens Losesby

Now they won't have to kick him out. Bonus, Sarah Palin's hopes that she gets to appoint Steven's successor goes down a series of tubes. Still, what does this say about the average Alaskan? Stevens is a convicted felon. It shouldn't even have been close. Republicans are so freakin' crazy up there that they'd rather re-elected a prison-bound criminal than a Democrat. Now those are partisan blinders.

POPSSenate Leadership Forgives Liebermanby
Wisco Yesterday 1:43 PM

"It's a resolution of reconciliation and not retribution...I appreciate it," Joementum is reported as saying. For those of you keeping track of these sorts of things, the Democratic congressional leadership has established that nothing you do, no matter how shitty and disloyal, will get you kicked out of the party. From the same leadership who established the principle that there's no such thing as an impeachable offense, this shouldn't come as a surprise. Seems bass-ackward to me, though -- he loses the seat where he was doing good work and keeps the position where he can do the most harm. This stands a good chance of biting us all in the ass down the road.

POPSDeaf Jam Determined to bring the deaf and hard-of hearing community into the music world, D-PAN has further partnered with the University of Michigan's College of Engineering. The university is championing ways to apply new wireless technology that will aid the deaf and hard-of-hearing community in a live concert setting, and augment their capacity to "feel" the music. Forbes has his eyes on the hearing-centric music festivals. "I would love to see myself and other deaf artists going out performing on stage. Like at Lollapalooza. I think people would think it's cool to see deaf artists signing."

POPSRita Rudner Quotes Neurotics build castles in the air, psychotics live in them. My mother cleans them. Rita Rudner Some people think having large breasts makes a woman stupid. Actually, it's quite the opposite: a woman having large breasts makes men stupid. Rita Rudner Some women hold up dresses that are so ugly and they always say the same thing: 'This looks much better on.' On what? On fire? Rita Rudner Someday I want to be rich. Some people get so rich they lose all respect for humanity. That's how rich I want to be. Rita Rudner The time you spend grieving over a man should never exceed the amount of time you actually spent with him. Rita Rudner The word 'aerobics' came about when the gym instructors got together and said: If we're going to charge $10 an hour, we can't call it Jumping up and down. Rita Rudner They usually have two tellers in my local bank, except when it's very busy, when they have one. Rita Rudner To attract men, I wear a perfume called "New Car Interior."

POPSDetroit Automakers a Relic of the Past No one in the private sector is willing to pony up a dime for this business plan. GM stock is below its 1946 price, and one investment house has priced it at zero. The Detroit Three are taking advantage of the passage of the $700 billion financial bailout to argue that they, too, need government money to go on. But as Megan McArdle of The Atlantic argues, the finance firms are different. If credit coagulates, everyone suffers, while if the Detroit Three go bankrupt, their shareholders lose their stake, employee and retiree pay and benefits are cut, and real estate values go down in areas where the companies and their suppliers operate -- but life for most of us goes on. McArdle further argues that the capital invested in keeping the hulk of the Detroit Three operating pretty much as they are, unprofitably, will not be available to those whose startups could morph into the Microsofts and FedExes of the future.

POPSInstead of a Bailout How about a Buyout? Another example of why "GIVE ME'S" never work out. Take for example the current problems facing the big three auto companies. Union negotiated contracts are taking and ever increasing portion of company profits to maintain. Giving benefits to those who are no longer producing or contributing to the profit making potential of the company is leaching resources from the parent. A large portion of society taking from the public watering hole is depleting the supply faster than those who are contributing can replace it. In the end failure is inevitable. All this BAILOUT business is BAD BUSINESS, and will only delay the inevitable. Considering there are market solutions to market problems I would certainly support using those options instead of looking for another hand out. What say you?
