POPSinteresting two minute video on destroying these weapons The headline is quite misleading. The biggest cluster bomb users aren't signing the treaty. The US has used them in every recent war: Yugoslavia in 1999, Afghanistan, and Iraq and has not renounced their continued use. Obama voted for an amendment that would have prevented the use of such weapons against civilians, but if these weapons are used in war, they inevitably will kill civilians. The only sure way to stop killing civilians with cluster bombs is to eliminate them. A Google search for "cluster bombs" on Obama's website came up empty; I didn't find any indication of what Obama intends to do about them. If Bill Clinton were back in office, you can bet he'd find a way to continue to use these God-forsaken devices, even as he convinced everyone of the opposite. We'll see if Obama is a president in the Clinton mold.

POPSThe Stories Behind 11 Famous Web Sites Too much to clip, but if you go to the source you can read about them all, and you can link to them. Of course I embellished, and added Clipmarks to the list. Where would this clip be without Clipmarks?! Oh, and the first thing was just a silly thing I clipped off of B3ta, it was not really supposed to be in this clip, but oh well.

POPSI'm the sheriff, I can do what I want Haidl told jurors he and Carona made an initial list of 86 people — friends, family and contributors to Carona — who should become reserves. In 2001, a state commission decertified 86 reserves because of a lack of training and failure to pass background checks. It was unclear Friday whether that group was the same 86 mentioned in Haidl’s testimony. Haidl had earlier testified that he and Carona wanted to expand the program to 1,000 people, and that they wanted reservists to be mostly professionals who could donate a total of $1 million to Carona’s future campaign coffers

POPSDid The Bush Tax Cuts Only Help The Rich?? It is amazing how many people that fall into the above categories think Bush is screwing them. Now you know the rest of the story. So, when Barack Osama tries to tell me "95% of all Americans will get a tax break", you can see how I really question that. He will let the Bush tax breaks go (bringing rates back to Clinton levels), and then will give me about a $1,000 tax cut. Don't even get me started on the fact that only 60% of Americans pay taxes, thus Obama wants to give MORE money back to people who are not PAYING anything in. Look at those charts above. There is a $7500 difference for the married guy making over 125k a year--bush let him keep 6% more of his income (7500/125k). Looking at the poorest listed, the single making 30k, there is a $3900 difference. Bush let him keep 13% more of his income.

POPSTexas will Execute 10 Men in 30 days This is the worst place of the free world for execution, this is not just the worst place for America," he said of Texas. Before the state revised such laws in 2001, a defendant could be represented by a divorce lawyer with no experience in criminal prosecutions, and judges were not required to instruct juries of alternative punishments such as life in prison without parole, he said. Nine of the 10 to die this month were sentenced before 2001. Mr Halperin claimed "judges are very happy to get rid of these people as quickly as possible." He described a sort of year-end catch-up
