POPS The California wild fire scam -- Suppressed techology Why did we refuse it then? Did politics and historical animosity get in the way of saving our land, our animals, and our homes? Why was it not called in for this fire? These are questions that the citizens should be asking their Government representatives.

POPSThis is funny! Good for a chuckle...by
prin1 Yesterday 7:57 AM The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Bush. I've told you already that Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no longer resides here. Don't you understand?" The old man looked at the Marine and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it. " The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow, Sir."

POPSCould Bill Cost Hillary Cabinet Position? At issue are questions about the Clinton Global Initiative and possible conflicts of interest. " t could prove problematic for Obama if the former president continues to seek donations from foreign countries – at the same time his wife is asking them for diplomatic concessions as Secretary of State," Politico reports. "The Clinton Global initiative, which has raised more than $30 billion since 2005, has solicited major donations from a handful of foreign governments, including a $1 billion pledge from Norway in 2007." "The ball is very much in her court," a source told the website.

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.

POPS"Dear newsmedia: your imaginary friends are having an imaginary fight" I can't decide whether I'm more amused or annoyed by how often one sees news articles that say things like "from a highly-placed source who spoke on conditions of anonymity because of a prohibition on talking to reporters". Hello there, what part of "don't talk about it" do you think doesn't apply to you?

POPSHow DID Obama get Change.gov set up so quickly, huh? I've seen a lot of people asking (in tones ranging from concerned to accusing to borderline paranoid) how Obama got Change.gov set up so quickly. I mean, how DID a .gov domain get given to someone non-governmental, huh? Kinda suspicious, don't you think? As a matter of fact, no, I don't think it's suspicious. Change.gov was set up by the General Services Administration as part of their charge to facilitate the transition from the outgoing President to the incoming President-elect. Furthermore, In addition, GSA provides a full suite of services to the outgoing President and former Vice-President as they transition from office. These responsibilities include… (click through to the original for the rest)

POPSPeople Power Can Beat Climate Change Engaging communities involves a lot more than simply asking for sacrifices. A supportive planning system and the guarantee of a stable, premium price for energy sold back to the grid has given people an incentive to join forces and create renewable energy. At a time of economic downturn and rising fuel costs, it is hard to imagine that the advantages of this opportunity to develop sustainable income streams would be lost on the general public. It offers politicians, business and investors the opportunity to unleash an entrepreneurial spirit capable of reaping financial and environmental returns for both the people and the planet.

POPSModesty/Religious War in Jerusalem Mayor Election!!! Jerusalem is one of Israel's poorest cities and one of its most divided: Arab and Jew, religious and secular, rich and poor. Its future is a core issue in any peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians. Dadon said: "I want a city of diversity for all religions, where each religion has its own area." "Are you in favour of fencing people in?" asked Mann. "The ultra-Orthodox are taking over," said Dadon. "They need to be in a different place. They run their lives completely differently."
