POPSBut maybe we're learning... It seems like a group of people still long to be led by the ignorant... but those amongst us who don't know what they don't know: the scariest of all. The world is a complicated place... we face real problems that aren't solved by chanting "free market" ... but some still cling to the belief that intellectualism is the real problem.

POPSThe Islamist Role in the 2008 Canadian Elections Hashmi runs an Islamic school for girls. Hashmi wears a full niqab (face covering) and encourages young girls to emulate her. She is known for promoting a very conservative Islamic ideology that is based on Wahhabism. She, like other Islamists is in favor of Sharia in Canada. The results of the Canadian election were an eye-opener because all Muslim candidates from all parties lost, with the exception of Yasmin Ratansi, who for some time has been trying to distance herself from her Muslim identity Most ordinary Canadians, well-meaning and decent folks, are fed up with demands for unreasonable accommodation and are no longer willing to put up with politics disguised as religion in the public sphere. Of course, the usual suspects are already screaming Islamophobia - again. There is no rampant Islamophobia in Canada - only an attempt at gradual Islamization.

POPSYou Unemployed Blue-Collar Workers Can Freeze In The Dark, Too Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. This ought to be a big hit with coal miners. Or, for that matter, anybody else since we currently produce half of our electricity with coal. But hey, candlelight is so romantic. What are we talking about? The ObaMarx’s energy “plan”, that’s what. The plan under which he intends to put the coal business out of business . . . But why don’t we let him speak for himself?: What I’ve said is that we would put a cap and trade system in place that is as aggressive, if not more aggressive, than anybody else’s out there. So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it’s just that it will bankrupt them because they’re going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted. http://www.nicedoggie.net/2008/?p=2850

POPS The Message Of Obama's Socialist Realism Art And Senator Obama’s supporters insist that their dear leader has nothing to do with socialist/Marxist leanings, thoughts, beliefs? Next time they tell you that, just point out the Fairey “Hope” button they wear on their lapel, or the one they are sporting as a sticker on their car. The similarities between the Soviet, Cuban, Chinese Communist and Barack Obama propaganda posters are not coincidental. Barack Obama is a collectivist, a far-Left socialist who has attracted and has the support of radical groups, including the Communist Party Illinois, Socialist Party USA, The Center for Constitutional Rights and The Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism. The Obama “Progress” poster was designed by leftwing (surprise!) artist Shepard Fairey. A similar poster by Fairey, with the word “change” on it is sold by Barack Obama’s online campaign store.

POPSAmerica - Land of the Ignorant Just when you think you've reached the bottom of the gene pool, you come across something like this. Quite frankly, I couldn't even make it through the entire article because it was so incoherent. This is a rag from Folsom, Ca. Perhaps someone can write and let me know what the hell is with Folsom. Never been there and if this is indicative of the town I thank my lucky stars that I've never been to their fair city. What an idiotic article. I don't even know where to start on the scope of the sheer idiocy of this piece. Someone please tell me that this is an apparition.

POPSThe Triumph of Ignorance
More: "Besides fundamentalist religion, perhaps the most potent reason why intellectuals struggle in elections is that intellectualism has been equated with subversion. The brief flirtation of some thinkers with communism a long time ago has been used to create an impression in the public mind that all intellectuals are communists. Almost every day men like Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly rage against the "liberal elites" destroying America. The spectre of pointy-headed alien subversives was crucial to the election of Reagan and Bush. A genuine intellectual elite - like the neocons (some of them former communists) surrounding Bush - has managed to pitch the political conflict as a battle between ordinary Americans and an over-educated pinko establishment. Any attempt to challenge the ideas of the rightwing elite has been successfully branded as elitism. Obama has a good deal to offer America, but none of this will come to an end if he wins. Until the great failures of the US edu

POPSPundit: Joe the Plumber It was bound to happen. Forget the historians. Ignore the facts. Drink a mug of gullibility and join the McCain/Palin steam locomotive to 1952. Relive the drama of Joe McCarthy as he single handedly takes on the communist menace. Thrill to the real patriots as they rid the country of the Red Devils. The sad part is that there are enough yahoos around to keep this absurdity going.

POPSKarl Marx Obama sez Take the Day off Work That's really funny. The reason this communist has such huge crowds, is most of his supporters do not work. And bosses, if any of your employees take the day off, dock them a day's pay. After all - they are going to tax you out of business then redistribute your wealth to the welfare blacks. Better yet, get a jump on them. Fire them now.

POPSPillar of Unbelief - Marx Monism: the idea that everything is one and that common sense's distinction between matter and spirit is illusory. Pantheism: the notion that the distinction between Creator and creature, the distinctively Jewish idea, is false. For Hegel, the world is made into an aspect of God (Hegel was a pantheist); for Marx, God is reduced to the world (Marx was an atheist). Historicism: the idea that everything changes, even truth; that there is nothing above history to judge it; and that therefore what is true in one era becomes false in another, or vice versa. Dialectic: the idea that history moves only by conflicts between opposing forces, a "thesis" vs. an "antithesis" evolving a "higher synthesis." Necessitarianism, or fatalism: the idea that the dialectic and its outcome are inevitable and necessary, not free. Statism: the idea that since there is no eternal, trans-historical truth or law, the state is supreme and uncriticizable. Militarism: (read article)

POPSJohn McCain met with Chilean Dictator with no preconditions At the time of the meeting, in the late afternoon of December 30, the U.S. Justice Department was seeking the extradition of two close Pinochet associates for an act of terrorism in Washington DC, the 1976 assassination of former ambassador to the US and former Foreign Minister Orlando Letelier. The car bombing on Sheridan Circle in the U.S. capital was widely described at the time as the most egregious act of international terrorism perpetrated on U.S. soil by a foreign power.

POPSMcCain Advocates Communism in Debate; Homeowner Bailout Taxpayers to bailout defaulting homeowners? Let's take 300 of that billion and go in and buy those home loan mortgages and negotiate with those people in their homes, 11 million homes or more, so that they can afford to pay the mortgage, stay in their home. Then, he even ADMITS the criticism, how is that fair to responsible homeowners, that have to pay for the bailout of others who did not make their payments as contracted? Now, I know the criticism of this. Well, what about the citizen that stayed in their homes...That paid their mortgage payments? It doesn't help that person in their home if the next door neighbor's house is abandoned. And so we've got to reverse this. We ought to put the homeowners first. McCain advocates communism, which the dictionary defines: a system in which goods are owned in common and are available to all as needed For a Vietnam Vet fighting communism to advocate thi
