POPSObama Is A Phony And A Socialist! 
his adviser Professor Cornell West, who calls himself a "progressive socialist" and is a close associate and admirer of tyrant Hugo Chavez; his "moral compass" and campaign adviser, Father Michael "hate whitey" Pfleger; adviser Robert Malley who resigned after it was reporting he was meeting with the terrorist group Hamas; and fundraiser Jodie Evans, another admirer of Chavez, who asked, "Why is being a communist anti-American?" Sen. Obama was greatly influenced by radical community organizer, Saul Alinsky, for whom "change" met radical socialism and the redistribution of wealth, and who preached the end justifies the means and ethics shouldn't get in the way of effective community organization. Obama early on went for Marxist professors when in college and even before that one of his mentors was a communist poet and journalist, Frank Marshall Davis. Remember if Obama gets the White House he will have a rubber-stamping Congress headed by Sen. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. With a veto

POPS"The Next Tip Is To Be Absolutely Ruthless,"Says Director of Camp Obama "Listening, listening, listening. Listening is the No. 1 tool," she says. They hold a mock Iowa caucus in which campers learn to try to lure other candidates' supporters to Obama during re-alignment periods. Building alliances Just about all the candidates' campaigns do some version of this volunteer training but others don't have the candidates' own backgrounds to draw on in mapping out the training regimen. Alinsky had been dead for a decade when Obama came to organize in Chicago in the '80s, but his disciples were here ready to train him as Woodards is ready to train the volunteers.

POPSFalun Gong Targeted Ahead Of Beijing Olympics authorities have instead been using the Olympics as a pretext to escalate persecutions of religious and political dissidents. Chinese authorities fear that Falun Gong, along with Tibetans, Uighurs, and other dissidents, may use the international media presence during the games to draw attention to their causes. "It is now imperative that the international community leverage real pressure and stop these deplorable actions, lest the legacy of the 2008 Olympics be hundreds of Beijing residents languishing in labor camps," Zhang said. The apparent animosity towards Falun Gong on the part of the Beijing Olympics organizer is hardly new. In 2004, the head of the Beijing Olympics Organizing Committee, Liu Qi, was found liable in a U.S. federal court for his role in the torture of Falun Gong practitioners while he was serving as mayor of Beijing.

POPSAnti-Obama Movie On The Way: Citizens United One prominent Citizens United movie is “Celsius 41.11,” which says it tells the “truth behind the lies” of the Michael Moore movie “Fahrenheit 9/11.” Other Citizens United movies are critical of the United Nations, illegal immigration, and the American Civil Liberties Union, while one movie promotes Newt Gingrich and his ideas. The conservative group is also looking to the U.S. Supreme Court for help in advertising the anti-Hillary movie. It is opposing a federal regulation, under the McCain-Feingold Act, requiring that a disclaimer that identifies the group be placed at the end of television ads promoting the movie and criticizing Mrs. Clinton. It is also arguing that it should not have to disclose how much it spent to produce the movie and the ads, nor who contributed to it. The Supreme Court is scheduled to decide next week whether it will hear the case.

POPSDems stand with Freddy and Fannie during housing scandel IT appears there is not a shady deal Obama's party does not like. They seem to have their fingers in everything that is bad for America, and by inference good for themselves. I guess lining one's own pocket is the goal of government office holders and leading the pack is the Pelosi, Schumer white house. Obama is not stain free in this one either for apparently he was cozy with ACORN in Chicago. I do not know if it is just me but does it seem like all of Obama's major associations are implicated in some sort of nefarious activity? So much for change. Seems like business as usual to this old bird.

POPSThe Illustrated Results of Obama's "Community Organizing" "Obama's Katrina," explaining that if Obama is running on his record as a community activist and advocate, it's a pretty big deal a housing project he had his hand in is an almost-unlivable slum... Perhaps Obama had good intentions here. Trouble is, he has a decidedly thin resume, and one of the biggest bullet points on it reads Miserable Failure. The poor people living here have gotten the shaft from Obama and his developer buddies. And the mainstream media couldn't care less.

POPSBarack Obama, Organization Man But most people agree his two greatest hits were the job-placement center and the asbestos cleanup. Now, there’s nothing wrong with that, but it’s not the kind of stuff that would normally be a big part of one’s argument to become president. In his book, he wrote that when he went to Chicago, he couldn’t quite explain to his friends what community organizers did. Obama began to show what is perhaps his greatest gift: his ability to convince people to believe that it is possible to change things. Working in a part of Chicago beset by a culture of dysfunction, his agenda for change was strikingly conventional. More summer jobs. More city spending on this. More spending on that. In Chicago, Obama learned to organize. But when you ask what he was organizing for, you come up with the same-old, same-old stuff. In Chicago, Obama’s talent was for convincing people to believe in change, not in actually changing things.

POPSWell, duh!
The question was specifically focused on a military response, but Obama didn’t talk about the military, or any use of force at all. “Well, first thing we’d have to do is make sure that we’ve got an effective emergency response, something that this administration failed to do when we had a hurricane in New Orleans,” Obama said. “And I think that we have to review how we operate in the event of not only a natural disaster, but also a terrorist attack.” “The second thing,” Obama continued, “is to make sure that we’ve got good intelligence, A, to find out that we don’t have other threats and attacks potentially out there; and B, to find out do we have any intelligence on who might have carried it out so that we can take potentially some action to dismantle that network.” The reference to “some action” might be interpreted as an endorsement of the use of force, but in the rest of his response, Obama softened even that notion. “But what we can’t do is then alienate the world community

POPSObama's First General Election Ad At one minute, this ad's a little longer than normal, which demonstrates that Obama's got money to burn. This ad is basically Obama answering both the "elitist" and "unpatriotic" charges at once.

POPSSometimes Unrelated Events Tell A Coherent Story We don't need people like either Jeremiah Wright or Barack Obama to take us backward. People on the far left like to flatter themselves that they are for the poor and the downtrodden. But what is most likely to lift people out of poverty-- telling them that the world has done them wrong or promoting the work ethic. Will they have the skills of science, technology or medicine? Or will they have only the resentments that have been whipped up by the likes of Jeremiah Wright or the sense of entitlement from the government that has been Barack Obama's stock in trade?

POPSObama And Alinskyism
The Los Angeles Times, persuaded a Democrat-appointed judge in California to open the sealed divorce records of Obama's Republican opponent to a press fishing expedition. The resulting sex scandal cleared... With a $10 million campaign war chest from contributors, and with no Republican opponent who could garner much support, Obama had an open road to become the next U.S. Senator from Illinois. In April 2007, Obama addressed the National Action Network, a civil rights group founded by Al Sharpton. In 2007, then-presidential candidate Obama named Robert Malley, the Middle East and North Africa Program Director for the International Crisis Group, as a foreign policy advisor to his (Obama's) campaign. In March 2008, Al Sharpton, a strong supporter of Obama's presidential candidacy, stated that he spoke to Obama on a regular basis -- "two or three times a week." Sharpton also said that he had told Obama four months earlier, "I won't either endorse you or not endorse you.

POPSBHB open foot insert mouth? He didn't mis-speak. He just forgot which crowd he was speaking to. There seem to be two on the left. One, the same elitest snobs who actually believe such stuff. Two, the regular democrats who also believe in the second amendment and the freedom to worship as constitutional rights.

POPSDrip,Drip,Drip,...To The N.Amer.Union .....--<< "an emerging "North American Community," which is what conference organizer Robert Pastor, a former Carter Administration official, prefers to call it. One of Pastor's students at AU suggests that he even favors a North American Parliament. Pastor, though a Democrat, succeeded in persuading Texas Republican Senator John Cornyn to introduce a "North American Investment Fund" bill to send more U.S. tax dollars to Mexico. Both political parties are seen favoring the process of bringing the three countries together into an entity like the European Union that now governs Europe and supersedes the Sovereignty of member governments.

POPSRowdy Redneck Games Upset TX Ranch Neighbors "Ugly butt-crack contest" and the "matress drunk chunk"? Just say "No" to crack! The next "event" as posted on their website is the annual Howl-O-Ween Bash...location undisclosed at present time. Not my cup-o-tea. They are making a fortune with these games and are never at a loss for paying participants. The noise and traffic are just too much for the Ranch neighbors. I didn't realize sound carried so far on a hundred acre Ranch.

POPSA Virtual Business Card, Brilliant My next post will definitely be my virtual business card. I already am using my Gmail signature as a sort of "virtual" business card where I list all my social networking links and profiles. Now mine will not be nearly as impressive as Christopher S. Penn's VBC. Hah, I am already chopping it down to an acronym. I bet we will see much more formal virtual business cards and resumes. LinkedIn is a sort of virtual business card, but it doesn't allow for us social media freaks to list all of our websites. Who else will create a VBC?

POPSJob Posting From the Furture: Wanted - Online Community Organizer Remember when being a "webmaster" was an awesome job and the candidates were few and far between? Feh, those days are over. Web gurus are everywhere and more and more appear on the job market driving down what was once a high-paying job. Might be worth investigating Seth's "Jobs of the Future" instead!
