POPS"Only through direct contact with the destitute" The heartlessness of Reagan theory implanted in Clinton law leaves us with a more brutal society, and a need to cry out "unceasingly for ... the rights of the worthy and the unworthy poor" - excellent writing from Catholic Workers

POPSStorm Trpoopers at the RNC More details are being slowly uncovered about the preemptive actions and the "New Police Mandate". Blackwater Mercenaries show up more and more domestically as well. Sort of like the " Minute Men" in Sinclair Lewi's Book about the rise in American fascism. Written long ago.

POPSABC Reporter Arrested in Denver Taking Pictures Arrested for taking pictures in a public space of public officials. It's just like the spy novels I read as a teen, except now this sort of thing occurs in the US instead of the Soviet Union. Basically the law these days is "Whatever the hell I say it is" if you are a police officer. If this had only been a single isolated incident, I wouldn't be so hot about this issue, but it's happening more and more every day. I read at least 1 article a week about the police abusing their power when it comes to photographers. So now I have to ask myself what I as a citizen should do. I know that patriotically I should never stand for abuse of power, but realistically I can't imagine how to even stand against this level of national fascism.

POPSPlan to Kill Current Internet by 2012, Enter Internet 2 It's documented, it's true, free and open internet will be killed. This is consistent with what Lieberman has been calling for on a small and temporary scale to censor. This will transform the open internet into the MSM internet, controlling the medium entirely. It is all about CONTROL on a global scale in an Orwellian mode of Newspeak.

POPSNader calls U. S. "corporate fascism"
"We used to be able to challenge corporate influence in Washington, but they have so much power now that we can't. The corporations are laughing at us. They're daring us to try to take away their power," said Nader. The choice between a Democrat and a Republican is to Nader a "choice between horrible and terrible." He warned against voting for a candidate because they're not as bad as the other. "If you have a low expectation level of politicians, then they're going to oblige you," said Nader. Nader warned against continued complacency. "What's wrong with us? Are we the biggest suckers? Are we super-suckers?" He exhorted his audience at the Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian-Universalists to find their "constructive anger." He doesn't think it's too late to turn things around, but it will require, "people to break from corporate thinking." Nader called on Americans to reach out to each other, get active and organized, and to make demands for what they need and want. Nader cal

POPSAmerica: Freedom to Fascism - video THIS IS A MUST SEE! IT IS NOT PARTISAN. Please understand what happened in 1913 and why it affect us today. This video is almost two hours long. The first half starts out with a skeptical look at the US tax code, an amazing voyage through legal challenges and obstruction. But don't give up. Where it goes is a place where we should ALL unite. AGAINST Corporate Totalitarianism. I have read a lot on this, clipped and commented on it, but this video is remarkable. Made by a hollywood producer.

POPSMy Corporate Fascist Nightmare "There is another ominous sign in the rise of corporate fascism worldwide: "civil liberties are now systematically under attack. For instance police forces in free societies, in return for being allowed to use their new toys of torture such as a Taser (1), have yielded power to private security guards at our airports, bus stations, workplaces and financial institutions. These private, armed guard companies operate beyond the control and oversight of any legislation or the "rule of law" and it appears, have only contempt for "due process" and the principles of habeas corpus or the presumption of innocence in their daily dealings with the public at large" "Benito Mussolini who coined a phrase that describes the term very well: "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power.""
