POPSMcCain and Obama Go to Church, as US Gov't Goes to Hell
Not just any church of course, but a Mega-Church. 1. Obama uses Rick Warren as an endorsement to escape his association in public minds with the so-called "reverend" Wright: “looking forward to going back to Saddleback with his good friend Pastor Rick Warren.” Obama spoke at Saddleback in 2006. 2. McCain gets to publicly show that he is not averse to (so-called) Christian political churches, which he has criticized in past. 3. Rick Warren, Mr. Hireling and his "Purpose Driven Church"(merchandisers), gets to increase his publicity and no doubt a huge intake of "tithes and offerings" (and 5013c IRS laws will not prevent, since it is bipartisan) for his corrupt church, which Jesus and the apostles would not recognize any more than a Roman Catholic Mass. All in all, this is theater and corruption, religious and political leaders, like the Pharisees and Herodians getting together (who persecuted apostles, as Jesus warned), but no one dare say so.

POPSKeep the marketing out... A professional organization I belong to had an impromtu meetup in Lively. Yes, unexpected guests arrived and my cartoon was kissed without permission. My cartoon was also invited to watch streaming web content of a "too polite to repeat here" subject. I had participated in the meetup with high hopes that Lively might be the place to hang out with professionals in a virtually social setting. Guess What? I like hanging out in virtual worlds because it is an escape from the barrage of marketing at me. I have to endure advertising and marketing messages on the radio, on TV, cable, satelite...the Internet is one huge bombardment of marketing messages. I want virtual worlds to be a respite from marketing. I want a place to have a 3d representation of myself where I can collaborate with others. My advice: KEEP YOUR MARKETING OUT OF VIRTUAL WORLDS.

POPSOne Million Names on Terrorist Watch List Do they really think there are 1,000,000 terrorists in the US? How absurd does this whole police state thing have to get before we're all either up in arms or laughing at how ridiculous it all is?

POPSPopulate or perish: Pell Taking the racist line that we must breed up more soldiers to keep the infidel at bay. This at a time when David Attenburough regards overpopulation as the biggest of all the concerns for this planet ( and he is not the sole voice).

POPSFacebook Never Forgets "The Internet's anonymity, long memory and free-for-all gossip culture may yet prove a poisonous cocktail. But as our generation grows older and enters public life -- thankfully, we have some time -- we'll find ourselves in a political culture that increasingly views these "gotcha" moments in context and with an eye toward forgiveness. After all, the incriminating photo, the offensive blog post, that drunken 3 a.m. e-mail -- it could have been any of us."
