POPSThis Must Have Disappointed the Obama Haters Remember all the fear mongering from Obama haters about how Obama was anxious to get chummy with Iranian President Ahmadinejad? This cautionary approach must have come as a rude awakening to them:

POPSWhen All Truth Is Relative "Although this gambit may pay short-term political dividends, in the long run it only serves to further divide Americans into their ideological enclaves -- with conservatives getting their news from X and liberals from Y. More important, by undermining the very idea of truth, it also undermines the idea that, as a nation, we can collectively and honestly describe and find solutions to the problems we all face."

POPSDear Old Love I wish I’d saved a few pairs of your underwear, to seal in a jar and keep on a shelf high in the pantry. Is that the sort of thing that makes you miss me, or glad it’s over? :lol:

POPSMark Morford on Elitism
Also, you read. 17. You are, for some godforsaken reason, absolutely convinced all the way down to your most profound sense of what is divine and truthful in this strangled world that violence and bloodshed are rarely the answer, that the irrefutable spiritual laws of the universe confirm that like attracts like and even at a quantum level there is a profound pull toward a divine, benevolent dynamic equilibrium, and therefore constructing a malicious national policy of torture and surveillance and pre-emptive aggression merely shames the better nature of the human animal and invites a particularly violent energy into the national bloodstream and poisons the human heart as it creates nothing but more turmoil and unrest and hate in the world. Man, only an elitist jerk would tolerate a ridiculous run-on sentence like that. 18. Your most treasured pieces of writing don't feature Muggles, Hobbits, glossy centerfolds of Dale Earnhardt Jr., dogs named Marley, or an angry and omnipotent

POPSMistress Palin, the Alaskan Dominatrix Excellent piece explaining the knee jerk reaction caused by Palin's convention appearance. But the feeling by many "experts" is that she is gonna scare the shit out of independents and undecided voters who fear for their jobs and pocket books.

POPSNO Filming or NO Fly. Isn't the plane property of JetBlue thus making it private property? I record a lot of videos too so I feel for gramma but she has to realize that her age and whether or not she said she planned to use it for personal reasons do not matter. If they don't want people filming on/in their property and any altercations that occur therein then they have every right to inform her. It shouldn't matter if you're 56 or 16 - they will enforce it. Not to sound like a total jerk but how many would be saying "Oh the poor thing!" if this tale were about a 16 year old boy? Yeah, it was a bit terse the way they handled it and they could have been a little nicer overall, there was no need of the accusations and attitude, but still - its their right. We pay for the privilege of the service, using their machine for personal transport, we do not have an inherent right to fly and to disregard the rules of public vs. private property.

POPSRunning While Black- For President of the US Right wing drivel and garbage innuendo's are the essence of the Republican's "campaign. If they can provoke enough knee-jerk emotional reaction within this so poorly educated majority, they might just win anyway.

POPSI’m a Modern Man--CLASSIC GEORGE CARLIN
I'm in the moment, on the edge, over the top, but under the radar. A high-concept, low-profile, medium-range ballistic missionary. A street-wise smart bomb. A top-gun bottom-feeder. I wear power ties, I tell power lies, I take power naps, I run victory laps. I'm a totally ongoing, big-foot, slam-dunk rainmaker with a pro-active outreach. A raging workaholic, a working rageaholic; out of rehab and in denial. I've got a personal trainer, a personal shopper, a personal assistant, and a personal agenda. You can't shut me up; you can't dumb me down. 'Cause I'm tireless, and I'm wireless. I'm an alpha-male on beta-blockers. I'm a non-believer, I'm an over-achiever; Laid-back and fashion-forward. Up-front, down-home; low-rent, high-maintenance. I'm super-sized, long-lasting, high-definition, fast-acting, oven-ready and built to last. A hands-on, footloose, knee-jerk head case; prematurely post-traumatic, and I have a love child who sends me hate-mail. But I'm

POPSChuck Schumer Causes $1.3 Billion Run On IndyMac: Bank Failure Results
In other words the bank failed in large part, not because of the admittedly poor loan underwriting policies they used, but because they lacked the liquidity to cover the sudden demand for cash cause by Mr. Schumer’s bank run. Yep, old Microphone Mouth has been at it again. It is very possible that IndyMac might have failed anyway, they were engaged in some very dumb practices like giving “Alt A” loans (loans in which the borrower is not required to provide proof of income), but there can be no doubt that the immediate failure of IndyMac was caused to a very large extent by the despicable actions of a publicity seeking, grandstanding, Liberal jerk, who, like all Liberal politicians, was far more interested in what he might gain politically from the bank’s failure than he was about what the failure might mean to the banks stockholders, employees, and customers. Senator Schumer’s actions were reckless and inexcusable given his position on the Senate Banking Committee.
