POPS “The Other 95%” = 100% Lies But how does he conjure this miracle, especially since more than a third of all Americans already pay no income taxes at all? There are several sleights of hand, but the most creative is to redefine the meaning of “tax cut.” For the Obama Democrats, a tax cut is no longer letting you keep more of what you earn. In their lexicon, a tax cut includes tens of billions of dollars in government handouts that are disguised by the phrase “tax credit.” A “credit” is not a “cut.” In order to cut something, there must be a something to cut. Otherwise, we’re merely — oh, how can I say this? — spreading the wealth around. Usually when politicians are caught in such a blatant mischaracterization of the facts, they revise their rhetoric. Not Obama! The lie remains on his website. And if we’re to believe Joe Biden, it’s not even a patriotic lie. Five years ago, the highest form of patriotism was dissent. Now that the dissenters want their taxes cut, paying taxes is the ...

POPSMedia Shifts to Damage Control as Politico Smear Fails to Take Out Cain
It is not support of Herman Cain so much as it is we've all had it with your tactics in the media. We've had it with the double standard. ... We've had it with you trying to cover up for John Edwards! We've had it with you lionizing Ted Kennedy and Chris Dodd, of "waitress sandwich" fame at La Brasserie in Washington. We've had it with you holding up as national heroes reprobates like this, and we've had it with you trying to take out our people on the basis of no knowledge whatsoever. We still don't know what you think Cain did -- and until you can tell us, as journalists, with incontrovertible proof, we're gonna doubt you because you have given us every reason in the world to not trust your reporting, because it is biased against us and our side and our people. That is inarguable! That is as obvious and honest as the sun comes up. Even Clinton has given up trying to deny the accusations against him. Clinton doesn't even deny them anymore.

POPSReally, this isn’t parody; the idiot really said it There are so many levels of mind-boggling stupidity in this that I don’t know where to begin. “Congress in rebellion?” Um, excuse me, Congressman Jackson, but Congress is a coequal branch of the government and not subservient to a monarch. “Extra-constitutional action?” Seriously? You’re suggesting that the president become a dictator and appropriate money himself, bypassing Congress and Article I? Congressman, let me remind you of your oath. This is the fundamental contradiction that lies at the heart of the progressive elites who dominate the Democratic Party (and their Big Labor and MSM allies): for all their lip service to the Constitution, our founding principles, and the “American Way,” they really don’t like democracy . As historian Steven Hayward wrote recently when talking about liberal anti-democrats: At the core of “Progressivism,” as it was called then and is again today, was the view that more and more of the business of individuals ...
