POPSUnderage Strip Performance deemed 'artistic' Another example of a society adrift. A 17 yr old girl strips in a BAR serving alcohol and judge finds nothing 'illegal' about this? After reading this story I have to sit here and wonder what the heck happened to common sense and decency and to think there are actually people who do not see the harm this type of behavior has on our society. This one certainly belongs in the Cuckoo's nest.

POPSJohn McCain plays us for fools John McCain makes a mockery of the campaign finance system he helped create. His campaign operates fronts for the RNC which uses unregulated funds in close cooperation with the McCain campaign. And we're paying him for the privileged.

POPSCalifornia to drivers: Drop the cell phone... This is one law that's come out of California that I'm in favor of implementing. However, I agree that it's the *talking* that distracts a person from his driving, not necessarily holding the phone. And I can sympathize with the person sitting for long periods of time not wanting to waste time looking at his neighbors. The text messaging thing was shocking. Common sense should tell you that!!

POPSFinally! We hear so much about alternative energy sources and reducing fuel consumption but exceedingly little on energy traders who some sources say are responsible for up to 50% of the fuel price we pay here in the US. Unlike McCain's silly offshore solution this tactic has the best chance of immediately reducing the cost of fuel.

POPS $300,000,000 "Splash and Dash" Scam On U.S.Taxpayers Congress cannot get the loophole closed because the National Biodiesel Board wants to sustain the subsidy to U.S. growers. The IRS cannot figure out which biodiesel tankers coming in and out of U.S. ports are splashing and dashing and which are doing legitimate business. Manning Feraci, vice president of federal affairs at the National Biodiesel Board: “We’re creating jobs in rural America. We support over 20,000 jobs. And these are green jobs that are helping to address our energy security needs…” Congressman John Shadegg (R-Ariz.): “Taxpayers should be outraged because they are subsidizing foreign consumers of biodiesel…That is insane, and it’s a ridiculous burden to put on American taxpayers.” If the U.S. Congress cannot resolve the matter, the E.U. parliament may. Their Trade Commissioner has already requested an investigation and is threatening a retaliatory tariff.

POPSDo Dolphins Have a Sense of the Future? It is their ability to understand sentences of sign language that astound though, with a sentence like “touch the frisbee with your tail and then jump over it” returning just that from the dolphin. This proves more than just rigorous training is the answer, but an understanding of what we are asking of them.

POPS151 Congressmen Derive Financial Profit From War Follow the money. War is a racket that hides behind concepts like terror, patriotism, god and the like. It is greed in one form or another that fuels man's need for war, greed is one of the highest forms of evil and there seems no end of it in our species.

POPSOfficial Says Fraud Loophole Was A ‘Mistake’ The U.S. has spent about $102 billion on rebuilding Iraq and Afghanistan over the last five years. Federal investigators have uncovered about $14 million in fraud. WTF?--there's gotta be a LOT more than that missing or corrupted.
