POPSACLU: Justice Dept. Institutes 'Racial Profiling as a Matter of Policy' The piece goes on: “The attorney general today gave the FBI a blank check to open investigations of innocent Americans based on no meaningful suspicion of wrongdoing,” said Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director of the ACLU. “The new guidelines provide no safeguards against the FBI’s improperly using race and religion as grounds for suspicion. They also fail to sufficiently prevent the government from infiltrating groups whose viewpoints it doesn’t like. The FBI has shown time and time again that is incapable of policing itself and there is good reason to believe that these guidelines will lead to more abuse.”

POPSNo Gay marriage Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

POPSAn Election Without Meaning Props, gossip, accusations, and public relations. It is impression management from a candidates’ perspective. How can we fool the most people into believing that we stand for something? It is billions of dollars of gravy for the media folks and continued profit maximization for the war machine, Wall Street, and insurance companies, no matter who is determined the winner in November.

POPSSubstantive Presidential Debates Are Hard to Find
Overall, 32% of the questions asked in debates were non-substantive; Only 9% of the questions concerned the economy. The debates hosted by PBS and Univision were the most substantive, with 100% and 82% substantive questions respectively. Fox and ABC hosted the least substantive debates; fewer than half the questions were substantive. The front-running candidates in both parties were more likely to be asked questions focused on trivia, while the candidates trailing badly in the polls were more likely to be asked substantive questions. For example, 73 percent of the questions posed to Dennis Kucinich were substantive, while only 51 percent of the questions given to Barack Obama were substantive, and only 59 percent of the questions for John McCain were substantive. Of those who moderated more than one debate, Salinas and Ramos of Univision asked the most substantive questions (88% and 73%, respectively). Chris Wallace of Fox (33%) asked the fewest substantive questions.

POPSEPA against limiting rocket fuel ingredient in water (cont.) “This is a widespread contamination problem, and to see the Bush EPA just walk away is shocking,” said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-California, who chairs the Senate’s environment committee. Lenny Siegel, director of the Center for Public Environmental Oversight in Mountain View, California, added: “This is an unconscionable decision not based upon science or law but on concern that a more stringent standard could cost the government significantly.”

POPSIcahn Responds To Cornelius What's amazing about ImClone's press release is the way it encourages looking at the personalities of the two dealmakers-- ImClone chairman Carl Icahn and Bristol chief Jim Cornelius -- over and above the two companies that are actually involved in the merger deal.

POPS The 110th's Do-Nothingness -- They Need A Rest: Yipee A bipartisan group of senators who sought a compromise in the rancorous energy debate won't introduce their bill before lawmakers adjourn for the elections, several Senate aides said Thursday. Since the group won't offer a bill, it's unclear how the energy debate will unfold days before the scheduled Sept. 26 adjournment. Anyway, it sounds like the Senate will now not find the time to debate and vote on an energy bill before the recess (they need rest, darn it, they've been back at work for days! ), but that seems better than passing a meaningless bill and taking the issue off the table for the foreseeable future. For a change, the 110th's do-nothingness and partisan gridlock is a blessing.

POPS How do you make the object of your affections fall in love with you? A person's smell provides clues about their genetic make-up. We are programmed to sniff out those whose genes are different to our own. This apparently helps ensure any children born will have broad immunity against disease. Those looking to impress should also keep conversation to a minimum and concentrate on their appearance. Research shows that 55 per cent of first impressions are based on how we look rather than what we say. Getting off the sofa and out and about is also important. 'Meeting a lot of people is key,' Mr Robinson said. 'Sitting there moping and eating chocolate is not going to get you anywhere.
