POPS Remember The 111th that were supposed to fund the military. Nobody knew what this Congress was really voting on… including members of Congress, who didn’t bother to read the bills anyway. The disgraceful “leadership” of Pelosi and Reid will be studied by generations to come, in the kind of class future kids only have to take when they’re caught skipping more interesting classes to fool around on their hoverboards. This was a Congress at war with American business, which is a war against American liberty, since business is the instrument through which we invest the hours of our lives. The 111th Congress spent its term menacing the private sector with disastrous, economy-killing ideas like cap-and-trade, Card Check, and value-added taxes… then wondered why nobody was creating any jobs. There’s no point in taking risks and doing the hard work to be a winner, when the losers get taxpayer bailouts, provided they have employees from the right labor unions. Of course, this is the Congress ...

POPSDemocrats' Cavalcade of Corruption Continues: New Evidence Against Maxine Waters May Make Her Radioactive in 2011
The e-mails are between Mikael Moore, Ms. Waters’s chief of staff, and members of the House Financial Services Committee, on which Ms. Waters serves. The e-mails show that Mr. Moore was actively engaged in discussing with committee members details of a bank bailout bill apparently after Ms. Waters agreed to refrain from advocating on the bank’s behalf. The bailout bill had provisions that ultimately benefited OneUnited, a minority-owned bank in which her husband, Sidney Williams, owned about $350,000 in shares... ...A person directly involved in the investigation said the new e-mails could show that members of her staff continued to work on the bank’s behalf... “It may directly contradict a bit of Maxine’s story, if not the actual facts, the way she has told it,” said the person, who did not want to be identified because of the sensitivity of the trial. Waters may not be the only Democrat in trouble if this is true. The e-mails used loaded but generic terms ...

POPS Stop Blaming Bush trust their own judgment more than the president's. The voters spoke loudly in this Tuesday’s elections, a precursor to the bruising battles ahead. Specter, Obama’s candidate—like Martha Coakley, Jon Corzine and Creigh Deeds—lost. Rand Paul, the Tea Party favorite, won, a movement energized by Obama’s overreaching policies. And Arkansas Senator Blanche Lincoln’s fate is still unknown with a June runoff ahead, but win or lose, the seat is likely to go Republican in the fall. Though Mark Critz bested Tim Burns in the special election for the late Jack Murtha’s seat in the heavily Democratic 12th District of Pennsylvania, he ran as a conservative (pro-tax breaks, pro-coal, pro-gun rights and anti-ObamaCare). The blame game is over. Voters want the president to be a leader who accepts responsibility, who looks ahead. by Mark McKinnon http://www.thedailybeast.com

POPSSpinningAnti-Liberalism Into"Anti-incumbency" Obama and the Democrats misread the 2008 elections, misunderstood the mood of the people and pursued an agenda that voters neither expected nor wanted. Voters see this administration as a bunch of leftist, redistribute-the-wealth, we-know-better-how-to-spend-your-money-and-run-your-lives-and-manage-your-businesses, smug busybodies. Tax revenues have plummeted, while government continues to grow "We Are All Socialists Now," said Newsweek in a cover story last year. "No," say the voters. "We are not."

POPSThad McCotter: The Time Greg Gutfeld Ate Reagan's Chicken at Bob Tyrrell's House Note. As President of the Chelsea-by-the-Sea Thad McCotter Fan Club , we are, of course supporting the Michican District 11 incumbent's re-election bid. His twittering leaves all others' in the dust. This from last night: If we hadn't already fallen hard for Thad when we first set eyes on him on Red Eye just after Valentine's Day, this little rant from something calling itself "Mad At Thad" would have done the trick: spectator.org/blog --http://bit.ly/cRmjya Thad McCotter has became a darling of the extreme right in recent weeks. Whether it be his participation in the Plymouth Township Tea Party or his consistent stops on Fox News, Thad McCotter is aligning himself with the most extreme elements of the Republican Party. He has aligned himself with supply-side, trickle-down economics even as their disastrous effects come to light.

POPSTen MOST WANTED Corrupt Politicians
A review of history for the last two decades will demonstrate to anyone who looks closely that Congress, under either party, has been growing the powers of the Presidency, and we, the Voters, have been buying the propaganda. It is time to stop drinking the koolaid! And it's high time to vote out the professional politicians who no longer even pretend to represent their constituencies---or Harry Reid would've abandoned his attempts to pass legislation which will not help anyone's health, and is not supported by a majority of the People of the United States. We need to stop buying into the nonsense that any of the proposed 'freedoms' that the President and his party hold out are for anyone's benefit but those who would be a new ruling class. 'Freedom from poverty' and 'Freedom from hunger' and any of those 'freedoms' they tout are shackles. And we need to keep our focus and stop burning energy on those battles which do not help us, and fight to turn out all those who support leg

POPSMurtha Remembered by Shawn Ryan "John Murtha has been lionized in the press for all of his service to the country instead of all his service to himself and his business associates. I know that I and many Mar -ines and their families will remember him for never apologizing to the innocent warriors whose lives he destroyed by serving as judge and jury. He passed away before being held accountable for hijacking the mili- tary procurement system and denying our troops in the field the best equipment they could get. Unfortunately, much of our leadership in Washington will pick up where he left off, forsaking anything for a vote and ignoring the warriors who give them the freedom to do so."

POPSDissing America Democrat Congressman Jack Murtha accused our military of rape and murder. Democrat Senator Dick Durbin accused the America's treatment of GITMO detainees as being equal to the Nazis' death camps, the Soviet gulags, and the genocidal campaigns of Pol Pot. President Obama accused the U.S. of arrogance. He chastised us for consuming too much and settings our thermostats too high. Obama travels the world bowing to foreign leaders and apologizing for our country.

POPSWhat Would Jesus Think of the Religious Right? The radical right – be it the Christian coalition, the white supremacists, the neo-nazis and others – are the embodiment of all that is ugly in America. They prey on the weak-minded, the lonely and the psychopaths of society. They preach a gospel of hate and intolerance which goes against the very essence of what the Bible teaches. In this group I would include the Limbaughs, Savages, Falwells and Dobsons, for beneath their cloak of pious indignation, the message is clear – if your neighbor is not white, Christian, heterosexual or American-born, then fear them.

POPSMatthews Apologizes for West Point 'Enemy Camp' Slur Chris Matthews "Hardball".... West Point Slur VIDEO http://www.eyeblast.tv/public/checker.aspx?v=GdqGQu2Guz People who have watched me over the years know, I think, of my strong devotion to this country and strong gratitude toward those who serve it in the military. It's because our military is so good and true I want the civilians who make the policies and set the missions to get ‘em right in this country's best possible interest. And by the way it's something we're allowed to argue about in this country. Whenever I meet someone with a service record I always say, "Thank you for your service." They know I say it and I hope they know I mean it. Now to President Obama and the criticism he's facing from both the left and the right. A few minutes ago I spoke with Democratic Congressman Jack Murtha of Pennsylvania, chairman of the subcommittee on Defense Appropriations. Newsbusters.org http://bit.ly/8GlFmg
