POPSWar Powers Revamp Recommendedby
Wisco Yesterday 2:56 PM One things for sure, recent history shows it's way too easy to go to war. Congress has totally shirked their responsibility, voting to "give authority" to a president to go to war, rather than sitting down and debating the merits of the action. One guy should never have that ability or responsibility. If Congress won't take its constitutional duty seriously, then a law that makes it a requirement might be just what we need.

POPSObama: "I need to earn troops' trust" Before they can trust, they have to respect. Clinton never got the respect of the troops other than the lickspittle Gen. Wesley Clark. Similarly, this empty suit, al Qaeda sleeper cell Hussein Obama, will never gain that respect. He represents the Left who continually stabbed them in the back during the long war.

POPSWar Photographer "Disembedded The Marine commanders who saw the photograph were not happy, saying it violated a "trust" between the military and journalists. The reason the Marines gave--that Zoriah had "provided the enemy with specific information on the effectiveness of the attack and the response of U.S. and Iraqi forces to the attack"--was nonsense. Now, I don't like seeing dead Americans at all. But if the country is going to fight a war, then the population needs to see the cost. What's next? Should we also ban combat-wounded paraplegics, amputees, and burn victims from going out in public after they return home? Is it just too shocking? Would not banning them from public allow the terrorists to achieve a victory on our own soil by inflicting dangerously low morale on the American public? Would it help al Qaeda with their battle damage assessments? And we certainly don't want the kids to see that kind of stuff--like Purple Heart awardees walking around without body parts.

POPSMcCain's Surge in Iraq Crippling Efforts in Afghanistan The death rate for American troops in Afghanistan last month was four times that of Iraq. The last two months have been the deadliest of the war for U.S. and NATO troops in Afghanistan since 2001. And today, Afghanistan sustained the deadliest single terrorist attack since 9/11 when suspected Taliban militants blew up the Indian embassy in Kabul. This is directly attributable to negligent policies set forth by the Bush administration--an administration dangerously obsessed with Iraq at the expense of the Real Global War on Terror. When many were urging the U.S. to focus on Afghanistan and Pakistan in early 2007, the Bush administration--with the support of Senator John McCain--launched the "surge" of troops into Baghdad. Unfortunately, Iraq is not, as John McCain says, the "central front" in the War on Terror--and it never has been. If there is such a thing, it is in Afghanistan and Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

POPSHiking Across the Czech Republic If you need any inspired travel ideas, read this story about a man and his wife who hiked the well-marked trails of Bohemia. Along the way the couple passed World War II bunkers (also used during the Cold War,) saw stunning vistas and drank locally-brewed beer.

POPSMore on the future of Iraq's oil In case you missed this bit from last month (I did), a number of no-bid contracts have been put in place to bring US oil giants (plus BP and Total) back to Iraq as "service" operators. And -- surprise -- they get to be paid in oil, not cash.

POPSIraq Vet Made Famous By Photo, Dies. The war was never over for Joseph Patrick Dwyer. He may have physically come home but forever mentally he would remain in the hell hole that Bush and his band of Neocons had created. With the wars suicide rates (Post-War Suicides May Exceed Combat Deaths) this war hasn't ended for countless troops who are back home. For many years to come, even if the next President can bring em all home (I'm not talking about McCain-McSame) many will suffer and die on their own turf. In that respect the Iraq war will never end, not for many years to come when there will be no one left on Earth who will remember this criminal war. And that is as sad as the war itself. How many more tears will be shed? thinkingblue.blogspot.com http://www.thethinkingblue.com/iraqvetdies.html

POPSLessons of Vietnam Lost on McCain Given how McCain feels about Vietnam, we can assume that the concept of a "lost cause" is alien to the man's mind. Like Vietnam, there is no winning -- it was doomed from day one. Logic dictates that wars without purpose can't be won, because there's no objective to achieve, Not a realistic ones, anyway. For McCain, it's all about winning or losing, not whether anything we're doing makes any damned sense at all. He seems to think that admitting a mistake is akin to forfeiting a football game by quitting in the middle of it. He doesn't seem capable of considering foreign policy objectively or realistically.

POPSElectricity company without grounds. As tragic as this incident is, the greater tragedy comes when people do not read the article correctly. I publish this reply from a Daily Mail reader as example. Surely EON have a case to answer in causing this tragic death. I would be taking them to the highest court in the land for millions! A disgrace beyond comprehension. - Guy, Exeter, 04/7/2008 17:26 What part of suicide bid does the reader not understand

POPSIran to Israel: "Go Ahead, Make My Day" Attack our facilities and war starts. US Admiral (a stand-in Liar who replaced the resisting and valiant Admiral Fallon, who called Gen Petreus a "chickensh*t" for kissing up to Bush) then lies saying Iran will attack Israel...while Iran has attacked no other country in over 200 years while Israel and the US have attacked many. Listen to this Democracy Now podcast with Seymour Hersh (NY Times) about how Israel cannot attack Iran without US involvement (i.e. American troops on the ground necessary for such operation, dying for Israeli aggression).

POPSBush War Policy, Oil Prices Chart Must see this oil price chart and pass it on! This article documents and graphically demonstrates the obvious that no one is saying, i.e the wars and war-mongering of Bush government are the main cause of high gas prices.

POPSHow the Surge has left us wounded "If we accept the mainstream narrative on its face, the surge worked. It transformed the U.S. troop presence from being counterproductive to being indispensable for maintaining stability. But can we continue with anything close to the current level of troops deployed over there?"
