		<description><![CDATA[A Slate magazine column, The Explainer, is a must read for me. It typically explains issues in the news or suggested by the news, such as these recent entries: What do Iraqis find so insulting about shoes and feet? Can you be a gay Mormon? Reading through the archive of questions answered this year is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at President George W. Bush in Baghdad was hailed as a hero today across the Middle East. In Baghdad, where the incident happened, protesters filled the streets and demanded his release from custody. When I first watched the video, I marveled at Bush&#8217;s sharp reflexes and calm under [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I doubt I&#8217;ll ever see anything as wondrous as tonight&#8217;s opening ceremonies at the Olympics. Never has a story been told so vividly on such a sweeping scale. Perhaps only an authoritarian government could pull it off. And yes, the story glosses over a shameful past and present. But to conceive and execute it so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Choose your most admired U.S. president. Imagine him saying this: Goodbye from the world&#8217;s biggest polluter. Now imagine him grinning widely and punching the air. And saying it while leaving a meeting of world leaders who had gathered in Japan to discuss combating climate change. According to a British newspaper, those present, including Gordon Brown [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fox News calls the Obamas&#8217; playful fist bump a â€œterroristâ€ handshake. An on-air guest says half-jokingly that Barack Obama needs to be assassinated. Fox refers to Michelle Obama as a â€œbaby mamaâ€ (euphemism for unwed black mother). Now this on the fair and balanced network: digitally altered photos of two New York Times reporters to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Touchy, touchy some people are, especially zealots on the way-out-there religious right. The American Family Association&#8217;s news web site has a filter that automatically changes words it doesn&#8217;t like. So an Associated Press story from Eugene, Oregon, about track star Tyson Gay was &#8220;corrected.&#8221; The headline: &#8220;Homosexual eases into 100 final at Olympic trials.&#8221; The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes the best insight and analysis of the day&#8217;s news comes from anonymous &#8220;readers&#8221; who, like me, devour our favorite blogs with unbridled fervor. Here&#8217;s a nod to just such a person, who takes on President Bush and John McCain for their attacks today on Barack Obama for his willingness to talk to Iran&#8217;s president.
