		<description><![CDATA[Reading this morning about Rick Santorum&#8217;s success in the Iowa caucus vote made me wonder whether someone slipped LSD into my coffee. How else to explain a presidential candidate of a major political party doing so well while opposing birth control and advocating that states can make it illegal. Santorum is essentially saying that a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rarely do I find commentary as incisive and articulate as that of Scott Horton. His &#8220;No Comment&#8221; blog for Harper&#8217;s Magazine illuminates current affairs not with polemics but cohesive facts and analysis. Reading his work I see the fog of he-said-she-said media coverage lift to reveal what looks like truth. Yes, the fluid and passionate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This homemade Obama sign in a yard not far from my house seems more appropriate now than during the campaign. Without the new president&#8217;s leadership, the economy would indeed end up busted. Like anyone, I don&#8217;t like the prospect of Himalaya-like deficits. But nearly every economist whom I&#8217;ve seen quoted says the only way to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[U.S. Senate Republicans made quite a spectacle in 2005, trying unsuccessfully to prevent comatose Terri Shiavo from getting unplugged from life support.

In other words, the GOP [...]]]></description>
