		<title>Coffee Party creams Teabaggers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is why I&#8217;m a coffee drinker&#8230;
We had eight years of gross government malfeasance,  and now you get mad? 
You didn&#8217;t get mad when&#8230; the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.
You didn&#8217;t get mad when&#8230; Energy company officials were invited to dictate energy policy.

		<title>Health Care Matters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is worth a read because it is written by a Canadian but mostly because is debunks all the rightwing myths about universal health care using a system that many consider to have some flaws, yet it is still far superior to what we have and far less costly while providing all citizens access to [...]]]></description>

		<title>America is now out of darkness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We have now grown up as a country after 8 years of being run by a petulant child.  What a wonderful and historic day, and what an opportunity we have to save this country from the worst impulses of conservatism.

		<description><![CDATA[OK so Sarah Palin, aka Annie Oakley, comes out and delivers an eloquent assault on Barack Obama for his lack of experience (and when it comes to lack of experience she&#8217;s certainly familiar with the condition) and she does it with wit and eloquence (though the speech was written before she was even selected and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If being a POW is absolute qualification for good judgment and common sense we better listen to what this guy has to say.
