		<description><![CDATA[The economy is still in trouble and there will be more discussion about it in the coming weeks and months. We should not let morality obscure that discussion. Certainly we should strive for economic reforms that reward hard work and innovation rather than Wall St. coin clipping. We should also do what we can to make sure everyone has a fair chance at economic prosperity. But we shouldn’t let ourselves be led into the trap of believing that prudent spending is a sin or that our economy should go to hell.[...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday’s healthcare debate in the Senate Finance Committee was a dismal spectacle for so many reasons. Two public options were voted down. Sen. Baucus offered no better reason for voting against Sen. Schumer’s public option than his belief that other senators were not going to vote for it when the bill left committee. It was something less than heroic. But the last straw was when Sen. Grassley unabashedly adduced research that wouldn’t pass muster in an A.P. Government class.]]></description>

Paulson claims this program is not to be a stimulus package. The purpose of this program is to take bad mortgages off the books of banks and mortgage lenders so they no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the battle of Progressive Talk Radio versus Conservative Talk Radio, a clear winner is up for debate. Fans of Progressive Talk Radio rely greatly on satellite or the Internet, where there&#8217;s less restrictions for a No Holds Barred format. Conservative Talk Radio seems to more often take the &#8216;informative&#8217; approach whereas the Progressive Talk [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When Senator Arlen Specter became a Democrat today, he did a lot more than bring the democrats to within one seat of a filibuster proof Senate. It is expected that when the Franken/Coleman bout up in Minnesota finally sorts itself out, Democrat Al Franken will come out victorious. And that'll do it. No more flipping through phonebooks to kill time, the Senate will be filibuster proof, at least for now. [...]]]></description>

The plea came in his inaugural-address and later in a nationally televised speech to a joint session of Congress in February, shortly after taking office. The Senate passed a measure, named the Senator Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On a surface level it seems almost silly not to be in support of a program intended to bring about aid to those in need across America, but opponents to the expansion of AmeriCorps raise several key points about the timing, cost, and in essence the “mandate” to serve.  The House has already backed the [...]]]></description>

Franken called it satire due to the fact that his profession is that of a comedian. However, Republican women were [...]]]></description>
