		<description><![CDATA[So apparently it&#8217;s all over. I actually missed it, last week, thanks to various distractions and a relatively cryptic headline, and was still planning to go look for a petition to sign this week until I checked out the party web site and saw this. I suppose I&#8217;ll start with the good news, because there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, where are all those voices which were pontificating on the virtues of divided government, about a year ago? What&#8217;s happened to all of you? Don&#8217;t any of you want to tell us again how divided government is not only preferred by Americans but, in fact, genuinely for the best as it enforces compromise? Anyone&#8230;?

		<description><![CDATA[To the presumable distress of dictators near and far, the &#8220;Arab Spring&#8221; appears to be rumbling on, even if its name is more and more awkward, chronologically. As of this week, it seems safe to say that at the very least, Qadaffy&#8217;s prospects for hanging onto power are just-above nil. And fears that foreign intervention [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s pretty much going to be the reality of the next 18 months, isn&#8217;t it, aside from whatever extent it can describe much of the past decade. I don&#8217;t know about the Republicans, given that their [...]]]></description>

Please stop doing shit like this: Seriously, I know it&#8217;s hopeless to call for anything else but that doesn&#8217;t change the fact that this is fucking bullshit. &#8220;Congress&#8221; is not the cause of America&#8217;s debt-ceiling time bomb.

		<description><![CDATA[Evidence continues to mount that post-census redistricting will not be the armageddon which some of us thought it would be, for all that the new map still looks discouraging. So, that&#8217;s something of a relief. Of course, redistricting is still a complicated mess, and even long-serving, historically &#8220;safe&#8221; members of congress can find themselves no [...]]]></description>

In Libya, the ongoing &#8220;unrest&#8221; in the Arab world has come close to making a believer out of me. Colonel Kadaffy is apparently still in power in part of the country, but by [...]]]></description>

Yes, you read that right. Now the bad news: the collected Representatives actually voted 277-148 to extend these extensions of the security state. The extension was then, presumably only temporarilly, blocked [...]]]></description>
