		<title>clinton race-baiting getting more blatant</title>
		<description><![CDATA[on this site in recent months we&#8217;ve had lively debates over the extent to which the sean bell verdict was a racial episode, and over the racial identity of the geico caveman. for some reason, race seems to be the one issue we almost always find something to argue about.
but can we agree that this [...]]]></description>

		<title>more questionable marketing tactics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[as nice as it is to see paulie again, i have to question the public relations wisdom at denny&#8217;s. someone there evidently thought it would improve the restaurant&#8217;s image to promote the idea that they&#8217;ve hired a fictional TV sociopath to muscle the competition.

		<description><![CDATA[move over, kevin bacon:

The latest right-wing game is to pin controversial figures, who might have said or done anything objectionable at any point in their lifetimes, to Barack Obama. Then make him apologize for them. Then make him denounce and reject them. And then say he hasn&#8217;t done enough to &#8220;distance&#8221; himself from them&#8230;
So, let&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Government should invest 10% of its transport budget on cycling and walking initiatives, according to a coalition of health, transport and leisure groups.

		<title>probing the mysteries of black anger</title>
		<description><![CDATA[as i&#8217;ve said before, i think barack obama has done a fine job of articulating the reasons behind many black americans&#8217; receptiveness to remarks like the now-infamous ones by rev. wright. but here&#8217;s a much more succinct explanation:

Three detectives were found not guilty Friday on all charges in the shooting death of Sean Bell, who [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[this is such a transparent good cop/bad cop ploy. the GOP continues flogging the jeremiah wright meme while straight-shooting john mccain pretends to be above the mudslinging, and subservient political reporters are only too happy to let him have it both ways:

		<description><![CDATA[enough of this crap.
howard dean is right: we have to get on with it and nominate a candidate already. neither clinton nor obama can reach the magic number of pledged delegates before the convention, and nobody benefits from more of what we saw wednesday night except the GOP. superdelegates, it&#8217;s time to pick your pony.

if you don&#8217;t detect just a whiff of bitterness in the fact that 81% of us think &#8216;things have pretty seriously gotten off on the wrong track,&#8217; you fundamentally misunderstand the political mood of [...]]]></description>

I love how our Captains of Industry constantly call for the government to keep its nose out of the marketplace, and then as soon as all their awful decisions catch up with them it suddenly becomes to government&#8217;s job to bail them out.
Anyway, if you or anyone you know has any interest in buying a [...]]]></description>
