		<title>Bastards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I watched The Daily Show episode with Marc Thiessen and all I wanted to to smack his pasty fat white face.  I wanted to waterboard him.  But, that isn&#8217;t going to happen.  Conor Friedersdorf has a take down that is worth reading.  It is about an innocent man being held at Gitmo for seven years [...]]]></description>

		<title>Word</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a veteran, one of the things that has irritated me the most is the speed with which the US Government, under the Bush Administration so speedily turned into depraved psychopaths and started directing individuals to be tortured.  This torture was overseen by people in the highest levels of government.  A speechwriter for President Bush [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reject the premise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I see things like this headline and my pulse goes up.
Irving Kristol saved the right from intellectual bankruptcy in the &#8217;60s. Who will save it now?
What a crock of shit.  Irving Kristol was a gas bag and so is his son.

		<title>The root of all evil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The root of all evil is not the love of money.  The root of all evil is the willingness to lie and call it the truth.  Representative Ryan of Wisconsin is calling his tax plan fair, but here are the highpoints:

Provides individual income tax payers a choice of how to pay their taxes – through [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rubicon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just finished &#8220;Rubicon&#8221; by Tom Holland.  I don&#8217;t have time to write at length about it, I found it to be very interesting.  Rubicon is a historical narrative about the end of the Roman Republic.  I thought I knew something about Roman history, having been married to someone who was ABD&#8217;d in Roman History, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Frank Rich</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I want to see Frank Rich go toe to toe with George Will on the Sunday morning TV shows.  Rich would float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.  It would be beautiful.  I think that Rich is pretty good with the right cross too.
No one knows what history will make of the present [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fly away</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Silvia, the fat gray cat of this household, caught a rat last month and today caught a bird.  I think this proves the process of evolution, because only a really slow rat or a really dumb bird would have gotten caught by the tub of lard named Silvia.
But catch a bird she did and she [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bad writing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things that the Internet has provided is a lot of bad writing, writing that would not pass a freshman English course.  I have generated some of it, but this is my little blog and I really don&#8217;t give a damn if people like it or not.
HuffPo is one of the larger sites [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thoughts about CPAC</title>
		<description><![CDATA[CPAC just finished in Washington DC.  Glenn Beck was the headliner.  He bills himself as a conservative, but what kind of conservative is he?
When I think about conservatism, I reflect on the Frisch play, &#8220;Biedermann and the Firebugs&#8221; (Biedermann und die Brandstifter). The play was written at time when Germans were trying to answer the [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s a go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Scott Horton writes about Dick Cheney&#8217;s recent escapades.
“I was a big supporter of waterboarding,” Cheney said in an appearance on ABC’s This Week on Sunday. He went on to explain that Justice Department lawyers had been instructed to write legal opinions to cover the use of this and other torture techniques after the White House [...]]]></description>
