		<title><![CDATA[Time for the Tumbrils!]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in the 1960s, Herbert Marcuse pointed out in one of his books that
the Pentagon had given up on verbs. Pentagonese consisted of clotted
groups of nouns, marching along in groups of three or four. Verbs, which
connected nouns in purposive ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[The Port Huron Statement -- 50 Years on]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fifty years ago, a group of students in the American Midwest issued a
document rather portentously titled "The Port Huron Statement." It was
the founding manifesto of Students for a Democratic Society and became
one of the most famous documents of...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Obama's Lackluster State of the Union]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[Does one await a presidential State of the Union address with keen
anticipation? It's like saying one looks forward to taking a niece to
"The Nutcracker." The last time I truly enjoyed one -- the speech, not
the ballet -- was Bill Clinton's in ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Poor Romney. He's back in the Newt nightmare. Here comes the portly
Georgian, brushing aside the guards outside Romney's hotel suite,
kicking open the bedroom door, seizing Romney by the throat ... Aaaargh!
And then Romney is awake, realizing that...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[War on Iran: It’s Not a Matter of “If”]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[The world’s press is choc-a-bloc with “if” questions about Iran
and war. Will Israel attack? Is Obama, coerced by domestic politics in
an election year, being dragged into war by the Israel lobby? Will he
lunch the bombers? Is the strategy ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[He Signed It on the Dotted Line]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[America changed as the new year stumbled across the threshold, but the
big shift didn't get much press, which is easy to understand. Can there
be a deader news day than a New Year's Eve that falls on a weekend?
Besides, alive or dead, habeas ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Too bad Kim Jong-il kicked the bucket last weekend. If the divine hand
that laid low the North Korean leader had held off for a week or so, Kim
would have been sustained by the news that President Obama had signed
into law a bill that puts the ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Suffer the Little Children]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[Newt Gingrich, who recently admitted that his own childhood was
comfortable, seems to have a problem with youth -- poor youth, that is.
Back in 1994, the Gingrich master plan to shrink the welfare rolls was
to ship the children of the poor off to ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Barack Obama Plays the Teddy Roosevelt Card a Little Late]]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[When in doubt, wheel on Teddy Roosevelt. It's article one in every
Democratic president's playbook. Roosevelt was president from 1901 to
1909. He was manly; he ranched in North Dakota and explored the Amazon.
He was a rabid imperialist, charging ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[The People vs. 'Europe']]></title>
		<description><![CDATA[It looks as though the eurozone may be in a decisive meltdown, which is
just fine in my book. The sooner we get back to francs, lire, punts,
drachmas and the rest of the old sovereign currencies, the better.

It used to be as much a part of going ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>
