		<description><![CDATA[Taxes are inevitable, or so they say. How much we should tax our citizenry, however, is debatable. Tea party members think we tax too much, and many liberals think we don&#8217;t tax quite enough.
I&#8217;m not going to take a position on the overall tax burden right now. Instead, I&#8217;ll point out two things I hope [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was a confession, one that was perhaps more revealing than the confessor realized. Mark Leibovich, writing about Politico in The New York Times Magazine in April, felt the need to disclose that he had known Mike Allen, the subject of his essay, for a dozen or so years, and that he was a fan [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;No&#8221; isn&#8217;t an ideology. 
&#8220;Nada&#8221; is no way to govern a country.
&#8220;Nope&#8221; won&#8217;t turn around the economy, and political rope-a-doping won&#8217;t balance the federal budget.
Yet if you had to summarize the three top &#8220;accomplishments&#8221; of the Republican party since Obama took office, they would be no, nada, and nope.  Because it is out of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is a dangerous time to compromise in the U. S. government. A Republican working with Obama is dead meat in the next primary. A Democrat who works with Republicans? Well, you saw what happened to Joe Lieberman the last time he ran as a Democrat.
Politicians are understandably worried that if they collaborate across the [...]]]></description>

The pundits have concluded that Obama made a big mistake by focusing on health care reform this past year, when he should have focused on the economy.  Politically speaking, the pundits are correct.  Obama has appeared to be ignoring the economy at the expense of health care reform, [...]]]></description>

Then again, with the condition of our state&#8217;s dismal economy, pothole season is becoming a year-round phenomenon here in the Great Lake State. Michigan&#8217;s government can no longer afford to fix roads like it used to, and the same goes [...]]]></description>

Look at the unemployment rate, for example. And have you seen the tax hikes they&#8217;re going to need to pay for healthcare reform? Oh yeah, and they did a great job with Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab didn&#8217;t they?-his dad told us he was going rogue, and then when he [...]]]></description>

That is essentially the question my colleagues and I posed to a wide swath of Americans, and a question, [...]]]></description>
