		<description><![CDATA[So here it is. This term the Supreme Court will decide the fate of the Affordable Care Act, a fact that given the fight for passage and then fight in the courts, is not that surprising.
So far the bulk of the focus has revolved around the individual mandate, perhaps the least popular provision of the [...]]]></description>

I don&#8217;t have a lot to add, because really, what more is there to say, and what I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And I&#8217;m back.
Just as I was prepared, again, to wash my hands of politics once and for all I get drawn back in.  I&#8217;m starting to think this is on purpose.
I was just about finished with the DNC.  The Democrats have floundered around since President Obama&#8217;s election, failing to capitalize on a legislative majority and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Words matter.  Definitions count. Take rape, for example.  House Republicans apparently believe that rape is only really rape if it involves force.  You’d be hard pressed to get Rep. John Boehner to publicly admit as much, but he doesn’t have to.  He just needs to stand behind one of his first policy priorities of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When repealing the 14th Amendment was merely a talking point of the fringe right, like many others I dismissed it as lunacy that could never gain any traction.  I mean, who in their right mind, in 2010, would want to return to the days of Dred Scott and de jure segregation, separate but equal and [...]]]></description>

Every State of the Union should have a judicial smackdown of someone like Justice Alito and a dance off joke.  Especially if it has Reid and Boehner in it.  And if you are [...]]]></description>
