		<title>biden&#8217;s not so bad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	From the woman who gave fish bicycles, to any remaining Hillary supporters considering voting for McCain: 
	To vote in protest for McCain/Palin would be like saying, &#8216;Somebody stole my shoes, so I&#8217;ll amputate my legs.&#8217;&#8221;
(Gloria Steinem, that is, in the LA Times.)
	Anyway, in other I&#8217;m-totally-behind-the-news news, apparently &#8220;Gilmore Girls&#8221; creator Amy Sherman-Palladino blogged the DNC [...]]]></description>

		<title>I hate Joe Biden</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	I hate Joe Biden.
	I really don&#8217;t know anything about his politics, and I&#8217;ve never followed anything he&#8217;s done closely.
	All I really know about him I learned from the John Roberts confirmation hearings, which I watched nearly all of. I remember nearly none of it, except that over the course of the blah blah blah and [...]]]></description>

		<title>celebration</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	July 4th weekend spawned a variety of commentary on what it means to be “patriotic” &#8212; some of it thoughtful, some of it less so. I’m not sure where I’d fall in the mix, but my weekend was celebratory, and further endeared to me this place I call home.
	We kicked it off on Thursday with [...]]]></description>

		<title>city cats</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	So, we&#8217;re in midtown.
	Our arrival coincided rather unfortunately with a spate of violence that I&#8217;m sure those of you who live in the area heard way too much about &#8212; but despite the coincidence, I swear, it wasn&#8217;t us. Anyway, the violence appears to have subsided, at least temporarily, following a number of arrests and [...]]]></description>

		<title>libertarianism? not so much.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	In their June 9th issue, Newsweek has an article entitled &#8220;Is Wal-Mart Too Liberal?&#8220;, examining conservative shareholders&#8217; criticisms of Wal-Mart and ilk.
	Here&#8217;s an excerpt: &#8220;&#8230;the right-leaning Free Enterprise Action Fund (FEAF), a tiny libertarian mutual fund, filed resolutions with 20 companies this spring, including Wal-Mart. Most of the FEAF resolutions argue that companies should be [...]]]></description>

		<title>graceful exit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	CNN, The New York Times, and others are reporting that Hillary will announce the suspension of her campaign on Saturday. 
	CNN has a pdf of the letter she sent to her supporters announcing the, erm, announcement.
	I&#8217;m so glad that she has decided to do this graciously. Watching her speech on Tuesday night, I thought she [...]]]></description>

		<title>rules &#038; bylaws</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	So here&#8217;s the thing &#8212; it sucks that Florida and Michigan decided to ignore the DNC&#8217;s rules and move their primaries up. My understanding is that they knew it would cost them seats at the convention.
	I should probably preface this little rant with the disclaimer that I hope to vote for Obama (again) in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I received today a very inspiring email. &#8220;I really miss your blog,&#8221; it said, and that was it. I thought about hitting reply and saying, &#8220;Me too,&#8221; but thought instead that I would just bite the bullet and write something (very) slightly more substantial, and post it &#8212; wait for it &#8212; to my blog.
	So [...]]]></description>

		<title>on bitterness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	A piece of business first: I just deleted 5,500 comments that were being held in moderation. The vast majority were clearly offers of hardcore pics of various celebrities, but I didn&#8217;t read all of them, so if you left a comment that never appeared, I probably just deleted it. But that&#8217;s not the point of [...]]]></description>
