					  <description><![CDATA[The U.S House of Representatives rejected President Bush's 700 billion dollar rescue bid aimed at bailing out Wall Street (though they couldn't show this sense when their intelligent leader decided war was needed). With Wall Street's Dow Jones index taking its biggest one-day points fall in history after the deal was denied, European share indexes became immediately volatile in the Tuesday trading with huge declines hitting Asian stocks.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Both presidential candidates want to crucify SEC Chairman Cox for failing to control our creative financial institutions. But rumor has it that Congress specifically excluded the devilish derivatives from SEC purview. Let's fire the right bunch of "poips" for a change!<br/>
<br/>
Scary markets are brought about by many factors, some normal, and some not so normal.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Do any of you know about the day our country's water was on fire? If you are my age or older or just a history buff, this day will be in your mind forever. The day I'm talking about is the day Japan bombed Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, on Dec. 7, 1941. <BR>
<BR>
This was also the day before we entered World War 2. On Dec.8, 1941 our President asked the joint branches of Congress to declare war on the Empire of Japan.]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.politicnow.com/articles/718/1/Political-Lies-And-Global-Warming/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[There's an old joke about how you can tell when a lawyer is lying - his lips move. Can the same thing be applied to politicians? Oops - most politicians ARE lawyers!<br/>
<br/>
Is the public's increasing apathy towards politics partly due to the perception that politicians can't be trusted to give it to us straight? Have many of us become so jaded that we assume it's normal for politicians to lie? Where does "spin" end and outright lying begin? Is silence on an important issue the same as lying about it? And why do politicians fail to discuss these issues with us in a frank and thorough manner?<br/>
<br/>
Global warming may be the number one issue on which politicians lie.]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.politicnow.com/articles/712/1/Tax-Shifting-And-Environmental-Economics/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[The need for tax shifting - lowering income taxes while raising taxes on environmentally destructive activities - in order to get the market to tell the truth has been widely endorsed by economists. The basic idea is to establish a tax that reflects the indirect costs to society of an economic activity. For example, a tax on coal would incorporate the increased health care costs associated with breathing polluted air, the costs of damage from acid rain, and the costs of climate disruption.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[No one can say that saw the Democratic convention that it was not a spirit filled, upbeat event. There were several well liked headlining speech givers such as Ted Kennedy, Hilary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and even the wife of Obama, Michelle, gave a speech that was great by the standards of anyone. The Democratic convention appeared to go off without a hitch that was noticeable and it was said by many to be an overall success.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[There is a brand new topic on the political scene in the past few days. The subject of whether the Republican vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, is a good choice or not because of certain circumstances that have nothing to do with her ability to fill the job offered to her if she is elected along with John McCain. Or does it? This is going to be a closely debated topic because it is not about her qualifications for the job, but whether she should be seeking the job.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Almost two years ago when so many candidates announced they would run for president, there was much excitement in the air even then. Those first crowded debates were wrought with various opinions about what were the most important issues facing our country. In a matter of months the choice for a Republican candidate was picked as one by one the Republican runners were eliminated.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[It would take an expert in the field to be able to give us an approximate estimate on how many American lives have been lost because of all the wars we have been involved in since the formation of our country. It would be a very large number of lives to say the least. We have fought some wars that we could not avoid and some wars that have been controversial to many of our citizens.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[The Texas Governor's Mansion, which is located a block southwest of the Texas State Capitol Building in downtown Austin, is the most historic home in the Austin real estate market and the longest continuously inhabited executive residence west of the Mississippi River. Built in 1856, the Governor's Mansion underwent construction after the Texas Legislature appropriated $14,500 in order for a suitable home to be built for the 5th governor of Texas, Elisha Pease, and his wife, Lucadia.]]></description>
