		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re on our way to Florida.  Our first day&#8217;s leg ended in a hotel at the southern end of South Carolina off of I-95.  We woke up early this morning when our terrier heard sounds outside.

		<description><![CDATA[US News and World Report has an article saying that the Pentagon is considering paying and arming Afghan militias.  Back in the late 1980&#8217;s President Carter, of all people, started doing this too.  He was concerned (or was influenced by Zbigniew Brzezinski&#8217;s concern) about the modern reform socialist government that had overthrown the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[See this survey and simple test that the Intercollegic Studies Institute gave to 2500 people.  Many of those who self-identify as elected officials didn&#8217;t do well.
