		<title>Thune:  A Presidential Prospect to Watch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY JOHN FEEHERY
Reprinted from the Feeherytheory.com
I ran into Congressman Jimmy Duncan in the hall of the Capitol and we had a little chat.
Duncan is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, a savvy politician who is completely honest and to the untrained eye, just an awe-shucks, country lawyer type of person.
Duncan has taken [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BY GARY ANDRES
Reprinted from weeklystandard.com
            Last November, as members of the House of Representatives considered the health care reform bill, President Obama made a dramatic trip to Capitol Hill. After closing down sixteen blocks of Pennsylvania Avenue, a half-mile long White House motorcade whisked the presidential entourage past cheering tourists to meet with the House [...]]]></description>

		<title>Obama and Legislative Power</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY GARY ANDRES

Reprinted from weeklystandard.com
The news media hailed President Obama’s victory on the Wall Street reform bill signed into law earlier this week as another example of his legislative prowess.
When it comes to congressional arm-twisting, New York Times reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg, like others, extolled him as a modern day LBJ.
 “If passage of the financial [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BY MICHAEL S. JOHNSON         
Reprinted in part from washingtonexaminer.com
            “I don’t know what to do anymore.”
            In the 20 years I’ve known him, Jeff has never uttered words like that about the wholesale-distributor business he built from scratch over the past 25 years in Maryland, D.C. and Delaware. He’s had ups and downs like every [...]]]></description>

		<title>This Election Won’t Be the Last</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY BILL GREENER  III
Republicans—for good reasons—are pretty giddy about the prospects for Election Day.  Unless unemployment suddenly drops, there is just no precedent in American history for the election to result in anything other than a massive victory for Republicans.  The mainstream media can rant all they want about the Tea Party and the party [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thomas’ Revenge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY GARY ANDRES
Reprinted from weeklystandard.com
Bill Thomas loved schemes. The former California congressman, who chaired the House Ways and Means Committee from 2001 to 2006, practiced the arcane art of parliamentary procedure like a wizard, concocting potions that turned his political opponents into hapless frogs.
Thomas sometimes even kept the details of his grandiose plans a secret [...]]]></description>

		<title>Biden No Jack on Message</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY JOHN FEEHERY
Reprinted from: feeherytheory.com
Sometimes, I just want to strangle Ronald McDonald.
From approximately 2 in the afternoon yesterday until about 8 o’clock yesterday night, my four-year old son had one message and one message only.  He wanted to go to Old McDonald.
Old McDonald – as he likes to call the place where you get the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Heed the Call</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY RICH GALEN
 What follows will be considered nothing less than heresy by other children of the &#8217;60s (who are now IN our 60s), but the irony is too perfect to ignore.

The poet laureate of our generation was a guy named Robert Allen Zimmerman, better known to some as Bob Dylan.
Of all the poems he set [...]]]></description>

		<title>McChrystal Story Still Untold</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BY MICHAEL S. JOHNSON
 The flash from the explosion&#8211;and implosion&#8211;of General Stanley McChrystal has faded and his story is already old news.  Lindsay Lohan, Mel Gibson and Rod Blagojevich are back in the headlines. 
 That’s too bad.   If there is any good to come of the McChrystal tragedy, if we as a society are to learn from [...]]]></description>
