		<description><![CDATA[I must admit, I was surprised by McCain&#8217;s vice presidential pick. Unlike many, I&#8217;d heard of Sarah Palin before, mostly because she was in favour of drilling in ANWR.  Still, because of her relative lack of notoriety (and the fact she&#8217;d only been governor for two years), I thought McCain was going to choose a [...]]]></description>

It was also gratifying that Bill managed to surpass his wife: while she said all the right words in her address on Tuesday, it was done in such a way that one couldn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Democratic National Convention has kicked off in Denver, and apparently it&#8217;s gotten off to a brisk start. The reviews of the speeches by Michelle Obama, Senator Ted Kennedy and Nancy Pelosi suggest all have gone off without a hitch. No doubt, Michelle, Ted and Nancy breathed more easily once they got off the stage [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While I and many others are trying to grasp Obama&#8217;s reasoning behind his choice of Joe Biden as a running mate, it is worth mentioning that there is a certain logic to this for fans of &#8220;The West Wing&#8221;. It&#8217;s already been said that Barack Obama has similarities to the &#8220;West Wing&#8221; character of Matthew [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 1919, the Chicago White Sox, one of the greatest baseball teams in American history, conspired with a series of gamblers to throw the World Series to the Cincinnati Reds. They did it for money: the owner of the Sox, Charles Comiskey, was notoriously stingy towards his players and incredibly self-righteous, and this combination proved [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The fuss made over Barack Obama&#8217;s suggestion that drivers should regularly check their tire pressure has been one of the 2008 campaign&#8217;s most amusing spectacles. After all, he&#8217;s not alone in saying this: the British government has given similar advice to motorists for years. However, this commonsensical idea is being portrayed as simple-minded: the answer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to Pew Research, 12% of the American electorate believe Barack Obama is a Muslim. This is in spite of the fact that every last piece of evidence suggests otherwise: Barack&#8217;s father was an athiest, as was his mother. The fact that he went to school in Indonesia with a bunch of Muslims does not [...]]]></description>

Because of this mixture, I sometimes am struck by the comparisons and contrasts that can be drawn between the two countries. Contrary to what some French thinkers may believe, there is [...]]]></description>

Last year, I&#8217;m told, the party involved a great deal of drinking under the stars, and saying things to senior managers and salespeople that inhibitions would otherwise forbid. In short, it&#8217;s a good time to be disruptive, perhaps [...]]]></description>
