		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Yes, we understand that most outside of the U.S. are massively ignorant about U.S. politics.&quot;

actually it is you who is ignorant about the politics of your own country. that is the only explanation for supporting a party that is so clearly corrupt, consistently advocating for corporatism/cronyism, advancing fiscal policies that are bankrupting your country (more tax cuts for the rich while raising taxes on the lower and middle classes and increasing an out-of-control military budget), waging war on women&#039;s rights, introducing creationism in the class room, introducing xenophobic immigration laws, hating on the president because he is black...the list goes on.
today&#039;s conservatives are rotten to the core and need to be stopped.]]></description>

No matter.  Hutchison retires at year&#039;s end, so she can go off to her padded cell.

I was glad to see someone from Bigelow finally invited to these hearings, although Mr. Gold could be a bit overbearing.  He&#039;s a lawyer and behaved like one.]]></description>
