		<description><![CDATA[President-elect Obama is expected to appoint democratic lawyer Henry Rivera, to lead his FCC transition team.  Rivera served on the FCC from 1981 to 1985, and is a proponent of the &#8220;Fairness Doctrine&#8221; that was repealed in 1987.

		<description><![CDATA[Lewis Diuguid, a columnist writing for the Kansas City Star editorial page, accuses Senator John McCain of invoking the term &#8217;socialist&#8217;, an age-old racist moniker for &#8216;black&#8217;, to describe his opponent, Barack Obama.  Duiguid points to several historical examples to support his claim:

I asked in a previous post, &#8220;What did McCain do?&#8221;  As it turns out, he did a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the wee-hours of Sunday morning, Congress came together on a plan to bailout Wall Street.  We&#8217;re still giving them the money they&#8217;re asking for, but there seem to be a lot of strings attached:

The money would be parceled out in segments, with Paulson receiving $250 billion upon ratification of the plan, $100 billion [...]]]></description>
