		<description><![CDATA[The question of the Ground Zero mosque is not a matter of “can” but “should.” Imam Rauf and his Muslim brethren can build their house of culture and worship at 51 Park Place, several blocks from the tomblike footprints of the Twin Towers &#8212; but should they?
Contrary to liberal insinuations, nobody doubts Rauf’s rights, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Racism, by its nature, stems from ignorance.  For that reason there is a touch of bitter irony when opponents of Arizona’s law SB 1070 call it, out of ignorance, racist.  I plan on shedding light on the merits of Arizona’s law and show why it is not the law many perceive. It retains [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sarah Palin may appear an earthy cookie-baker, but the cutesy provincialism neither advances nor represents conservatism.  Rather than garnering public trust, the hockey mom routine has made her primetime laughingstock.
The winks, insipid buzzphrases (&#8220;You betcha!&#8221;), and muddled policy perscriptions show Palin to be fatally flawed and not of, for, or by the real right.
Cursory [...]]]></description>

Not long ago, I was at a dinner with a couple; a professor and his wife.  When they discovered that I was a conservative, and that  on top of that I like Sarah Palin, the wife exclaimed: “Sarah Palin is a bitch! And I never, ever use that word.” This from a woman [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Greedy, money-grubbing, arrogant.  These are a few of the many insults bandied about by President Obama and his media allies to describe the scapegoat du jour: Wall Street bankers.
Similar epithets can be heard all over this campus, spat by aggrieved students and professors, their faces flushed with the venom of self-righteousness.  These loudmouths [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An acquaintance once said, &#8220;The more money I make, the less I care about people.&#8221;  This &#8216;insight,&#8217; he explained, informs his conservatism.
It was to me totally insensible.  Conservatives do not not care about people.  Opposition to welfarism and to the high taxes that end up funding dole programs do not signal a [...]]]></description>

Sixteen months later, here we are, with growing malaise and sinking approval ratings. Dude, where&#8217;s my change?
