		<description><![CDATA[Libya, a nation in name only, is in the early stages of a tribally driven and brutal civil war.  But for all the comparisons between Colonel Gaddafi and the other ranter du jour, Charlie Sheen, there is very little that&#8217;s deranged about the Colonel. Indeed, he&#8217;s probably been prepared for the eventuality that Benghazi would [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was a reminder of the bad old days.  But it was today in Baghdad. Big suicide bomb, coordinated attacks on rescuers, dozens dead and wounded, and the customary &#8220;bears all the hallmarks of an Al Qaeda operation designed to ferment sectarian strife&#8221;.  It&#8217;s doubtful whether it had any effect on the tone of Robert [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Don&#8217;t ask why, but I just relistened to Dolly Parton&#8217;s song, &#8220;9 to 5&#8243; for the first time in many years. Even though it was written thirty years ago, it&#8217;s an anthem for the times we&#8217;re living in.
