		<description><![CDATA[About once a week, I visit my favorite liberal propaganda website to reinforce many of my political opinions. One of the articles this week was about the debate over marijuana legalization. It was definitely written from the anti-prohibition viewpoint, so my thoughts were very nicely echoed. It was then that I realized that I&#8217;ve never [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been avoiding doing a post on California&#8217;s Proposition 8 for two reasons. First, I&#8217;m not a Californian. While I certainly have on opinion about it, it was not my state constitution that was up for amending. Second, I tend not to blog about news items that get plenty of coverage in other blogs. That&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Last week, I saw this advertisement paid for by the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC). I write a letter. Later that same day, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The New Yorker has a fascinating article about differing views on human sexuality between conservatives and liberals. While there&#8217;s not much too terribly new in it (we already know liberals take a realistic approach to human sexuality that emphasizes family planning where conservatives want to dominate human sexuality through fear and misinformation), it&#8217;s well written [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a previeous post, I promised to write about a rebuttal to Jonathan Haidt&#8217;s model of human morality. The one I found most interesting was from Norm Doering. Haidt is trying to demonstrate that liberal morality is more contracted than conservatives. In particular, he describes five foundations of morality of which, liberals only concern themselves [...]]]></description>

This week&#8217;s eSkeptic linked to an article on one of my favorite sites, Edge.org, by one of my favorite thinkers, Jonathan Haidt. Needless to say, I was excited. I blogged about Haidt in the past. Some of you may even remember the moral [...]]]></description>

Tolerance for those different from us is a quintessential element of our liberal form of government prized by most of the West for the past 200 years. It was first [...]]]></description>
