		<description><![CDATA[From TruthDig
By Chris Hedges
In celebrity culture we destroy what we worship. The commercial exploitation of Michael Jackson’s death was orchestrated by the corporate forces that rendered Jackson insane. Jackson, robbed of his childhood and surrounded by vultures that preyed on his fears and weaknesses, was so consumed by self-loathing he carved his African-American face into [...]]]></description>

By Joe Conason
It wasn&#8217;t surprising when, after seven months of legal wrangling, the Minnesota Supreme Court declared that Al Franken had won the 2008 Senate race against incumbent Norm Coleman. Still less surprising (although vastly more entertaining) was the simultaneous breakdown of nearly all of Franken&#8217;s adversaries on the right, whose regurgitated insults, whining [...]]]></description>

By Glenn Greenwald
There are several noteworthy developments since I wrote on Tuesday about the refusal of NPR&#8217;s Ombdusman, Alica Shepard, to be interviewed by me about NPR&#8217;s ban on using the word &#8220;torture&#8221; to describe the Bush administration&#8217;s interrogation tactics.  Given the utter vapidity of her rationale (&#8221;there are two sides to the [...]]]></description>

Wanna hear a good Holocaust joke? Or a rib-tickler about lynching? How about starving Ethiopians? You’ll bust a gut.
I spent an eerie couple of hours recently on the wrong side of the sicko line, checking out hate sites and hate jokes. What’s the difference between a dead dog in the [...]]]></description>

Stephen Johns, known as “Big John,” was opening the door for a man he thought was just an elderly visitor to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington when he was shot dead on Wednesday afternoon.

By Joe Conason
Acts of madness like the killing of George Tiller and Stephen T. Johns can be too easily dismissed as the work of disturbed individuals and then subsumed in the usual rumble of recrimination between left and right. But if we are to understand the deeper implications of those acts of murder, what [...]]]></description>

Back in April, there was a huge fuss over an internal report by the Department of Homeland Security warning that current conditions resemble those in the early 1990s — a time marked by an upsurge of right-wing extremism that culminated in the Oklahoma City bombing.
Conservatives were outraged. The chairman of [...]]]></description>

I poked around Washington Friday, talking with friends on the Hill who confirmed the worst: Big Pharma and Big Insurance are gaining ground in their campaign to kill the public option in the emerging healthcare bill.
You know why, of course. They don&#8217;t want a public option that would compete with private [...]]]></description>
