		<description><![CDATA[I believe as a moral issue that people shouldn&#8217;t really own intellectual property; though I&#8217;m not convinced that our founding fathers were wrong to include limited monopolies as an incentive to get greedy bastards people that wouldn&#8217;t normally share their ideas with society to do so. So while I don&#8217;t fully agree with everything on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A friend recently posted his opinions on California&#8217;s Proposition 8. I was going to post a comment on his site, but it got a little too lengthy, so I thought I&#8217;d explain here why I voted NO on Arizona&#8217;s proposition 102 in 2008; why in 2004, I also voted no on Utah&#8217;s Constitutional Amendment 3; [...]]]></description>

Here&#8217;s what someone I know recently said about media bias: &#8220;Yes the right has it’s [sic] share too, but not NEAR the [...]]]></description>
