		<description>Justice: As if fighting a war in Afghanistan isn't hard enough, ambitious global prosecutors have rolled into Kabul looking to charge U.S. troops. Intentional or not, such legalism will sap U.S. morale as it did in Vietnam.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AnExceptionalNation/~4/HBIfjE0UMAQ" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

		<description>President Obama has pledged to give us a government that works, rather than one that is based in ideology. Unfortunately, whenever his policies and policy directions are examined, it becomes clear that in Obamaland, what "works" is what fits the grand theories of Leftist ideology.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AnExceptionalNation/~4/aq7rpP7aJl0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

		<description>Last week while most of the media focused on President Obama's ABC infomercial on health care - until even the One was trumped by Michael Jackson's untimely death - Congress, led by Democrats since January of 2007, conducted a successful "stealth" attack on every American. At a little after 7 pm on Friday, June  26, 2009 the House of Representatives, by a vote of 219-212, passed HR 2454, the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009, alias Waxman-Markey, alias Cap and Trade. For those who haven't followed this, Cap and Trade is the scheme whereby the Federal Government Caps the amount of CO2 and other anthropogenic (human generated) gasses an entity can produce, but allows some entities to continue to pollute by purchasing and trading "Carbon Credits." On its face, this legislation is based on junk science - whatever your position on global warming, Earth's atmosphere simply does not recognize the political boundaries we.....&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AnExceptionalNation/~4/iRk6ANl9IpI" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

		<description>You&amp;#8217;d think we would have learned a big lesson from the energy policies of the 1970s and &amp;#8217;80s, which led to higher prices and long lines at the pump. But some members of Congress are proposing that we bring those policies back! At a time when we need as many energy resources as we can [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AnExceptionalNation/~4/Bo245vZTuno" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Finally, some out-of-the-box thinking! This is a plan that makes sense and will change the tax-spend-government solution mindset that has limited our ability to come up with effective solutions to our current economic mess &amp;#8230; I urge all to forward this link and write their representatives and the House and Senate leadership to support [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AnExceptionalNation/~4/y6SyztnBnTs" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
