		<description><![CDATA[I was an active, committed Republican for 35 years. I worked in a Republican city administration; I ran for Congress as a Republican, and I was &#8220;mainstream&#8221; enough to win a four-person primary. That was in 1980. Over the years, the GOP drifed ever further from the principles that had attracted me. A principled concern with limiting the authority [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I left the Republican Party in 2000, after 35+ years of active participation, including stints as a precinct committeeperson, appointed government official and candidate for Congress. Despite that level of participation, a number of those in the party shrugged off my departure (or said &#8220;good riddance&#8221;) as the foreseeable decision of a &#8220;liberal&#8221; who had never really belonged. What they refused [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Senator Lindsay Graham is very conservative; however, he is not one of the extremist know-nothings currently attempting to turn the GOP into a religious/nationalist cult of some sort. And that fact&#8211;the fact that he is occasionally willing to work with&#8211;gasp!&#8211;Democrats&#8211;has led the S. Carolina Republican Party to censure him!  As many who read this blog know, I [...]]]></description>

He has been the recipient of numerous honors, including the Nobel Peace Prize. Recently, he objected to the use of pictures displaying Nazi atrocities on signs carried by &#8220;teabaggers&#8221; protesting healthcare reform&#8211;making the (obvious and reasonable) [...]]]></description>
