		<description><![CDATA[The worst environmental disaster in American history. Ever since the Obama Administration came up with that handle for the Gulf oil spill it has reverberated through the media echo chamber. But, is it true? Not even close. Before we begin to separate hyperbole from fact, let’s keep in mind that the full environmental impact of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jerusalem mayor, Nir Barkat, recently announced plans to destroy more Palestinian homes in east Jerusalem to make way for a tourist center. This comes on the heels of the recent Israeli attack on a Turkish convoy that left 10 activists dead. And just last March, Israel announced that it is building more settlements in a Jewish [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The word of the month for this edition is vuvuzela. You know what it is, the annoying high-pitched buzz during the World Cup matches. Sounds of the vuvuzela have filled homes and restaurants across the world this summer. It’s really not a bad sport, this foreign football; it’s pretty much a combination of my two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don’t want to be insensitive. I really mean that. I understand that there are parents who go through struggles that I cannot even begin to understand. I’ve not had to deal with a special needs child and my heart goes out to those who have. Having said that, I do believe that there’s one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a difficult May for Middle Tennessee. As the waters have receded, families who were affected by the month’s storms are taking stock of the damage, tearing out Sheetrock and cleaning up debris. Seeing the devastation this storm wrought just breaks your heart. When we’ve gone through tornadoes, we know after just a few [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s no such thing as an anti-establishment politician. It&#8217;s an oxymoron and it’s like calling yourself the anti-church politician while preaching from the pulpit. Kentucky Senate candidate Rand Paul is often referred to as the anti-establishment candidate. But if elected to public office, he will became the establishment. That&#8217;s not to say that he&#8217;s like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OK, whomever left me the voicemail with a bunch of snippets from Mr. Rogers, if your desire was to confuse me, well it worked. If your desire was to get a recording of me all confused, well, the call went to voicemail, so no luck there. But I’ve played it quite a few times and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Forty years ago, the U.S. observed Earth Day for the first time. I was a student at MTSU at the time, and I helped to plan events to call attention to the challenges of the time: air pollution, toxic waste and the loss of wildlife. It was an uphill battle, but with cooperation and commitment [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a big surprise. A new Pew Research Center poll finds that 4 out of 5 Americans don&#8217;t trust Washington. I wonder why? Could it be that we&#8217;ve been lied to way too many times? Maybe it&#8217;s the $1.5 trillion deficit this year or the $12 trillion debt. It&#8217;s not all the Democrats&#8217; fault, of [...]]]></description>
