			<description><![CDATA[ Beloved New York City Mayor-For-Life Michael Bloomberg capped off another successful week with a huge victory parade down 5th Avenue to celebrate yet one more
overwhelming victory in the 2009 New York City Mayoral election.
<br>
<br>
Citizens swarmed the street hoping to touch the hem of his garment and were rewarded by that fabulous smile which can light up a whole city.
<br>
<br>
From young to old,  the citizenry enjoyed this special moment, which occurs only every few years.

			<description><![CDATA[ <br>
reading the comments on sfgate about newsom vacationing in hawaii, it&#39;s apparent that the boy mayor&#39;s days are numbered... Everyone hates him... but
mostly for incompetence, narcissism or spending so much (wasted) time trying to advance his own career...
<br>
<br>
there has been very little suggesting crookedness, whereas with willie brown, everyone knew he was a crook but such a clever crook that he would never be
caught...

oh, there was a little about treasure island... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ In perhaps one of the unlikliest pairings in San Francisco political history, new dads Gavin Newsom and Chris Daly have been spending time together exchanging
tips on parenting. The Bay Region Reporter has been allowed to attend a &quot;parenting class&quot; which both attended at the San Francisco JCC. Their
reporter asserts that both men sat together and exchanged the kind of pleasantries that most would have found unimaginable just a few short  months ago.

			<description><![CDATA[ <p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal">10) A spine tingling moment as early as the first day of the campaign when the meeting to discuss the
cancelled town hall that was in fact never scheduled in the first place resulted in the discovery that Newsom did not have a fresh starched shirt to wear that
particular day so Gavin refused to appear at the event that wasn&#39;t scheduled. The staff universally praised him on sticking to his principals.</p>

			<description><![CDATA[ One of the most disturbing turns of events happens when whacked out liberal policies are universally recognized as bad. Except by the people who promulgate
them. Instead of seeing that the bad policy is bad, liberals simply ignore the bad policies and keep them. But they dont stop there. They then invent NEW
policies to suddenly excuse impacts of the bad ones.<a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/10/26/BA381A9A9N.DTL"><br>

Well, this is welcome news, and it would be a major triumph for the Obama administration. Basically it&#39;s the same deal as before -Iran gets its uranium
