					<description>These attract my thoughts, these DLC points of interest: "a war against Islamist radicals who would destroy our way of life; a global economic competition that demands we raise our game; and a quest for energy independence and efficiency that Al Gore has shown us could make or break our planet."

Only the phrasing of the last appeals to me.  A whole lot of the DLC's thinking does not appeal to me.  I am reading Three Cups of Tea, that conveys an intelligent way to approach Muslim cultures, rather than an aggressive and violent way.  I agree with Dennis Kucinich that the international trade agreements should be cancelled. They were made with only economic gain in mind, gain for a few.  They make me think of harvesting all from a sick cow before she last rolls her eyes in death.  We need a caring and environmentally sound trade approach, not one that encourages rape of the planet and demeaning treatment of most people as if they are slaves.</description>

					<description>Oh how right you are Al.  The DLC, New Labour in the UK these are the pathways to prosperity.  I dread that the democrats will overstate the power of the netroots and cave to far out lefty policy's and rhetoric.  Centre left works, poth policically (getting elected) and policywise (getting good things done that help ordinairy people)  Extreme leftyism works in neither area.  Keep up the good work Al.  The DLC is why I am supporting either Hillary or Bill Richardson</description>
