		<description><![CDATA[An interesting series from James Fallows of The Atlantic covers Obama&#8217;s trip to Asia, or more specifically the US media&#8217;s coverage of the trip. It is making me reconsider some of yesterday&#8217;s criticisms of how the Obama administration has been handling human rights issues.

This appears to be the second statement to come out of the EP concerning the events at Bat Nha over the last several months, covered early on by Matt Steinglass of GlobalPost. In its resolution, the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sitting outside at the hospital, having already had my fill of caffeine and lunch, in the sunshine. My mind has been on events in Iran; popular uprisings like this always capture my attention, but this one is quite personal.

The true fascination comes when looking at posters that reflect the major political issues of the day; they sound remarkably familiar. I especially recommend the section [...]]]></description>
