         <link>http://www.sheword.com/news/obscenity-a-real-crime-or-a-political-tool-/</link>
         <description><![CDATA[
Obscenity, as it currently applies to the legal system, is a subjective, haphazardly applied concept. It is not conducive to maintaining harmonious behavior, but only to feed the political machine in its attempt to establish moral high ground over the opposition. The obscenity law is one which has focused solely on pornography. It has attempted to censor the freedom of expression that we, as Americans, are entitled to enjoy. Through the method of comparative case study research, I have...]]></description>

In a country where movie violence and gore is the norm, and where boys are encouraged to prove their masculinity with firearms and conflict, and children as young as 14 are recruited for the Junior ROTC Military program... in a country where the indoctrination of patriotic atrocities and criminal aggression is the norm, someone please tell me why we make such a big deal about a guy wearing a skirt.

         <description><![CDATA[The problem with marriage is divorce. Not that it happens, but that it's too hard to do. There are legal entanglements, financial strait jackets and court hearings. There is familial ostracism, public scrutiny and social stigma. There are all of these things to consider when getting a divorce – and none of them are considered before marriage. The only important thing in a marriage is love.. right? This concept of the practice would make perfect sense if it wasn't for one tiny drawback: marriage...]]></description>

How many times have you heard someone say that the key to marriage is compromise? Compromise, as in: “Let's stay together for the sake of the children,” or “Let's stay together for the sake of the marriage,”? How about for Pete's sake? Staying together for the sake of the marriage is a contradictory statement all on its own because there isn't a “marriage” for the sake of which to stay together if your only reason for staying together is the pretense of its existence. Follow me? In...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[I have recently found myself lazily perusing the reality shows and easy-to-digest gossip news channels, as I have been trying to limit my intake of negative programming. This has been an attempt on my part to exist more peacefully in a world filled with conflict and chaos. I do realize that, though enjoyable, the fashion and makeover shows promote self-hatred and are innately offensive to any self-respecting feminist and/or non-conformist, but I attempt to ignore the blatant oppression of...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[The “wall” between Waters and his band mates caused a rift, there is no doubt. Waters was a solitary creature whose obsession with his music created a barrier between himself and those who could not share in his madness. But, in Water’s opinion, his band mates never fully appreciated his dedication to the social commentary he felt was so essential to his art. They never comprehended the imperative nature of the questions he felt were mandatory to ask society. He created masterpieces in his...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[“We have overcome the scourge of race,” says Ward Connerly, African-American founder and chairman of the American Civil Rights Institution. Connerly is a well-known anti-affirmative action activist who was more than delighted at the achievement of ballot initiatives for Nebraska and Colorado to “ban discrimination against or granting preferential treatment to people based on race, ethnicity, color, sex, or national origin”. Unfortunately for him and other anti-affirmative activists, the...]]></description>
