		<description><![CDATA[Editorial
Last June, the Motion Picture Academy decided to add five more movies to the Best Picture category, bringing the number of Best Picture nominations up to ten. 
This is seen as a bit of stunning move since there have been five nominations since the 1944 Academy Awards. It is notable, however, that there used to [...]]]></description>

We are still only scratching the surface. We are still years behind, maybe even a whole century behind in accomplishing a peaceful society.

Gay marriage should be legalized in the United States because every citizen, whether straight or gay, is &#8220;created equal.&#8221; The United States is, undoubtedly, one of the few democratic countries that ensures its [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What grinds my gears is when people give me things they know I wouldn’t even want as gifts. In fact, I like receiving gifts, but not those that are considered a waste of space or just some crappy gifts a 3-year-old doesn’t even want.
I suppose gifts are to impress people and make people happy, not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A common accusation being tossed around by Republican leaders is that President Obama’s brand of change essentially robs us of our freedom. You may have heard it from Sarah Palin during the ’08 presidential campaign when she claimed that Obama supporters were anti-American. These accusations basically stem from the fact that Republicans hate taxes.
Theoretically, they [...]]]></description>

The Associated Student Government is in the process of presenting a campus-wide smoking ban to the Board of Trustees. As a smoker, I appreciate the privilege that my country, as well as my school, grants me by allowing me to smoke where I please, unless otherwise posted.
A smoking ban is another way to control people [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I disagree with the assertion that the N-word has the same type of stigma as the word “fag.”  Further, I do not believe African Americans are solely responsible for the plight of other minorities called derogatory names.
In the Mountaineer’s “What Grinds My Gears” article dated Wed., April 8, Albert Serna wrote that it is [...]]]></description>

As a naive 24-year-old, I dated a guy who said he fed milk to stray kittens every morning. He also said that he never masturbated. Those little white, laughable lies didn’t bother me much. However, when I found out he looked up “girls to have sex with in the local area” on my dorm room [...]]]></description>

Walking down the halls on campus you can hear a lot of conversations if you listen close enough, some of them a bit more lively than others. You can usually hear people call each other “fag” in a joking manner or use the word gay as a substitute for stupid. These people, I‘m sure, would [...]]]></description>
