		<description>This is indeed our most important political issue.  Hallmark laid off 750 people today.  This might have stopped that.</description>

		<description>Yeah, there definitely need to be more candy holidays between Easter and Halloween.  It just seems like an oversight to me.  To correct this oversight, I think a three-pronged approach would be best - 1. Contact your senator - ask him/her to create a new national holiday conducive to candy consumption (August has nothing.  Start there.)  2.  Contact Hallmark - they LOVE creating new holidays out of nothing, so they can sell more cards (Mother&#039;s day, Father&#039;s day, Grandparent&#039;s day, Administrative Assistant&#039;s day, Sweetest day, etc., etc., etc.)  3. Contact your major candy companies - put their powerful lobbyists in touch with your senators (I bet they could bribe them with candy - totally under the new Obama anti-lobbyist radar).</description>
