		<description><![CDATA[Republicans ran in 2010 on a platform of small government. President Obama, they said, had overreached with Obamacare, and the only sensible reaction was to pare government back, and get it out of people&#8217;s lives.

The site can be edited by anyone, which is both a blessing or a curse, but it has created the largest encyclopedia in human history, covering vastly more territory than any company or organization possibly could.

Mark Kirk, R-Ill.; Joe Manchin, D-W.V.; Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. and Pat Toomey, R-Penn., background checks would be required for sales online and at gun shows, closing a significant loophole.
