		<description><![CDATA[And fuck you too, Bill Maher. I have no patience for anti-vaxers. They are directly responsible for killing kids, period. And if you buy into the anit-vax and don&#8217;t protect your kids, you are an ignorant, rotten parent. Period.  Don&#8217;t waste your time trying to explain yourself &#8211; I&#8217;ve heard it all.  I&#8217;m sure you [...]]]></description>

So you [...]]]></description>
