			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently I&#8217;ve heard several news commentators describe <strong>the folks who caused the current financial melt-down on Wall Street as VAMPIRES.</strong></p>
<p>How insulting! <strong>Even the most blood-sucking vampire among us has a lot more scruples than some of those Wall Street robber barons! (And certain politicians, I might add!)</strong> You insult all of us vampires when you compare us to THEM! <em>Pull-ease!</em></p>
<p>In the spirit of the public good, I&#8217;m offering my services: send those Wall Street types (and politicians) over to Castle Bachula for a weekend of, um, &#8220;tenderizing&#8221; and I&#8217;ll show them the meaning of &#8220;blood-sucking&#8221;!!</p>
<p>In the nicest possible way, of course. I&#8217;m famous for my, um, &#8220;hospitality&#8221;.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, have a nice night!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I watched the U.S. Presidential debates last night, and I must say I was very disappointed, very disappointed indeed. For all their talk about foreign policy, <strong>neither Barack Obama nor John McCain mentioned Transylvania even once!!</strong> I, for one, am tiring of the United States and indeed the entire world ignoring us vampires so completely.</p>
<p>(Of course I suppose that it doesn&#8217;t help that they keep sending ambassadors and those ambassadors keep disappearing.)</p>
<p>And both John McCain and Barach Obama are doing all they can to woo women voters, white blue-collar voters, black voters, etc. etc. etc., but <strong>what are they doing to woo the vampire voter?</strong> Nothing! Nada! Not a darn thing! <strong>How can both Republicans and Democrats simply pretend that we don&#8217;t exist?</strong> Don&#8217;t they want our votes? Don&#8217;t they care about the concerns of us vampires?</p>
<p>For example, I happen to know that <strong>many of my fellow-vampires who un-live in the United States are very concerned about Social Security</strong>. What will happen when the Social Security system goes broke three or four hundred years from now? They&#8217;ll still be relying on those Social Security checks every month to make their crypt payments!</p>
<p>And other retired vampires rely on food stamps to make the blood-bank withdrawals they so desperately need—do Americans <em>really</em> want these retired vampires to &#8220;go back to work&#8221;?</p>
