John McCain traveled to Kiev in December, he told the crowd of 200,000 on Independence Square: "The free world is with you, America is with you, I am with you."</p>

Roman Catholic, Anti-Communist Republican classic movie director Leo McCarey's "Once Upon A Honeymoon"(1942) with Republican movie superstars Ginger Rogers & Cary Grant. is airing on TCM on Monday morning. From its title, stars & director one might think it's a light romantic comedy like Grant's "The Awful Truth" and Miss Rogers' "It Had to Be You." And while it's partly in that genre, it's also a WII spy adveture. It's loads of fun to watch if you're a fan of Ginger, Cary, Walter Slezak(as Ginger's villainous Nazi husband), McCarey or 1940s WWII propaganda films. It also provides evidence that there...

Indeed, for most of the 1980s the political discourse in our country over how America would meet the challenge of confronting a dying and desperate...

WOLFEBORO — A 17-year-old New Durham junior refuses to let an indefinite suspension from high school prohibit him from expressing himself. Paul Hendrickson, of Old Bay Road, received the punishment two weeks ago for wearing an arm patch with a crossed-out swastika to Kingswood Regional High School. The teen said Thursday he wasn’t trying to make a stance against any group, especially his school, but he was not willing to surrender his freedom of expression or speech.

Encouraged by groups like the Nation of Islam, black pride slogans have been appropriated for Palestinian...
