...Vice President's defenders note that he was preaching the power of faith long before it was cool, at least among Democrats. In his 1992 best-selling environmental book, Gore wrote of "a spiritual crisis in modern civilization that seems to be based on an emptiness at its center" and declared his own "unshakable belief in God as creator and sustainer." But as Gore is learning, it can be tricky--particularly for a Democrat--to bare his soul as part of a campaign roll-out. Which may be why he felt it necessary to summon religion writers to the White...
...repeat no, 1990s weapons in their inventory." Though China's procurement officials are easy to spot working the Paris Air Show and other military fests, they are mostly window shopping.

You can chat about it with others. You can get comfortable with the fundamentals as never before. And if it goes down, you can buy more rather than kick it out in a panic. If your tax situation permits, you can take a quick gain without...
...know you're in trouble when the Queen of Nice loses her cool over you on daytime TV. It didn't get any better for the N.R.A. the next day, when the news broke that a Georgia student had opened fire on his schoolmates on the one-month anniversary of the Littleton tragedy. Hours later the Senate approved the most significant gun-control proposals in six years, including a measure to require background checks for buyers at gun shows...
