...Italian living in France. I love Italy, and I am sad about what is happening there. It takes a non-Italian writer and magazine to report on things as they are in Italy, because who in the world would have the courage to call his country a "Land Without Shame" - or honor or heart? There is, however, plenty of material evidence that things are not so terrific in other countries either. But somehow finger pointing has always been easier than self-criticism, and shameful, despicable things always seem to happen elsewhere. Antonio Andriollo Grasse, France...
...American Way said his judicial philosophy "is far to the right." Sen. Charles Schumer, Democrat of New York, had a straight face as he called Alito "controversial," and said he has real questions about the judge's record on civil rights, women's rights and workers' rights.

My mom’s e-mail subject line was “Sad News.” After the initial surprise, I was a little upset that my family had only sent an e-mail. Of course, I didn’t expect my mom to call, but what about my dad or my sister? So I searched for a phone booth. I called...
...very disappointed with TIME's cover. I am so tired of people trying to force us all to accept homosexuality. It is really sad that you can't read a magazine, watch television or go to a movie without finding some form of homosexual innuendo. What is the deal? Are there no longer any morals? At what point will America stand up and say, No more...
