...What?s troubling Merletti so is the number of indiscretions from Agent Tony Sherman in Hersh?s controversial Kennedy expose ?The Dark Side of Camelot.? Try this quote for size: ?You were on the most elite assignment in the Secret Service and you were there watching an elevator or a door because the president was inside with two hookers.?

She's talking about the visitors--some of them doing their holiday shopping--who wait for the gallery to open each day. Darren Check, a law student at Temple...
...this year. The question is not whether we will deny most-favored-nation trade status to China because of its human-rights abuses but how long America will be punished for speaking out about them. Will China ever grant American imports the equivalent of most-favored-nation status? BRAD SHERMAN, U.S. Representative 24th District, California Washington...
