...have been making inroads. But while his verbal bravado may raise eyebrows, Sarkozy has plenty of company. Across Europe, immigration policy - whether devised to control legal or illegal flows or the separate issue of political asylum - is no longer seen as a marshy reservoir where far-right fringe parties toss cheap rhetoric to xenophobes. That changed after Sept. 11, and particularly after Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn, having suggested that the Netherlands was "full," was murdered in May 2002. Sarkozy's comments primed France for a divisive debate in the French National Assembly this week over a new, tougher...
...apparent downsizing, we should remember that this master thinker is too smart not to appreciate the singular power of his new office or the importance of John Paul?s legacy. Benedict does not want to toss away the hard-won leap in relevance for the papacy achieved by his predecessor: for unifying and purifying the Church, for preaching to the world, and for inspiring the masses.

...mostly poor farmers wearing straw cowboy hats and gaunt faces, their wives clutching cheap umbrellas to try to stay cool - are standing to hear Andr?s Manuel L?pez Obrador, the front-runner in Mexico's July 2 presidential race. L?pez, sporting thick garlands of orange and yellow marigolds that supporters toss around his neck at campaign stops, is the candidate of the leftist Democratic Revolution Party (PRD). Yet as much as the struggling campesinos enjoy hearing his lavish social welfare promises, they're more interested in his business plan - specifically, how he hopes to create Mexican jobs that will keep them...
...embroiled in a fraud scandal at work and has a girlfriend who is pushing for marriage. So we have the cop-with-something-to-prove and the mysterious British villain (actually, Clive Owen might be playing American—his accent is a bit hard to pin down); toss in a shady power broker (Jodie Foster), and you’ve got yourself a perfect Friday night crime thriller...
