...make the same declaration. Those who fail to get a clean bill of health from historians at the state archives, known as the Institute of National Remembrance, could be fired.

Some former dissidents, including ex-allies of the Kaczynskis, say the law - expected to be approved by the Polish Senate, which is controlled by the twins' Law and Justice Party and their coalition allies, and coming into effect later this...

Vice President Dick Cheney, for one, appears unmoved by the views of his daughter Mary, a lesbian whose outspoken support for gay rights hasn't kept him from consistently backing right-wing positions at odds with equality for gays. Sure, he broke with the President on a constitutional amendment against gay marriage, but his stance that each state should decide whether gays can marry is looking like a distinction without a difference: In the last month alone, courts have turned down arguments...
