Maher Hillary Equals France

Earlier this year, the Boston Globe got hold of an internal campaign document from GOP contender Mitt Romney, and a recurring strategy was to tie Democrats to the hated French. It said, in the Machiavellian code of the election huckster, “Hillary equals France,” and it envisioned bumper stickers that read FIRST, NOT FRANCE. Except for one thing: We’re not first. America isn’t ranked anywhere near first in anything except military might and snotty billionaires....

Mail Call An Ongoing Debate Over A Deadly Spree

A Saga of Evil As a longtime subscriber and faithful reader of your magazine, I am disappointed in your Nov. 4 cover (“The Sick World of the Snipers”). By choosing to publish the photo of the two sniper suspects, you’ve given them preference over the innocent victims and the many unsung heroes of this terrible episode. Your cover could have featured the victims or Police Chief Charles Moose and the other officials who worked tirelessly to bring this incident to an end, or the truck driver whose call resulted in the apprehension of the suspected individuals....

Mail Call Lights Out In America

Caught in the Dark Along with the rest of the world after September 11, I watched with awe and great respect as New Yorkers carried on their lives with dignity, generosity and resolve. I witnessed that same resolve and graciousness during the August blackout (“Heart of Darkness,” Aug. 25). We were in New York searching for an apartment for my daughter, who is attending graduate school there this fall. We had just gotten off the subway when the lights went out....

Making A Modern Day King And I

If attention to cultural detail makes a great epic, “Anna and the King’’ will be a blockbuster. Its creators insist that the movie, due out from Twentieth Century Fox at the end of the year, will be different from the musical about the charming but buffoonish Siamese king and the governess who melted his heart. This tale of English schoolteacher Anna Leonowens’s travels to Siam in 1862, where she taught in the royal court, will be far more historically accurate, the filmmakers say....

Last week’s rally was only the latest public outcry in the biggest fiscal crisis to hit Rhode Island since the Great Depression. Enraged depositors began protesting in early January, when the governor shut down 45 banks and credit unions after the failure of Rhode Island Share and Deposit Indemnity Corp. (RISDIC), the private insurance fund that covered the institutions. (As in similar crises in Ohio and Maryland, the Rhode Island fund crumbled after bailing out a troubled bank: Heritage Loan and Investment Co....
