of newsletters dating back to the 1980s that bore Paul's name and contained a string of racially charged statements.Paul has denied writing those statements and told Fox News last week that they made up just a tiny fraction of the newsletter content, which were devoted to monetary policy and other issues.Paul earlier had launched a tough ad against Gingrich accusing him of "serial hypocrisy," but Gingrich said the newsletters undercut his message."He's attacking me for serial hypocrisy and he spent 10 years earning money out of a newsletter that had his name, that he didn't notice," Gingrich said on CNN. "Now all I'm saying is I think he's got to come up with some very straight, very straight answers to get somebody to take him seriously."Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum also had some choice words for Paul on the campaign trail.On Tuesday, he described Paul as an unproductive member of Congress who is "left of Barack Obama" on national security.Texas Gov
though analysts say Kim Yong Un is on the path toward cementing his power and all moves in North Korea so far -- from titles giving him power over the ruling party and military and his leading position in the funeral procession, his age and inexperience leave questions about Kim's long-term prospects. Whereas his father was groomed for power for 20 years before taking over, the younger Kim has had fewer than two years.He also faces the huge challenges of running a country that struggles to feed its people even as it pursues a nuclear weapons program that has earned it international sanctions and condemndation.Kim Jong Il -- who led with absolute rule after his father Kim Il Sung's death in 1994, through a famine that killed hundreds of thousands and the controversial buildup of North Korea's nuclear and missile programs -- died of a heart attack Dec. 17 at age 69.Mourners in parkas lined the streets of Pyongyang, waving, stamping and crying as the convoy beari
up in the past months remain in jail.The Arab observers kicked off their one month mission in the violence-wracked country with a visit on Tuesday to Homs -- the first time Syria has allowed outside monitors to the city at the heart of the anti-government uprising.A local official in Homs told The Associated Press that four observers were in the city on Wednesday as well, touring various districts. He declined to give his details and spoke on condition of anonymity for security reasons.Syrian TV said observers toured several trouble spots in Homs including the neighborhoods of Bab Sbaa, Baba Amr, Inshaat and al-Muhajireen, adding they met with residents there.Homs residents said anti-government protesters were preparing for a second day of demonstrations, despite a massive security presence in the city."I can see riot police with shields and batons on main streets and intersections, they are everywhere," said one resident, speaking over the phone. He declined t

nd that allowing more visitors would put the nation at greater risk."Everybody would like to find a way to admit as many people as possible to visit here providing that they visit and then go home," said Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, an anti-immigration group based in Washington, D.C."A lot of consular officers underestimate how much people want to come and live here," she said.Nearly 7.6 million nonimmigrant visas were issued in 2001, compared with fewer than 6.5 million in 2010. The number of visa applicants also dropped sharply after 2001. Those combined forces pushed the U.S. share of global travelers down to 12 percent last year, from 17 percent before 2001.The proposed immigration overhaul has largely been driven by the U.S. Travel Association, the tourism industry's lobbying giant, and has been endorsed by business titans such as the National Retail Federation, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, and Walt
