The Administration has come down on both sides of legislation to aid debt-ridden New York City, to permit a single picketing union to shut down an entire construction project, to strengthen antitrust laws, to reduce income taxes. When his since-departed campaign manager, Bo Callaway, greased the skids for Nelson Rockefeller's slide from the 1976 Ford ticket, the President's silence made him appear weak or devious...
