...after a delegate-wooing expedition to Mississippi, he headed back to Washington on Air Force One. His private lounge exuded more homey comfort than overwhelming power. Ford was in his shirtsleeves, filling and fiddling with his pipe. His olive was high and dry on the ice cubes at the bottom of his martini glass. The bulkheads were decorated with an array of David Kennerly's color photos of the Ford children. All that was missing to complete the scene was a cedar log crackling in a fireplace...
...Republican National Committee in the dark days of 1974, claimed that since Nixon said he was innocent, he (Bush) had to support that contention. It was Vice President Gerald Ford who, not long before Nixon's house collapsed, told the nation: "I can say from the bottom of my heart, the President of the U.S. is innocent and he is right...
They buried him in the classic style. His body was sealed in an empty 55-gal. oil drum. Heavy chains were coiled around the container, and holes were punched in the sides.

In part, this was because Miki could only enhance his image as the "Mr. Clean" of Japanese politics by giving free reign to the Lockheed prosecutors, while his longtime...
...chairman and vice-chairman of various Felker publishing companies. Glaser's work is appropriately glossy--with the ever-legitimizing Marlboro Man on the back cover and an uninspired Spiro Agnew elongation on the front, plus a new logo without the brackets--since [MORE] is what reporters type at the bottom of pages in an unfinished story and thus is unsuited for a multi-media mag. Everything inside comes in boxes, sort of like a Kellogg's Snack Pack. Your eyes get stuck in these armored safes of print, where everything is lined off, column from column, picture from print, headline...
