...good history lesson for the younger generation, which missed the biggest political scandal of the 20th century. President Richard Nixon and his top aides deliberately flouted the law and lived to regret it, largely because of former FBI official W. Mark Felt, a.k.a. Deep Throat. Revisionists like Pat Buchanan, a former member of Nixon's staff, who would have people believe that Felt, not Nixon, was the criminal, have in recent days geared up a propaganda machine that would have been the envy of the Kremlin during the cold war. Buchanan and friends are in denial, delusional or willfully deceptive...
...tactic the possibility that the U.S. might have to intervene directly in Nicaragua. Opponents of the Administration have warned for years that the contras are the forerunners of American troops. Now, just in the past few weeks, Reagan, Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger and White House Communications Director Patrick Buchanan have turned the argument around, invoking the specter of G.I.s in the jungle as something that no one wants to see but that might be required down the road if the Congress defies the President now. Sooner or later, they say, someone has to do to the Sandinistas what they...
...that might best be described as "shop before you drop." One National Security Council staffer raced around to gift shops the day before the talks began, explaining, "We don't know what will happen tomorrow. This may be our best chance to get away."

The ursine Buchanan also purchased a $300 porcelain polar bear for his wife. At the cash register, Rowny playfully solicited a discount by telling the salesclerk...
...Myron (Mike) Ullman wants you to think so. He has introduced new lines from Nicole Miller and Chris Madden to the mid-tier department-store, Internet and mail-order business while streamlining sales and launching a new "emotive advertising" campaign. "Mike's a marketing wizard," says analyst Bob Buchanan of A.G. Edwards & Sons. "He tells the customer that just because she doesn't make 100 grand a year doesn't mean she can't look good." Penney's earnings quadrupled in the first quarter over last year, to $172 million. Ullman's clearly doing something right...
...history is any judge, the outcome will be mixed. The Utah War was bloodless in the end. Buchanan did install his own Governor. And then he pardoned everyone in the state. All was forgiven, if not forgotten. --With reporting by Melissa August/ Washington, Nadia Mustafa/ New York and Maggie Sieger/ Chicago
