...attractive, workable alternatives to Administration proposals," Ford insists. "Our aim should be an affirmative and specific Republican legislative program for the 89th Congress, produced as early as possible in the session. We must stake out our positions independently of any preplanning with the Southern Democratic leadership so as to correct the frequently distorted image of a Republican-Southern Democratic coalition.

If the ratings are correct some 32 million people watch this show each week, in which the same sort of thing happens over and over again- something breaks, the girl's nose twitches, the film is run backwards, the broken object is whole again, tune in again next week, same time, same staple...
