...Moscow this month as Secretary of State, did not think so. "Détente does exist today," he told a press conference in Washington last week, "and I believe and hope it will continue." Despite their protests over Western "interference," Vance added, Soviet leaders have shown "a continuing deep and abiding interest" in reaching agreements on arms control, trade and other issues with the U.S. Western analysts, and diplomats generally, agree that the dispute over human rights resembles a skirmish on a long cease-fire line. Says one Kremlin watcher: "There does seem to be a fairly sharp distinction between...
Watergate am Rhine. The quest for the answer exploded last week in a Watergate-style scandal that aroused deep-seated German concern other than that of nuclear annihilation. The weekly newsmagazine Der Spiegel disclosed that agents of the Verfassungsschutz (federal office for the protection of the constitution) had broken into Traube's home near Cologne last year, photographed his letters and documents and planted a bugging device. After failing to discover any guilt in his associations, the agents surreptitiously entered Traube's house a second time two months later to remove the bug. These legally questionable acts evoked...
...American technological wilderness, and the paranoia he evokes is at home under the shadow of the Science Center.

And although Carter has claimed all along that he has a deep concern for those suffering in other nations, his priorities seem to be similar to Ford's in the area of foreign policy. Carter favors a heavy emphasis on military spending ($120 billion) and minimal interest in food aid ($3-4 billion) and on Sunday, in response to a hostile question...
Paranoia runs around deep. When they come for the Birchers' guns, when the busts bust and the silicone rain falls, when the grand jury indictments all come up with your name, and the percentage of illegitimate pregnancies conceived while rock music is playing creeps over 90, then it's time to get out. Kerp and Trumbo be seein' you. (He writes so well.) Off we go, in our flying bunker, high over Boston, wingin our way into your hearts, homes, mind, and a better reward...
