...roots of French political weakness are deep. Localism, distrust of authority, political cynicism, and historical issues (like clerical education) are imbedded in the French mind. These attitudes will not change until structural revisions in the Republic force them to. French politics must cease to be the national sport, and must command the serious and constructive attention of parliamentarians and electorate alike...
...Senate, the resolution got caught in a whirlpool of Democratic emotions: partisan zeal, dislike and distrust of Secretary of State Dulles, disillusionment with foreign aid, rankling anger at the Republicans for using the "peace" issue in last year's campaign. For fully a month, despite Ike's call for speed, Senate Democrats nitpicked their way through the resolution, pausing for rhetoric, savoring revenge as they harpooned Dulles at every opportunity (TIME, Jan. 28 et seq.).

He warned the protestors that their insubordination might well lead to expulsion from the union. Furthermore, even if the "dissenters" mustered a fourth of all the locals, as required by the Constitution to call a special convention, there would still be no such meeting.
