...painful matter. I always have this map with me. ((He shows map with U.S. bases encircling the Soviet Union.)) This is the way the U.S. has surrounded the Soviet Union; more than half a million American troops and aircraft are deployed there. The system was shaped at the end of the 1940s and 1950s and has its own history, but nowadays there are no grounds to have bases that threaten us. It is time that the U.S. think it over. In a number of countries, troops are deployed because of the results of World War II. We should agree...
...Wooh! Wooh!" He races over to bandleader Michael Wolff and greets him by touching index fingers. (No old-fashioned high-fives on The Arsenio Hall Show.) He bounds in and out of the audience, paying special attention to the folks in the bad seats behind the band. By the end of his opening monologue, the crowd is wired.

This one feels anticlimactic, void of release. So does the end of an affair, an event McNally chronicles with specific detail and authentic, universal pain...
...began by taking on Premier Li Peng, whom he had pointedly not asked to meet. In a private session, Nixon reportedly deleted no vitriolics in expressing American outrage over the regime's crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators last June. To end the current impasse, he suggested, the two nations should halt their recriminations and propose mutual talking points. He threw out the first one: "When I go to the embassy, I hope there will not be guards with AK-47s outside." Li retorted that the troops had been posted there to prevent the escape of dissident Fang Lizhi...
