...increases in half by the end of 1972, and there are few details of the program available to quibble about. Connally, an undisputed expert at counting votes?and still a Democrat?offers this assessment: "At this stage there are no political shortcomings in the program that would justify a frontal attack. The critics are going to have to await any flaws." Adds Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield: "I think we should give the President every support we possibly can. We should not shoot from the hip, and we should forget politics...
...recently completed movie on the hard-drug scene called Clay Pigeons got a fast X, largely for using a four-letter word and several scenes of full female frontal nudity. Novice Director Tom Stern removed most, but not all, of the nudity and obscenity. The rating was changed to R. Stern tried for a GP, but the board balked at a bloody ax murder...
COMMON Cause, the newly-created people's lobby, exercises unique new methods for precipitating governmental change: a mixture of political guerrilla warfare by the membership and frontal assault by lobbyists in Washington.

John Gardner, founder of Common Cause, believes that there is no more effective means of making a politician act responsibly than by letting him feel that he is being watched...
Similar is the callousness with which Nelson treats the Indians he uses on screen. In the rape scenes, he gives us a lot of frontal nudity (which only became permissible in R films last year), all of it exploiting Indian women.

...style politics has three basic ingredients: money, organization, and votes. This season the money and organization belong to the guys in the black hats. Nixon-Agnew and Co. have launched a frontal assault to wrest the third ingredient, votes, away from its traditional owner, the Democratic party. If they are successful it will mean a major swing to the right for the United States, with the precise results of that swing left to anyone's guess. One thing is clear, however; if the Nixon-Agnew candidates are successful, the results will not be very pleasant for the Vietnamese, black people...
