...family people are put off by some feminists who dismiss abortions as mere bodily functions. They are equally unsettled by the pervasive bias of the women's movement toward Big Government. Pro-family forces would rather rely on the private sector and their own initiative?that would furnish more positive proof that women have finally arrived in America...
Cohen deserves high praise for summoning the courage to take on the University and triggering HEW's first full-scale audit of the University's administration of federal contracts received over the last three years. Harvard must now furnish to the University community and HEW all information in its possession relating to the examples of research grant misuse cited in the O'Brien letter in order to clear up doubts raised as to the efficiency and propriety of Harvard's handling of government monies. University Hall has promised to publish a financial administration manual this fall explaining in explicit detail...
...complete account by Helms as government witness rather than defendant might yet salvage a bit of legitimacy for the leniency recently shown him. Given the suspended sentence meted out to Helms and his retention of pension rights despite his no contest plea, such cooperation with the government would furnish some limited evidence that Helms indeed recognizes the gravity of his misdeeds.

Nixon, uniquely, did all of those things-and more. He also cheated massively on his income tax, used federal funds to furnish personal residences, told his aides in effect to lie to grand juries, altered (and probably destroyed) evidence in a criminal case, lied to the top Justice Department officials investigating those crimes, ordered the payment of hush money to convicted criminals, offered a prestigious job to a judge who was presiding...
