...declining, according to DEA information that agency chief Bonner apparently did not note. Attorney General William Barr, though, has been "slamming the table," say critics, in support of Bonner. Barr may be Bonner's last line of defense. DEA agents, who call their boss "Marco Polo" for his habit of official travel to exotic climes, have been scratching their heads over the plan.

A blindingly fast typist, he would write one perfect paragraph per page and then rearrange the order of the pages until he got the story structure right.

As Vice President, Bush despised the Republican political consultant's habit of dumping on g.o.p. candidates who performed poorly in public. Two years ago, Bush tried to have Rollins fired after he urged Republican congressional candidates by fax to "oppose the President" and his support for a 1990 tax increase. Four months ago, when Bush needed to shore up his political position, he hired Rollins' wife rather than the veteran White House operative. Relations began to warm three weeks ago when, according to a senior Administration official, Rollins sent...

...father, as some disgruntled former associates and relatives claim. He also seems a long way from the rocker who scandalized the world by admitting he had experimented with LSD, although there's no denying his repeated run-ins with the law over marijuana. Whether McCartney has given up that habit is debatable. He admits to only one vice: drinking Johnnie Walker Red Label Scotch and Classic Coke. "Four, and I'm anybody's," he jokes to friends...
