...ULSIVENESS. "We will hear over and over again until November such words as 'impulsive,' 'trigger-happy,' 'imprudent,' 'hip-shooting' and the like. Now, I wonder if the really 'impulsive' and 'imprudent' President isn't the one who is so indecisive and vacillating that he has no policy at all-with the result that potential aggressors are prompted to move because they know we have no policy. However, I can assure you that I would not appoint anyone to the offices of Secretary of State or Secretary...
...pilots at the controls, shatters the morning calm with a roar of cranked-up motors and the whip-whip-whip of whirling rotors. In Quang Due province, the local American adviser, a Negro captain, jounces along a red-dust path in his familiar Jeep, packing a .45 on his hip and speaking Vietnamese with a Basin Street beat. In a sandbagged patrol base in Binh Duong province, a U.S. captain sprawls in a hammock, exhausted after a night's march, a carbine across his belly and a can of Schlitz in his hand.

Even his quick-draw, shoot-from-the-hip tendency has its defenders. "Truman shot from the hip," says Virginian Walter Conklin, a magazine production manager. "Kennedy did it against U.S. Steel. I think it's a very human frailty...
...hear them. They screech and honk with the aggressive dissonance of city traffic. They have the staccato beat of a pneumatic drill. The strident reds, blues, and yellows blare with neon. And the stray words that seem squiggled from a toothpaste tube onto his paintings are like the hip, harsh expletives that slum kids spew into the summer air. Davis had violence without anger, gaiety without abandon, and his paintings swing and jump with such durable joy that it is as if he had dipped his brush in some eternal fountain of youth...
