...tubs of Shiner Bock beer until a congressional aide tossed us out." All of Philadelphia was a party--and it was difficult not to stumble over famous feet. Says Frank: "Richard Roundtree--the original Shaft--sat on the couch watching John McCain at the podium. I spoke to Trent Lott, Jerry Falwell and Bob Livingston within an hour. George Stephanopoulos backed into me and apologized." One of the rare times he'll ever do that...
...Shemya, on the westernmost tip of Alaska. But he might hold off actual construction, technically avoiding a breach of the ABM treaty while keeping the U.S. on a timetable to build NMD before any "states of concern" are projected to have long-range missiles. Senate majority leader Trent Lott has indicated that he wouldn't mind seeing the NMD decision put off until the next Administration.

Cuba "is the only remaining communist country in the world except for North Korea," Lott maintained, and "Castro has shown no repentance; he's running a dictatorship, a repressive dictatorship." There is, of course, no disputing the argument that China's communist leadership has, over two decades of trade with the U.S., enthusiastically embraced economic reform, while Cuba's has for the most part fiercely resisted it even while welcoming...
