...Frank Freidel, Harvard University, author of a multi-volume biography of F.D.R.: "He elected to retain Government responsibility for the welfare of the people. This was his most significant accomplishment. It is what made it possible for Kennedy and Johnson to move forward. If one of the right-wing group had been elected, Kennedy and Johnson would have had to spend a lot of time recouping.

Female characters are given Ian Fleming labels with a touch of Li'l Abner: Polyester Poontang, Miss Maidenhead Fern, Trampolena Whambang and Miss Hope Climax. Jokes consist of lethal single entendres like "Heironymus lays them in the aisles," or Berle's remark as he rows a boat on a sandy beach: "I haven't passed water in three days." Between them, Newley rants some chants that are mislabeled songs, appears more naked than his victims, and plots along in the hope that some...
