Moynihan's bitterest critics today are doctrinaire liberals who still regard his sojourn in the Nixon White House as treasonous fraternizing with the enemy. "He has no ideological underpinnings," complains a Moynihan colleague from Harvard's Kennedy Institute of Politics. "He is not unlike Kissinger. They both have enormous egos, tremendous ambition, a great deal of moral flexibility, and the same kind of little boy attitude?'Look, Ma, I'm dancing.' "Other critics feel that Moynihan is so intoxicated by ideas that he is apt to skitter along from one to another. Moynihan in turn has spoken scathingly...

Ledesma says that while he finds some church doctrines (such as eating in moderation) make a lot of sense, he follows them "only as well as I can.

And no longer does the traveler have to belong to a so-called affinity group, such as a club or union, to qualify for the reduced rates. The new package is often less than the price...
...house is the temple itself, supporting the Star of Bethlehem, mechanical of course, proclaiming its message to the world. Most people, including L.S., label the display "garish" or even "obscene," but I, as a member of the heathens to whom it is directed, find it absolutely enchanting. With no regard for cost, this gentleman kept up the display into January. But even after it was taken down and packed away for the next pursuit of the millenium, the traffic signs the police department had thoughtfully placed remained. To avoid accidents caused by gawking motorists, Christians and heathens alike, the yellow...
