...himself (those given to psychohistory would argue that they amount to the same thing). Perhaps Nixon will grow old in America as a kind of strange, unregenerate presence viewed with indifference, curiosity or eventually the respect that is accorded, with a short laugh and an incredulous shake of the head, to the unrepentant survivor...
However, the Federal Reserve and the Administration must try to get along. The Fed cannot press a tight-money policy so far as to prevent the Treasury from borrowing enough to cover the budget deficit (that would mean Government failure to pay its bills, which would shake the whole financial structure), but it can foil Administration policy by being tight or loose. So every chairman becomes a nonofficial adviser to the President...
...SEEM to notice, or to care, that the new Nixon talks exactly like the old model--that the speech in Kentucky, for instance, rattled more sabres in a half-hour than the "get-tough" advisers to President Carter have managed to shake up in four months of trying. Nixon's Cold-War rhetoric, his simplistic approach to the problems of minorities, his bloody-axe technique of dealing with essential social services, make up the bewildering philosophy of a man rather remarkably frozen solid to the 1952 Republican platform. Even more bewildering, however, is that he has been able to mask...

Paragon Park is actually an okay amusement park, but stay away from the antique roller coaster; the wooden frame that supports it tends to shake a lot when the roller coaster goes over it, and the boards underneath tend to bang around a lot, and make all sorts of other noises that aren't in the contract. Of course, it's your life...
