...Democrats would do better to unleash all their venom on Reagan's henchmen, many of whom are grossly unqualified and do not share the President's vencer of personal unassailability. James G. Watt is the leading example: Caspar W. Weinberger '38 and Margaret Heckler are others And it's about time someone went to town on National Security Advisor William Clark, a foreign affairs novice who, according to Newsweek, "is commonly judged a 'disaster...
...streets, probably they will be in both places anyway However, anyone seeing Petta Kelly, one of the Greens "non-leader" leaders on CBS's "60 Minutes" several weeks ago may well wonder about the direction of this party.

Those few conciliatory words quickly give way to an embittered and cautionary recollection of the Gulf of Sidra dogfight in which he lost two planes just a year ago this week. "The Gulf of Sidra is Libyan territorial waters [a claim the U.S. and most other countries do not accept] , so it was the U.S., not our side, that used force there. We would rather negotiate with America, but we find ourselves compelled to use force...
