The master plan was laid out months ago. Jack Kemp would give 200 rubber-chicken dinners (sometimes it's meatballs or just cocktai...ls) between Jan. 1, 1995, and Jan. l, 1996. What the plan did not say was that he would be expected to deliver the same lines, ingratiate himself to political hangers-on and, most humiliating of all, beg them for money.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Lisa Fremont: Surprise is the most important element of attack. And besides, you're not up on your private eye literature. When th...ey're in trouble it's always their girl Friday who gets them out of it. L.B. Jeffries: Well, is she the girl who saves him from the clutches of the seductive show girls and the over passionate daughters of the rich? Lisa Fremont: The same. L.B. Jeffries: That's the one, huh?

Why should not the knowledge, the skill, the expertness, the assiduity, and the spirited hazards of trade and commerce, when crown...ed with success, be entitled to give those flattering distinctions by which mankind are so universally captivated?

There is a certain jargon, which, in French, I should call un Persiflage d'Affaires, that a foreign Minister ought to be perfectly... master of, and may be used very advantageously at great entertainments, in mixed companies, and in all occasions where he must speak, and should say nothing.
