The piece notes Rivers has dried out to the point of hospitalization after a severe drinking problem. Wilbur Mills of Arkansas, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, holds that post due to seniority from constant reelection, not talent or influence. It criticizes congressional seniority and the reluctance to police members as eroding public respect for politics as a profession.

A humorous dialog riffs on a death tied to heavy drinking and smoking. The speakers joke about Sinfornia's age near 117, the “wages of sin is death” line, and the idea that alcohol could preserve life.
