Hello.
Yeah, hi.
How are you, sir?
I got a call from Marge Ackerman.
She said you'd want to know what cabinet members called.
I didn't know what it was about.
Yes, sir.
I took the calls from the cabinet members.
Of course, we've got five overseas and seven out of town.
But Conley called from Texas.
John Mitchell called from...
Kentucky.
He's down at the governor's house there, and I guess Rosemary's with him.
And Red Blunt called from Alabama.
Yes, sir.
Yeah, he thought it was great.
He had all kinds of plaudits for you and wanted very much to get through.
In fact, he helped for you.
And then Hardin called, and Richardson and Romney.
Now, sir, I wasn't going to be here in the morning, and I've got one bill that needs to be signed.
I guess we could get you to sign it right after that breakfast, unless you wanted to sign tonight.
I don't suppose you do.
Bring it over.
Bring it over.
Just loop them over.
All right, sir.
Yeah, or I'll get Huntsman to do it if I'm not going to be there.
Sure, sure, sure.
Okay, that's good.
Thank you.
