I want to put it out as the frank memento for those who do not receive gifts.

This is the memento that put out something like 20,000 copies to lower-level staff people.

They can be personalized.

Some of them can be personalized and some not.

Okay, good.

This is before the Christmas tree lights.

This is in the mid-afternoon on a Sunday morning.

It's on Friday, Friday the 15th.

Right.

They want to let the press in just to take pictures of the receiving audience.

Photographers and reporters.

For the receiving audience, that's it.

He said, nobody can watch those.

Is that clear?

That's clear.

All right.

The next thing you say is, Kevin, in their normal reality, they're Kevin.

Yeah.

No, sir.

No.

Yeah, and then when you want to respond, check your eyes, respond to the question.

No, I don't.

Check your side.

We don't respond.

Yeah.

Well, Kevin is in there.

He's in there.

Now who is coming?

I've got to know where they are.

We're not going to go into too much detail.

I guess we're not going to get into too much detail.

We're not going to let you talk to me.

I have a question.

It's a great company.

I just love the impression.

So let me get my paper bags changed.

I think what I might do is to have, have, uh, come to the bottom again.

And part of that is forever.

Here we go.

He's the only one I'm talking to.

Damn, anyway.

I don't know what to say.

Last time we met at a party, I didn't have much to say to him.

I don't have comments.

And the surrogate's reception was on Tuesday the 19th.

That's sort of political anyway.

I would guess you don't want to press in on that.

Never.

I don't want to press in the House at all.

Or else I'll have to do a specific new group.

No reason for it.

All right.

But they will be out on Tuesday, Friday, before they go down.

Like the tree, that's going to be an exception.

You know, you're going to have a lot of questions.

But the men were working hard.

All right.

Ziegler is to do it solely by invitation.

He is to pick the pool.

He is deliberately to exclude the post photographer, the post reporter, deliberately.

He's to pick the pool.

Is that clear?

That means he's got to exclude other people as well, but they are always excluded.

Is that clear?

Also, he's excluded

We don't have enough room for all the cameras.

We used to exclude this.

We used to exclude that.

On the Kevin, I don't want them ever there.

On that one, they can invite three or four, two or three, but tell them we're just cutting the pools down, work it down.

Either no pool at all, if they can't cut it down, or cut it down so that we can have a friend in.

But wire service on it.

Wire service on it.

Just for the entry, a wire service moment shall be removed.

As a matter of fact, the way you should do it is you have a wire service moment and a post.

OK, let me explain why that's quite the way we have done here.

You put in a post, and there's a wire.

You can have a wire service moment.

The post is to be punched through.

And then you can have one special, but never get around to the post.

And the wire service moment, for example, for that event,

now that's the 19th is the last is what that service thing that's the service thing yeah you're going to get in the lives of the silver women people like that yeah

Well, just to be goddamn sure that that's there on the list, all of those people, they don't have to have had the title serving either, if they were out of work and so forth.

I understand.

That covers everyone who has been here prior to that date, which would be the cabinet-wise.

Yeah.

Well, I just want to go ahead.

I'm not going to do all this trouble.

Well, this is a short report.

Except that we try to get our ducks in the rows to where we stand now.

So he's going to go another round tomorrow at 3 o'clock.

That's right, sir.

And he hasn't got his cable back yet.

He hasn't got his cable back.

I've followed this so long with cables everywhere.

So we've got a hard time, you know, with all this stuff.

The real question now that was discussed last night is whether it will be cured, even if they want to settle it.

If they want to settle it, we'll get it.

If they want to settle it, then we're faced with a predicated proposition.

Let's get the goddamn thing over with and start blasting into the smithereens.

The plan is not going to be an asshole plan.

I'm more involuntary sometimes, but I said, we're going to have a plan of assistance.

I said, we're going to have a plan of assistance.

It's not a good choice.

Because I don't know how much it will change the situation.

Except at least we'll have some leverage when there's something they want to stop.

At the present time, they don't have anything they want to stop.

See, this is where we've gotten to with our fucking goddamn negotiations.

But not having done that, you realize,

I always said, never stop the bomb until we get an agreement.

Of course, we've always had one.

We've always had one.

In fact, we're trying to get improvements and hopefully have a second building.

And actually, it's interesting.

But I think that's the secret.

What should happen, you see.

Henry's intuition is probably right.

He's always said, don't let up.

Don't give anything until you get an agreement.

Now, however we did, we went just like the goddamn Johnson did.

That's the reason we're in such a lousy bargaining position today.

I wonder if we should just start bombing.

Let's think about that a little bit and throw that out of hand.

No, I think if we throw in a bit of a total stone wall, that's unreasoned.

Now, that would be an issue.

It's always violated.

You know that.

I know.

It's violated Korea.

What does anybody do about it?

You maintain 50,000 troops for...

Ten years of barbed wire, telescopes and the rest, and helicopters flying over and firing people from the matters of this world, elsewhere.

But this will be the worst.

We all know that.

Well, I just don't know whether we can get it across under the concessions now.

We've done that.

I'm afraid a lot of the things that have happened

working against our own deadline.

If they think we're anxious, they'll plan for all sorts.

Sometimes the very idea of saying, I've got a whole bunch of food later on, just doesn't look good on you.

You're hungry.

We don't have to be hungry.

Keep drinking.

Keep talking.

Never let them go.

They're keeping talking, but not doing anything.

And they do, and they do, and they move up, and they do, and that's the peril.

That may be a message to them.

That's not a message.

It's, you know, I thought it was a message.

That's the message.

That's the area of interest.

And I think if Henry comes back to the department and says, you know, it should be a recess.

Give both chances, decide the chance to recess their positions.

We don't say, I regret this or that.

We just start hitting on them.

You know, they say this is crazy, this or that.

Here in Washington, when you get over the high-bomb Hanoi area, they'll scream about the high-bomb Hanoi.

and all, it was an escalation, so it was the worst time since then.

So the people will say, so then the media people will say, well, what the hell is she doing?

That's the worst case.

I quite, quite consider that the same.

She doesn't reveal today, you know?

I thought there weren't too many hot issues left.

Well, all right, if there's a settlement tomorrow, then what happens?

Then, hey, hey, it was all on Wednesday.

I had a down-and-out meeting with him this morning.

Does he understand?

Heard his whole jackass and her out about this condition and that condition and the rest of it.

Give me his move.

I'll take you to him.

Absolutely.

No negotiation.

Tell the man what we're going to do.

Urge him to join us.

He doesn't seem very clear as well.

Now, I talked today to Jeff, the U.S. White House, just arrived in Washington, D.C.

He said, you know, I'm wrong, Mr. Clark.

I'm kidding.

I was thinking about it when you said something about what you thought about it.

I thought you were different.

So, I said, what are you starting to do?

You know, tell me.

And we hope that you will join us for the reasons that were outlined so carefully in the document.

We hope that you will join us for the reasons that were outlined so carefully

We all are going to be positive about this victory for our son.

Now he's, he firmly believes himself the vice president of the nation.

He's a part of the nation.

For the very reason that I think we're able to compare him to the political climate here on the South Shore.

To do what's necessary.

To fight a different kind of war.

Which is what this will be.

It's essentially to change the mix.

I mean the church can just go back to the old type of war.

But we got that water all packed for us.

Sure, we prepared to fight that one.

Yeah.

So now, what I wanted to raise, sir, is that White House just came out.

Oh, yeah.

I told him, he still didn't think what he missed three days on was travel.

And I told him, I don't sugar, I don't want to sugar.

I said, you're my friend.

You're the vice president.

You're my mom.

You're my dad.

I'm delighted.

I'm worried not to go.

I was only building the next house.

I mean, that's very important.

All right.

That's important.

Thank you very much.

And I said, you see, you see my feeling, I said, my feeling, I said, I thought we were dealing with the intractable Jew that got the problem done.

But if you look at that yellow message that she sent to me, Jew may have said, well, slow death rather than instant death.

If he said it, let it come along gracefully.

And then it may not be, but the announcement of the meeting with me, he does want that, doesn't he, or doesn't he?

with me.

That's not the time.

Oh, my, my.

I think that's the other one.

I still stick to the song.

But, uh, you know, but I think that's the other one.

And I thought you ought to ask it.

But anyway, Bunker comes back and says she feels it's best not to bring it up.

Henry says it's definitely not.

Well, Henry, if you understand, it's irrational about this because he's got all these black shoes

I'm sure that Q thinks he's a goddamn liar and denier.

He should never have seen those.

That was a mistake.

Well, now, understand, we know it.

And that's it.

You see, the moment that MJ becomes personal and hates Q, he belongs to everybody now.

In fact, that's why I don't like this wiretap.

That's right.

And at any rate, the way I see it, it's going to be better and better and better and better.

That's normal in St. Peter's and I won't make you look like a fucking drunk.

I said the other possible options were just to look like a man telling you that's the truth.

You don't want to be the president after being raped.

You don't want to be the president after being struck.

You don't want to be the president.

That's why I said that he makes two things a lot.

He makes the world a little longer.

and he said that's pretty well understood and I saw the reports that he was supposed to be a dyslexic and I saw that, I saw none of the dyslexia, but he thought she was in a spot and yeah, he's a child with dyslexia and that's what came out of it.

Well, they will have this answer from Walker and two others.

I think they'll have a great hard time.

But, I mean, now, I have no concern.

That's what we say today.

We say we need to change.

We don't want to escalate at this point.

We're not going.

I think that's a job that we can do.

We're working on it now.

That's all there is.

We're doing this job.

We're doing it well.

in his decision to put you down over the front.

She was a standpoint.

She was actually driving me.

I asked her, it looks like I sent my Stephanie over to the crushing.

She doesn't have a cell, so however long they're going to be going on.

We worked it out.

And I kept this thing in the center of my mind.

And I asked Stephanie, the other thing, the other thing I, you know, I, you're, you're down.

I said, first, I will see.

I said, we can put it properly.

Thank you.

I said, you know, I've sat on every card, and I know the broker's card.

I said, Henry, do you realize that two of those are the ones you are going to have on?

No way.

I'm actually looking for the end.

The sound is very, very close.

I'm watching.

I just don't understand what you're saying.

I just don't understand what you're talking about.

because we don't carry a lot of books.

We don't write technical books and all that.

I'm not just saying that.

No one had ever given him the impression that he's got to go out and close the satchel and come home.

He must have personally spent a lot of time on it.

He spent a lot of time on it.

As I recall, there was a situation that went on for a while.

I didn't know what was going to happen.

They don't want to know.

I was the red.

So you called them.

I called them and called them.

And they reported it.

And we had no instructions at all.

And they reported it up to the table and said, no, it's not going to change.

We're going to receive it.

They said, we're going to meet again tomorrow.

I said, that's good.

I said, all right.

I said, it's fine.

It'll work.

It's going to work.

I said, we already have it.

And I said, it's already out.

We're very anxious about this thing.

... ... ... ... ... ... ...

I think he believes, and with some justice, that they had a deadline during the election season.

Do you remember that?

They wanted to get you on the line, and the government had more concessions.

Using that deadline,

I mean, when did he get to throw?

When did that happen?

Oh, that was, he didn't even go there.

No, but after October 8th, he did an additional session after that.

Yeah.

He didn't have a meeting with an operator in the election.

When did he get the referral?

We finished the report for him on the 12th of October.

It was the 8th through the 12th.

Alright.

Then he came home, and then we went back to the office.

We went back to the office for two weeks.

Third.

Back to third.

Another week.

That went on.

The way it got hype.

That was hype.

Then, for the last second, I got a program.

I'll come again.

I'll say it again.

Then?

Then we go back to Paris.

Yeah.

12, 22.

When did that happen?

When did you get those numbers?

Before the election.

Yeah, okay.

Great.

All after the election.

Where does October 26 come from?

Well, he uses that figure instead of October 8 or October 11 or 12.

because it was October 26th, and the only public one stated that they were going to take effect today.

So now, and later on, we went back in after the change on this, and I went with the second.

We went back and tried to get some changes, presented a whole range of it.

You have to see, too,

after October 8th, before the 26th.

After the 26th.

On the 26th, we had the facts that we had to go another round.

That's right.

We had to go to changes.

We had to do that.

Then, come on, then we went to Paris again.

Then we went to Paris.

Then we got to... That's where they kept you from.

That's right.

But at the end of that period, they said, you're the one who did this problem.

God damn it, you're going to give us this, this, and this.

And they made a pulse here, and the program was taking away the, you know, that was the mass jury, the DMZ, right?

Then we broke off and came back.

And this was supposed to, this was the one more thing, right?

And we went back, went through that, and started getting more and more people.

It's always been reaffirmed on the end of the war.

But if I could let it be practiced and reaffirmed, it would be much more than that.

Except for the one Saturday.

There it is.

Except for the one Saturday.

Just as you can see in that phrase, they wanted to end the phrase and accept the matter as it is.

All right, that's accepted.

Now, with that in mind, and we said, all right, we'll leave the country working on it.

Well, actually, because they have over 600 of us, and I was going to do this one.

And so we put technicians to work on Sunday.

We met today, and according to him, he did a very good job.

Both on the DMC issue and I guess some other kind of weathering has come out of the technical process.

We did the public eye work, you know.

Instead of at all, we know we can do this again.

We know we can get it done.

It's done.

We know we can get it done.

and we should bring it as a message from us and actually transmit it.

Transmit it.

He thinks that it's just one simple e-commerce.

It goes from morning to Moscow, Moscow, to New York, to New York, to Paris.

And this is just like, it talks about errors, Moscow, about errors, and so forth.

that I'll focus on in the score file area of this place.

And so what we're going to do is we're going to apply the law to the score area of this company.

If there was any event that had been done by it.

The best thing to do is to send.

That's good.

That's right.

matter of fact, there isn't a god damn thing the vice president can say to them that I can say to them.

And then he's got the word now.

And he said, I just don't know.

I just don't know what he's going to come up with.

I'm just going to say the hell with it.

We're going to go along.

There ain't no way he can go along.

There's no way he can go along.

I know, I know, but that doesn't have anything to do with me.

I don't have any complications.

They're very conscious.

I do think the police probably have a case in front of them.

Well, that's the point I was going to make.

That's the point I was going to make.

We've gone through the hawks, we've got the chiefs and all the rest.

We're ready to take it on to the battle line.

And I'm excited for the President's class too.

Come along early on.

One question I've been asked, do you want to eat?

Do you want to eat or not?

It's a very tight schedule.

You can divide it into two, or it can be split.

All right, good job.

Good morning.

I'm going to turn it off now.

Who would then take off the antidepressant?

I'm going to turn it on.

I came back Friday.

Back here Friday.

In fact, I came in the same day.

I don't know what time it is right now.

I don't know.

It's too much to ask.

I don't know.

And if the guy we lose a day, if there's a difference

and we were sent to Sullivan where they were straightened and ordered to the side ground and she wanted us to stop there first.

We had to go to Prestige, but I needed to go to the side ground first.

I got up there and I went back to the side ground and I was there for Sullivan.

I didn't want to miss too much ground.

I let the others run Sullivan.

I let Sullivan do the others.

in the east coast of the Ohio River, and back to Stuttgart.

We got in trouble with it.

We had no idea why.

It wasn't sort of a way of ensuring that we would license it up for us.

When did we get him back here?

The third day.

And that's the highlight.

There, after that, I'll work with the Holy Church.

The silent part of the commandment of the Holy Church is coming back.

It will be coming back.

That will be very important.

We, as a congregation of the Holy Church,

Governor Rockefeller promised not to do it.

I heard what they said this morning, that some depression is what it was.

It adds up to the return of the POW.

I think it's a great idea, but we just can't get Bob Holden and people like that.

We welcome them.

We keep the God damn volunteers and the people in other places.

I would play.

The Russians know that although they have, although we have very little choice, they know we have some choice.

They know that they just don't want us.

I'm sitting here and I don't know.

I don't know.

So be it.

I'm not going to lose this goddamn war.

That's it.

Everybody thought I had

And for us to be able to come and return

Then we're going to put it there on the active center.

We don't have to do that.

We're going to put it down there.

Then we're going to put it here.

Okay.

We're going to put it on the active center.

We're going to put it down there.

They're doing well, but they're, both sides have a realization that this is going to come to an end.

As a consequence of the accident, the buddy wants to do the last, the last shot.

They're fighting on the trail, and they're fighting for it.

They aren't very secure, but they're fighting for it.

They're fighting to stop it.

I just dropped a couple of them on the railroad up there or something.

Well, I figured I'd be able to get the rest of them.

Because if I buy it for the next round,

All right.

Without breaking up the talk, some of this is gratifying.

You take a recent, take a recent, and we've got, of course, a recess over Christmas, and there was an operation, and who would take it?

Now, I understand some of that, but that's, that ain't easy to close track.

We've got to get it done.

We've got to get it done because, you know, the... You know, Joe had his damn map.

Everything is important.

You just can't let that block us out on everything else.

You've just got to...

There comes a time.

There just comes a time.

But, and may I say, I wouldn't be so anxious to settle if we hadn't done May.

But May proved, like Charlotte and I know, she said, she said it's time to end, and Charlotte ended, and so forth and so on.

And that's even all that's going on.

She said, she said, you know what?

She said, you demonstrate on May that you would go the last mile, and she said, you stand right now, and I'll do it for you.

That's right.

I think they're going to have it.
