K: I just wanted you to know I am seeing Herb Raplow. He wanted
five minutes worth of guidance for a year-end review.
Z: Great.
K: I thought you would have no djjections.
Z: None at all. When are you seeing him?
K: In about half an hour. And Schecter and Griffith from LIFE have
asked to see me briefly.
Z: Great. What time?
K: I forget. In the morning some time.
Z: Griffith also wants to see the President.
K: He won't see him.
Z: Why not?
K: Because he hates him. At least he told me that last year. But I
may be wrong. It's happened before,
rarely but it's happened.
Z: I just read my briefing. I think I did all right. Laird backed off.
They put a clarifying statement on that, saying he was referring to aggressive
actions. On ground combat I said the President has said under no circumstances
will we introduce ground combat forces into Cambodia. This is a rough business
and it's getting rougher.
K: Now they're playing for blood.
Z: November 6, 1972 is going to be a very wonderful time. Then we
can just concern ourselves with the things we have to do and not worry about this.
K: And I will be back at Harvard.
Z: You won't be back there. You are going to be the only Assistant to the
President for National Security Affairs who has hung in there for eight years.
K: Resigning three times a month.
