K: I have a raging President on my hands. Wants you to background
this afternoon. Tilt it clearly towards Pakistan. Wants statement
we had ready yesterday out.
S: Does he know it's in George Bush's speech? Remember, you and I
put it in the speech.
K: Yes.
S: I will do whatever I am told.
K: The alternative is I will do it.
S: The Secretary is here. If he has no to objection I will do it.
K: We will transmit a Presidential Order without somebody saying the
Secretary has no objection.
S: What can I do. I am only an Assistant Secretary. I have got to
go up there if the Secretary agrees he will do it right away.
K: He wants to make sure X the basic facts come out right away.
S: This is why we put it in the George Bush speech. All the changes
last night we have edited including that one very strong paragraph where
you said war isn't the answer. I thought it was excellent.
K: OK. Well, now.
S: One or two things. Call the Secretary, or if you want me to go
upstairs.
K: Let me call the Secretary.
S: You will call him. OK.
