H: It moves the lightening over.
K: No because we will have to go into it. It will for 2 days but after that we will
be in it. Those people have already killed Johnson. That;s not what they are
after. People who are worreid about the next 3 days are missing it. It's after
the next 3 weeks to see these guys stood up for something. I think it's a f
profound moral issue.
H: I don't see how any President can weazel on this.
K: Or play it as a tactical issue. The President owes it for the continuity of
govt. to protect his predecessor against this. Naughton was a flaming dove and
I despised him for what I thought was unpatriotic and now he appears as a hawk
and he was killed with his family and it's not right.
H: On the trip the President said kelshould do what kwhe I want. Is he xakx
relaxed about it?
K: Totally. I raised the point where we started. I said in your view and ours
it didn't enhance your credibility with him when we needed it as a free rider.
I made it plain that if he preferred it, you would go without question and he said
he would abide by our judgment.
H: I will then pull off Korea end too.
K: That I wouldn't do.
H:
K No?
K: Then he would think you are avoiding identification with him. He had a
bright idea and you refused many part of it. I can see why you don't feel needed
for the primary objective of the inauguration but I wix would go.
H: I will do tk it. I wanted to run it past you. I thought the object we have in
mind is not achievable in this way.
K: I agree but you should play the game partly his way. You will not bring
pressure on Texas.
H: The call was cancelled.
