The President/Mr. Kissinger
7:05 p.m., January 16, 1973
P:
Well, I've just been thinking of it. I might just invite him on a
weekend to come to Camp David to have dinner with me. You might
tell him that.
K:
Okay.
P:
Don't you think that would be great.
K:
That would be very outstanding.
P:
You know what I mean, you see, I'll be up there anyway and I 11 say
you and he would come up on the helicopter and we'd have dinner and
have a little chat. He has been a great friend and by God, we're going
to reward our friends.
K:
Absolutely, absolutely.
P:
But now give me a rundown.
K:
Well, haven t h got it name by name but I know --
P:
But Timmons and you know
K:
The Congressional reaction, their only problem is to keep them from
going hog wild. And Scali tells me that the press
P:
Did you talk to Scali? Good. Don't be so suspicious of him not
to
use him, Henry.
K:
Oh, no, no, no. I thought --
P:
Use him.
K:
But he also felt that the danger was not -- was excessive enthusiasm
and that they would build -- but that has been deflated a bit now by
Ziegler saying I wouldn t go over this week, which was right.
P:
Good. Nothing before the Inauguration.
K:
That's right.
P:
Which is a very good thing. It shows it's not a trick.
K:
Exactly, exactly. And the press play is uniformly good. I have a list
of press calls which is literally two sheets long now.
