Hugh Sidey/Mr. Kissinger
12:10 p.m., September 22, 1972
K:
What I think is killing him is that he's posing a threat to a lot of people
but he can't even hold his own.
S:
That's right, that's right.
K:
In this respect he's doing worse than Goldwater.
S:
Oh, yeah; oh, yeah, much worse, much worse I think, yeah.
I think it's really fundamental. I don't think any amount of registration
or money or television will help because I think it's in the soul and the
hearts of people, you know.
K:
Yeah. And that's why I think such things as Watergate doesn't catch on
because to face it would mean that they would have to draw a conclusion
they don't want to draw.
S:
Yeah, yeah. You're absolutely right. This guy, Yankaolovich (sp?),
said that the scandals or so called scandals just haven't made any dent
and that's because of this other.
K:
Amazing.
S:
Yeah. But it's fantastic. Okay, you might get another lease over there.
K:
(laughter) Well, the two don't necessarily go together. I mean, mine
and his.
S:
(laughter) Okay, Henry.
K:
Right, Hu
Bye. I'll see you next Friday.
S:
Yeah, Uh-humm. Be here for lunch.
K:
Right. Bye.
