TELCON (Home)
Mr. Kissinger/Secretary Connally
December 5, 1971 (??)
K:
Mr. Secretary.
C:
Yes, sir.
K:
How are you?
C:
Fine; I believe I'm going to live.
K:
You believe you're gonna live?
C:
Yeah. My God, I tell you getting in from Rome on Friday night and
as you know we went to that National Symphony Ball and last night
I went to the Gridiron dinner and had to make a speech and we had
a brunch yesterday and then all our Texas guests left about one
o'clock today and by God, I went to sleep.
K:
(laughter) I bet you are; I bet you did.
C:
I've been a tired Indian but otherwise I feel great.
K:
A houseful of Texas guests is a handful by itself.
C:
That's right.
K:
Without having taken a trip.
C:
That's what I figure.
K:
John, I wanted to call you because the President is going to assemble
a group of the NSC tomorrow at 1:30 about the India-Pakistan situation
SO if you don't mind, why don't we have our lunch at the White House.
C:
That's fine; or we can cancel it,Henry, if you want to. You be busy
as hell; why don't we just cancel it?
K:
Well, because you will be over there anyway. No, I'll have 45 minutes
or SO.
C:
All right or we can do it anytime. I'll be at the White House anyway
SO hell that makes more sense; I'm going to be there till 12:15 or
SO. So when I leave the President's office, I'll just come right to your
office.
K:
Good, but in case I don't -- in case something happens that does make
-- cause either of us to cancel it.
