 Hello, President. Mr. President? Do you remember Dana? I'm sure you remember her. And we have a few people here that I'd like to meet. Steve Matthews is my second researcher. He's been a very instrumental grad, you know, of course. And Mark Levin has been my Chief of Staff. And he's done a great job. And you remember Carol Helene when she worked here? Hi. And of course, Cassie. Oh, Mr. President. Well. Want to do a family photo? All right. And then incorporate everyone? That would be very nice. Good. You're always pretty. You're red and green today. Okay. Thank you. And then maybe we can get one group shot with everybody? Yeah. Wouldn't be the entire thing. You want the family in that team? No? Sure. Sure. And you want to put the two reds on either side? Well, why don't you stand there? I'll stand like this there. All right. And the rest of you guys, get some of you over here. Basic black. And we're going to get everybody to smile, right? Okay. Thank you, Mr. President. And now, just a few souvenirs. Well, thank you. Thank you very much. Oh, that's very nice. Five individuals here that have a souvenir of that. These are key rings with the seal on them. Thank you, sir. Everybody has keys. Thank you. Well, thank you very much, Mr. President. I guess we'll have a few things to say in there, but I just want you to know how much I appreciate this chance for these people to be with you. Ed, for more than two decades, I've known you as an ally and advisor, and most of all, as a trusted friend. And you've served your country and our administration well and faithfully from its first day. I should say even before our first day, because it was you, Ed, who made possible the best-planned presidential transition our country has known. And in your tenure here at the White House, you provided leadership to our policy team as we set out on a momentous voyage to put this country back on the right course after a period of malaise. That was the word for it. Over the past three years, we've looked to you in the words of the oath of office many of us here have taken to see that the laws are faithfully executed. Your record at the helm of the Justice Department is one in which we can all take pride. Whether it is fighting illegal drug trafficking or international terrorism or recruiting sound judges to the bench, you set new standards of accomplishment. And of course, we haven't missed seeing you over here at the White House. You've chaired over 125 meetings of the Domestic Policy Council. And if you weren't busy enough already, you took on the chairmanship of the National Drug Policy Board. Ed, I'll miss you across from me at the cabinet table, but I don't plan to say farewell because I know you won't be far away and I intend to continue relying on your counsel. I can't stop without saying something that I know all of you are aware of. You've been through a hell on wheels here recently, and I always go to bed feeling guilty about that for you and the others because ever since we've been here there's been a lynch mob in action, and they pick somebody out and they go after them, and I know it's in an effort to get here at the whole administration that they're doing that, so I feel guilty about it and that you have to take that punishment. But it follows on. There was a very fine secretary of labor, a gentleman, and all of a sudden he was gone and then found totally innocent of every charge that had been raised. And then there was Jim Beggs at NASA, the same thing, and found totally innocent. But then I've always figured that most lynch mobs aren't hanging the right people anyway. I'm just in for the hanging. You've got a record there in the Justice Department that tops anything that the Justice Department has been able to boast about for many, many years and in a number of different fields, whether it was going, declaring war on the mafia as you did and bringing them up, more settling of cases of discrimination than any other administration or any other Department of Justice under other administrations has ever done. And it goes on down the line with all of those. So I was glad last night on television to see you and some of your folks getting together yesterday morning, and I think it was wonderful and it was due to you. And I just want to thank you and Ursula from the bottom of my heart. God bless you and your family. I can't think of a better way to end my service to the federal government right now than those kind words of yours to be here in the Roosevelt Room with this group of friends. You talk about the things that happened in the Justice Department. The people who really made it happen are the people that are here, the heads of our various components who have done such a great job. And with us are our friends. Very pleased to see the Vice President and so many of my fellow cabinet members here later on. But I just want you to know that as always it's been an honor and a privilege to serve you. You came to this office with a very definite idea of what you wanted to do. The campaign, the transition, and then what you've achieved over seven and a half going into eight years, you never wavered from what you wanted to do and you let us know what it was. And I think all of us who had a hand feel extremely grateful for that opportunity. The best part about it, quite frankly, was the people I got to work with. Starting with you but extending through this group, my fellow cabinet members, the people I worked with here in the White House, the friends on the outside who were so supportive. But you mentioned the tough times that we have gone through. Admittedly there were occasional slings and arrows that have been thrown my way. But the one thing that enabled Ursula and Dana, Mike and Ramona, and me to get through it, was your unwavering support. I don't think anybody has ever had a more loyal and a more supportive friend. For that I'm very grateful. So to you and to all of these friends, I just want to say thank you. I think this is a party now and they're at all the makings for pretty good. And then I never had any problem about who was right and who was wrong. There's one thing about Hollywood. You always knew who played the bet, guys knew who played the bet. George, what are you doing back there? I can't stay and say hello to so many of you and to old friends as I would like to. But I'm going to turn you loose now to get at that. That's the only part I shouldn't partition. Thanks again, Mr. President. Thank you. Thank you. I got over there with that. Nice to see you. Have fun. How are you? Thank you.
