 Pretty good, hope you are. Oh, I'm doing all right. Mansfield-Nerkson came down and dumped this CIA stuff in my lap. They said, what you had to do with it, but they said they were going to do. They said, that's the fool thing I ever saw. I told them that I didn't ever want to order anybody. They didn't tell any secrets to anyone that they didn't trust. Well, the rules are the same. Take care of the situation. In fact, no matter why, it's not in your domain. I want to talk to you about it before I give my answer. I told them that I wasn't supposed to give any such instructions. I want to think it over. Derkson said he didn't make an ought to Mansfield. I asked him, I said, what would you do if you were in my shape? He said, that's a very difficult matter. He wouldn't take a position. Well, he'd take a strong position. He told me he was struggling in favor of doing it just way and all. And I said, well, he brought this up. I said, well, of course you've got something out. I don't have any control over it. Everybody wants to appoint a subcommittee. He can appoint it. And the president wants to order the CIA to spill his guts to anybody in the world while he's got a right to do that. So it's out of my hands. I've got no control over it. What do you think about giving it to this Clark Clifford committee? They've been doing it. Would you or Clifford's going to come in the administration, I think? I could just abolish that committee and just tell them I don't think you'd trouble there. There's too many got supervision now. Leave it up to the ones that got it under the rules of the Congress. Well, we've got the votes fine there. I've had to operate a lot around, but I've got enough to beat the ass off of them. Just that little disarmament cry of the Nelson government, oh, they've got 25 votes or maybe 35. But I've got plenty to beat them. I think you're on the high ground when you just say that's the internal matter, isn't it? And you just don't feel that they're limited to the legislation there. I don't think they're going to say that. Oh, Mansfield is red hot on it until he talks. What's happening in Georgia? The legislature, I could just tie it up and run it, but none of them are. It's about 35 or 6% more to get out. I gave you some good advice on that. He's not advising that now. We've got until we get a government, until we get it propped up. Nobody really has. I think the government's straightening stuff out pretty well out there. Well, that's it. It's on its way to doing it. I think he's going to have one. We did a pretty good job there. Did it help? Good job. I'm sure it cost us a lot of money, but we did a good job. Well, it must have cost us a bit of the Cuba. You know, it's not cost us as much as the best investment we've made. They've got them. Washington Post, New York Times, whatever they say so. Just like in Brazil or Chile, any other place that they got it in. But, of course, the Russians know more about our major system than I do. They know more about everything that happens. And they know that we've got a very strong system. It's weakening greatly the way they run it. It's going to be sort of... Don't you believe that this system is stronger than it was when we came into office? A hell of a lot? Yes, but what you mean is being weak and losing ground now. Well, of course, it's losing ground. It's losing ground all the time because of your position on the reserves, but these reserves, you're picking and pulling all the people out of Europe and sending them over there and filling them up with... We ain't got a shirt they'll pull out of Europe. I'm not sure. Well, I would get 17.15. I don't amount to that. So we exchanged. Don't we move them around back in and out? No, I know, but you put a lot of draftees in there. But, by the way, you don't put some of those people from Europe in these reserve divisions and take these reservists out and let them go to fight. It's something I can't understand because there's nothing... You may get a request up there some morning. There's nothing in combat like having a man that knows what he's doing somewhere along with a squad of 7-8 men. I don't know what they're doing. Well, I don't know the reserves. I don't know. But if I got a man that sits up there and testifies like he thinks these 6 reserve divisions and 12 reserve gates are just equal to anything in the United States or in the world, anywhere else, and I don't know damn well they aren't. I've been out with them. The first place in weeks, we tried to call them up by God. We had to kiss you all around and hug you for weeks. I'm in favor of calling them all up. I'm in favor of calling them up selectively. And we wasn't anymore and get them up until by God, they'd have to go back and we just... All we do is satisfy OJ Carlson and that'd be the only one we're doing. I didn't even get a call and I didn't even know his position. Oh, man, man. You know, my God, he's spending handiness over the head about that. I know what they're having about this. They've been doing it by keeping the reserves compartmentalized like they are now. They tell me that they only got... He's got one old man over there, Carlson, who thought he couldn't get along with them for a while until they showed him what he had and wake him up now. I think he's happy and satisfied. He doesn't think... If we called him up, you'd have to give us legislation. We can get legislation if we don't have to because you can just proclaim an empty dimension. Yeah, I could. I could get us an available big war and I'd go to messing around there too. I don't know what kind of agreements these folks got with the Russians. I want to be awful careful about... Well, I agree with you on that as far as making a declaration of war, but anything short of that, I don't think it's dangerous. No, I'm... We may have to call him up, but what I do, I'm going to make you all run like turkeys. You're going to say, hey, I can't do it over about 12 months and 14 months. I'll just have one goddamn constant and burn in because I knew that was all fraud. It wasn't the need of calling him up. I put that 12 months in there. But it's going to be 24 months now, just like a draftee, if I have anything to do with it. Well, you can write your ticket on it and you better give it plenty of time because I may... You know about the fella, don't you, that made the speech on sex? Well, that's all I can do now is make a speech on it. I remember that talk back, but it's... Did I ever tell you that story? No. Well, the fella came home one night and he's late and his wife's laying up waiting for him about midnight and said, where in the hell have you been? And he about half done, he apologized and said, well, honey, I stopped off at the club and said, they all got to drinking. They asked me to make him a speech and I made him a speech. She said, what did you talk about? He said, aviation. I said, we're talking about putting an aviation service in the company and I talked to him about aviation. She turned over and went on to sleep. The next day she went down to grocery store and the woman came and said, oh, God said your husband must have made a wonderful speech last night. I said, my husband came home midnight, wake me up, turn me over and said, oh, we had a wonderful evening. She got down to the checker and started to check out her groceries. She said, oh, your husband said he must have made a wonderful speech last night. I said, my husband says the most inspiring speech here. And the third one she got in the car told her the same thing. She said, well, I don't know why it was such a damn good speech. He knows very little about the subject. She said, the only experience he's ever had in his whole damn life, he just had two experiences. And so the first time he got sick of his stomach, the second time, his hat blew off. He just had two experiences. He'd just been up to plane twice and said the first time he got sick of his stomach. I've had more experiences now, but it has been in the past. You better hold on to your hats. Your hats couldn't blow off when you go to recommend what we do out there because we may have to have 10 or 15. We may have to have 10 or 15 billion dollars. We may have to spend 30 billion, Mr. President. We may have to have 10 or 15 billion more. We may have to have reserve legislation. We may have to have a big tax bill. I'm ready right now to bring in the appropriations for it. And I think it'd be better than using that damn dollar law that Mr. McNamara's going to use. But I'm willing to go either way. We can get the appropriation. I can get it done. I've talked to George May on it. He says he can get it through the house. Don't you think I'd be in a hell of a shape if I called up the reserves between now and... I don't need to call him up as an organization, Mr. President. I wouldn't do that at all. I wouldn't call up this division or that brigade. I would just mix up a lot of these people I'd call them up as individuals under the MOS, just like you'd call them up these creptes. Because you've got a sanctuary there for all of these, or there's 400,000 of them yet that are in these reserve organizations. And they're the best brains and they're the best boys, basically. They all came up when we wasn't having a scrap scraped the bottom of the barrel. And we ought to mix them up and send some of these... bring some of these boys. They've done that 12 months back from beating them and put them in these divisions where these divisions will be ready to fight. I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll put them in these divisions that have ever fought in here and there's just... proper cops said that they can get out of here and hold that on with anybody because they haven't got any experience with them. Let me make a deal with you. I'll work on the reserve thing and follow your suggestions on that. If you follow mine, I'll let me call up everybody. They'll let me draft all of them. Give me a little step program like you promised me one time. You made me a firm commitment and then ran out on it. That's right. That's what you told me, Frank. It's $12,500. But you just let me call up these damn folks and get them off the marijuana and out of the jungles and out of the rats eating on them. Let me put them out in these damn camps and work hell out at them. Work hell out at them and feed them. I'm going to do it for the hundred and so thousand. You'll call them up today. I don't want you fussing at them. I don't want their critical words. Not one. And I think you're going to waste a lot of money on them. No, that's all right. I don't always do. Army don't cost as much as Shriver. That's right. That's Shriver. Oh, of course not. Well, Shriver's the most attractive man ever in the agency that there's national government. He has the most vision. Are you and Berkson going to keep my budget in terms this year? Keep what? Keep my budget within bounds this year? No. I don't think it's going to be possible to do that. Well, I think you could. You've got about four billion. They've raised it now. I don't know what the committee is, man. I know somebody that you can't touch. One of it you can't touch. It's GI Bill because all of them run about it. You just got scared to death. I was ready to vote against that. You just got scared to death. You just got scared to death. Somebody running against you down there. That's Shriver. I didn't think he was going to do that. It's GI Bill this far. Thank you. Everybody's trashed me the whole time. Everybody's parked in the middle of nowhere, and all they heartcut and what I did was I joined them. I ended up in a plane, and I went about it. I told them I was going to put one out. I said one out. Not a. That's Tim. Yeah.
