00:10:31	Howard Hunt, sir.
00:10:33	Hunt? Howard Hunt?
00:10:39	Dumb bastard left his White House
00:10:42	He works for Colson.
00:10:46	After the arrest, this guy dumped
00:10:49	We`re still trying to figure out
00:10:54	Howard Hunt is working
00:10:57	Jesus Christ.
00:11:00	This is goddamn Disneyland.
00:11:02	Since Chappaquiddick. You wanted dirt
00:11:06	You know Hunt, sir?
00:11:09	Yeah, on the list of horribles.
00:11:11	l know what he is and
00:11:15	- You say he was involved
00:11:17	Colson had him, uh, trying to
00:11:21	to plant McGovern`s
00:11:25	l had nothing to do with that.
00:11:28	- He was in this Ellsberg thing too?

00:11:33	lt was right after
00:11:36	They went in to get
00:11:38	That`s when we were,
00:11:45	Fuck.

00:11:57	You`re supposed to be taking pictures
00:12:03	Howard Hunt.
00:12:05	Jesus Christ.
00:12:07	You open up that scab,
00:12:10	What do you mean?
00:12:14	- Where`s Hunt now?
00:12:16	- He sent Liddy in to talk to Dean.
00:12:20	He wants money.
00:12:22	- Then pay him.
00:12:24	l told him to get out of the country.
00:12:26	What the hell are you doing,John,
00:12:30	l don`t care how much he wants.
00:12:32	Well what are we
00:12:36	- Silence.
00:12:39	lt`s only this Ellsberg thing, and if
00:12:53	l say we cut ourselves loose from these
00:12:57	No, it`s more than that.
00:13:00	We`ve never done that before, sir.
00:13:03	We should set up
00:13:08	- Should we talk to Trini
00:13:11	And for God`s sake,
00:13:14	lt`s time we baptize
00:13:18	That meansJohn can never talk about it.
00:13:22	- Uh-huh.
00:13:25	- Don`t worry, sir.
00:13:32	Okay.
00:13:36	Did l approve
00:13:41	You know, l`m glad we tape
00:13:45	l never approved the break-in
00:13:49	Oh, maybe l approved it
00:13:53	Someday we gotta start
00:13:56	You approved that before the fact
00:14:00	Yeah, but of course l--
00:14:02	That`s right. And it`s really
00:14:05	He`s the one who fixed Hunt up
00:14:07	But what else does Hunt have on us?
00:14:14	We gotta turn off the F.B.l., Bob.
00:14:17	You go to the C.l.A.
00:14:22	Tell him Hunt and his Cuban
00:14:25	and, uh, if he goes public--
00:14:28	it will be a fiasco
00:14:32	- He`ll know what l`m talking about.
00:14:35	Play it tough. That`s the way
00:14:39	Don`t lie to Helms and say
00:14:42	Just say this is, uh...
00:14:44	sort of a comedy of errors-- bizarre--
00:14:48	and, uh, say
00:14:50	it`s gonna open up
00:14:54	Now, tell Helms he should call
00:14:57	and say that we wish,
00:15:00	Don`t go any further
00:15:05	Bay of Pigs?
00:15:08	That was Kennedy`s screw-up.
00:15:11	Just do what l say, Bob.
00:15:14	The only problem with that, sir--it
00:15:19	lt`s got nothing to do with justice,
00:15:23	-How is this national security?
00:15:27	Now, this isn`t
00:15:29	My job is to protect
00:15:32	and its enemies
00:15:35	We gotta keep our enemies
00:15:37	or our whole program
00:15:41	Uh, Vietnam, China,
00:15:44	-So when you look at the big picture,
00:15:46	end up doing a hell of a lot
00:15:49	So let`s not screw it up
00:15:53	What should l tell Ziegler
00:15:55	Well, tell `em what we always tell `em.
00:16:01	- Fuck!
00:16:03	it`s gonna open up
00:16:07	- Put me in this position.
00:16:09	- Expose me like this.
00:16:12	Why don`t they just
00:16:14	ln the election of 1860...
00:16:16	Abraham Lincoln said the question
00:16:20	half-slave or half-free.
00:16:22	ln the election of 1 960,
00:16:26	the question is whether the world
00:16:31	and l think, in the final analysis,
00:16:36	l think it`s time America
00:16:39	-Mr. Nixon?
00:16:43	through the years l have sat
00:16:47	l have been in the Cabinet; l have met
00:16:53	- Relax, everybody, relax.

00:17:05	-Let`s take hydroelectric power.
00:17:08	He just got out of the hospital,
00:17:12	When we consider the lineup
00:17:15	we find there are...
00:17:20	800 million people
00:17:23	- Should`ve slapped
00:17:26	-We`d better hope not.
00:17:30	What are you doing to him, Murray?
00:17:32	He`s not well. He doesn`t
00:17:35	- The odds are 5-3 against us.
00:17:38	- When it comes to politics--
00:17:40	-Senator Kennedy,you have
00:17:43	Castro is only the beginning of our
00:17:46	- The big struggles that we have seen--
00:17:49	We have seen Cuba
00:17:51	Eight jet minutes
00:17:54	We must attempt to strengthen the
00:17:58	These fighters have had virtually
00:18:01	- Son of a bitch.
00:18:03	Kennedy was briefed last week
00:18:06	- He knows we can`t respond.
00:18:08	- that we are now providing...
00:18:10	we might never have had Castro.
00:18:11	Why didn`t we?
00:18:13	- Mr. Nixon?
00:18:15	-Come on, Dick. Dick, this is it.
00:18:18	-Come on, attack the bastard.
00:18:27	-Mr. Nixon.
00:18:31	Well, l think--l think
00:18:36	- very dangerous and
00:18:38	- that`s--
00:18:40	-Helping the Cuban exiles...
00:18:42	who oppose Castro would, uh...
00:18:45	-not only be, uh,
00:18:48	-it would be, uh,
00:18:51	The popular vote column, by the way,
00:18:54	Uh, Senator Kennedy`s lead...
00:18:57	is about, uh, 700,000.
00:19:00	You think maybe that son of a bitch
00:19:03	ln Texas they had
00:19:06	lt was the closest race in history,
00:19:11	- He outspent us and he still cheated.
00:19:14	A guy who`s got everything.
00:19:18	We came to Congress together. We were
00:19:23	lt all figures, Dick. lt`s an obvious
00:19:26	Don`t be ridiculous.
00:19:30	Who`s gonna do the counting?
00:19:32	The Democrats control Texas.
00:19:35	We shift 25,000 votes in two states.
00:19:37	- And how long will that take?
00:19:40	Meanwhile, what happens
00:19:43	- lf l`d called his shot
00:19:45	lt made me look soft.
00:19:47	- ''l feel very sorry for Nixon...
00:19:49	- No.
00:19:51	Do you believe this? ''At each stop
00:19:54	he`s gonna be at the moment,
00:19:58	-Jack Kennedy.
00:20:00	- ''Nixon is a shifty-eyed,
00:20:03	and if he had to stick to the truth,
00:20:06	lf you vote for Nixon,
00:20:10	That`s what killed us, Dick. Not Cuba.
00:20:14	- You gonna let the son-of-a-bitch
00:20:18	Goes to Harvard. His father hands him
00:20:23	All my life
00:20:26	Not the right clothes; not the right
00:20:31	Then he steals from me.
00:20:34	He says l have no class,
00:20:37	Dick,you`re only 47.
00:20:41	lf you contest this election,
00:20:44	You gotta swallow this one.
00:20:46	They stole it fair and square.
00:20:55	We`ll get `em next time.
00:20:59	What makes you think there`s
00:21:03	Because if he`s not this Nixon...
00:21:06	he`s nobody.
00:21:12	- Good morning, sir.
00:21:24	- Hi.
00:21:28	We lost.
00:21:31	l know.

00:21:41	lt makes us human.
00:21:44	lt`s not fair, Buddy.
00:21:48	l can take the insults.
00:21:51	But l can`t take the losing.

00:22:09	lt is. We know that.
00:22:13	And it`s enough that we know.
00:22:20	Just think of the girls.
00:22:23	They`re still young.
00:22:26	We never see them.
00:22:31	l lost my parents when l was young.
00:22:47	Maybe l should

00:22:57	end up with something solid,
00:23:03	You know, l, uh...

00:23:14	You know how much money he had
00:23:19	Nothing.
00:23:21	He was so damned honest.
00:23:25	But l miss him.

00:24:21	Oh, no. Harold.
00:24:24	He doesn`t respond well to humor.
00:24:27	Maybe if you talk to Mother

00:24:31	- Shh!
00:24:38	- Donald, finish thy sweeping,
00:24:44	l`m working.
00:24:48	Richard, come with me,

00:39:24	A small-town lawyer like Lincoln,
00:39:28	and a senator at 35...
00:39:29	as part of the postwar Republican sweep
00:39:33	that attacked F.D.R.`s
00:39:36	Running as a South Pacific veteran,
00:39:39	over CongressmanJerry Voorhis
00:39:43	that, to Nixon,
00:39:45	He didn`t have opponents,
00:39:47	Why, she`s pink,
00:39:50	Nixon became one of
00:39:52	on the notorious House
00:39:55	questioning labor leaders,
00:39:59	lf l had my way about it,
00:40:02	But it was the Alger Hiss case
00:40:05	One of the architects
00:40:08	intimate of F.D.R.
00:40:10	Alger Hiss was
00:40:13	accused by freelance journalist
00:40:15	- of passing secret documents
00:40:19	Hiss claimed he was being set up

00:40:42	After two trials, Hiss was convicted
00:40:47	To some Nixon was a hero
00:40:49	But to many he was
00:40:52	Eleanor Roosevelt
00:40:55	Nixon continued
00:40:59	for losing mainland China
00:41:02	and blamed the Korean War
00:41:05	l promise to expose
00:41:08	the people that have sold
00:41:10	His speeches, if more subtle than those
00:41:16	- All of`em!
00:41:17	You know-- You know the direct result
00:41:20	is that China
00:41:23	Mao is a monster! Why?
00:41:26	Who in the State Department
00:41:29	Who has given the Russians
00:41:31	The Soviet Union is an example of a
00:41:37	Driven by demons that seemed
00:41:41	Nixon became Eisenhower`s
00:41:45	But then came
00:41:47	Nixon was accused of hiding
00:41:51	About to be kicked off
00:41:54	- l`m going to use this time...

00:42:00	- Everything l`ve earned...
00:42:03	- their Oldsmobile...
00:42:06	and lastly, in what was
00:42:09	a sentimental gift
00:42:11	You know what it was?
00:42:14	in a crate that he`d sent all the way

00:42:44	- and stoned by Latin mobs
00:42:46	Nixon once again
00:42:49	But it all came to a crashing end
00:42:53	and Pat Brown
00:42:57	And thus ends a great
00:43:00	The truth is, we never knew
00:43:04	and now that he is gone

01:08:02	l look at it from the point of view that
01:08:05	- Yeah.
01:08:08	- Yeah.
01:08:14	The late Dr. King, for example.
01:08:16	A moral hypocrite.
01:08:19	Screwing women
01:08:21	stirring up the blacks,
01:08:27	Sometimes a system
01:08:33	We`ve already had one radical

01:08:52	As long as l can count on yours.
01:09:01	Yeah, the old queen

01:09:10	Hoover knew a lot of gangsters.
01:09:13	Johnny Roselli
01:09:16	Johnny Roselli was one of the gangsters
01:09:21	No, l know a man named Bob Engel.
01:09:23	Oh. Well, l know
01:09:25	l don`t understand it.
01:09:28	Yeah, Chile, Congo,
01:09:33	Wherever there is need for, uh,
01:09:40	ln Cuba, Track 1 was, uh,
01:09:45	Track 2 was our idea.
01:09:48	We thought that the invasion wouldn`t
01:09:51	So we asked ourselves, uh,
01:09:58	whether Mafia or money people?
01:10:00	So we put together Track 2.
01:10:17	First assassination attempt
01:10:20	- Uh,just before the election.
01:10:22	Eisenhower approved that?
01:10:25	Yeah. Well, he didn`t veto it.
01:10:28	l ran the White House side and...
01:10:31	uh, the Mob contact
01:10:35	One of the C.l.A. guys
01:10:38	Howard Hunt.
01:10:40	-Jesus.
01:10:43	Not just Howard Hunt, but Frank Sturgis
01:10:50	All of them in the Watergate--
01:10:53	Uh, they were all involved in Cuba.
01:11:02	Yeah, Hunt reported
01:11:06	l don`t know how much Hunt knows,
01:11:09	but...you never know.
01:11:13	So you wanted Castro dead.
01:11:19	You know, if Hunt
01:11:22	why don`t we just dump this
01:11:26	- Let Dick Helms take the fall.
01:11:30	Because Helms knows,
01:11:35	lf there`s anyone in this
01:11:39	and you don`t fuck
01:11:42	All right.
01:11:44	But why, if Kennedy was so clean
01:11:48	Because he didn`t even
01:11:52	The C.l.A., uh, never told him.
01:11:57	Like it had a life of its own,
01:12:01	kind of a thing,you know?
01:12:04	Doesn`t even know it exists.
01:12:06	Just eats people when it
01:12:11	Two days after the Bay of Pigs...
01:12:14	Kennedy called me in
01:12:19	- He`d just found out about Track 2.
01:12:22	l didn`t want him-- didn`t
01:12:26	He said l`d stabbed him
01:12:31	lf l kissed you
01:12:36	Fever in the morning
01:12:39	- Fever all through the night
01:12:43	Play it on a runway in Paris
01:12:46	- The models do a--
01:12:52	arms stretched out like that
01:12:56	Stay back!
01:12:59	l knew then l`d be president.
01:13:03	His death paved the way, didn`t it?
01:13:06	Yeah. Vietnam, the Kennedys...
01:13:09	cleared a path through
01:13:15	Over the bodies.
01:13:20	Four bodies.
01:13:28	You mean two.
01:13:31	Two bodies.
01:13:36	Four.

01:16:16	l want to go home, Dick.
01:16:19	Time to go home.
01:16:22	You--
01:16:24	You`re not gonna quit on me now,

01:17:01	Out came the sun
01:17:07	The itsy-bitsy spider--
01:17:13	Richard.
01:17:17	- l can`t.
01:17:22	This law school,
01:17:26	He had to die
01:17:34	Something has to come of this.
01:17:38	lt`s meant to make us stronger.
01:17:41	Thee art stronger than Harold,

01:19:55	without fear
01:19:57	then it is time for new leadership

01:20:09	millions of Americans
01:20:12	''Did we come all the way for this?
01:20:15	Did American boys die in Normandy
01:20:21	l pledge to you that

01:20:33	to find the truth,
01:20:35	and to live the truth.
01:20:37	A new voice is being heard
01:20:40	lt is not the voice
01:20:43	lt is the quiet voice of the majority
01:20:47	The non-shouters.
01:20:51	They`re the good people. They work hard
01:20:56	Now, who are they?
01:20:59	They`re in this audience
01:21:01	They`re the white Americans

01:21:08	and they have
01:21:11	Angry, not with hate, but angry,
01:21:15	and they don`t like what`s happened
01:21:19	Let us understand,

01:21:24	Only Americans can do that!
01:21:30	l say to you tonight--
01:21:32	l say to you tonight we must have
01:21:36	of self-discipline.
01:21:37	We must look to renew
01:21:40	We must have a complete reform

01:21:48	we can have full prosperity
01:21:50	Yes, we can cut
01:21:53	We can reduce, uh,

01:22:50	They have no tradition.
01:22:52	- Mr. President,
01:22:56	- That`s what you`re saying.
01:22:58	The same old horseshit.
01:23:01	l`m sick of being pushed around
01:23:04	like we`re some, uh,
01:23:07	Uh, they`re using our P.O.W.s
01:23:11	What we need now is a,
01:23:14	and go right after their,
01:23:17	and, uh, uh, make `em scream,
01:23:21	- What do you think, Henry?
01:23:25	most of my staff have weighed in
01:23:28	They believe it will fail to achieve
01:23:33	and will result in crushing

01:23:41	What l think is,
01:23:43	Their opposition represents the
01:23:49	They don`t realize,
01:23:52	that the Communists
01:23:54	and they will only negotiate
01:24:00	Exactly. Unpredictability
01:24:03	We`ve gotta take the war to `em. Hit `em
01:24:06	More assassinations, right, Al?
01:24:08	That`s what they`re doing,
01:24:11	See,your people in

01:24:26	Small event but dramatic.
01:24:28	Yes, well, they`ll
01:24:30	lf we sneak out of this war,
01:24:35	We bite the bullet here
01:24:40	We bomb the hell
01:24:46	Tonight,American
01:24:49	will attack the headquarters of the
01:24:54	in South Vietnam.
01:24:55	This is not an invasion of Cambodia.

01:25:28	were attacked by construction workers
01:25:34	-ln Washington,protestors have
01:25:37	and are camping out

01:25:51	See, when l think of those kids out
01:25:54	uh, l bet they were scared.
01:25:56	l-l was when l was there. Uh--
01:25:58	But when it comes down to it,you really
01:26:01	because they`re the greatest.

01:26:22	A good old-fashioned trip
01:26:25	- Yes.
01:26:27	That`s what these bums need.
00:00:03	- Thank you, sir.
00:00:05	- Thanks, everybody. Bye.

00:01:28	Why not?
00:01:31	Well, is it worth it, sir? l mean,

00:02:02	Oh, they fear the Vietnamese
00:02:05	and they`re worried
00:02:08	Now, if we stick it out,
00:02:11	with both the Chinese
00:02:14	and we`d get better deals
00:02:17	That is triangular diplomacy,
00:02:21	Exactly, Mr. President.
00:02:23	That`s what geopolitics is about.
00:02:26	The linking of the whole world

00:16:26	relating to the war in Vietnam.
00:16:28	The papers, leaked by
00:16:31	reveal a systematic pattern
00:16:36	Mr. President, we are
00:16:40	We are under siege.
00:16:44	The State Department under Rogers
00:16:46	And now, this little
00:16:50	publishing all the diplomatic secrets
00:16:53	is destroying our ability
00:16:56	l wonder if there are many
00:16:59	was very cheap if they could contribute
00:17:01	The man has become a drug fiend.
00:17:04	He shot people from helicopters
00:17:07	He`s had sexual relations with his wife
00:17:11	He sees a shrink in L.A.
00:17:14	And now he`s trying to look good
00:17:18	And if he gets away with it,
00:17:21	This man must be stopped at all costs.
00:17:23	l`m as frustrated as you are,
00:17:27	They started the war.
00:17:29	But, Mr. President,
00:17:33	- lt makes you look like a weakling.
00:17:36	How long have we had this jackass dog?
00:17:40	We need a dog that looks happy
00:17:42	-He`s photogenic.Just try new biscuits.
00:17:44	He doesn`t like me,John.

00:18:03	- No, l don`t, Henry. l don`t.
00:18:07	Go for an injunction.
00:18:09	Yeah, but it`s not, bottom line,
00:18:12	The... question is,
00:18:16	it puts the fear of God
00:18:19	The other issue is, how the hell
00:18:21	Now, someone is talking
00:18:26	You hear me? Then we can go
00:18:29	- Sir, if l might?
00:18:32	We can do this ourselves.
00:18:34	The C.l.A. and the F.B.l.
00:18:37	Now, we can create our own
00:18:44	- Well, why not?
00:18:48	- To plug the leaks?
00:18:50	- Like plumbers.
00:18:56	l like it.
00:18:59	Yeah, but, uh, is it legal?
00:19:04	Hát persze.

00:19:21	Really. l mean,you do it
00:19:25	lf they went through these towns,
00:19:28	they`d line the whole
00:19:30	''Now, until you talk,
00:19:33	Really, l think that`s
00:19:35	l don`t think you can be
00:19:37	You just whisper the word
00:19:41	- We`re not Germans.
00:19:44	Ellsberg`s not the issue.
00:19:46	Pentagon papers aren`t the issue.
00:19:50	lt`s the lie.
00:19:53	- Mr. Hiss is lying.
00:19:57	Remember,John, back in `48?
00:20:02	Well, they loved Hiss
00:20:05	He was their kind.
00:20:08	l am not,
00:20:10	- Mr. Hiss is lying.
00:20:13	l was dirt to them. Nothing.
00:20:15	And Dick kicked the shit out of`em.
00:20:17	l wouldn`t have if Hiss
00:20:21	The documents were old and out-of-date,
00:20:25	The key thing we proved
00:20:28	Then people bought
00:20:31	lt`s the lie that gets you.
00:20:35	All right, Henry, we`re gonna go
00:20:39	There is no other choice,
00:20:41	We`re gonna hit him so hard, he`ll look
00:20:44	about the Eastern establishment.
00:20:47	You and your plumbers,you`re gonna
00:20:50	Let`s see him going to the bathroom
00:20:52	And when we finish with him,
00:20:55	Then we`ll get our second term.

00:34:15	The American people
00:34:19	Really. Well, that can be changed.
00:34:23	ln a heartbeat.
00:34:34	Jack, l`ve learned politics
00:34:38	l learned it the hard way.
00:34:42	Well, let me tell you this,Jack.
00:34:44	lf you don`t like it,
00:34:46	and you can take your money
00:34:51	How about it,Jack?
00:34:54	Hand this country over to some pansy
00:35:01	`Cause if you`re not happy
00:35:05	try the l.R.S.
00:35:09	Goddamn, Dick.
00:35:13	Presidents don`t threaten,Jack.
00:35:17	They don`t have to.
00:35:22	Good day to you, gentlemen.
00:35:49	With third-party candidate
00:35:52	paralyzed by
00:35:55	Richard Nixon
00:35:57	in the 1 972
00:36:00	- lt is the second biggest landslide...
00:36:02	- in American history.
00:36:05	As the new term begins,
00:36:07	the Watergate investigations
00:36:11	in any significant way.
00:36:15	Probably our biggest achievement
00:36:19	isn`t China or Russia.
00:36:22	lt`s pulling out of Vietnam
00:36:25	l believe you`re right.
00:36:27	But even the presidency
00:36:31	Sir?
00:36:34	The presidency by itself
00:36:38	We`re beyond politics now.
00:36:44	Mr. Ehrlichman.
00:36:47	Yeah.
00:36:49	Sir,just in from Paris.
00:36:51	- The Vietnamese have accepted
00:36:54	- The bombing worked, sir.
00:36:56	- Congratulations.
00:36:58	The mad bomber theory
00:37:02	And Henry is coming back to join us.
00:37:05	- in all the photographs, of course.
00:37:08	- This could be it. This could be it.
00:37:10	Four long years. Geez.
00:37:12	lncidentally, sir, l don`t know
00:37:16	Bill Sullivan over at the F.B.l. got
00:37:22	- l didn`t wanna bring it up
00:37:26	Well, Sullivan... thinks he`s the one.
00:37:40	Yeah, l knew it. l knew it from `69 on,
00:37:44	- Yeah, l remember.
00:37:48	Looks like he talked to
00:37:53	Claims that he was dead set
00:37:55	that you are unstable, and that
00:37:59	That explains his press notices.
00:38:06	My God. He talked
00:38:09	- Yes, he did.
00:38:14	And you know what, sir?
00:38:17	l would personally volunteer
00:38:28	No. No.
00:38:31	No, he`s our only star right now.
00:38:34	He`d... crucify us.
00:38:37	Son of a bitch.
00:38:40	Get someone on our staff
00:38:43	Let`s see how long
00:38:47	So,John, what about
00:38:51	This Sirica`s crazy.
00:38:53	Thirty-five year sentence.
00:38:57	No injuries. There`s no success.
00:39:01	Sirica`s just trying to force someone
00:39:04	What about this Washington Post crap?
00:39:09	- Bernstein, sir.
00:39:11	Bob,you working on revoking
00:39:14	- Yes, sir, l am.
00:39:16	Well, they`re trying to connect Bob
00:39:20	- But they don`t have much.
00:39:24	The F.B.l.`s feeding me
00:39:26	l didn`t think you should lose
00:39:30	Good man,John. Good man.
00:39:34	Oh!
00:39:44	l can therefore
00:39:46	our long and tragic involvement
00:39:51	Our mission is accomplished.
00:39:55	We have a cease fire...
00:39:58	and our prisoners of war
00:40:02	South Vietnam has the right
00:40:08	So, we have peace with honor.
00:40:16	- The president will take
00:40:19	- Mr. President!
00:40:21	Sir, isn`t it true that little has been
00:40:23	that the Communists
00:40:26	that in fact your administration
00:40:29	and at certain stages escalated it
00:40:32	l will try to...
00:40:35	- answer that question in some detail.
00:40:38	- Mr. President!
00:40:41	that high-level White House officials
00:40:45	- Why, that`s the dumbest thing
00:40:49	- Stan.
00:40:51	Mr. Haldeman and Ehrlichman
00:40:56	- ls there any truth to that?
00:40:59	l will not respond to the charges
00:41:03	Nor will l comment on a matter
00:41:06	- Mr. President!
00:41:08	- Sir!
00:41:10	Sir, do you intend to cooperate
00:41:13	Will you agree to the appointment

00:42:03	Fucking Kennedys
00:42:05	Goddamn `em!
00:42:08	You see me screwin`
00:42:11	And for Christ`s sake, l did what the
00:42:14	said for me to do!
00:42:16	l ended the war!
00:42:18	l got SALT l with the Russians;
00:42:22	So why are these assholes
00:42:25	`Cause they don`t like the way l look.
00:42:28	- Because they`re not Americans.
00:42:31	Why would they?
00:42:36	Who are these people?
00:42:38	Their parents are gold traders
00:42:41	And they buy things. They
00:42:44	and one of the things they buy,
00:42:49	You know what? You should be proud,
00:42:53	Because we speak
00:42:56	You know why
00:42:59	lt`s because they`re not serious
00:43:02	They`re playing with power.
00:43:04	They`re forgetting
00:43:07	ln the old days, people knew
00:43:11	They wouldn`t have torn this country
00:43:15	For Christ`s sake...
00:43:16	now all they care about is--
00:43:20	Beating out other papers
00:43:22	Wondering whether someone
00:43:25	All short-term
00:43:27	- Ben Bradlee worrying about
00:43:32	- Get Mr. Dean in here, will you?
00:43:37	We are playing
00:43:39	We have to get ahead of the ball.
00:43:41	Now, we all know
00:43:47	Then let`s take off the gloves.
00:43:50	- Let`s do a housecleaning.
00:44:01	No, it could be ugly,
00:44:04	lt must be done, sir.
00:44:06	All kinds of shit could come out.
00:44:09	Yeah, even you knew about that one,
00:44:10	Well, l heard something.
00:44:13	''ldiotic.``
00:44:15	l thought it was your idea
00:44:18	l guess somebody just
00:44:20	l never suggested that
00:44:25	lt doesn`t matter, Henry.
00:44:29	if the media starts sniffing
00:44:32	Sir, l never had anything
00:44:36	Resent it all you want, Henry,
00:44:41	Cambodia. Ellsberg.
00:44:43	The wire taps you put in.
00:44:46	The president wants you to know
00:44:49	lt`s your ass too, Henry, and it`s in
00:45:05	- Sir.
00:45:07	There are times
00:45:11	can go too far.
00:45:17	Played it perfectly, sir.
00:45:21	Yeah.
00:45:23	He`ll be looking in his toilet bowl
00:45:28	Pardon them all. Hunt and the Cubans
00:45:33	Nobody`s gonna investigate
00:45:36	- Yeah, l like that. l like--
00:45:40	Pardoning them means we`re all guilty.
00:45:43	What am l supposed to do,just sit here
00:45:45	eating their way
00:45:48	Lyndon bugged; so did Kennedy.
00:45:52	Christ, even Eisenhower
00:45:55	What`s so special about me? Huh?
00:46:00	l don`t know.
00:46:03	l just know we`ve made
00:46:06	Now, there are... things l can say when
00:46:11	When l say them,
00:46:16	Then we`re going to have to
00:46:21	Mitchell`s family.
00:46:24	Either it goes to Mitchell,
00:46:28	John`s right, boss.
00:46:31	lt`s not personal.
00:46:35	Sometimes you gotta punt.
00:46:43	Hey, he`s wrong,you know.
00:46:46	- About Kennedy, L.B.J. and Truman.
00:46:50	Well, l mean, sure, they did stuff,
00:46:54	l mean, forget about the break-in,
00:46:59	You got the attempted firebombing
00:47:03	Planting McGovern`s stuff
00:47:06	Trying to slip L.S.D.
00:47:08	The old man plays politics
00:47:11	You think this is about politics?
00:47:13	You think L.B.J. would ever have
00:47:16	implicating Kennedy in the assassination
00:47:21	- How long have you known him?
00:47:24	named after our 26th president.
00:47:26	This is about Richard Nixon.
00:47:28	l mean,you got people dying because he
00:47:31	You got the Constitution
00:47:34	because he went to Whittier,
00:47:38	And what is this Bay of Pigs
00:47:44	lt`s a code or something.
00:47:46	Well, shit,
00:47:49	No, l think he means--
00:47:52	- The Kennedy assassination.
00:47:55	They went after Castro,
00:48:00	l don`t think the old man
00:48:03	But he`s afraid to find out,
00:48:04	He`s shitting peach pits
00:48:07	- Created a Frankenstein
00:48:10	Eight words back in `72:
00:48:13	''l covered up.
00:48:15	l was wrong. l`m sorry.``
00:48:19	And the American public
00:48:22	But we never opened
00:48:25	We failed him.
00:48:28	Dick Nixon saying ''l`m sorry``?
00:48:32	His whole suit of armor
00:48:35	- So...you tell Mitchell.
00:48:39	And,John,you do know
00:48:58	You`re early,John.
00:49:03	lf you`d been
00:49:08	l was... sorry to hear
00:49:11	Yes.
00:49:13	l got the money.
00:49:15	The president would like to know
00:49:18	- l`ll bet he would.
00:49:22	ln Richard Nixon`s long history
00:49:25	he`s never had better value
00:49:28	lf l were to open my mouth,
00:49:33	Can l ask you a question?
00:49:36	How the hell do you have
00:49:41	That`s not the question,John.
00:49:45	- To protect his people.
00:49:49	The Cubans are his people.
00:49:52	Howard,you will serve no more
00:49:56	Maybe. Maybe not.
00:50:00	But you don`t leave
00:50:04	You don`t make them beg
00:50:06	You don`t dump men with families
00:50:10	He didn`t know. This thing
00:50:13	Do you think a man
00:50:16	at the Democratic National
00:50:20	You really thinkJohn Mitchell
00:50:25	The president`s men
00:50:28	nothing without
00:50:35	John, sooner or later--
00:50:37	sooner, l think--you`re going to learn
00:50:42	by everyone who`s ever gotten
00:50:46	That he`s the darkness...
00:50:48	reaching out for the darkness.
00:50:52	And eventually,
00:50:58	Your grave`s already
00:51:15	F.B.l. director-designate
00:51:18	shocked the Senate by revealing
00:51:21	has been secretly receiving
00:51:24	- Crown, this is Echo Six.
00:51:27	Gray also said that Dean lied
00:51:29	did not have an office
00:51:32	- How is he?
00:51:41	This is the sort of thing Mafia
00:51:45	We just don`t know about these things
00:51:47	How much you need?
00:51:51	l would say these people
00:51:53	a million dollars
00:51:57	- We could get that.
00:51:59	Get a million dollars in cash.
00:52:06	l`m still not confident
00:52:09	Some people are gonna have to go
00:52:12	Haldeman let me use
00:52:15	in his safe
00:52:17	Ehrlichman had a role-- a big role--
00:52:21	Oh, l-- l don`t know about that.
00:52:23	And-- And l`m--
00:52:27	l think it`s time we begin to think
00:52:31	Yeah.
00:52:35	Are you saying-- You`re saying cut
00:52:38	And,you know, suppose the thing blows
00:52:43	Jesus,you`d never recover
00:52:46	No, it`s better to fight it out
00:52:51	Sir, l-- l still don`t think
00:52:56	There`s a cancer on the presidency and
00:53:00	Jesus,you know, every--
00:53:02	Everything`s a crisis among the upper
00:53:06	But the average people don`t think
00:53:09	For Christ`s sake, this is not Vietnam.
00:53:13	- l mean, isn`t it ridiculous?
00:53:15	- lt`s-- lt`s ridiculous, but--
00:53:18	Goldwater was right when
00:53:22	We know that.
00:53:25	lt`s the cover-up,John, not the deed,
00:53:31	lf only Mitchell could just step up
00:53:36	You know, give `em
00:53:38	Maybe they won`t come back
00:53:42	You know,
00:53:44	Mitchell`s gonna get it
00:53:48	They`re not paying attention.
00:53:50	He won`t.
00:53:54	You tell my good friend Dick...
00:53:56	l got suckered into this thing
00:54:01	l don`t have a guilty conscience,
00:54:06	Yeah.
00:54:12	Well, he`s right.
00:54:14	Maybe it is time to go
00:54:19	A full and thorough investigation.
00:54:21	We`ve cooperated with the F.B.l.
00:54:26	- What have we gotta hide?
00:54:29	No. Nothing to hide.
00:54:31	You know, the only--
00:54:34	they`re not gonna believe the truth
00:54:37	l agree.
00:54:41	Everything seems
00:54:44	- People would never understand.
00:54:47	John, l want you to get away from
00:54:51	l want you to go up to
00:54:56	Put everything you know
00:55:00	''Mr. President,
00:55:02	You want me to put it all
00:55:07	Well, uh, nobody knows more
00:55:10	And, uh,you know, the details. And
00:55:17	Uh-huh.
00:55:19	Sir... l`m not going to be
00:55:24	Haldeman and Ehrlichman
00:55:26	No, now,John,you don`t
00:55:29	l-- You know,
00:55:31	Whittaker Chambers
00:55:35	And he was a man
00:55:37	And he said, ''On the road
00:55:42	Now... it`s beyond you
00:55:45	- lt`s-- lt`s the country.
00:55:47	- lt`s the presidency.
00:55:48	You know, l-- You know
00:55:50	l-- l`m not gonna let any of my people
00:55:55	Now, the important thing is
00:55:59	And l`m trusting you to do
00:56:04	- l`ll work on it.
00:56:06	Now you say hi to
00:56:08	- Yes, sir.
00:56:12	- lt happens.
00:56:13	- Yeah.
00:56:19	l was determined that we should
00:56:23	and the truth
00:56:28	Today, in one of the most
00:56:33	l accepted the resignations of two of my
00:56:37	Bob Haldeman
00:56:40	two of the finest public servants
00:56:48	More light, Chief?.
00:56:51	No, Bob.
00:57:00	- Six bodies.
00:57:05	l will not place the blame
00:57:08	on people whose zeal
00:57:11	and who may have done wrong in a cause
00:57:18	ln any organization, the man at the top
00:57:23	That responsibility, therefore, belongs
00:57:29	There can be no whitewash
00:57:31	Two wrongs do not make a right.
00:57:35	Now, l love America.
00:57:37	God bless America, and God bless
00:57:43	And we`re clear.
00:57:49	Out.
00:58:10	Thank you.
00:58:18	Are you going
00:58:21	- Yeah.
00:58:26	Tomorrow.
00:58:35	Ron told me that, um...
00:58:38	Bob Haldeman has been calling,
00:58:43	lf he`s convicted,
00:58:49	No.
00:58:57	Why are you cutting yourself off
00:59:03	- Can`t we discuss this?
00:59:07	You. What you`re doing.
00:59:11	- What am l doing?
00:59:14	You`re hiding.
00:59:18	- Hiding what?
00:59:23	You`re letting it
00:59:27	You won`t even ask for hel--
00:59:34	Manolo, uh,
00:59:43	l am the only one left, Dick.
00:59:46	lf you don`t even talk to me--
00:59:58	Brezhnev`s coming in three days.
01:00:01	l don`t wanna deal with them
01:00:07	How much more--
01:00:10	When do the rest of us
01:00:18	l`d like to finish
01:00:22	if it`s not too much to ask.
01:00:29	No, it isn`t.
01:00:35	l won`t interfere with you anymore.
01:00:40	Thank you.
01:00:43	''Thank you``?
01:00:45	Dick, sometimes l understand
01:00:57	The committee will come to order,
01:01:00	- Thank you.
01:01:04	After l departed
01:01:06	l subsequently went to a meeting
01:01:10	The sum and substance
01:01:13	the way to handle this now
01:01:17	lt was a tremendous disappointment
01:01:20	that the cover-up,
01:01:23	was concerned,
01:01:26	- Why is he doing this?
01:01:28	lf he had a problem,
01:01:31	Just remember,
01:01:34	- l, for the first time, said--
01:01:38	...were all indictable
01:01:41	And that was the reason
01:01:45	- Give `em hell, General.
01:01:54	Mao taught me in 1 963...
01:01:59	if l have nuclear weapons...
01:02:05	let 400 million Chinese die...
01:02:08	300 million will be left.
01:02:12	- Mao.
01:02:16	- You want to know what happened?
01:02:18	You want names? l can give you names.
01:02:20	l can give you-- l`m talking
01:02:22	- Mao.
01:02:24	l can give you the president.
01:02:26	...this man
01:02:31	You want him
01:02:34	Well, he was your ally
01:02:38	Yes,yes, Dick.
01:02:44	Mr. Nixon.
01:02:48	Life is the best teacher,
01:02:51	with the building of the SALT ll treaty
01:02:59	Peace in our era is possible.
01:03:04	- Excuse me, Leonid.
01:03:22	He`s spilling his guts to
01:03:43	Did you, Daddy?

01:07:19	You`re capable of anything.
01:07:29	You see, it doesn`t really matter
01:07:33	because you have
01:07:35	No concept of remorse.
01:07:38	You want the tapes to get out.
01:07:42	- You`re drunk.
01:07:44	No one`ll ever see those tapes,
01:07:46	And what would l find out

01:35:43	And l think of her...
01:35:45	two boys dying of tuberculosis...
01:35:48	and seeing each of them die.
01:35:51	And when they died--
01:35:58	Yes, she will have no books
01:36:04	But she was a saint.
01:36:09	Now, however,
01:36:13	l remember something, uh,
01:36:17	when his first wife died
01:36:22	He thought the light had gone
01:36:25	But he went on, and he
01:36:29	but as an ex-president
01:36:32	always in the arena,
01:36:36	sometimes right,
01:36:39	But he was a man.
01:36:42	And as l leave, that`s an example
01:36:48	See, we think sometimes
01:36:51	that don`t go the right way--
01:36:54	we think that when
01:36:57	uh, when we lose an election...
01:37:00	or when we suffer defeat,
01:37:04	Not true.
01:37:06	lt`s only a beginning, always...
01:37:09	because the greatness comes not
01:37:13	but the greatness comes
01:37:17	when you take some knocks,
01:37:21	when sadness comes.
01:37:23	Because only if you`ve been
01:37:28	can you ever know
01:37:33	to be on the highest mountain.
01:37:39	So, l say to you
01:37:42	we leave,proud of the people who have
01:37:47	and served this government
01:37:50	We want you to continue to serve
01:37:55	Remember, always give your best.
01:37:59	Never get discouraged.
01:38:01	Never be petty.
01:38:03	Always remember,
01:38:07	but those who hate you don`t win
01:38:12	and then,
01:38:16	And so we leave
01:38:19	and good spirits
01:38:22	And l say to each
01:38:24	not only will we always
01:38:27	but always you will be
01:38:32	and you`ll be in our prayers.
01:38:37	And only then will you find
01:38:40	''peace at the center.`'
01:38:57	He gave of himself
01:39:01	and devotion to duty.
