Jesus
1:22:11
Kenny
1:22:13
give me a couple minutes
alone with Bobby
1:22:26
Just try this on for size
1:22:29
We get a hold of Walter Lippman
1:22:31
and we leak the idea of pulling
our Jupiter missiles out of Turkey
1:22:36
The Soviets
pull their missiles out of Cuba
1:22:41
We back JFK! K. and K. must talk!
1:22:42
End the arms race, not the human race
1:22:44
Hey, hey, JFK!
Let's not start a war today!
1:22:56
Kenny
1:22:57
Mac
1:22:58
What did you think of
the Lippman column this morning?
1:23:00
It's a bad idea
1:23:01
Thank God. Look
everybody's furious about it
1:23:03
We trade away our missiles in Turkey
and we are dead politically
1:23:05
You've gotta stop it
1:23:07
We know it was Jack and Bobby's idea
1:23:08
They leaked it to Lippman
1:23:09
The military guys are going ape
and they're not alone
1:23:11
They should speak up
1:23:13
Christ, Ken, it's not that easy
1:23:14
It is
1:23:15
It isn't. They don't trust
the people that feel this way
1:23:17
But these people are right
and the Kennedys are wrong
1:23:19
We need you to talk to them
They'll listen to you
1:23:21
Jack and Bobby are good men
But it takes a certain kind of...
1:23:23
You mean the President
of the United States?
1:23:25
And the Attorney General?
1:23:27
Kenny, they are good men
but it takes certain character
1:23:28
moral toughness
to stand up to the Soviets
1:23:32
You're in the White House right now
because of the Kennedys
1:23:35
They may be wrong. They make mistakes
1:23:38
But they are not weak
1:23:40
The weak ones are these people
who can't speak their own minds
1:23:42
You know I don't mean
that they're weak
1:23:44
No, you just lack a "moral toughness"
1:23:46
Jesus Christ, Mac!
1:23:49
You think I'll play your Judas for you
1:23:53
You never understood us, for you
1:23:55
We've been fighting with each other
our whole lives
1:23:57
But nobody plays us off each other
1:23:59
and nobody ever
