schultz, i've watched your show quite a bit. i'm a big fan. i've always wondered, during the bush years when they were putting all these unfunded money against these wars, i don't believe they paid a dime on any of it yet. who do you suppose the interest alone on all that adds up to? >> well, we're going to be paying for iraq and afghanistan for generations to come. but i think that the country needs to realize right now whether it's president obama or whether it's someone else in the white house, the fact is that spending is down. the deficit is down, and taxes are lower. i mean, that's a fact. it just so happens that president obama is in the office, and this is what is happening. maybe his policies are working. 26 months of private sector job growth. under the issue of dealing with spending and the deficit, to my recollection, president obama said let's go big. he was willing to take the big three -- medicare, medicaid and social security and say okay, we'll rearrange it, but let's go big. and the republicans said, well, no, we're not going

i think it was three days later george schultz called me over to the white house again and said, okay, you can appoint clay cattrall, but you caused a lot of difficulty, a lot of trouble, and it is -- you may not travel to the state of new york between now and the election. >> was it -- >> as a government official. >> was it at this time that you had that meeting with john ehrlichman where he talked about colston? >> no, it was later that summer, later that -- i think it was june. i became increasingly concerned about colston's talk with local unions about cases that the labor department had. i was perfectly prepared to do all i could, and i did do a great deal, to gain building trades and other union support for nixon in '72. george meanie, for instance, was appalled at mcgovern. and so there was a richfield to reach for union support. but i would never under any circumstances touch political discussions with a law enforcement case. and the more colston would do that, the more concerned i got. so i went to ehrlichman, i think it was in june, to ask for his intervention in stopping co

schultz. it's very easy for him to say what transpired in wisconsin. first of all, i believe that with all the union stuff, that they bussed people in and got money from across the country. and the democrats always say how the republicans are getting all this help from outside. but in reality, it has always been the unions and the that have brought in outsiders to the state of wisconsin. and if i was a wisconsinite, i would be upset about bringing all those people in and not letting their own state handle this. that's just my comment. >> and that's fair enough. that's fair enough there is no question that there are people -- in fact i had a gentleman call in my radio show yesterday. it was from a southern state, saying that, you know, he was so motived by what he saw on television that he went up to wisconsin to help out. so i don't -- i don't disagree with that. i think there are people that have been motived from all around the country. but with respect to the caller, you cannot defy the fact where the money is coming, and the money is 20-1 in favor

. >> in -- >> remember, george schultz was -- john connolly and george schultz both had a role in administering that program and arnie weber was the executive director. and then don rumsfeld was, too. >> well, in an interview with secretary schultz said he was against wage and price control. >> i think it's true. it was connolly that convinced nixon. i'm sure schultz was against it. he hated the idea. so that's why it was amusing that he was put in charge with it. >> in an interview with us vice president cheney talked about how he played a role working for rumsfeld and actually assigning some of these targets, you know, deciding how much of this or that could be produced. i think he gave us an example of the wine industry. >> it was truly bizarre. it was a nightmare. but one funny incident. the television networks came in to see me. i don't know why i was designated as the person to see on this, but the office of the legal counsel assistant attorney general, he had not yet been appointed to the supreme court, came in my office as well because the network ceos and their general counsels were as

oversold george schultz and were way ahead of events in predicting the cold war. when the advisers began to think through how to deal with the gorbachev phenomenon, james baker, secretary of state and secretary of defense dick cheney defined the extremes in the debate over how to handle gorbachev. baker wanted maximum tactical flexibility to work with the kremlin leader whereas cheney who assumed gorbachev and the system around him would fail, preferred to stonewall the kremlin. general scowcroft was somewhere in the middle and his deputy gates was a little closer to cheney in the discussion, leaving the president as the balance of power. there is no way this system could have worked if president bush was a cipher. it's very important to understand as you read these oral histories that this system had to have a strong executive for it to function. it is essential to understand this administration. without a central executive this administration would have been at sixes and sevens. the system worked because once president bush made the decision, it was loyally foll
