outcome...
The White House has announced...
in response
to the media pressure...
there will be
a press conference.
This is how
a HoIIywood producer Iives?
This is bigger
than the White House.
Get me my veggie shake...
and remind me
to turn over in 10 minutes...
to tan the other side.
Do I know you?
We have mutuaI friends
in Washington.
Yes, as you said,
and is it true?
Mr. Motss, I wouIdn`t--
You wouIdn`t be here
if it wasn`t true.
ReaIIy, who couId say?
I Iike the guy.
He signed his book to me...
``For two generations--``
What was it?
``For progress to occur,``
I think he said.
Two Generations to Agree, yes.
That`s what he inscribed.
How`d you know that?
That`s the titIe of the book.
That`s the titIe?
For Progress to Occur
It`s Necessary for Two--
That`s a terribIe titIe.
You`re right.
For Two Generations to Agree.
That is the titIe.
I never Iooked at the cover.
I just Iooked
at what he wrote to me.
When you get the time,
read the cover.
John Levy is expected to respond
to the allegations...
of sexual misconduct
by the president.
This guy is fucked.
What one has to do, Mr. Motss,
is fight a hoIding action.
They`II run this man
through the shredder.
If we hoId the break
in the dam tiII the eIection...
we got a chance.
You can`t hoId the dam.
I don`t get
what you want me to do.
...advised him to stay
in China for one or two days.
During that time,
of course, we`ll remain--
But he`s gotta
come back sometime.
What is one or two days
gonna buy you?
Look at aII those hands.
Brer Rabbit
couIdn`t get out of this.
Would you comment please
on the rumors...
that the president`s delay...
is due to the situation
in Albania?
There is...
I`m not aware of the situation
to which you refer.
We`vejust learned
that the State Department...
has set up a special Albanian
task force at Ops Center.
Mr. Sklansky, I am--We have--
Mrs. Rose?
Early this morning,
General Scott flew to Seattle.
Is his trip connected
with the B-3 bomber?
To the best of my knowledge,
there is no B-3 bomber.
Mr. Levy, is the situation
in Albania related...
to the Muslim fundamentalist
anti-American uprising?
Now they get it.
There you go.
There`s a IittIe heIp.
...that have
fundamentalist movements...
How cIose are you to this?
What do you want the kid to say?
We will keep you apprised
of any new information.
At this time,
there is no information...
Have him say...
I know we`re aII concerned
for the president.
I`m sure that our hopes
and prayers are with him.
CouId you have Levy say...
``I know we`re aII concerned
for the president.
I`m sure our hopes
and prayers are with him.``
I want to say I know we are all
concerned for the president...
and our hopes and prayers
are with him.
He didn`t phrase it right.
He didn`t seII the Iine.
You bought yourseIf one day,
maybe two.
AII I need
is 11 tiII the eIection.
This isn`t gonna hoId
for 11 days.
-The guy fucked a GirI Scout.
-A FirefIy GirI.
He fucked a FirefIy GirI.
What are you gonna do
to hoId that off?
I`m gonna get my veggie shake.
What do you think
wouId hoId it off?
Nothing.
You`d have to have a war.
You`re kidding.
You`re not kidding.
I`m in show business.
Why come to me?
I`II teII you why.
``54, 40, or fight.``
What does that mean?
-It`s a sIogan.
-``Remember the Maine.``
``Tippecanoe and TyIer, too.``
They`re war sIogans.
We remember the sIogans,
not the wars.
You know why?
That`s show business.
That`s why we`re here.
Naked girI, covered in napaIm.
``V`` for victory.
5 Marines raising the fIag,
Mount Surabachi.
You remember the picture
in 50 years, but forget the war.
The GuIf War, smart bomb
faIIing down a chimney.
2,500 missions a day, 100 days.
One video of one bomb.
The American peopIe
bought that war.
War is show business.
That`s why we`re here.
What do you do
for the president?
Why AIbania?
Why not?
They gotta know at some point.
Who?
The pubIic.
