Sloan:
Try and understand this. I'm a decent Republican. I believe in Richard Nixon. I worked in the White House four years--so did my wife. What happened on June 17 I don't think the President knew anything about. Some of his men I'm not so sure of.
Bernstein:
Do you think the truth will come out at the trial?
Sloan:
That's another of the things I'm not so sure of.
Bernstein:
Because people at the Committee were told to lie to the prosecutors?
Sloan:
We were never told flat out "Don't talk." But the message was clear.
Bernstein:
To cover up?
Sloan:
Well, they sure didn't ask us to come forward and tell the truth.
Woodward:
Does "they" mean the White House?
Sloan:
As opposed to the Committee? The Committee's not an independent operation. Everything is cleared with the White House. I don't think that the FBI or the prosecutors understand that.
