The Far Corner of the EEC

There are two stupid questions:

1) Isn't it abo0ut time you audited my return?

2) Isn't it immoral, officer, to give me a warning when I was, in fact, speeding?

:-)

.hey!I realkly don't know what you said?
what does West Wing mean?

The West Wing is a TV show that has John Spencer playing the character of Leo McGarry.

Now to really confuse things for those that don't watch the show...Leo is the former Chief of Staff and is talking to Josh who at the time is the Acting Chief of Staff (normally the Deputy Chief of Staff). They are talking about which candidate they should back for the upcoming election which for the The West Wing takes place the year after the real U.S. election.

Since The West Wing has been successful enough to run enough seasons, they are now faced with the problem that the current "president" (Jeb Bartlett) is nearing the end of his second term, so, they have to come up with a new presidential nominee who, unless they really want to change characters around, will want to keep on much of the same staff.

Should be an interesting season.

But, I just liked the line...it fit Leo's character and states what I think of as an obvious truth that is often put aside in today's politically correct world.

I come up with stupid ideas all the time. Of course, what do I do with them? I put them on my blog.

:-)

I believe CJ had been named Chief of Staff so Josh was no longer Acting Chief of Staff when that conversation took place.

I always say that there are no stupid ideas, just stupid people with ideas.

ref to CJ being CoS...true, but CJ (along with the President and friends) is off in China at the time of the quote and a bit earlier Josh makes the comment that since he's the Acting CoS he's not about to be Acting Press Secretary.

Side note: I'm bummed about Donna quiting, I really hope this doesn't mean she's leaving the show.
