Leo McGarry: [on the phone with the New York Times] 17 across. Yes, 17 across is wrong... You're spelling his name wrong... What's my name? My name doesn't matter. I am just an ordinary citizen who relies on the Times crossword for stimulation. And I'm telling you that I met the man twice. And I recommended a pre-emptive missile strike against his air force, so I think I know how... C.J. Cregg: Leo. Leo McGarry: They hang up on me every time.
Margaret: Can I just say something for the future? *I* can sign the president's name. I've got his signature down pretty good. Leo McGarry: You can sign the president's name? Margaret: Yeah. Leo McGarry: On a document removing him from power and giving it to someone else? Margaret: Yeah. Or do you think the White House Counsel would say that's a bad idea? Leo McGarry: I think the White House Counsel would say that's a Coup D'Etat. Margaret: I'd probably end up doing some time for that. Leo McGarry: I would think. And what the hell are you doing practicing the president's signature? Margaret: It's just for fun. Leo McGarry: We've got separation of powers, checks and balances, and Margaret, vetoing things and sending them back to the hill.
Leo McGarry: This guy's walking down the street when he falls in a hole. The walls are so steep he can't get out. A doctor passes by, and the guy shouts up, "Hey, you, can you help me out?" The doctor writes a prescription, throws it down in the hole and moves on. Then a priest comes along, and the guy shouts up, "Father, I'm down in this hole. Can you help me out?" The priest writes a prayer, throws it down in the hole and moves on. Then a friend walks by. "Hey, Joe, it's me. Can you help me Out" And the friend jumps in the hole. Our guy says, "Are you nuts? Now we're both down here." The friend says, "Yeah, but I've been down here before - and I know the way out."
