![You’re a son-of-a-bitch, You know that? She bought her first new car and You hit her with a drunk driver. What, was that supposed to be funny? “You can’t conceive, nor can I, the appalling strangeness of the mercy of God,” says Graham Greene. I don’t know whose ass he was kissing there ‘cause I think You’re just vindictive.
What was Josh Lyman? A warning shot? That was my son. What did I ever do to Yours except praise His glory and praise His name? There’s a tropical storm that’s gaining speed and power. They say we haven’t had a storm this bad since You took out that tender ship of mine in the north Atlantic last year, 68 crew. Do You know what a tender ship does? Fixes the other ships. Doesn’t even carry guns, just goes around, fixes the other ships and delivers the mail, that’s all it can do. Gratias Tibi ago, domine.
Yes, I lied. It was a sin. I’ve committed many sins. Have I displeased You, You feckless thug? Three point eight million new jobs, that wasn’t good? Bailed out Mexico, increased foreign trade, 30 million new acres of land for conservation, put Mendoza on the bench, we’re not fighting a war, I’ve raised three children… that’s not enough to buy me out of the doghouse? Haec credam a deo pio? A deo iusto? A deo scito? Cruciatus in crucem! Tuus in terra servus nuntius fui officium perfeci. Cruciatus in crucem. Eas in crucem!

Something is happening in the world of The West Wing today.
Josh Malina and Dule Hill joked on Twitter that it’s a movie. But come on. Hmmm.
Update: Turns out they’re at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library…allegedly shooting a Funnyordie sketch.

West Wing reunion w/ Martin Sheen, Allison Janney, @DuleHill, Melissa Fitzgerald, William Duffy & @JoshMalina! (x)
The West Wing, 7x01 The Ticket
I’ve got an airplane hanger out that filled with 500 strangers looking to me for direction. I’ve got a candidate who doesn’t trust any of them. And frankly neither do I. And if you don’t think I miss you every day.
but for now let me say - without hope or agenda,
just because it’s Christmas, and at Christmas you tell the truth
“I’m just saying if you were in an accident, I wouldn’t stop for a beer.”
“If you were in an accident, I wouldn’t stop for red lights.”
