Question: "How do you know that you've watched quite a bit of The West Wing?
Answer: "From the fact, that you see a dream about the characters, in which they act the way you've always wanted them to."
-------
Kysymys: "Mistä tiedät, että olet katsellut aika tavalla The West Wing -sarjaa?"
Vastaus: "Siitä, että näet sarjan hahmoista unta, jossa he toimivat tavalla, jota olet aina toivonut."

Sir Humphrey Appleby: "Minister, I have something to say to you, which you may not like to hear."
Jim Hacker: "Why should today day be any different?"
Sir Humphrey Appleby: "Minister, the traditional allocation of executive responsibilities has always been so determined as to liberate the ministerial incumbent from the administrative minutiae by devolving the managerial functions to those whose experience and qualifications have better formed them for the performance of such humble offices, thereby releasing their political overlords for the more onerous duties and profound deliberations which are the inevitable concomitant of their exalted position."
Jim Hacker: "What ever made you think I wouldn't want to hear that?"
Sir Humphrey Appleby: "I thought it might upset you."
Jim Hacker: "How could it? I didn't understand a single word."

Then it escaladed in to this on the View:

To me it’s obvious – I concur with Whoopi Goldberg.

What do you think?

----------------

Kaikki alkoi pastori Jesse Jacksonin Barack Obamaa koskevasta haastattelusta, jossa hän käytti N-sanaa.

Sitten keskustelu ajautui tähän kiistaan View-ohjelmassa:

Itselleni asia on selvä – yhdyn Whoopi Goldbergin kantaan asiasta.

Mitä mieltä sinä olet?
