-Skippy
“First- just if I might correct a misperception, I don't think we ever said, at least I know I didn't say that there was a direct connection between September 11th and Saddam Hussein."
-George ‘Dubya’ Bush, March 21, 2006
“No sir, those exact words never escaped your lips. Instead you said this..”
-Skippy
"Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of al-Qaeda."
-George ‘Dubya’ Bush, January 28, 2003
“Which, since al-Qaeda is the group that is believed to have caused 9-11 (unless you have your tinfoil cap on too tight), that would seem to indicate that you were, well, linking Saddam and September 11. It seems that Dubya is under a lot of stress. Let’s give him a little time off and give the more intelligent group to tour Cleveland a little time to fill in..”

-Spinal Tap
“You said you listen to members of Congress, and there have been growing calls from some of those members for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld; also from his own former subordinates like U.S. Army Major General Paul Eaton, who described him in a recent editorial as ‘incompetent and tactically inept.’ Do you feel that personally you've ever gotten bad advice in the conduct of the war in Iraq? And do you believe Rumsfeld should resign?”
-Question to George ‘Dubya’ Bush, March 21, 2006
“It's such a fine line between stupid, and clever.”
-David St. Hubbins, Spinal Tap

“Will there come a day -- and I'm not asking you when, not asking for a timetable -- will there come a day when there will be no more American forces in Iraq?”
-Question to George ‘Dubya’ Bush, March 21, 2006
“Well, I don't really think that the end can be assessed as of itself as being the end because what does the end feel like? It's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe, you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how - what does that mean? How far is all the way, and then if it stops, what's stopping it, and what's behind what's stopping it? So, what's the end, you know, is my question to you.”
-David St. Hubbins, Spinal Tap
“Iraq's Interim Prime Minister said Sunday that violence is killing an average of 50 to 60 people a day, and that, ‘if this is not civil war, then God knows what civil war is.’ Do you agree with Mr. Allawi that Iraq has fallen into civil war?”

That would be a 58-percent increase. You've yet to veto a single bill, sir -- I assume that means you're satisfied with this.”
-Question to George ‘Dubya’ Bush, March 21, 2006

David St. Hubbins: I envy us.
Derek Smalls: Yeah.
David St. Hubbins: I do.
Derek Smalls: Me too”.
-This Is Spinal Tap
“Derek Smalls: That's not to say I haven't had my visionary moments. I've taken acid seventy... five, seventy-six times.
Marty DiBergi: 76?
Derek Smalls: Yeah, so I've had my moments in the sky.”
-This Is Spinal Tap
“What, sir, do you think the impact of the discussion of impeachment and censure does to you and this office, and to the nation during a time of war, and in the context of the election?”
-Question to George ‘Dubya’ Bush, March 21, 2006
