:05:00
Wake up him!
:05:05
- Hello.
- Hi.
:05:07
- It's me.
- Hi.
:05:09
- What time is it there?
- It's 2.45 in the morning.
:05:13
- I know I didn't wake you.
- As a matter of fact, you did.
:05:17
Liar.
:05:20
l have a confession to make.
:05:22
I'm sleeping next to
a beautiful, young brunette.
:05:26
You didn't lether stay up watching TV?
:05:29
- Did you?
- Of course not. You're coming home
:05:33
- Right after the luncheon?
- Yes, yes.
:05:35
- Mommy?
- Here's your mother.
:05:40
- Hi, honey!
- I miss you.
:05:44
President Whitmore's approval ratings
have slipped below 40%...
:05:48
He's good.
:05:50
Are the salad days over
for President Whitmore?
:05:54
Leadership as a Gulf War pilot
is different from leadership in politics...
:05:59
Daddy let me watch Letterman.
:06:01
Traitor.
:06:03
They elected a warrior and got a wimp.
:06:06
- Morning, George.
- Morning, Mr President.
:06:09
That game couldn't have been pretty.
:06:11
Thank you, sir.
:06:14
Connie, you're up awfully early this morning.
:06:19
They're not attacking your pollcies,
they're attacking your age.
:06:23
"Whitmore seems less like the President and
more like the orphaned child Oliver asking:
:06:28
'Please, sir, I'd like some more."'
:06:31
- That's clever.
- I'm not laughing.
:06:34
Age was not an issue when you stuck to your
guns. You were seen as young, idealistic...
:06:39
Now the message has gotten lost.
:06:42
It's too much politics, too much compromise.
:06:45
Isn't it amazing how quickly
everyone can turn against you?
:06:53
It's a fine line between standing
behind a principle and hiding behind one.
:06:58
You can tolerate a little compromise if you're
managing to get something accomplished.
