Tanner:
thank you, sir.
:29:02
Godspeed to you all.
:29:03
We're counting on you.
:29:04
thank you, sir.
:29:06
Got Beijing, Rome,
Sao Paulo, Cairo, Berlin!
:29:09
Does anyone know how big
the one was
:29:10
that killed
all the dinosaurs?
:29:11
Something majestic, mysterious,
with a fanfare for the intro
:29:14
and a theme
for the longer promos.
:29:15
You want it hitting
the goddam Earth?
:29:17
Well, that's what he's saying.
Bring that up again.
:29:18
It'll scare the shit
out of them.
:29:20
Beck: We will not tolerate any
disruption ofour way of life.
:29:22
Our society will
continue as normal.
:29:25
Work will go on.
You will pay your bills.
:29:28
:29:32
There will be no hoarding.
:29:34
There will be
no sudden profiteering.
:29:36
I'm freezing all wages,
all prices.
:29:40
What a bottle of water
cost you yesterday...
:29:43
it will cost you tomorrow.
:29:46
Now we'll take
a few questions.
:29:47
Reporters: Mr President!
:29:49
Ms Lerner.
:29:50
Ahem.
:29:52
Ahem. Uh,Jenny Lerner,
M--MSNBC.
:29:55
Jenny Lerner?
:29:56
Son of a bitch.
:29:58
Um, Mr President,
:30:01
why wasn't this announcement
made sooner?
:30:03
Well, until we knew
we could build the rocket
:30:06
and the comet
could be intercepted,
:30:08
we saw no reason
to alarm the planet.
:30:10
- Sir!
- Mr President!
:30:12
Do you have another
question, Ms Lerner?
:30:14
Yeah. Um...
:30:16
Is--Is there a connection
between the comet
:30:20
and the recall of American
troops from abroad?
:30:23
Beck: Our fighting men
and women are coming home
:30:25
because we felt it prudent,
:30:26
in light of domestic
security concerns,
:30:28
to have them available.
:30:29
Although I certainly hope
we don't need to use them.
:30:31
Next question.
:30:32
Reporters: Mr President!
:30:33
Actually, Mr President,
:30:35
if--just one final
question, sir. Um...
:30:38
MSNBC has learned that
Secretary Rittenhouse
:30:43
did not leave
for the reasons
:30:44
announced by
your administration.
:30:46
In fact,
isn't it true, sir,
:30:48
that not everyone
in your administration
:30:51
is convinced that the
Messiah will save us?
