they're not attacking your policies, they're attacking your age. ". addressing congress, whitmore seems less like the president and more like the orphan child oliver asking, 'please sir, i'd like some more.'" age was never an issue when you stuck to your gun. you were thought of as young and idealistic. but the message has gotten lost. there's too much compromise, too much politics. well, the orange county register has named you one of the ten sexiest men of the year. excuse me, mr. president. it's the secretary of defense. tell them to run with it if they want to embarrass themselves. our official position is we don't have an official position. come on, people. would i keep you guys out of the loop? the press is making up their own stories at this point. isn't that a little premature? more than likely. so far the phenomenon has not caused any damage. in all likelihood it won't. everyone should remain calm. take cover where you can but the important thing is not to panic. we have a fix on three different occurrences about to appear over american cities. one is headed toward los angeles. the other two are on our eastern seaboard headed towards new york and washington, d.c. what is their position? what do we do now? yeah. i'm one of them. what do you want? this is not the time or the place to have this same old discussion. in case you haven't noticed, we're in a little bit of a crisis here. you're being paranoid. sally, take my cat with when you leave. no i'm staying here at the white house. take care. what? david? how'd you get this number? what am i looking for? how does he do that? and when is the countdown supposed to expire? what do you want me to do? i can't leave. we have to tell this to the president. david thought i was having an affair, which i wasn't. wait here. i'll be right back. i don't know how you put up with him. i'll bet. my ex-husband works in satellite communications. you saved a lot of lives. he still gets air sick, huh? in all of this i didn't get the chance to thank you two. spunky. he told you about that? love was never our problem. we're losing them. david, don't. david, please. i take it you've heard. he didn't come to this decision lightly. he's a good man. i wanted a career. didn't you ever want to be part of something special? i really have no idea. he just said to bring everyone down here. he just did. thirty seconds? isn't that cutting it a little too close? with you? i don't understand why you can't just show someone how to plant the virus, somebody trained for this kind of mission? now he gets ambitious. be careful. what if that thing gets here before we can plant the virus? but what about all the people outside? hurry, we've got to get everyone inside. are you all right? you bet it did.
