2
00:01:37,130 --> 00:01:38,496
How you doin' tonight,
officer?

3
00:01:38,498 --> 00:01:40,666
I'm gonna need you
to get outta the car.

4
00:01:44,103 --> 00:01:45,535
Come on.
Let's get out.

5
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,929
- Move!
- Go! Go!

6
00:02:10,895 --> 00:02:12,065
Move! It's clear.

7
00:02:13,399 --> 00:02:16,232
- Move, move, move.
- Clear!

8
00:02:16,234 --> 00:02:18,569
- Let's go, let's go!
- Move! Move! Move! Move!

9
00:02:23,407 --> 00:02:25,274
A plane just struck
the Pentagon.

10
00:02:31,617 --> 00:02:33,818
Let's make sure
those phone lines are working.

11
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:35,118
Phones are go, sir.

12
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,719
The SVTC.
Let's contact the FAA,

13
00:02:36,721 --> 00:02:37,987
find out how many planes are
in the air.

14
00:02:37,989 --> 00:02:39,155
<i>Yes, sir.</i>

15
00:02:39,157 --> 00:02:40,891
<i>Let's get
these televisions working.</i>

16
00:02:40,893 --> 00:02:42,725
May I get the president
on the line, please?

17
00:02:42,727 --> 00:02:44,660
We got planes in the air
and nowhere for them to land.

18
00:02:44,662 --> 00:02:46,262
I still have
one plane unaccounted for

19
00:02:46,264 --> 00:02:47,529
flying over Pennsylvania.

20
00:02:47,531 --> 00:02:48,665
I need permission
for them to land

21
00:02:48,667 --> 00:02:50,600
at a Canadian airport.

22
00:02:50,602 --> 00:02:52,635
<i>...very large
plane. It was going fast.</i>

23
00:02:52,637 --> 00:02:54,070
Flying over
Pennsylvania on course.

24
00:02:54,072 --> 00:02:56,040
And three other planes
are unaccounted for.

25
00:02:56,042 --> 00:02:57,874
I'm seeing five planes
unaccounted for.

26
00:02:57,876 --> 00:02:59,443
No! Scratch that.
I'm seeing four!

27
00:03:01,913 --> 00:03:03,414
I have NORAD
on the line.

28
00:03:03,416 --> 00:03:05,685
That is correct.
He is. That is correct.

29
00:03:06,552 --> 00:03:09,621
Mr. Vice President,
POTUS on line one, sir.

30
00:03:13,458 --> 00:03:14,559
Mr. President.

31
00:03:17,728 --> 00:03:20,929
The situation
is, uh, extremely fluid.

32
00:03:20,931 --> 00:03:22,868
I strongly recommend
you stay in the air.

33
00:03:23,901 --> 00:03:28,004
I have, uh, sequestered
congressional leadership.

34
00:03:28,006 --> 00:03:29,706
Okay, then.

35
00:03:29,708 --> 00:03:30,807
Sir, Donald Rumsfeld is

36
00:03:30,809 --> 00:03:32,541
at the Pentagon on line three.

37
00:03:32,543 --> 00:03:35,111
- That?
- Mm-hmm. Yes, sir.

38
00:03:35,113 --> 00:03:37,581
<i>Dick, are there
still passenger planes in the air?</i>

39
00:03:37,583 --> 00:03:38,782
<i>I need rules of engagement.</i>

40
00:03:38,784 --> 00:03:40,620
Let's get the President
back on line, sir.

41
00:03:42,321 --> 00:03:45,655
You have authorization
to shoot down

42
00:03:45,657 --> 00:03:48,325
any aircraft deemed a threat.

43
00:03:48,327 --> 00:03:49,825
<i>Presidential authority?</i>

44
00:03:49,827 --> 00:03:52,362
That is correct.
All orders are UNODIR.

45
00:03:52,364 --> 00:03:54,463
"UNODIR," sir?

46
00:03:54,465 --> 00:03:56,668
Unless otherwise directed.

47
00:03:59,804 --> 00:04:02,672
<i>By all accounts
of what people saw</i>

48
00:04:02,674 --> 00:04:06,142
<i>in that room
on that terrible day,</i>

49
00:04:06,144 --> 00:04:07,814
<i>there was confusion...</i>

50
00:04:09,214 --> 00:04:10,214
<i>fear...</i>

51
00:04:11,549 --> 00:04:12,885
<i>uncertainty.</i>

52
00:04:15,321 --> 00:04:17,520
<i>But Dick Cheney saw
something else</i>

53
00:04:17,522 --> 00:04:18,857
<i>that no one else did.</i>

54
00:04:21,726 --> 00:04:23,562
<i>He saw an opportunity.</i>

55
00:04:27,765 --> 00:04:31,801
<i>As the world becomes
more and more confusing,</i>

56
00:04:31,803 --> 00:04:33,904
<i>we tend to focus on the things</i>

57
00:04:33,906 --> 00:04:36,608
<i>that are right there
in front of us...</i>

58
00:04:38,377 --> 00:04:40,911
<i>while ignoring
the massive forces</i>

59
00:04:40,913 --> 00:04:44,750
<i>that actually change
and shape our lives.</i>

60
00:04:45,851 --> 00:04:49,618
<i>And with people working
longer and longer hours,</i>

61
00:04:49,620 --> 00:04:51,887
<i>for less and less,</i>

62
00:04:51,889 --> 00:04:53,589
<i>when we do have free time,</i>

63
00:04:53,591 --> 00:04:55,758
<i>the last thing we want is</i>

64
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,361
<i>complicated analysis
of our government,</i>

65
00:04:58,363 --> 00:04:59,695
<i>lobbying,</i>

66
00:04:59,697 --> 00:05:02,198
<i>international
trade agreements,</i>

67
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,366
<i>and tax bills.</i>

68
00:05:07,940 --> 00:05:09,606
<i>So it's no surprise</i>

69
00:05:09,608 --> 00:05:11,976
<i>that when a monotone,</i>

70
00:05:11,978 --> 00:05:16,111
<i>bureaucratic vice president
came to power,</i>

71
00:05:16,113 --> 00:05:17,613
<i>we hardly noticed...</i>

72
00:05:20,151 --> 00:05:22,419
<i>...as he achieved
a position of authority</i>

73
00:05:22,421 --> 00:05:23,786
<i>that very few leaders</i>

74
00:05:23,788 --> 00:05:26,993
<i>in the history of America
ever have...</i>

75
00:05:28,926 --> 00:05:30,827
- Vice President, for your...
- These tax cuts are...

76
00:05:30,829 --> 00:05:32,661
- ...get this started?
- That's for your fucking...

77
00:05:32,663 --> 00:05:34,897
I'm fucking dying!

78
00:05:34,899 --> 00:05:38,000
<i>Forever changing
the course of history</i>

79
00:05:38,002 --> 00:05:41,106
<i>for millions
and millions of lives.</i>

80
00:05:42,974 --> 00:05:46,209
<i>And he did it like a ghost,</i>

81
00:05:46,211 --> 00:05:50,313
<i>with most people
having no idea who he is</i>

82
00:05:50,315 --> 00:05:51,950
<i>or where he came from.</i>

83
00:06:11,002 --> 00:06:16,142
<i>How does a man
go on to become who he is?</i>

84
00:06:17,808 --> 00:06:22,512
<i>Well, it starts in 1963...</i>

85
00:06:22,514 --> 00:06:23,979
<i>when Dick's best girl, Lynne,</i>

86
00:06:23,981 --> 00:06:27,118
<i>was getting straight A's
at Colorado College.</i>

87
00:06:31,990 --> 00:06:35,661
<i>Lynne had helped Dick get
a scholarship at Yale...</i>

88
00:06:37,829 --> 00:06:42,532
<i>where he did way more
drinking than class attending.</i>

89
00:06:44,536 --> 00:06:47,206
<i>Pretty soon,
Dick got the boot.</i>

90
00:06:58,416 --> 00:07:00,017
<i>Back then,
they would've called</i>

91
00:07:00,019 --> 00:07:02,721
<i>a guy like him
a ne'er-do-well.</i>

92
00:07:04,688 --> 00:07:06,755
<i>In today's parlance,</i>

93
00:07:06,757 --> 00:07:08,960
<i>they would just call him
a dirtbag.</i>

94
00:07:12,264 --> 00:07:13,733
Man down!

95
00:07:18,471 --> 00:07:20,038
Ooh!

96
00:07:24,041 --> 00:07:26,176
His leg looks like
an Elvis dance move.

97
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,479
Somebody give that poor son
of a bitch a shot of whiskey.

98
00:07:30,481 --> 00:07:32,183
All right, back to work.

99
00:07:32,950 --> 00:07:35,387
I said, back to work.

100
00:07:38,322 --> 00:07:41,390
Take him into town,
put five dollars in his pocket.

101
00:07:41,392 --> 00:07:42,859
Find another man for tomorrow.

102
00:07:42,861 --> 00:07:45,527
Somebody help.

103
00:07:45,529 --> 00:07:47,731
You got a problem, Cheney?

104
00:07:47,733 --> 00:07:49,101
No, sir.

105
00:08:02,481 --> 00:08:03,813
Huh?

106
00:08:03,815 --> 00:08:05,451
Are we becoming friends?

107
00:08:06,584 --> 00:08:08,551
Will you stop touching me?

108
00:08:08,553 --> 00:08:09,820
What?

109
00:08:09,822 --> 00:08:12,388
What are you gonna do
about it, Mr. Yale?

110
00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:14,258
Huh? Whoo!

111
00:08:15,159 --> 00:08:18,428
The fuck you gonna do
about it, Mr. Yale? Come on!

112
00:08:18,430 --> 00:08:20,099
There you go.

113
00:08:51,829 --> 00:08:53,065
Two times.

114
00:08:54,166 --> 00:08:55,798
Two times!

115
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,634
I have to drag you
out of that jail

116
00:08:57,636 --> 00:09:00,971
like a filthy hobo.

117
00:09:00,973 --> 00:09:02,337
I'm sorry, Lynne.

118
00:09:02,339 --> 00:09:03,441
What?

119
00:09:05,076 --> 00:09:07,644
- What did you just say?
- I'm sorry, Lynnie.

120
00:09:07,646 --> 00:09:09,515
You're sorry?
Don't call me "Lynnie."

121
00:09:12,483 --> 00:09:13,886
You're sorry.

122
00:09:16,021 --> 00:09:18,654
One time is "I'm sorry."

123
00:09:18,656 --> 00:09:22,393
Two times makes me think that
I've picked the wrong man.

124
00:09:23,628 --> 00:09:25,761
You already got your ass
thrown out of Yale

125
00:09:25,763 --> 00:09:28,731
for drinking and fighting.

126
00:09:28,733 --> 00:09:29,933
And now you're just going
to be a lush

127
00:09:29,935 --> 00:09:31,500
that hangs power lines
for the state?

128
00:09:31,502 --> 00:09:32,901
Are you gonna live
in a trailer?

129
00:09:32,903 --> 00:09:34,170
We're gonna have ten kids?
Is that the plan?

130
00:09:34,172 --> 00:09:35,371
Can we discuss
this later, please?

131
00:09:35,373 --> 00:09:36,840
No, we're gonna
discuss this right now

132
00:09:36,842 --> 00:09:38,707
while you smell like vomit

133
00:09:38,709 --> 00:09:40,078
and cheap booze.

134
00:09:40,911 --> 00:09:42,879
- Does Dick want some coffee?
- What?

135
00:09:42,881 --> 00:09:44,414
Mom, get out!

136
00:09:44,416 --> 00:09:46,582
Get out.
"Does Dick want some coffee?"

137
00:09:46,584 --> 00:09:48,554
Jesus Christ!

138
00:09:49,853 --> 00:09:51,456
Okay. Here's my plan.

139
00:09:52,891 --> 00:09:54,126
All right?

140
00:09:55,127 --> 00:09:59,861
Either you stand up straight...

141
00:09:59,863 --> 00:10:02,765
and you get
your back straight...

142
00:10:02,767 --> 00:10:05,769
and you have the courage
to become someone,

143
00:10:05,771 --> 00:10:07,303
or I'm gone.

144
00:10:07,305 --> 00:10:08,505
I know a dozen guys

145
00:10:08,507 --> 00:10:10,476
and a few professors at school
who would date me.

146
00:10:11,443 --> 00:10:12,675
I love you, Lynne.

147
00:10:12,677 --> 00:10:13,978
Then prove it!

148
00:10:15,247 --> 00:10:16,815
Prove it!

149
00:10:19,550 --> 00:10:20,853
I can't...

150
00:10:22,153 --> 00:10:24,220
go to a big
Ivy League school,

151
00:10:24,222 --> 00:10:27,090
and I can't run a company
or be mayor.

152
00:10:27,092 --> 00:10:29,625
That's just the way
the world is for a girl.

153
00:10:29,627 --> 00:10:30,628
I need you.

154
00:10:31,530 --> 00:10:37,203
And right now you are
a big, fat, piss-soaked zero.

155
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,975
I've, I've seen my mom
waitin' up all night

156
00:10:44,977 --> 00:10:46,208
for my father to get home.

157
00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:48,978
And I've seen my father
drunk in this house

158
00:10:48,980 --> 00:10:51,047
and raising his voice
and way worse,

159
00:10:51,049 --> 00:10:54,384
and I am not dancing
that dance anymore. I'm not.

160
00:10:54,386 --> 00:10:56,088
You know why I fuck her?

161
00:11:02,895 --> 00:11:04,163
I'm not.

162
00:11:05,430 --> 00:11:06,665
So can you change?

163
00:11:07,632 --> 00:11:11,070
Can you change, or am I
wasting my goddamn time?

164
00:11:18,276 --> 00:11:20,579
<i>I won't ever
disappoint you again, Lynne.</i>

165
00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:54,504
You were chosen
because of your hard work,

166
00:12:54,506 --> 00:12:56,675
your diligence,
and dedication.

167
00:12:57,443 --> 00:13:02,044
Stated simply, you are
America's best and brightest.

168
00:13:06,517 --> 00:13:10,488
So let's go forward and learn
and be of service.

169
00:13:11,790 --> 00:13:13,255
God bless you all

170
00:13:13,257 --> 00:13:17,660
and God bless
this great nation.

171
00:13:17,662 --> 00:13:22,097
And now, I'd like to introduce
some... a young man from Illinois

172
00:13:22,099 --> 00:13:23,899
who has done quite well
for himself

173
00:13:23,901 --> 00:13:25,235
here in the Capitol.

174
00:13:25,237 --> 00:13:29,038
Representative Donald Rumsfeld.

175
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:42,485
Did Bob tell you that this
internship is a great honor?

176
00:13:42,487 --> 00:13:43,689
Huh?

177
00:13:45,123 --> 00:13:46,521
Did he?

178
00:13:46,523 --> 00:13:47,658
Huh? Yeah?

179
00:13:48,792 --> 00:13:51,363
Well, it's not.

180
00:13:52,164 --> 00:13:54,930
It's what we called
in the Navy a "shit detail."

181
00:13:56,434 --> 00:13:58,168
<i>Donald Rumsfeld,</i>

182
00:13:58,170 --> 00:14:00,770
<i>or "Rummy,"
as they called him,</i>

183
00:14:00,772 --> 00:14:04,340
<i>was the former captain of
the Princeton wrestling team</i>

184
00:14:04,342 --> 00:14:07,312
<i>and an elite navy jet pilot.</i>

185
00:14:08,079 --> 00:14:11,114
<i>Most congressmen
use their power like an axe.</i>

186
00:14:11,116 --> 00:14:12,582
Best and brightest.

187
00:14:12,584 --> 00:14:15,851
<i>Rumsfeld,
on the other hand, used his...</i>

188
00:14:15,853 --> 00:14:16,887
Where?

189
00:14:17,689 --> 00:14:20,590
<i>...like a master
of the butterfly knife.</i>

190
00:14:20,592 --> 00:14:23,326
<i>And, like any master,
if you got in his way,</i>

191
00:14:23,328 --> 00:14:25,061
<i>he would cut you.</i>

192
00:14:26,397 --> 00:14:28,930
This can be
a great opportunity.

193
00:14:28,932 --> 00:14:31,067
An opportunity to work

194
00:14:31,069 --> 00:14:34,136
in the hallways
of decision-making

195
00:14:34,138 --> 00:14:37,274
in the most powerful country
in the goddamn world.

196
00:14:38,075 --> 00:14:39,476
And if that doesn't give you
a hard-on,

197
00:14:39,478 --> 00:14:41,177
I don't know what will.

198
00:14:41,179 --> 00:14:44,914
Sorry to the few ladies
in the room.

199
00:14:44,916 --> 00:14:48,016
This program didn't used
to have girls, and now it does.

200
00:14:48,018 --> 00:14:50,086
Anyway, I'm Don.

201
00:14:50,088 --> 00:14:51,423
Whatever you do...

202
00:14:52,824 --> 00:14:55,558
don't work for Bob over here.

203
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,394
He is the most boring
son of a bitch in D.C.

204
00:14:58,396 --> 00:14:59,698
Isn't that right, Bob?

205
00:15:00,831 --> 00:15:02,164
All right, that's it.

206
00:15:02,166 --> 00:15:04,366
Go get a congressman
a cup of coffee.

207
00:15:04,368 --> 00:15:07,035
And if his wife calls,
he's always in a meeting.

208
00:15:07,037 --> 00:15:09,539
All right, that's it. Scat.

209
00:15:13,878 --> 00:15:15,111
Hey, I'm Alan.

210
00:15:15,113 --> 00:15:16,313
You're the other guy
from the University

211
00:15:16,315 --> 00:15:18,047
- of Wisconsin, right?
- Right.

212
00:15:18,049 --> 00:15:20,348
Uh, so one of us
is supposed to start

213
00:15:20,350 --> 00:15:22,250
with a Democrat
and the other a Republican.

214
00:15:22,252 --> 00:15:24,486
Do you care
if I go with the Dem?

215
00:15:24,488 --> 00:15:27,291
'Cause I did a lot of work
with the DNC on campus, so...

216
00:15:28,059 --> 00:15:32,028
Um, what party is,
uh, the guy we just heard?

217
00:15:32,030 --> 00:15:34,463
Well, there are three penises
walking down the street.

218
00:15:34,465 --> 00:15:36,031
Yeah, you,
and who are the other two?

219
00:15:36,033 --> 00:15:39,203
Rumsfeld is a Republican.

220
00:15:41,272 --> 00:15:43,275
Perfect. 'Cause, uh...

221
00:15:45,075 --> 00:15:46,277
that's what I am.

222
00:15:59,523 --> 00:16:02,193
Don't lurk.
Come in, damn it.

223
00:16:03,461 --> 00:16:07,896
Um, Dick Cheney,
reporting for work.

224
00:16:07,898 --> 00:16:09,298
You're congressional relations

225
00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:11,333
for my Office
of Economic Opportunity,

226
00:16:11,335 --> 00:16:13,302
and you will assist me
in my job

227
00:16:13,304 --> 00:16:14,773
as counselor to the president.

228
00:16:16,807 --> 00:16:17,808
Right.

229
00:16:19,210 --> 00:16:20,443
Jesus Christ,
you want me

230
00:16:20,445 --> 00:16:21,943
to pin your mittens
to your sleeves

231
00:16:21,945 --> 00:16:22,978
so you don't fuckin' lose 'em?

232
00:16:22,980 --> 00:16:24,114
- Go.
- Yes, sir.

233
00:16:24,882 --> 00:16:28,217
Oh, and Cheney, your two DUIs
came up on your transcript.

234
00:16:28,219 --> 00:16:29,851
Don't worry.
I vouched for you.

235
00:16:29,853 --> 00:16:31,187
Thank you, sir.

236
00:16:31,189 --> 00:16:32,654
No, thanks are when
your neighbor Dottie

237
00:16:32,656 --> 00:16:34,660
pulls your pud
for the first time.

238
00:16:36,127 --> 00:16:37,660
You owe me.

239
00:16:37,662 --> 00:16:39,297
- Yes, sir.
- Go!

240
00:16:42,099 --> 00:16:44,867
The first thing
our department did

241
00:16:44,869 --> 00:16:47,870
was to conduct
a sweeping audit

242
00:16:47,872 --> 00:16:52,007
at the population distribution
across the nation.

243
00:16:52,009 --> 00:16:53,643
You will see that

244
00:16:53,645 --> 00:16:56,111
the Office of Economic
Opportunity benefits...

245
00:16:56,113 --> 00:16:58,247
You're Rumsfeld's
lackey, right?

246
00:16:58,249 --> 00:16:59,715
Make sure he sees this.

247
00:16:59,717 --> 00:17:01,617
We gotta get that
on Nixon's desk, huh?

248
00:17:01,619 --> 00:17:04,754
<i>Roger Ailes,
founder of Fox News.</i>

249
00:17:04,756 --> 00:17:07,524
<i>He first pitched the idea
as Conservative News</i>

250
00:17:07,526 --> 00:17:10,192
<i>when he worked for Nixon
as a media consultant.</i>

251
00:17:10,194 --> 00:17:12,026
Hey, Don.

252
00:17:12,028 --> 00:17:14,697
Roger wants Nixon to start
a Republican news TV network.

253
00:17:14,699 --> 00:17:18,400
Forget it. Roger knows TV,
but he doesn't know politics.

254
00:17:18,402 --> 00:17:20,836
So I would do this
flaming baton trick

255
00:17:20,838 --> 00:17:24,239
And Dick would wait backstage
with a bucket of water.

256
00:17:24,241 --> 00:17:25,507
So I'm at the state finals,

257
00:17:25,509 --> 00:17:27,776
and I throw up the baton,
and...

258
00:17:27,778 --> 00:17:29,044
it doesn't come down.

259
00:17:30,614 --> 00:17:33,649
Cheney! Oh.
Where did you find her?

260
00:17:33,651 --> 00:17:35,485
It is doing nothing but damage

261
00:17:35,487 --> 00:17:38,286
to our private
health care institutions.

262
00:17:38,288 --> 00:17:40,488
But I still got second place.

263
00:17:40,490 --> 00:17:42,425
White families.
Males.

264
00:17:42,427 --> 00:17:44,427
Women. Hispanics.
Minorities...

265
00:17:44,429 --> 00:17:45,964
You're quiet. I like that.

266
00:17:46,765 --> 00:17:49,797
You don't go blabbing about
what cards you have.

267
00:17:49,799 --> 00:17:52,636
I missed my flush draw
about a month ago,

268
00:17:53,438 --> 00:17:56,305
but everybody still seems
to think I have pocket kings

269
00:17:56,307 --> 00:17:57,739
except maybe fucking Haldeman.

270
00:17:57,741 --> 00:18:00,377
Oh, I mostly play Hearts,
so I'm not...

271
00:18:00,379 --> 00:18:02,044
No, no, no.

272
00:18:02,046 --> 00:18:03,946
<i>For a man
like Donald Rumsfeld,</i>

273
00:18:03,948 --> 00:18:08,016
<i>he only wanted three things
from his lackey.</i>

274
00:18:08,018 --> 00:18:10,421
<i>He had to keep his mouth shut.</i>

275
00:18:11,421 --> 00:18:12,958
<i>Do what he was told.</i>

276
00:18:14,426 --> 00:18:18,060
<i>And always, always be loyal.</i>

277
00:18:18,062 --> 00:18:19,829
What it means is
Nixon likes me,

278
00:18:19,831 --> 00:18:20,763
but his circle hates me.

279
00:18:20,765 --> 00:18:22,130
No, I'm sure
that's not true.

280
00:18:22,132 --> 00:18:23,932
So, what's it gonna be?

281
00:18:23,934 --> 00:18:25,802
Is it a "yes" or a "no"?

282
00:18:25,804 --> 00:18:27,503
It's a "yes."

283
00:18:27,505 --> 00:18:29,339
You don't even know
what the question is, do you?

284
00:18:29,341 --> 00:18:32,809
- I'm assuming it's to...
- No, no, no. It's okay.

285
00:18:32,811 --> 00:18:34,677
That's exactly the kinda "yes"
I was looking for.

286
00:18:34,679 --> 00:18:37,679
<i>Cheney had always
been a so-so student</i>

287
00:18:37,681 --> 00:18:39,482
<i>and a mediocre athlete.</i>

288
00:18:39,484 --> 00:18:44,152
<i>But now, finally, he had found
his life's calling.</i>

289
00:18:44,154 --> 00:18:49,592
<i>He would be a dedicated
and humble servant to power.</i>

290
00:18:49,594 --> 00:18:50,828
Here's your new office.

291
00:18:51,595 --> 00:18:52,961
No windows,
but all you'd see

292
00:18:52,963 --> 00:18:55,433
are a bunch of hippies
flipping off Nixon.

293
00:18:56,901 --> 00:18:58,070
All right, then.

294
00:19:02,473 --> 00:19:03,906
<i>Now, at this point,</i>

295
00:19:03,908 --> 00:19:07,713
<i>you're probably wondering
who exactly I am.</i>

296
00:19:08,779 --> 00:19:10,845
<i>Well, let me introduce myself.</i>

297
00:19:10,847 --> 00:19:12,348
My name is Kurt.

298
00:19:12,350 --> 00:19:15,417
<i>My favorite football team
is the Steelers,</i>

299
00:19:15,419 --> 00:19:18,955
<i>and me and my son,
we love SpongeBob.</i>

300
00:19:18,957 --> 00:19:20,688
<i>And if you're wondering
how I know</i>

301
00:19:20,690 --> 00:19:23,360
<i>so much about Dick Cheney,</i>

302
00:19:23,362 --> 00:19:27,196
<i>well, let's just say
we're kind of related.</i>

303
00:19:27,198 --> 00:19:28,834
<i>We'll get to that later.</i>

304
00:19:32,536 --> 00:19:33,701
<i>The Rifleman!</i>

305
00:19:40,010 --> 00:19:41,244
- Hello?
- Lynnie,

306
00:19:41,246 --> 00:19:43,047
guess where
I'm calling from.

307
00:19:45,583 --> 00:19:48,085
I am so proud of you
right now, Dick Cheney.

308
00:19:48,886 --> 00:19:51,989
<i>I knew I picked the right man.
I knew it even when I didn't.</i>

309
00:19:53,892 --> 00:19:55,861
We did it.

310
00:19:56,661 --> 00:19:59,094
Have you seen Nixon? Hmm?

311
00:19:59,096 --> 00:20:01,397
Hmm? Hmm?

312
00:20:01,399 --> 00:20:03,832
I did. I met him.
I shook his hand.

313
00:20:03,834 --> 00:20:07,003
Oh, my gosh.
And he called you

314
00:20:07,005 --> 00:20:09,037
- He gave me that, uh...
- <i>By name, like he actually...</i>

315
00:20:09,039 --> 00:20:10,841
...that impish smile of his.

316
00:20:11,609 --> 00:20:13,508
<i>I gotta pinch myself.</i>

317
00:20:15,380 --> 00:20:16,879
Pardon my French.

318
00:20:16,881 --> 00:20:20,949
It is the best fucking feeling
in the world.

319
00:20:20,951 --> 00:20:24,353
I can only imagine.
I am so proud of you.

320
00:20:24,355 --> 00:20:26,354
- I love you.
- <i>We are proud of you.</i>

321
00:20:26,356 --> 00:20:28,424
Your girls are proud of you.
Are you proud of your daddy?

322
00:20:28,426 --> 00:20:29,925
Yes.

323
00:20:29,927 --> 00:20:31,960
<i>Can you say you're proud
of your daddy?</i>

324
00:20:31,962 --> 00:20:33,295
<i>My daddy.</i>

325
00:20:33,297 --> 00:20:34,530
<i>You're proud of your daddy.</i>

326
00:20:34,532 --> 00:20:36,299
<i>Oh, my goodness.</i>

327
00:20:54,552 --> 00:20:56,017
Dick Cheney's office.

328
00:20:56,019 --> 00:20:59,621
So, now that I'm not just
flipping cards,

329
00:20:59,623 --> 00:21:01,223
I have a few ideas.

330
00:21:01,225 --> 00:21:02,227
Stop.

331
00:21:03,228 --> 00:21:04,228
See that door?

332
00:21:05,296 --> 00:21:07,330
To Kissinger's office?

333
00:21:07,332 --> 00:21:08,332
That's right.

334
00:21:09,065 --> 00:21:11,167
I happen to know that Nixon
is in there right now.

335
00:21:11,169 --> 00:21:12,735
Now, why would Nixon

336
00:21:12,737 --> 00:21:14,769
not be meeting Kissinger
in the Oval Office?

337
00:21:14,771 --> 00:21:15,938
He's having
a conversation

338
00:21:15,940 --> 00:21:17,372
he doesn't want to go
on the record?

339
00:21:17,374 --> 00:21:18,807
Very good.

340
00:21:18,809 --> 00:21:20,578
What is the conversation?

341
00:21:21,546 --> 00:21:22,811
We're going to bomb Cambodia.

342
00:21:22,813 --> 00:21:24,580
Well, that's impossible.

343
00:21:24,582 --> 00:21:26,248
That needs approval
by Congress.

344
00:21:26,250 --> 00:21:27,749
I'm over there every day.

345
00:21:27,751 --> 00:21:29,752
Oh, fuck Congress.
Unless you're in it.

346
00:21:29,754 --> 00:21:32,388
Then it's the greatest
deliberative body on earth.

347
00:21:32,390 --> 00:21:34,023
But we're not, so fuck it.

348
00:21:34,025 --> 00:21:35,925
But didn't the president
campaign on ending the...

349
00:21:35,927 --> 00:21:38,029
Listen to me, listen to me.

350
00:21:39,463 --> 00:21:40,862
Because of the discussion

351
00:21:40,864 --> 00:21:42,899
that Nixon and Kissinger
are having right now

352
00:21:42,901 --> 00:21:44,632
behind that door

353
00:21:44,634 --> 00:21:46,468
five feet away from us,

354
00:21:46,470 --> 00:21:49,205
in a couple of days,
10,000 miles away,

355
00:21:49,207 --> 00:21:51,640
a rain of 750-pound bombs

356
00:21:51,642 --> 00:21:53,542
dropped from B-52s

357
00:21:53,544 --> 00:21:54,944
at 20,000 feet,

358
00:21:54,946 --> 00:21:58,183
will hit villages and towns
all across Cambodia.

359
00:21:59,583 --> 00:22:00,884
<i>Thousands will die.</i>

360
00:22:01,885 --> 00:22:04,689
<i>And the world will change,
for better or worse.</i>

361
00:22:12,796 --> 00:22:14,663
That is the kind of power
that exists

362
00:22:14,665 --> 00:22:16,800
in this squat little
ugly building.

363
00:22:18,236 --> 00:22:21,272
Screw Kissinger.
He's overrated. Let's go.

364
00:22:26,776 --> 00:22:28,544
<i>So, what are we...</i>

365
00:22:28,546 --> 00:22:30,946
- Um, you know, I mean...
- Spit it out.

366
00:22:30,948 --> 00:22:33,082
- What are you trying to say?
- Are we against spending?

367
00:22:33,084 --> 00:22:34,084
What do we believe?

368
00:22:35,152 --> 00:22:36,621
What do we believe?

369
00:22:47,363 --> 00:22:49,098
"What do we believe?"

370
00:22:49,100 --> 00:22:52,234
Oh. That's very good.

371
00:22:52,236 --> 00:22:53,701
"What do we believe?"

372
00:23:01,112 --> 00:23:03,281
Oh, shit!

373
00:23:11,421 --> 00:23:12,720
Like that,
through there.

374
00:23:12,722 --> 00:23:14,489
- You wanna try?
- Yeah.

375
00:23:14,491 --> 00:23:16,292
You find out
what the fish want.

376
00:23:16,294 --> 00:23:18,460
In this case, it's a worm.

377
00:23:18,462 --> 00:23:21,464
And then, uh,
we use it to catch him.

378
00:23:21,466 --> 00:23:22,531
Look it. Look it.

379
00:23:22,533 --> 00:23:24,300
Dada. Dada, look.

380
00:23:24,302 --> 00:23:25,668
The family gets to eat.

381
00:23:25,670 --> 00:23:28,339
Is it a good trick
we're playing, for the worms?

382
00:23:29,140 --> 00:23:31,376
It's not good or bad.
It's fishing.

383
00:23:32,442 --> 00:23:33,941
I don't want this one hurt.

384
00:23:33,943 --> 00:23:35,511
<i>Dick had taken a job</i>

385
00:23:35,513 --> 00:23:39,081
<i>as a political consultant
for a large financial firm,</i>

386
00:23:39,083 --> 00:23:41,418
<i>where he was finally making
good money.</i>

387
00:23:42,186 --> 00:23:45,220
<i>He took the job
because Nixon's inner circle</i>

388
00:23:45,222 --> 00:23:48,122
<i>had had enough
of Donald Rumsfeld.</i>

389
00:23:48,124 --> 00:23:49,725
I'm out.

390
00:23:49,727 --> 00:23:51,459
They're sending me
to Brussels.

391
00:23:51,461 --> 00:23:52,928
What?

392
00:23:52,930 --> 00:23:57,367
Nixon is making me
permanent ambassador to NATO.

393
00:23:57,369 --> 00:23:58,766
<i>Or as he called it...</i>

394
00:23:58,768 --> 00:24:00,436
It's a fuck-off assignment.

395
00:24:00,438 --> 00:24:01,670
Kissinger and Haldeman won.

396
00:24:01,672 --> 00:24:03,037
<i>Why don't you come with me?</i>

397
00:24:03,039 --> 00:24:06,976
I got a four
and a seven-year-old, Don.

398
00:24:06,978 --> 00:24:08,777
Tell Don we are not moving

399
00:24:08,779 --> 00:24:10,946
just because everyone
at the White House hates him.

400
00:24:10,948 --> 00:24:12,214
Good boy!

401
00:24:12,216 --> 00:24:14,550
I taught you well
these past couple of years.

402
00:24:14,552 --> 00:24:15,920
I'm sorry, Don.

403
00:24:18,189 --> 00:24:19,354
I really am.

404
00:24:19,356 --> 00:24:20,456
<i>Don't worry.</i>

405
00:24:20,458 --> 00:24:22,024
I'm like bedbugs.

406
00:24:22,026 --> 00:24:24,359
You'll have to burn
the mattress to get rid of me.

407
00:24:25,830 --> 00:24:28,429
<i>Dick was becoming
sharper and sharper</i>

408
00:24:28,431 --> 00:24:30,265
<i>as a D.C. insider.</i>

409
00:24:30,267 --> 00:24:33,002
<i>And Lynne had started
to write articles</i>

410
00:24:33,004 --> 00:24:35,437
<i>and explore ideas
for her first novel.</i>

411
00:24:35,439 --> 00:24:36,807
Dick.

412
00:24:38,042 --> 00:24:39,076
Dick.

413
00:24:40,044 --> 00:24:44,647
<i>Then she received news
from back home in Casper.</i>

414
00:24:49,886 --> 00:24:51,454
<i>The Lord is my shepherd.</i>

415
00:24:51,456 --> 00:24:52,553
<i>I shall not want.</i>

416
00:24:52,555 --> 00:24:53,956
<i>Lynne's mother Edna,</i>

417
00:24:53,958 --> 00:24:56,391
<i>who had avoided the water
her whole life,</i>

418
00:24:56,393 --> 00:24:59,828
<i>was found drowned
in the local Casper lake.</i>

419
00:24:59,830 --> 00:25:01,197
<i>...paths of righteousness.</i>

420
00:25:01,199 --> 00:25:03,931
<i>They said her
and Wayne, Lynne's dad,</i>

421
00:25:03,933 --> 00:25:07,236
<i>had had a nasty argument
an hour before.</i>

422
00:25:07,238 --> 00:25:08,707
She doesn't swim, Dick.

423
00:25:09,540 --> 00:25:11,806
- My mother doesn't swim.
- What happened?

424
00:25:11,808 --> 00:25:15,009
She never swam.
I don't... I don't know.

425
00:25:15,011 --> 00:25:17,014
She just never swims,
and then...

426
00:25:18,114 --> 00:25:20,815
<i>There was never
a serious investigation</i>

427
00:25:20,817 --> 00:25:22,918
<i>into Lynne's mom's death.</i>

428
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,920
You wanna see me do
a handstand right here?

429
00:25:24,922 --> 00:25:28,190
- No. Don't. Dad. Dad.
- I can do it right here.

430
00:25:28,192 --> 00:25:29,824
They're getting so big.

431
00:25:29,826 --> 00:25:31,325
You're gonna be
all right, Dad.

432
00:25:31,327 --> 00:25:33,129
- Yeah. Yeah.
- They're big girls.

433
00:25:33,131 --> 00:25:34,196
God, Dad...

434
00:25:34,198 --> 00:25:35,832
So listen,
after this we should...

435
00:25:35,834 --> 00:25:37,432
What should we do?
Should we go get some food?

436
00:25:37,434 --> 00:25:38,467
Girls...

437
00:25:38,469 --> 00:25:39,668
Dick, they were saying
maybe...

438
00:25:39,670 --> 00:25:41,238
Why don't you go
to the car?

439
00:25:42,539 --> 00:25:46,076
Come on, girls, let's listen
to your father, all right?

440
00:25:53,317 --> 00:25:57,319
They're gettin' so beautiful,
Dick. It's amazing.

441
00:25:57,321 --> 00:25:58,456
- Mmm.
- Just...

442
00:26:01,926 --> 00:26:04,429
You catching any fish?

443
00:26:10,934 --> 00:26:12,302
How are you, Dick?

444
00:26:14,838 --> 00:26:16,473
Things going good in D.C.?

445
00:26:19,242 --> 00:26:22,479
Don't ever go near
my daughters or my wife again.

446
00:26:31,788 --> 00:26:33,056
Hmm.

447
00:26:41,265 --> 00:26:42,367
Big shot!

448
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,837
"Big shot in D.C." Dick.

449
00:26:54,745 --> 00:26:56,014
Sir?

450
00:26:57,981 --> 00:26:59,614
- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.

451
00:27:13,930 --> 00:27:16,364
So, uh,
what do you got?

452
00:27:16,366 --> 00:27:17,401
Page eight.

453
00:27:22,506 --> 00:27:24,306
Hassan Mustafa Nasr,

454
00:27:24,308 --> 00:27:26,543
a cleric
based in Milan, Italy.

455
00:27:27,344 --> 00:27:30,211
He's a member
of al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya,

456
00:27:30,213 --> 00:27:32,113
the group that killed
Anwar Sadat.

457
00:27:32,115 --> 00:27:34,082
That's the blind sheikh,
right?

458
00:27:34,084 --> 00:27:35,784
There's some debate at Langley

459
00:27:35,786 --> 00:27:38,820
on whether
they're a threat or not.

460
00:27:38,822 --> 00:27:40,491
They claim to be peaceful now.

461
00:27:42,159 --> 00:27:45,427
I claim to be eating healthy.

462
00:27:55,404 --> 00:27:56,473
Okay.

463
00:27:57,775 --> 00:27:59,142
Go pick him up.

464
00:28:24,535 --> 00:28:25,670
What's the next name?

465
00:28:27,171 --> 00:28:28,803
Well, Mr. Vice President,

466
00:28:28,805 --> 00:28:32,274
there's been some chatter
about, uh, uh...

467
00:28:32,276 --> 00:28:35,009
an engineering student
from Berlin...

468
00:28:35,011 --> 00:28:37,580
<i>I have never been
a quitter.</i>

469
00:28:38,582 --> 00:28:40,949
<i>To leave office
before my term is completed</i>

470
00:28:40,951 --> 00:28:44,055
<i>is abhorrent
to every instinct in my body.</i>

471
00:28:46,088 --> 00:28:47,190
<i>But as president...</i>

472
00:28:47,959 --> 00:28:51,395
<i>I must put the interests
of America first.</i>

473
00:28:53,130 --> 00:28:56,198
<i>America needs
a full-time president.</i>

474
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,504
Nixon forgot about
the voice-activated recorders.

475
00:29:00,671 --> 00:29:02,170
He got sloppy.

476
00:29:02,172 --> 00:29:04,005
Is the president
being punished?

477
00:29:04,007 --> 00:29:06,807
No, no. The president has
a lot of enemies.

478
00:29:06,809 --> 00:29:08,910
Brussels, please.

479
00:29:08,912 --> 00:29:11,514
You need to remember,
Lizzie...

480
00:29:11,516 --> 00:29:13,849
<i>The fight in the months
ahead for my personal vindication...</i>

481
00:29:13,851 --> 00:29:16,986
...that if you have power,
people will always try to take it from you.

482
00:29:16,988 --> 00:29:18,355
Always.

483
00:29:19,122 --> 00:29:20,488
- Yeah.
- Yes, ma'am.

484
00:29:20,490 --> 00:29:22,524
You remember that.

485
00:29:22,526 --> 00:29:23,659
Donald Rumsfeld, please.

486
00:29:23,661 --> 00:29:26,495
This is a tragedy.

487
00:29:26,497 --> 00:29:27,862
That is our president.

488
00:29:27,864 --> 00:29:29,264
This is ridiculous.

489
00:29:29,266 --> 00:29:34,104
I actually think this could be
very, very good news.

490
00:29:38,075 --> 00:29:41,509
The way I see it,
any Republican not touched

491
00:29:41,511 --> 00:29:44,146
by Watergate
is golden right now.

492
00:29:44,148 --> 00:29:47,615
Nice. Well, Ford called me
before my plane took off,

493
00:29:47,617 --> 00:29:48,684
and I think we're in.

494
00:29:49,452 --> 00:29:52,653
Oh, still driving
this chick magnet, huh?

495
00:29:52,655 --> 00:29:53,889
You can always take the bus.

496
00:29:53,891 --> 00:29:55,192
<i>Therefore...</i>

497
00:29:56,093 --> 00:29:57,793
<i>I shall resign
the presidency,</i>

498
00:29:57,795 --> 00:29:59,430
<i>effective at noon tomorrow.</i>

499
00:30:00,631 --> 00:30:03,899
<i>Vice President Ford
will be sworn in</i>

500
00:30:03,901 --> 00:30:05,868
<i>as president
at that hour...</i>

501
00:30:05,870 --> 00:30:07,268
So what's the plan?

502
00:30:07,270 --> 00:30:11,642
Well, the plan is
to take over the damn place.

503
00:30:12,509 --> 00:30:14,342
Who lit a fire
under your ass?

504
00:30:14,344 --> 00:30:16,480
I haven't flipped cards
for a long time, Don.

505
00:30:22,987 --> 00:30:27,025
They gave me the keys
to the damn palace.

506
00:30:28,758 --> 00:30:30,161
Chief of Staff.

507
00:30:30,994 --> 00:30:32,928
Holy shit.

508
00:30:32,930 --> 00:30:35,830
You salty son of a bitch.

509
00:30:35,832 --> 00:30:37,265
You did it.

510
00:30:37,267 --> 00:30:39,735
All right,
we have work to do.

511
00:30:39,737 --> 00:30:42,805
Kissinger is trying to kiss
and make up with the Soviets.

512
00:30:43,606 --> 00:30:47,677
Well, let's make sure
that shit doesn't happen.

513
00:30:51,882 --> 00:30:53,183
Yeah.

514
00:31:00,723 --> 00:31:04,493
If I may, I believe
I may have a way

515
00:31:04,495 --> 00:31:07,329
to put an oar in the water
on Russia.

516
00:31:07,331 --> 00:31:09,732
What if we create...

517
00:31:09,734 --> 00:31:11,399
Mr. President.

518
00:31:11,401 --> 00:31:13,334
Hold on, Henry,
let's hear Dick out.

519
00:31:13,336 --> 00:31:16,338
<i>One of Dick Cheney's
special superpowers</i>

520
00:31:16,340 --> 00:31:18,207
<i>was the ability to make</i>

521
00:31:18,209 --> 00:31:21,275
<i>the most wild
and extreme ideas</i>

522
00:31:21,277 --> 00:31:24,179
<i>sound measured
and professional.</i>

523
00:31:24,181 --> 00:31:26,515
What if,
on a unilateral basis,

524
00:31:26,517 --> 00:31:30,252
we all put miniature wigs
on our penises

525
00:31:30,254 --> 00:31:33,889
and we walked out
to the White House lawn

526
00:31:33,891 --> 00:31:35,390
and jerked each other off?

527
00:31:35,392 --> 00:31:40,094
So, like a puppet show,
but much more enjoyable.

528
00:31:40,096 --> 00:31:43,063
Hmm. I do like
a good puppet show.

529
00:31:43,065 --> 00:31:45,199
I say we do it.

530
00:31:45,201 --> 00:31:47,236
<i>Henry
Kissinger has been relieved</i>

531
00:31:47,238 --> 00:31:48,603
<i>as national security advisor</i>

532
00:31:48,605 --> 00:31:50,839
<i>and replaced
by Brent Scowcroft.</i>

533
00:31:52,575 --> 00:31:55,476
<i>They're calling
it the Halloween Massacre.</i>

534
00:31:55,478 --> 00:31:56,777
- Mr. President.
- Hold on, Henry.

535
00:31:56,779 --> 00:31:58,479
<i>Donald Rumsfeld
has replaced</i>

536
00:31:58,481 --> 00:32:00,615
<i>Secretary of Defense
James Schlesinger.</i>

537
00:32:00,617 --> 00:32:02,383
<i>And Dick Cheney
has been chosen as the...</i>

538
00:32:02,385 --> 00:32:04,186
Youngest Chief of Staff
in history.

539
00:32:04,188 --> 00:32:06,290
- It's amazing. It's a dream.
- It's real.

540
00:32:07,391 --> 00:32:11,325
And Don is the youngest
Secretary of Defense ever.

541
00:32:11,327 --> 00:32:13,160
Well, I'm not talking
about Don.

542
00:32:13,162 --> 00:32:14,865
I'm talking about you.

543
00:32:16,734 --> 00:32:18,467
And I'm going to give you

544
00:32:18,469 --> 00:32:20,738
a kiss right here
in the White House.

545
00:32:22,206 --> 00:32:24,206
Excuse me,
Mr. And Mrs. Cheney,

546
00:32:24,208 --> 00:32:26,141
These girls were trying
to enter the Oval Office.

547
00:32:26,143 --> 00:32:28,642
Oh, dear. Oh, dear.

548
00:32:28,644 --> 00:32:31,479
- Girls...
- Hey. Hey, there. Hey, you!

549
00:32:31,481 --> 00:32:34,115
Girls, this is not
a playground. Please do not...

550
00:32:34,117 --> 00:32:35,985
Hey, you. Hey.

551
00:32:35,987 --> 00:32:38,355
Is this where Santa lives?

552
00:32:39,355 --> 00:32:41,758
It's even better.
It's even better.

553
00:32:42,825 --> 00:32:45,228
This is where...

554
00:32:46,229 --> 00:32:49,564
the leader of
the greatest nation

555
00:32:49,566 --> 00:32:51,300
on earth lives.

556
00:32:51,302 --> 00:32:52,734
Are you one of his elves,
Daddy?

557
00:32:52,736 --> 00:32:54,169
In a way, yes.

558
00:32:54,171 --> 00:32:56,103
No, he is not, Mary.

559
00:32:56,105 --> 00:32:58,840
Your father is Chief of Staff.

560
00:32:58,842 --> 00:33:00,710
Chief of Staff.

561
00:33:01,845 --> 00:33:02,977
If you're silly with her,

562
00:33:02,979 --> 00:33:04,246
she'll grow up to be
a silly woman.

563
00:33:04,248 --> 00:33:07,248
Right, of course.
I forgot.

564
00:33:07,250 --> 00:33:11,186
That's just, uh...
That's just silly, Mary.

565
00:33:11,188 --> 00:33:13,420
<i>And as the new
Chief of Staff,</i>

566
00:33:13,422 --> 00:33:16,390
<i>and with the presidency
weakened by Watergate,</i>

567
00:33:16,392 --> 00:33:17,958
<i>Dick Cheney wanted to find out</i>

568
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,396
<i>exactly how much power
did the president have.</i>

569
00:33:21,398 --> 00:33:24,302
I would like to reinstate
executive authority.

570
00:33:25,134 --> 00:33:26,100
How?

571
00:33:26,102 --> 00:33:27,803
<i>Antonin Scalia,</i>

572
00:33:27,805 --> 00:33:29,737
<i>a young lawyer
with the Justice Department</i>

573
00:33:29,739 --> 00:33:32,740
<i>who would later go on
to serve on the Supreme Court</i>

574
00:33:32,742 --> 00:33:34,175
<i>rocked Dick's world.</i>

575
00:33:34,177 --> 00:33:35,576
Interesting you should ask.

576
00:33:35,578 --> 00:33:37,845
<i>Are you familiar
with the theory</i>

577
00:33:37,847 --> 00:33:39,346
<i>of the unitary executive?</i>

578
00:33:39,348 --> 00:33:41,015
No. Tell me about it.

579
00:33:41,017 --> 00:33:42,382
Uh, it is an interpretation

580
00:33:42,384 --> 00:33:44,386
that few, like myself,
happen to believe,

581
00:33:44,388 --> 00:33:46,187
in Article II
of the Constitution

582
00:33:46,189 --> 00:33:48,023
that vests the president

583
00:33:48,025 --> 00:33:50,494
with absolute
executive authority.

584
00:33:51,394 --> 00:33:52,963
And I mean absolute.

585
00:34:05,842 --> 00:34:07,309
- Hey, baby?
- Yep?

586
00:34:07,311 --> 00:34:09,247
You wanna take Cole
to the high chair?

587
00:34:10,047 --> 00:34:11,279
Come on, buddy.

588
00:34:11,281 --> 00:34:12,848
I've gotta try
and explain

589
00:34:12,850 --> 00:34:14,315
this thing to the people.

590
00:34:14,317 --> 00:34:16,384
Oh, aren't you hungry?

591
00:34:16,386 --> 00:34:18,319
<i>The unitary...</i>

592
00:34:18,321 --> 00:34:19,920
<i>executive...</i>

593
00:34:19,922 --> 00:34:21,123
<i>theory.</i>

594
00:34:21,125 --> 00:34:23,458
<i>Certain legal scholars
believe that</i>

595
00:34:23,460 --> 00:34:25,861
<i>if the president
does anything,</i>

596
00:34:25,863 --> 00:34:27,129
<i>it must be legal,</i>

597
00:34:27,131 --> 00:34:28,797
<i>because it's the president.</i>

598
00:34:28,799 --> 00:34:31,299
<i>To hell with checks
and balances,</i>

599
00:34:31,301 --> 00:34:33,703
<i>especially
during times of war.</i>

600
00:34:34,471 --> 00:34:40,009
<i>This was the power of kings,
pharaohs, dictators.</i>

601
00:34:40,011 --> 00:34:41,408
- This is perfect.
- Mm-hmm.

602
00:34:41,410 --> 00:34:43,645
<i>Dick Cheney
was a foot soldier</i>

603
00:34:43,647 --> 00:34:46,681
<i>in the power games
of Washington, D.C.</i>

604
00:34:46,683 --> 00:34:49,951
<i>But with
the unitary executive theory,</i>

605
00:34:49,953 --> 00:34:51,386
<i>he could become...</i>

606
00:34:51,388 --> 00:34:55,058
<i>Galactus, Devourer of Planets.</i>

607
00:34:56,692 --> 00:34:59,761
<i>But then
it was election night,</i>

608
00:34:59,763 --> 00:35:01,462
<i>and there was one big problem.</i>

609
00:35:01,464 --> 00:35:04,632
<i>The winner,
with 272 electoral votes...</i>

610
00:35:04,634 --> 00:35:05,933
<i>we had wondered
which one of us</i>

611
00:35:05,935 --> 00:35:07,234
<i>was going to make
this announcement.</i>

612
00:35:07,236 --> 00:35:09,904
<i>James Earl Carter,</i>

613
00:35:09,906 --> 00:35:11,573
<i>the next president
of the United States.</i>

614
00:35:11,575 --> 00:35:15,576
<i>And just like that,
it was all over.</i>

615
00:35:15,578 --> 00:35:18,346
<i>Dick Cheney, the president's
Chief of Staff,</i>

616
00:35:18,348 --> 00:35:20,147
<i>he does not have a job.</i>

617
00:35:20,149 --> 00:35:21,583
<i>At one point, he was a broker.</i>

618
00:35:21,585 --> 00:35:23,118
It can't be. It's got to be
some sort of a mistake.

619
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,589
- A miscalculation.
- There goes the neighborhood.

620
00:35:28,125 --> 00:35:29,360
Well...

621
00:35:31,060 --> 00:35:32,661
thank you all.

622
00:35:32,663 --> 00:35:35,096
<i>The Republicans
have lost the presidency.</i>

623
00:35:35,098 --> 00:35:37,565
<i>They are the minority in
Congress and in most states.</i>

624
00:35:37,567 --> 00:35:39,835
<i>With America demanding change,
I don't see...</i>

625
00:35:39,837 --> 00:35:42,004
<i>The GOP
is a party in disarray.</i>

626
00:35:42,006 --> 00:35:44,371
<i>Clearly, Watergate,
the Vietnam War...</i>

627
00:35:44,373 --> 00:35:45,574
<i>President Carter went up</i>

628
00:35:45,576 --> 00:35:47,007
<i>on the roof
of the White House today</i>

629
00:35:47,009 --> 00:35:49,344
<i>to show off the new
solar water heaters</i>

630
00:35:49,346 --> 00:35:50,712
<i>installed there.</i>

631
00:35:50,714 --> 00:35:52,480
<i>Today,
in directly harnessing</i>

632
00:35:52,482 --> 00:35:54,016
<i>the power of the sun,
we are taking</i>

633
00:35:54,018 --> 00:35:56,083
<i>the energy that God gave us,</i>

634
00:35:56,085 --> 00:35:59,953
<i>the most renewable energy
that we will ever see,</i>

635
00:35:59,955 --> 00:36:02,489
<i>and using it to replace
our dwindling supplies</i>

636
00:36:02,491 --> 00:36:04,060
<i>of fossil fuels.</i>

637
00:36:05,529 --> 00:36:06,962
<i>There is no longer
any question</i>

638
00:36:06,964 --> 00:36:09,263
<i>that solar energy</i>

639
00:36:09,265 --> 00:36:12,769
<i>is both feasible
and also cost-effective.</i>

640
00:36:33,424 --> 00:36:34,989
<i>...went on to be
Secretary of Defense.</i>

641
00:36:34,991 --> 00:36:37,859
<i>Al Haig, who became Supreme
Allied Commander in Europe,</i>

642
00:36:37,861 --> 00:36:41,228

643
00:36:41,230 --> 00:36:43,531
<i>in a California penitentiary.</i>

644
00:36:43,533 --> 00:36:44,933
Well, not me. Not me, sir.

645
00:36:44,935 --> 00:36:48,569
I, I will become
the gentleman from Wyoming.

646
00:36:48,571 --> 00:36:51,138
Most of all, and hear this,

647
00:36:51,140 --> 00:36:53,408
uh, taxes must go down.

648
00:36:53,410 --> 00:36:55,243
I'll say it again,
taxes must go down.

649
00:36:55,245 --> 00:36:57,444
- Talk. Talk.
- We must ameliorate the pain of taxes

650
00:36:57,446 --> 00:36:59,246
for the working man

651
00:36:59,248 --> 00:37:01,516
and bring, uh...

652
00:37:01,518 --> 00:37:04,018
...perspicacity to the fore.

653
00:37:04,020 --> 00:37:08,121
I'm as much a Wyomingite,
our, uh, demonym...

654
00:37:08,123 --> 00:37:09,958
Blah, blah, blah.

655
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,326
Thank God
for name recognition.

656
00:37:12,328 --> 00:37:13,862
...as Jedediah Smith.

657
00:37:13,864 --> 00:37:15,931
Well, um, enough
of the horsing around.

658
00:37:15,933 --> 00:37:19,801
Although that is, of course,
what, uh, us cowboys do.

659
00:37:19,803 --> 00:37:20,871
Um...

660
00:37:21,805 --> 00:37:25,140
Uh, vote for Cheney
for Congress.

661
00:37:25,142 --> 00:37:28,143
I will not let you down,
you can count on me.

662
00:37:28,145 --> 00:37:29,611
And, uh, thank you.

663
00:37:29,613 --> 00:37:34,082
Vote for, uh,
Cheney in Congress.

664
00:37:35,752 --> 00:37:37,721
Either he drinks next time
or I do.

665
00:37:39,455 --> 00:37:41,188
Yeah...

666
00:37:41,190 --> 00:37:42,690
I don't want anyone to panic,

667
00:37:42,692 --> 00:37:47,931
but, uh, I do believe
I have to go to the hospital.

668
00:37:49,232 --> 00:37:50,468
Now.

669
00:38:00,042 --> 00:38:03,478
It's an inferior wall infarct.

670
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,950
But that,
that can be fixed, right?

671
00:38:06,716 --> 00:38:07,882
If it was up to me,

672
00:38:07,884 --> 00:38:09,587
you'd drop
out of the election.

673
00:38:11,488 --> 00:38:12,587
But you've both made
that clear

674
00:38:12,589 --> 00:38:14,221
that it's not an option,

675
00:38:14,223 --> 00:38:17,725
so you must have a minimum
of two weeks bed rest.

676
00:38:17,727 --> 00:38:20,161
Two weeks off,
we'll lose our lead.

677
00:38:20,163 --> 00:38:21,565
Like hell we will.

678
00:38:22,366 --> 00:38:23,663
<i>Dick Cheney
has an illness,</i>

679
00:38:23,665 --> 00:38:25,866
<i>so he can't be here today.</i>

680
00:38:25,868 --> 00:38:29,739
But we got his wife,
and she's a darn pretty girl.

681
00:38:30,607 --> 00:38:32,239
Lynne Cheney!

682
00:38:34,243 --> 00:38:35,643
Hello...

683
00:38:35,645 --> 00:38:37,779
Hello, how are you today?

684
00:38:37,781 --> 00:38:39,080
Good, good, good to hear.

685
00:38:39,082 --> 00:38:43,150
Uh, it's really nice
to be back in my home state.

686
00:38:43,152 --> 00:38:46,855
See, I grew up in Wyoming,
but it seems that, uh,

687
00:38:46,857 --> 00:38:48,991
somewhere along the line,

688
00:38:48,993 --> 00:38:51,125
Washington, D.C.
stopped listening

689
00:38:51,127 --> 00:38:52,861
to real folks like us

690
00:38:52,863 --> 00:38:56,531
and started only listening
to liberal snobs

691
00:38:56,533 --> 00:38:58,498
who want us all
to lose our jobs

692
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:00,234
to affirmative action.

693
00:39:00,236 --> 00:39:01,271
Mm-hmm.

694
00:39:02,538 --> 00:39:03,772
Okay, Lynne. Let's...

695
00:39:05,375 --> 00:39:06,677
That's right.

696
00:39:07,777 --> 00:39:10,612
You know,
I went to New York City.

697
00:39:10,614 --> 00:39:13,313
Women in New York City
are burning their bras.

698
00:39:14,984 --> 00:39:17,351
Well, you know what women
in Wyoming do with our bras?

699
00:39:17,353 --> 00:39:19,520
We wear them.

700
00:39:19,522 --> 00:39:22,690
<i>We wear them.</i>

701
00:39:22,692 --> 00:39:23,958
Here in Wyoming,

702
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:25,826
we believe there is
a right and a wrong...

703
00:39:25,828 --> 00:39:29,696
Because I'm a mom
and a wife from Wyoming

704
00:39:29,698 --> 00:39:33,134
and I know how it feels
to make every penny count.

705
00:39:33,136 --> 00:39:35,837
<i>And not only
do I speak for you,</i>

706
00:39:35,839 --> 00:39:37,038
<i>but my husband, Dick Cheney...</i>

707
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:38,940
<i>A hard wind of change</i>

708
00:39:38,942 --> 00:39:40,942
<i>had been blowing
through America.</i>

709
00:39:40,944 --> 00:39:44,882
<i>Civil rights,</i> Roe v. Wade,
<i>environmentalism,</i>

710
00:39:45,681 --> 00:39:47,047
<i>but there was
a part of the country</i>

711
00:39:47,049 --> 00:39:49,285
<i>that was angry
about this change.</i>

712
00:39:50,254 --> 00:39:54,158
Thanks to my amazing wife.

713
00:39:55,158 --> 00:39:58,826
It's good to be
joining you all here in D.C.

714
00:39:58,828 --> 00:40:01,265
as Wyoming's sole
congressional representative.

715
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,400
<i>And then,
big money families</i>

716
00:40:05,402 --> 00:40:07,435
<i>like the Kochs and the Coors</i>

717
00:40:07,437 --> 00:40:09,971
<i>that were sick of paying
income taxes</i>

718
00:40:09,973 --> 00:40:12,440
<i>rolled right into
Washington, D.C.</i>

719
00:40:12,442 --> 00:40:15,042
<i>and started writing fat checks</i>

720
00:40:15,044 --> 00:40:16,879
<i>to fund right-wing
think tanks...</i>

721
00:40:18,681 --> 00:40:20,013
<i>that would change the way</i>

722
00:40:20,015 --> 00:40:22,752
<i>many Americans
looked at the world.</i>

723
00:40:24,955 --> 00:40:29,357
<i>Finally, in 1980,
this unlikely revolution</i>

724
00:40:29,359 --> 00:40:32,460
<i>of the super-rich
and white conservatives</i>

725
00:40:32,462 --> 00:40:33,761
<i>found its face.</i>

726
00:40:33,763 --> 00:40:35,830
<i>For those without skills,</i>

727
00:40:35,832 --> 00:40:38,565
<i>we'll find a way
to help them get new skills.</i>

728
00:40:38,567 --> 00:40:40,701
<i>For those
without job opportunities,</i>

729
00:40:40,703 --> 00:40:42,303
<i>we'll stimulate
new opportunities,</i>

730
00:40:42,305 --> 00:40:45,674
<i>particularly in the inner
cities where they live.</i>

731
00:40:45,676 --> 00:40:48,009
<i>For those
who've abandoned hope,</i>

732
00:40:48,011 --> 00:40:49,976
<i>we'll restore hope
and we'll welcome them</i>

733
00:40:49,978 --> 00:40:51,779
<i>into a great national crusade</i>

734
00:40:51,781 --> 00:40:54,049
<i>to make America great again.</i>

735
00:41:00,455 --> 00:41:01,892
<i>Thank you very much.</i>

736
00:41:03,727 --> 00:41:05,261
<i>God bless America.</i>

737
00:41:06,495 --> 00:41:10,797
<i>It was
the fucking 1980s,</i>

738
00:41:10,799 --> 00:41:13,870
<i>and it was a hell of a time
to be Dick Cheney.</i>

739
00:41:15,638 --> 00:41:18,973
Vote on H.R.4445,

740
00:41:18,975 --> 00:41:21,442
the Undetectable Firearms Act,

741
00:41:21,444 --> 00:41:25,212
to ban plastic guns that can
evade metal detectors.

742
00:41:25,214 --> 00:41:26,681
Nay.

743
00:41:26,683 --> 00:41:29,650
Well, thank you,
Congressmen Cheney.

744
00:41:29,652 --> 00:41:31,520
I hear you've been
quite the ally.

745
00:41:31,522 --> 00:41:34,321
<i>...establishing
Martin Luther King Jr. Day</i>

746
00:41:34,323 --> 00:41:35,925
<i>as a federal holiday.</i>

747
00:41:36,692 --> 00:41:42,096
H.R.36441,
the Endangered Species Act.

748
00:41:42,098 --> 00:41:45,232
Mr. T is here,
right with the First Family.

749
00:41:45,234 --> 00:41:48,636
Vote on H.R.500,
the Water Quality Act.

750
00:41:48,638 --> 00:41:49,870
- Out!
- Woo!

751
00:41:49,872 --> 00:41:52,276
Vote on H.R.44...

752
00:41:54,044 --> 00:41:56,379
Someone call an ambulance!

753
00:41:57,781 --> 00:42:01,852
- Can you breathe?
- I'm having a heart attack, you idiot.

754
00:42:34,250 --> 00:42:36,083
<i>Thank you, Alex,
for your very responsible...</i>

755
00:42:36,085 --> 00:42:37,317
<i>Oh, congratulations.</i>

756
00:42:37,319 --> 00:42:40,254
Thank you.
I was very, very excited...

757
00:42:40,256 --> 00:42:42,623
- We are not wolves.
- Thank you.

758
00:42:42,625 --> 00:42:44,158
No, thank you.

759
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,864
Oh, they're both brilliant
but broke.

760
00:42:50,167 --> 00:42:52,098
- Hey, George.
- Hey, Dick.

761
00:42:52,100 --> 00:42:54,167
Hello, Lynne.

762
00:42:54,169 --> 00:42:55,737
Congratulations
on your appointment.

763
00:42:55,739 --> 00:42:57,871
Oh, well, thank you,
Mr. Vice President.

764
00:42:57,873 --> 00:42:59,440
How is your lovely family?

765
00:42:59,442 --> 00:43:02,145
Well, we think our son Jeb
seems cut out for office.

766
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,848
We may be asking for your
endorsements in a few years.

767
00:43:06,850 --> 00:43:09,250
Well, if he's half as charming
as you are, George,

768
00:43:09,252 --> 00:43:10,817
then you'll have
both of our votes.

769
00:43:10,819 --> 00:43:11,953
Ah, can I get that in writing?

770
00:43:11,955 --> 00:43:13,221
Oh, yeah, of course.

771
00:43:13,223 --> 00:43:14,922
Dick, I just want
to say thank you

772
00:43:14,924 --> 00:43:16,458
for getting the House
not to override

773
00:43:16,460 --> 00:43:18,725
the president's veto
on the fairness doctrine.

774
00:43:18,727 --> 00:43:20,361
No, not a problem.

775
00:43:20,363 --> 00:43:22,730
Happy to get rid of any
big government regulations.

776
00:43:22,732 --> 00:43:24,399
Thank you. Great.

777
00:43:24,401 --> 00:43:26,301
<i>The fairness doctrine
was a law from the 40s</i>

778
00:43:26,303 --> 00:43:29,504
<i>that required
any broadcast TV or radio news</i>

779
00:43:29,506 --> 00:43:32,440
<i>to present both sides
of an issue equally.</i>

780
00:43:32,442 --> 00:43:35,475
<i>Its repeal would lead
to the rise of opinion news.</i>

781
00:43:35,477 --> 00:43:40,115
Let me tell you something,
you skinny human prophylactic.

782
00:43:40,884 --> 00:43:43,451
Love is the only human emotion
you can't fake.

783
00:43:43,453 --> 00:43:45,719
Except women.
And thank God they can.

784
00:43:48,123 --> 00:43:50,024
And eventually
to the realization

785
00:43:50,026 --> 00:43:51,928
of Roger Ailes' dream.

786
00:43:52,728 --> 00:43:55,129
Fox News,
which would go on to become

787
00:43:55,131 --> 00:43:58,500
the number one news station
in the United States

788
00:43:58,502 --> 00:44:01,103
and swing America
even more to the right.

789
00:44:02,538 --> 00:44:04,571
Thank you. Great.

790
00:44:06,408 --> 00:44:09,143
Sorry. Sorry.
Hey, it's all right.

791
00:44:09,145 --> 00:44:10,911
Lighten up, sweetheart.
It's a party.

792
00:44:10,913 --> 00:44:12,179
Let me go see if I can see

793
00:44:12,181 --> 00:44:13,413
if everything's okay
over there.

794
00:44:13,415 --> 00:44:15,549
Great to see you both.
Love to the girls.

795
00:44:15,551 --> 00:44:16,750
Love to Barbara.

796
00:44:16,752 --> 00:44:18,518
Will do.

797
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,223
- That's his son.
- Oh, crap.

798
00:44:21,257 --> 00:44:23,357
George W.,
black sheep of the family.

799
00:44:23,359 --> 00:44:25,759
- Very boring people. Only in America...
- Let's go.

800
00:44:25,761 --> 00:44:28,164
A little too much
unconditional love there.

801
00:44:29,998 --> 00:44:32,199
Can you feel it, Dick?

802
00:44:32,201 --> 00:44:34,435
Half the room wants to be us.

803
00:44:34,437 --> 00:44:36,737
The other half fears us.

804
00:44:36,739 --> 00:44:39,475
I know George is next
in line, but...

805
00:44:40,877 --> 00:44:42,446
after that, who knows?

806
00:44:43,879 --> 00:44:46,282
I respect
the hell out of Reagan,

807
00:44:47,315 --> 00:44:50,217
but no one has shown the world
the true power

808
00:44:50,219 --> 00:44:52,388
of the American presidency.

809
00:45:19,681 --> 00:45:21,315
Excuse me, Miss Mary!

810
00:45:21,317 --> 00:45:25,088
You cannot leave the grounds
during school hours. Mary!

811
00:45:33,328 --> 00:45:34,929
Well, I don't understand.

812
00:45:34,931 --> 00:45:37,698
You just left school? Why?

813
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:39,602
It doesn't make any sense.

814
00:45:40,803 --> 00:45:42,238
It was Susan.

815
00:45:43,205 --> 00:45:45,107
Susan, your best friend?

816
00:45:46,442 --> 00:45:49,646
Oh, honey, did you get
in a fight over a boy or...

817
00:45:54,984 --> 00:45:57,120
She broke up with me.

818
00:45:59,823 --> 00:46:02,292
Mom, Dad...

819
00:46:04,660 --> 00:46:05,625
I...

820
00:46:05,627 --> 00:46:07,064
I like girls.

821
00:46:08,031 --> 00:46:09,967
I'm gay.

822
00:46:30,152 --> 00:46:32,189
It doesn't matter, sweetheart.

823
00:46:33,788 --> 00:46:35,424
We love you no matter what.

824
00:46:37,359 --> 00:46:38,960
Daddy.

825
00:46:38,962 --> 00:46:40,764
I love you so much.

826
00:46:43,899 --> 00:46:45,468
This is going to make things...

827
00:46:46,602 --> 00:46:47,738
so hard for you.

828
00:46:55,511 --> 00:46:58,245
When George Bush Sr.
was elected president,

829
00:46:58,247 --> 00:47:02,083
Dick Cheney was made
Secretary of Defense,

830
00:47:02,085 --> 00:47:04,287
sixth in line
to the presidency.

831
00:47:05,154 --> 00:47:07,054
<i>And after a few years,</i>

832
00:47:07,056 --> 00:47:09,857
<i>it was Dick's turn
to run for president.</i>

833
00:47:09,859 --> 00:47:13,893
<i>So they decided to do
some early polling numbers.</i>

834
00:47:13,895 --> 00:47:15,531
Uh-huh. Guess that's it.

835
00:47:17,232 --> 00:47:19,669
We can move
those numbers. Just...

836
00:47:20,736 --> 00:47:22,303
go after the welfare state,

837
00:47:22,305 --> 00:47:24,538
- regulations, government waste.
- It'll be war.

838
00:47:24,540 --> 00:47:25,772
No.

839
00:47:25,774 --> 00:47:27,308
I, uh...

840
00:47:27,310 --> 00:47:29,312
I can't put Mary through that.

841
00:47:31,047 --> 00:47:33,483
Every primary opponent
will go after her.

842
00:47:39,288 --> 00:47:41,123
And we deny.

843
00:47:42,625 --> 00:47:45,562
Shame them for going
after the family and...

844
00:48:23,933 --> 00:48:26,299
You let Grandma go.

845
00:48:26,301 --> 00:48:28,536
Come on. Good boy.

846
00:48:28,538 --> 00:48:29,539
All right.

847
00:48:31,073 --> 00:48:33,507
No. Oh, my goodness.

848
00:48:40,183 --> 00:48:41,614
It's great, Philip.

849
00:48:41,616 --> 00:48:44,051
Uh, Coors has me
mapping out strategies

850
00:48:44,053 --> 00:48:46,487
for people living
alternative lifestyles.

851
00:48:46,489 --> 00:48:48,355
The Coors are
a wonderful family.

852
00:48:48,357 --> 00:48:50,326
They're good people.

853
00:49:31,533 --> 00:49:34,803
Who is calling
on a Sunday morning?

854
00:49:36,272 --> 00:49:37,507
I don't know.

855
00:49:38,341 --> 00:49:40,841
Okay. I'm coming.

856
00:49:43,513 --> 00:49:44,581
I'm comin'.

857
00:49:47,817 --> 00:49:48,885
Hello.

858
00:49:52,622 --> 00:49:53,857
That's right.

859
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:58,460
Mm-hmm.

860
00:50:04,033 --> 00:50:06,302
Any way I can be
of assistance.

861
00:50:08,805 --> 00:50:11,274
Yep, now that should work.
3:00 p.m.

862
00:50:12,575 --> 00:50:14,208
Of course.

863
00:50:14,210 --> 00:50:15,478
Oh, that, uh...

864
00:50:16,346 --> 00:50:17,948
that goes without saying.

865
00:50:20,149 --> 00:50:21,281
Thank you.

866
00:50:21,283 --> 00:50:22,818
No, thank you.

867
00:50:24,252 --> 00:50:25,654
Who was that?

868
00:50:26,723 --> 00:50:28,589
It was someone from

869
00:50:28,591 --> 00:50:31,725
George Bush's son's,
uh, campaign.

870
00:50:31,727 --> 00:50:32,694
Jeb?

871
00:50:32,696 --> 00:50:34,060
No, no, George W.

872
00:50:34,062 --> 00:50:36,196
- Uh, Jeb's Florida.
- Right, right.

873
00:50:36,198 --> 00:50:37,998
Oh, I still can't believe
they've got

874
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,067
that poor boy running
for president.

875
00:50:40,069 --> 00:50:42,072
What'd they want?

876
00:50:43,105 --> 00:50:47,410
They want to talk to me
about being his running mate.

877
00:50:48,877 --> 00:50:49,979
What?

878
00:50:51,113 --> 00:50:52,879
They didn't say it outright,

879
00:50:52,881 --> 00:50:54,580
but, uh...

880
00:50:54,582 --> 00:50:56,485
I've made
that call myself.

881
00:50:57,285 --> 00:50:58,787
That's what they want.

882
00:51:00,321 --> 00:51:02,725
A vice president
is a nothing job.

883
00:51:03,926 --> 00:51:04,926
Mmm.

884
00:51:05,661 --> 00:51:07,594
Well, I'll just hear 'em out.

885
00:51:07,596 --> 00:51:09,295
I owe that to the father.

886
00:51:09,297 --> 00:51:11,565
The VP just sits around

887
00:51:11,567 --> 00:51:13,366
and waits
for the president to die.

888
00:51:13,368 --> 00:51:14,870
You've said so yourself.

889
00:51:16,205 --> 00:51:17,670
Yeah, it's a cruddy job.

890
00:51:17,672 --> 00:51:18,672
Yeah.

891
00:51:19,908 --> 00:51:21,277
It's just a meeting.

892
00:51:22,044 --> 00:51:23,779
Is it just a meeting?

893
00:51:25,881 --> 00:51:27,416
It's just a meeting.

894
00:51:32,687 --> 00:51:33,789
Good.

895
00:51:55,111 --> 00:51:56,446
Yes, Governor.

896
00:51:58,747 --> 00:52:00,346
Of course.

897
00:52:00,348 --> 00:52:02,228
The governor will see you now,
Secretary Cheney.

898
00:52:08,690 --> 00:52:09,690
Sure.

899
00:52:12,660 --> 00:52:14,462
Hey! Hello, Dick.

900
00:52:14,464 --> 00:52:15,864
Hello, George.

901
00:52:16,933 --> 00:52:18,297
It's been a while.

902
00:52:18,299 --> 00:52:19,565
Last year.

903
00:52:19,567 --> 00:52:21,803
Foreign policy sessions.

904
00:52:21,805 --> 00:52:24,071
That's right.
Yeah, that's right.

905
00:52:24,073 --> 00:52:25,709
Those meetings were, uh...

906
00:52:26,875 --> 00:52:28,808
very engaging.

907
00:52:28,810 --> 00:52:31,612
I do remember
we both agreed

908
00:52:31,614 --> 00:52:33,080
my dad
would've been re-elected

909
00:52:33,082 --> 00:52:34,547
had he taken out Saddam.

910
00:52:34,549 --> 00:52:37,519
Right. Yeah,
wartime presidents.

911
00:52:38,453 --> 00:52:39,987
Very popular.

912
00:52:39,989 --> 00:52:41,757
That they are.
That they are.

913
00:52:42,825 --> 00:52:43,926
So...

914
00:52:46,395 --> 00:52:47,560
Congratulations

915
00:52:47,562 --> 00:52:51,165
on a... successful primary.

916
00:52:51,167 --> 00:52:54,167
I've, uh, been through
a few myself,

917
00:52:54,169 --> 00:52:56,270
and they can be,
shall we say...

918
00:52:56,272 --> 00:52:57,437
Fuckin' exhausting.

919
00:52:57,439 --> 00:52:59,041
Right.

920
00:53:00,274 --> 00:53:01,440
Yeah.

921
00:53:01,442 --> 00:53:03,476
It's a grind.

922
00:53:03,478 --> 00:53:04,578
It's a grind, I'll tell you.

923
00:53:04,580 --> 00:53:07,016
<i>Buses, bologna sandwiches.</i>

924
00:53:08,183 --> 00:53:09,716
Hell, I like people,
but, I mean,

925
00:53:09,718 --> 00:53:11,787
you know,
enough's enough.

926
00:53:15,089 --> 00:53:16,091
So...

927
00:53:17,660 --> 00:53:18,926
that call I received...

928
00:53:18,928 --> 00:53:20,560
I forgot,
you're a brass tacks guy,

929
00:53:20,562 --> 00:53:21,862
aren't ya? I like that.

930
00:53:23,533 --> 00:53:26,132
You surprised
I'm running for president?

931
00:53:26,134 --> 00:53:29,368
<i>He wants
to impress his father</i>

932
00:53:29,370 --> 00:53:30,638
<i>more than anything.</i>

933
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:33,906
After my, uh,
shall we say, wild years?

934
00:53:33,908 --> 00:53:37,944
Well, George,
I sowed some oats myself

935
00:53:37,946 --> 00:53:39,379
back in the day.

936
00:53:39,381 --> 00:53:43,049
And I still enjoy
a cold beer on occasion.

937
00:53:43,051 --> 00:53:44,518
- I bet you did.
- Mmm.

938
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,219
I bet you did, you rascal.

939
00:53:46,221 --> 00:53:49,321
I can't anymore. It got bad.

940
00:53:49,323 --> 00:53:51,257
Yeah.

941
00:53:51,259 --> 00:53:52,426
Good times.

942
00:53:52,428 --> 00:53:54,063
<i>What does he
really want?</i>

943
00:53:55,196 --> 00:53:56,496
<i>What does he need?</i>

944
00:53:56,498 --> 00:53:58,201
It's tough, I'll tell ya.

945
00:54:00,770 --> 00:54:02,368
I lost my first
congressional race,

946
00:54:02,370 --> 00:54:04,973
and it was not good.

947
00:54:07,542 --> 00:54:09,042
How 'bout some brisket?

948
00:54:09,044 --> 00:54:10,180
George, um...

949
00:54:12,547 --> 00:54:15,315
Hey, Theresa! Hey, Theresa!

950
00:54:15,317 --> 00:54:17,183
- Yell up, get some brisket.
- All right, we'll find some.

951
00:54:17,185 --> 00:54:19,386
- Get the burnt ends.
- 'Course.

952
00:54:19,388 --> 00:54:20,757
So listen, I got a...

953
00:54:21,823 --> 00:54:24,125
"lack of experience" problem
in the polls,

954
00:54:24,127 --> 00:54:26,460
and you are one of the most
experienced guys around.

955
00:54:26,462 --> 00:54:28,998
You wanna jump on board,
be my vice?

956
00:54:30,332 --> 00:54:31,332
I'm honored.

957
00:54:32,100 --> 00:54:34,667
Don't be honored, fuckin'
say yes, Mr. Brass Tacks.

958
00:54:34,669 --> 00:54:36,638
Mmm. I have to say, uh, no.

959
00:54:37,439 --> 00:54:39,306
Dick, come on,
we're gonna have a lot of fun.

960
00:54:39,308 --> 00:54:42,643
What are you doin' right now?
You're in the private sector?

961
00:54:42,645 --> 00:54:44,411
Yeah.

962
00:54:44,413 --> 00:54:46,246
Come on,
I know you love politics.

963
00:54:46,248 --> 00:54:47,681
George.

964
00:54:47,683 --> 00:54:49,917
- Let's go.
- Not gonna happen.

965
00:54:49,919 --> 00:54:51,888
Come on now.

966
00:54:53,689 --> 00:54:55,154
Well, that's a shame.

967
00:54:55,156 --> 00:54:56,758
It is.

968
00:54:58,093 --> 00:54:59,796
Perhaps I could, uh...

969
00:55:00,763 --> 00:55:04,031
help you find
the right running mate.

970
00:55:04,033 --> 00:55:05,699
Run my VP search team?

971
00:55:05,701 --> 00:55:08,071
Mmm. No team. Just me.

972
00:55:14,810 --> 00:55:16,944
Yeah, yeah, that could work,
that could...

973
00:55:16,946 --> 00:55:19,781
I have to run it by Rove,
of course, but, uh...

974
00:55:21,417 --> 00:55:22,616
If I lose,
maybe I could become

975
00:55:22,618 --> 00:55:24,451
commissioner of baseball.

976
00:55:24,453 --> 00:55:26,085
You know?

977
00:55:26,087 --> 00:55:28,591
But the, um, idea...

978
00:55:29,558 --> 00:55:30,927
is to win.

979
00:55:32,928 --> 00:55:34,830
I'm gonna keep you
in the back of my mind.

980
00:55:41,937 --> 00:55:45,542
So, are you going to tell me
how it went today or not?

981
00:55:49,111 --> 00:55:50,547
It was very interesting.

982
00:55:51,446 --> 00:55:52,714
He is, uh...

983
00:55:55,517 --> 00:55:56,719
...green.

984
00:55:58,553 --> 00:55:59,955
He's very green.

985
00:56:02,390 --> 00:56:03,825
And you told him "no"?

986
00:56:04,593 --> 00:56:05,926
I, uh...

987
00:56:05,928 --> 00:56:10,033
I told him I would help
with the, uh...

988
00:56:11,734 --> 00:56:13,136
with the search.

989
00:56:27,448 --> 00:56:28,850
What are you thinking?

990
00:56:31,087 --> 00:56:33,957
- I can tell you're thinking.
- Mm-hmm.

991
00:56:40,529 --> 00:56:42,364
<i>What was
Dick Cheney thinking...</i>

992
00:56:43,332 --> 00:56:45,933
I'm thinking I've never seen
anything like this.

993
00:56:45,935 --> 00:56:49,002
<i>...after his first
meeting with George W.?</i>

994
00:56:49,004 --> 00:56:51,974
We've had
a lot of successes, Dick.

995
00:56:55,076 --> 00:56:58,779
And the vice president
is a nothing job.

996
00:56:58,781 --> 00:57:01,851
<i>How many steps ahead
was he looking?</i>

997
00:57:02,685 --> 00:57:05,219
<i>How did he feel
about the opportunity</i>

998
00:57:05,221 --> 00:57:06,789
<i>that was in front of him?</i>

999
00:57:07,957 --> 00:57:11,491
<i>There are certain moments</i>

1000
00:57:11,493 --> 00:57:12,862
<i>so delicate...</i>

1001
00:57:13,895 --> 00:57:16,999
<i>like a teacup and saucer...</i>

1002
00:57:20,203 --> 00:57:23,837
<i>...stacked on a teacup
and saucer</i>

1003
00:57:23,839 --> 00:57:27,140
<i>on a teacup and saucer...</i>

1004
00:57:27,142 --> 00:57:28,910
Can you change,
or am I wasting...

1005
00:57:31,113 --> 00:57:32,748
<i>...and on and on...</i>

1006
00:57:38,888 --> 00:57:42,357
<i>that this moment could fall
in any direction...</i>

1007
00:57:43,491 --> 00:57:46,228
<i>and change everything.</i>

1008
00:57:48,763 --> 00:57:50,730
<i>Sadly, there's no real way</i>

1009
00:57:50,732 --> 00:57:52,667
<i>to know exactly
what was going on</i>

1010
00:57:52,669 --> 00:57:54,033
<i>inside the Cheneys...</i>

1011
00:57:54,035 --> 00:57:56,504
<i>...at this
history-changing moment.</i>

1012
00:57:56,506 --> 00:58:00,440
<i>We can't just snap
into a Shakespearean soliloquy</i>

1013
00:58:00,442 --> 00:58:03,779
<i>that dramatizes every feeling
and motivation.</i>

1014
00:58:04,547 --> 00:58:07,315
<i>That's just not
the way the world works.</i>

1015
00:58:12,888 --> 00:58:15,656
My sweet Richard.

1016
00:58:15,658 --> 00:58:18,792
Dance'd nimbly round
the king's hearth thou hath.

1017
00:58:18,794 --> 00:58:22,529
Even whilst clamored I
for more, more!

1018
00:58:22,531 --> 00:58:24,832
- Mm.
- Parched maw craned towards

1019
00:58:24,834 --> 00:58:28,234
the drip, drip
of imagined waters.

1020
00:58:28,236 --> 00:58:32,371
But I say to you now,
rest, retire.

1021
00:58:32,373 --> 00:58:36,946
Thou hast honored thy vows
to wife and crown.

1022
00:58:37,913 --> 00:58:41,217
Has blindness usurped vision
in you, my wife?

1023
00:58:44,018 --> 00:58:46,988
No mere treaty is our union.

1024
00:58:47,989 --> 00:58:50,790
Thou shared thy torch's flame
with mine.

1025
00:58:50,792 --> 00:58:53,127
Revealing halls
and spires...

1026
00:58:54,297 --> 00:58:56,730
...of long faded empires.

1027
00:58:56,732 --> 00:59:00,667
And now, I may hold aloft

1028
00:59:00,669 --> 00:59:03,238
mine own fiery cresset.

1029
00:59:04,939 --> 00:59:08,477
And make flesh
our bond of power.

1030
00:59:09,777 --> 00:59:11,145
Dare I?

1031
00:59:11,913 --> 00:59:14,647
Dare I let hope's beak
place gathered bramble

1032
00:59:14,649 --> 00:59:17,018
upon my heart
for future's nest?

1033
00:59:17,785 --> 00:59:21,187
Many winters past
hath I let this hope die,

1034
00:59:21,189 --> 00:59:24,891
cruel winds silencing
tiny birds' needy cries.

1035
00:59:24,893 --> 00:59:27,861
Now that it hath arrived,
I say yea.

1036
00:59:27,863 --> 00:59:29,464
Yea.

1037
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,768
Mine own blood and will
are yours

1038
00:59:34,770 --> 00:59:35,969
'til pierced be

1039
00:59:35,971 --> 00:59:38,138
the last soldier's
breastplate,

1040
00:59:38,140 --> 00:59:40,808
spilling forth
its ruby jelly treasures.

1041
00:59:51,687 --> 00:59:52,922
So?

1042
00:59:53,754 --> 00:59:57,093
So I think we, uh, proceed.

1043
00:59:58,326 --> 00:59:59,759
What about Mary?

1044
00:59:59,761 --> 01:00:01,897
Mmm. It's VP.

1045
01:00:03,397 --> 01:00:05,433
Not the same scrutiny.

1046
01:00:06,701 --> 01:00:10,337
No. He has allies, Dick.
Connections.

1047
01:00:10,339 --> 01:00:13,209
You're new to his world.
You don't know the landscape.

1048
01:00:18,580 --> 01:00:23,285
Well, I had better conduct
a very thorough search.

1049
01:00:24,051 --> 01:00:27,989
Every stone,
hell, every grain of sand

1050
01:00:28,790 --> 01:00:30,156
needs to be looked under
for this questionnaire.

1051
01:00:30,158 --> 01:00:33,225
Dick, we're asking
for all financials,

1052
01:00:33,227 --> 01:00:35,062
all medical, all interviews,

1053
01:00:35,064 --> 01:00:36,996
press, writings,
all legal records...

1054
01:00:36,998 --> 01:00:40,301
Sometimes people use LLCs
to hide certain monies.

1055
01:00:40,303 --> 01:00:41,400
And?

1056
01:00:41,402 --> 01:00:42,603
Any more comprehensive

1057
01:00:42,605 --> 01:00:44,304
and we would need
a rubber glove.

1058
01:00:44,306 --> 01:00:45,004
Sorry, Liz.

1059
01:00:45,006 --> 01:00:46,438
That wasn't offensive.

1060
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:47,741
Should I be offended?

1061
01:00:47,743 --> 01:00:49,076
Well, I'm offended.

1062
01:00:49,078 --> 01:00:50,576
Dave didn't worry
if I'd be offended.

1063
01:00:50,578 --> 01:00:53,179
Oh, a rubber glove,
like a proctology exam.

1064
01:00:53,181 --> 01:00:54,948
That's, that's disgusting.

1065
01:00:54,950 --> 01:00:58,152
Hello? Oh, hello...

1066
01:00:59,120 --> 01:01:01,788
Dad, I'm taking
the cheese off your pizza.

1067
01:01:01,790 --> 01:01:03,989
- Honey?
- Mmm?

1068
01:01:03,991 --> 01:01:05,759
Dave.

1069
01:01:05,761 --> 01:01:06,792
David. Thoughts?

1070
01:01:06,794 --> 01:01:09,364
One. A big one.

1071
01:01:10,399 --> 01:01:13,199
<i>David Addington,
Dick's main legal advisor</i>

1072
01:01:13,201 --> 01:01:16,305
<i>and a huge believer in the
unitary executive theory.</i>

1073
01:01:17,239 --> 01:01:19,571
<i>He was known for
telling people to their face</i>

1074
01:01:19,573 --> 01:01:21,408
<i>that they're stupid.</i>

1075
01:01:21,410 --> 01:01:24,076
So the, uh, vice presidency is
part of the executive branch.

1076
01:01:24,078 --> 01:01:26,312
And because the VP casts

1077
01:01:26,314 --> 01:01:28,181
tie-breaking votes
in the Senate,

1078
01:01:28,183 --> 01:01:31,317
<i>also part of
the legislative branch, right?</i>

1079
01:01:31,319 --> 01:01:32,018
Right.

1080
01:01:32,020 --> 01:01:33,987
That means...

1081
01:01:33,989 --> 01:01:35,890
the VP is also

1082
01:01:35,892 --> 01:01:40,159
<i>not part of the executive
or the legislative.</i>

1083
01:01:40,161 --> 01:01:41,228
So,

1084
01:01:41,230 --> 01:01:43,532
one could argue that, uh...

1085
01:01:44,832 --> 01:01:46,667
neither branch

1086
01:01:46,669 --> 01:01:48,370
has oversight of the VP.

1087
01:01:49,238 --> 01:01:52,908
Not only could one argue that,
I'm arguing it.

1088
01:01:53,709 --> 01:01:55,074
That's brilliant, David.

1089
01:01:55,076 --> 01:01:57,243
I know. Right?

1090
01:01:57,245 --> 01:02:00,679
Karl Rove
wanted me to buy this ranch,

1091
01:02:00,681 --> 01:02:04,183
distance myself from my years
at Yale and Harvard,

1092
01:02:04,185 --> 01:02:06,853
make me more of a man
of the people for the election.

1093
01:02:06,855 --> 01:02:09,190
Mmm. Smart.

1094
01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:14,995
So we gonna do this thing or what?
I mean, is this happening?

1095
01:02:14,997 --> 01:02:20,933
We, uh, have found some
very interesting candidates.

1096
01:02:20,935 --> 01:02:22,935
Um, if we could schedule

1097
01:02:22,937 --> 01:02:26,373
a three-hour window
to get through...

1098
01:02:26,375 --> 01:02:29,011
I meant you.
I want you to be my VP.

1099
01:02:30,044 --> 01:02:32,078
- You're the solution to my problems.
- No.

1100
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,650
I'm CEO of a large company.

1101
01:02:35,884 --> 01:02:39,255
I have been, uh,
Secretary of Defense.

1102
01:02:40,022 --> 01:02:42,255
I have been Chief of Staff.

1103
01:02:42,257 --> 01:02:47,627
Uh, the vice presidency
is mostly a symbolic job.

1104
01:02:47,629 --> 01:02:49,161
Right, right.

1105
01:02:49,163 --> 01:02:51,100
I can see how
that wouldn't be, uh...

1106
01:02:52,868 --> 01:02:54,500
enticing to you.

1107
01:02:54,502 --> 01:02:55,502
However...

1108
01:02:58,239 --> 01:03:03,212
the vice presidency is also
defined by the president.

1109
01:03:04,413 --> 01:03:06,612
And if we were to come
to a, uh...

1110
01:03:07,681 --> 01:03:09,451
...different understanding...

1111
01:03:10,819 --> 01:03:12,421
Uh-huh. Go on.

1112
01:03:13,855 --> 01:03:15,123
I'm listenin'.

1113
01:03:16,558 --> 01:03:21,060
I sense that, uh,
you're a kinetic leader.

1114
01:03:21,062 --> 01:03:24,830
You make decisions
based on instinct.

1115
01:03:24,832 --> 01:03:26,632
I am. People always said that.

1116
01:03:26,634 --> 01:03:28,167
Yeah, yeah. Very different.

1117
01:03:28,169 --> 01:03:30,703
Very different from, uh,

1118
01:03:30,705 --> 01:03:33,241
from your father
in that regard.

1119
01:03:34,076 --> 01:03:36,342
Now, maybe I can, uh,

1120
01:03:36,344 --> 01:03:39,145
handle some of
the more mundane jobs.

1121
01:03:39,147 --> 01:03:42,049
Overseeing bureaucracy,

1122
01:03:42,051 --> 01:03:44,250
managing military,

1123
01:03:44,252 --> 01:03:47,589
uh, energy,
uh, foreign policy.

1124
01:03:53,661 --> 01:03:54,661
That sounds good.

1125
01:03:58,334 --> 01:04:00,567
Never wanna be
the kind of team owner

1126
01:04:00,569 --> 01:04:04,036
that, uh, pulls the starter
in the fourth inning.

1127
01:04:04,038 --> 01:04:06,475
- Mm-hmm.
- That's the manager's job.

1128
01:04:09,076 --> 01:04:10,446
One more thing.

1129
01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:13,716
My daughter, Mary.

1130
01:04:15,250 --> 01:04:17,352
Right. Rove told me
she likes girls.

1131
01:04:18,152 --> 01:04:21,721
Now, I know you have
to, uh, run against, uh,

1132
01:04:21,723 --> 01:04:26,127
gay marriage in the South,
Midwest, and, uh...

1133
01:04:27,261 --> 01:04:29,395
But it's my daughter,

1134
01:04:29,397 --> 01:04:32,832
and that line
is drawn in concrete.

1135
01:04:32,834 --> 01:04:34,801
Don't you say another word.

1136
01:04:34,803 --> 01:04:37,136
So long as you don't mind us
pushing that messaging,

1137
01:04:37,138 --> 01:04:39,105
we're okay with you
sittin' that one out.

1138
01:04:39,107 --> 01:04:41,141
I think it's important
for all the...

1139
01:04:41,143 --> 01:04:42,875
all the Marys
in the world, you know?

1140
01:04:44,980 --> 01:04:46,849
No problemo.
We got a deal?

1141
01:04:48,015 --> 01:04:50,618
Then I believe
this could work.

1142
01:04:51,386 --> 01:04:53,719
Hot damn!

1143
01:04:53,721 --> 01:04:56,357
Yeah. Well, good. Hey...

1144
01:04:57,292 --> 01:04:59,391
- let's celebrate.
<i>- Secretary Cheney visited me and Laura</i>

1145
01:04:59,393 --> 01:05:01,594
<i>at our ranch
in Crawford, Texas...</i>

1146
01:05:01,596 --> 01:05:02,998
- Cheers.
- Cheers.

1147
01:05:03,998 --> 01:05:09,402
<i>I realized the best choice
was standing by my side.</i>

1148
01:05:09,404 --> 01:05:11,203
<i>Please welcome my friend</i>

1149
01:05:11,205 --> 01:05:14,107
<i>and my running mate
Dick Cheney...</i>

1150
01:05:19,314 --> 01:05:21,848
<i>...and his lovely wife Lynne.</i>

1151
01:05:21,850 --> 01:05:23,049
<i>Dick never filled out</i>

1152
01:05:23,051 --> 01:05:25,484
<i>his own
83-question questionnaire.</i>

1153
01:05:25,486 --> 01:05:28,420
<i>Full medical records
were never handed over.</i>

1154
01:05:28,422 --> 01:05:31,824
<i>No tax or corporate filings.
Nothing.</i>

1155
01:05:31,826 --> 01:05:35,127
Cheney! Cheney! Cheney!

1156
01:05:35,129 --> 01:05:36,728
Cheney! Cheney!

1157
01:05:36,730 --> 01:05:38,797
<i>To reach more
of his senior aides</i>

1158
01:05:38,799 --> 01:05:40,165
<i>to find out reasons.</i>

1159
01:05:40,167 --> 01:05:41,500
<i>But we were told
when he came over,</i>

1160
01:05:41,502 --> 01:05:42,969
<i>he had already called
Governor Bush,</i>

1161
01:05:42,971 --> 01:05:44,636
<i>he had wished him well,
and that he would deliver</i>

1162
01:05:44,638 --> 01:05:45,906
<i>a brief concession speech
here tonight.</i>

1163
01:05:45,908 --> 01:05:47,373
I don't know.

1164
01:05:47,375 --> 01:05:48,574
<i>I think
we're all sitting around</i>

1165
01:05:48,576 --> 01:05:50,243
<i>wondering what it is that, uh,</i>

1166
01:05:50,245 --> 01:05:52,411
- <i>he may be doing backstage.</i>
- They just keep going on and on.

1167
01:05:52,413 --> 01:05:54,817
Gore rescinded his concession.

1168
01:05:57,685 --> 01:06:00,890
They're claiming Florida
is too close to call.

1169
01:06:01,756 --> 01:06:05,558
He can't fucking rescind
his concession.

1170
01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:07,159
He just did.

1171
01:06:07,161 --> 01:06:08,328
The Russians are loving this.

1172
01:06:08,330 --> 01:06:10,996
There's gonna be
a recount, so...

1173
01:06:10,998 --> 01:06:12,065
I don't know.

1174
01:06:12,067 --> 01:06:13,269
What should we do?

1175
01:06:14,234 --> 01:06:17,305
We play it
like we've already won.

1176
01:06:18,339 --> 01:06:21,943
Which means we need
to staff the White House.

1177
01:06:23,111 --> 01:06:26,746
All right. Who's leading
the transition team?

1178
01:06:26,748 --> 01:06:27,815
I'll do it.

1179
01:06:29,018 --> 01:06:30,216
That's not something
a vice president

1180
01:06:30,218 --> 01:06:31,518
really does, is it?

1181
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:32,520
Uh-huh.

1182
01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:34,855
- It is now.
<i>- Vice President Gore</i>

1183
01:06:34,857 --> 01:06:36,890
<i>has called Governor Bush</i>

1184
01:06:36,892 --> 01:06:39,525
<i>and retracted his concession,</i>

1185
01:06:39,527 --> 01:06:41,694
<i>because he is now...</i>

1186
01:06:41,696 --> 01:06:43,496
- What?
<i>- ...of the mind that things could be turning</i>

1187
01:06:43,498 --> 01:06:45,063
<i>yet again in Florida.</i>

1188
01:06:45,065 --> 01:06:46,933
You can't do that!

1189
01:06:46,935 --> 01:06:48,804
I mean, that's laughable.

1190
01:06:50,372 --> 01:06:52,373
Uh, Wolfowitz.

1191
01:06:53,808 --> 01:06:55,241
- State...
- Mmm.

1192
01:06:55,243 --> 01:06:56,708
...or Pentagon?

1193
01:06:56,710 --> 01:06:59,212
Depends on who your
Secretary of Defense is.

1194
01:06:59,214 --> 01:07:00,379
- Rummy.
- Hundred percent.

1195
01:07:00,381 --> 01:07:02,214
- Mm-hmm.
- Rumsfeld?

1196
01:07:02,216 --> 01:07:04,451
Uh, doesn't Bush Senior
hate Rummy?

1197
01:07:04,453 --> 01:07:05,851
Not such a bad thing with W.

1198
01:07:05,853 --> 01:07:08,120
He wants to be his own man.

1199
01:07:08,122 --> 01:07:10,323
Rumsfeld believes
in a robust executive.

1200
01:07:10,325 --> 01:07:11,924
That's good for us
on war powers.

1201
01:07:11,926 --> 01:07:14,493
Just keep him out of State,
he'll start World War III.

1202
01:07:14,495 --> 01:07:16,562
Look.

1203
01:07:16,564 --> 01:07:21,234
Halliburton just gave us
a $26 million exit package.

1204
01:07:21,236 --> 01:07:23,804
Twice what we expected.

1205
01:07:23,806 --> 01:07:24,974
They're no dummies.

1206
01:07:27,174 --> 01:07:29,377
Uh, sorry, gang.

1207
01:07:30,745 --> 01:07:31,978
Yep.

1208
01:07:31,980 --> 01:07:35,850
Think, uh, perhaps
I should go to the hospital.

1209
01:07:37,518 --> 01:07:39,953
Oh, my God. Are you
kidding me? Oh, come on.

1210
01:07:39,955 --> 01:07:43,355
Oyez! Oyez! Oyez!

1211
01:07:43,357 --> 01:07:45,625
All persons having business
with the Honorable,

1212
01:07:45,627 --> 01:07:47,159
the Supreme Court
of the United States

1213
01:07:47,161 --> 01:07:50,230
are admonished to draw near
and give their attention,

1214
01:07:50,232 --> 01:07:52,265
for the Court is now sitting.

1215
01:07:52,267 --> 01:07:54,234
God bless
the United States and...

1216
01:07:54,236 --> 01:07:59,071
<i>December 12th, 2000.
Antonin Scalia, remember him,</i>

1217
01:07:59,073 --> 01:08:01,975
<i>and the Supreme Court stopped
the state of Florida</i>

1218
01:08:01,977 --> 01:08:03,275
<i>from completing their recount.</i>

1219
01:08:03,277 --> 01:08:05,277
God save the United States

1220
01:08:05,279 --> 01:08:07,647
- and this Honorable Court.
<i>- George W. Bush and Dick Cheney</i>

1221
01:08:07,649 --> 01:08:11,987
<i>were going to the White House
by a margin of 537 votes.</i>

1222
01:08:57,733 --> 01:08:59,832
Hey. Hey, little Mary Claire.

1223
01:08:59,834 --> 01:09:02,237
Hey, little Mary.
My little Mary.

1224
01:09:03,138 --> 01:09:06,841
<i>Hey, what are you doing?
What are you doing? Hmm?</i>

1225
01:09:10,879 --> 01:09:13,279
<i>Oh, they're both doing
really well.</i>

1226
01:09:13,281 --> 01:09:15,181
Except, I'm trying
to make this dinner.

1227
01:09:15,183 --> 01:09:17,116
And it's, uh...

1228
01:09:17,118 --> 01:09:19,918
it's this macaroni and cheese

1229
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:21,521
that you said was easy

1230
01:09:21,523 --> 01:09:24,824
but it keeps just coming out
like a little watery.

1231
01:09:24,826 --> 01:09:26,625
<i>It's the milk.
Remember?</i>

1232
01:09:26,627 --> 01:09:28,227
<i>You gotta add more milk.</i>

1233
01:09:28,229 --> 01:09:30,699
Yeah. It'll get thicker.

1234
01:09:31,899 --> 01:09:33,133
No, no, no, no.

1235
01:09:33,135 --> 01:09:35,668
<i>I am. It's much better
when you use the milk.</i>

1236
01:09:35,670 --> 01:09:36,768
<i>There's just so much,</i>

1237
01:09:36,770 --> 01:09:38,570
<i>so much I want
to say right now,</i>

1238
01:09:38,572 --> 01:09:40,472
<i>and just, you keep doing
what you're doing.</i>

1239
01:09:40,474 --> 01:09:42,510
<i>You're doing so great.</i>

1240
01:09:45,078 --> 01:09:48,315
You have earned something
very special from your wife.

1241
01:09:48,317 --> 01:09:49,850
Listen, listen, listen.

1242
01:09:50,786 --> 01:09:54,053
I'm buying wine,
and I'm picking something up.

1243
01:09:54,055 --> 01:09:55,491
<i>Chinese?</i>

1244
01:09:56,823 --> 01:09:59,495
<i>Okay,
I really love you.</i>

1245
01:10:01,062 --> 01:10:02,395
<i>I love you.</i>

1246
01:10:02,397 --> 01:10:04,933
<i>Yeah.</i>

1247
01:10:13,608 --> 01:10:14,941
Good morning
to you too.

1248
01:10:14,943 --> 01:10:16,174
We've met a few times.

1249
01:10:16,176 --> 01:10:17,310
- It's nice to see you.
- Yes.

1250
01:10:17,312 --> 01:10:18,378
Of course.

1251
01:10:18,380 --> 01:10:19,611
All right. Let's...

1252
01:10:19,613 --> 01:10:21,446
All right.
Let's get this thing underway.

1253
01:10:21,448 --> 01:10:23,482
Scooter, why don't you
let everyone know

1254
01:10:23,484 --> 01:10:24,918
the, um, lay of the land?

1255
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:26,485
Of course.
As you all know,

1256
01:10:26,487 --> 01:10:28,154
I am Scooter Libby,

1257
01:10:28,156 --> 01:10:29,989
Dick's Chief of Staff.

1258
01:10:29,991 --> 01:10:33,092
Uh, I'm also his
national security advisor

1259
01:10:33,094 --> 01:10:35,227
and a special advisor
to the president.

1260
01:10:35,229 --> 01:10:38,798
Technically, Scooter outranks
any of Bush's people.

1261
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:43,002
Mary Matalin will serve
as counselor to the VP

1262
01:10:43,004 --> 01:10:44,169
and assistant to Bush.

1263
01:10:44,171 --> 01:10:46,039
David Addington,

1264
01:10:46,041 --> 01:10:47,440
Dick's main legal counsel,

1265
01:10:47,442 --> 01:10:49,542
will play center field
on all matters

1266
01:10:49,544 --> 01:10:51,844
relating to executive power.

1267
01:10:51,846 --> 01:10:55,548
The president
has Alberto Gonzales,

1268
01:10:55,550 --> 01:10:57,316
Karl Rove,

1269
01:10:57,318 --> 01:11:00,619
Karen Hughes as his team.

1270
01:11:00,621 --> 01:11:03,188
Quite frankly,
Gonzales has no clue.

1271
01:11:03,190 --> 01:11:05,626
Um... Rove is a hack.

1272
01:11:06,627 --> 01:11:08,927
Hughes should be
in double-A ball.

1273
01:11:08,929 --> 01:11:12,664
So we will have
fairly unobstructed access

1274
01:11:12,666 --> 01:11:14,202
to the Oval Office.

1275
01:11:15,202 --> 01:11:17,035
We will be automatically

1276
01:11:17,037 --> 01:11:19,504
Bcc'd on all e-mails

1277
01:11:19,506 --> 01:11:21,341
that the president receives
or sends,

1278
01:11:21,343 --> 01:11:24,110
as well as have access
to his schedule

1279
01:11:24,112 --> 01:11:27,347
the second that it is set
or changed.

1280
01:11:27,349 --> 01:11:28,948
And we will
also be receiving

1281
01:11:28,950 --> 01:11:32,051
the daily intelligence briefing
before the president.

1282
01:11:32,053 --> 01:11:34,654
That gets us inside
the decision curve.

1283
01:11:34,656 --> 01:11:36,825
Which we'll actually
be reading.

1284
01:11:37,591 --> 01:11:39,359
Bush approved all of this?

1285
01:11:39,361 --> 01:11:41,196
Mmm, we have, uh,

1286
01:11:42,229 --> 01:11:43,463
an understanding.

1287
01:11:43,465 --> 01:11:44,763
What about the e-mails?

1288
01:11:44,765 --> 01:11:46,499
Paper shredders
don't work for e-mails.

1289
01:11:46,501 --> 01:11:48,500
The entire administration
will run off

1290
01:11:48,502 --> 01:11:50,402
the RNC's private server.

1291
01:11:50,404 --> 01:11:53,271
And we've deactivated
automatic archiving.

1292
01:11:53,273 --> 01:11:54,273
We're clean.

1293
01:11:55,343 --> 01:11:56,709
Okay.

1294
01:11:56,711 --> 01:11:58,543
So over at the Pentagon,
we got Don,

1295
01:11:58,545 --> 01:11:59,712
- Secretary of Defense.
- Mm-hmm.

1296
01:11:59,714 --> 01:12:01,446
Paul Wolfowitz,

1297
01:12:01,448 --> 01:12:03,749
who worked with Team B
in the Ford days,

1298
01:12:03,751 --> 01:12:05,752
Deputy Secretary of Defense.

1299
01:12:05,754 --> 01:12:06,686
Let's check,

1300
01:12:06,688 --> 01:12:09,288
see what plans

1301
01:12:09,290 --> 01:12:10,789
they had
to invade Iraq.

1302
01:12:10,791 --> 01:12:12,458
It's already in the works.

1303
01:12:12,460 --> 01:12:14,860
Got Ashcroft over at the DOJ.

1304
01:12:14,862 --> 01:12:17,763
State seems to be
the only tricky department.

1305
01:12:17,765 --> 01:12:21,000
That's Colin Powell,
his guy Lawrence Wilkerson.

1306
01:12:21,002 --> 01:12:23,302
Colin Powell, who never met
a camera he didn't like.

1307
01:12:23,304 --> 01:12:24,669
Wilkerson's a true believer.

1308
01:12:24,671 --> 01:12:25,938
We've got Bolton
over there.

1309
01:12:25,940 --> 01:12:27,774
He's a loose cannon,
but he's loyal.

1310
01:12:27,776 --> 01:12:30,375
Mmm. I wanna get Liz
in there as well.

1311
01:12:30,377 --> 01:12:31,710
Let's make sure that happens.

1312
01:12:31,712 --> 01:12:33,579
- Okay, Dad.
- Consider it done.

1313
01:12:33,581 --> 01:12:37,415
And this list of,
uh, our people

1314
01:12:37,417 --> 01:12:39,752
does not include
about 800 others,

1315
01:12:39,754 --> 01:12:42,487
uh, lobbyists,
industry insiders

1316
01:12:42,489 --> 01:12:45,458
that we placed
in the regulatory jobs.

1317
01:12:45,460 --> 01:12:46,659
What about Bush's friends?

1318
01:12:46,661 --> 01:12:48,293
<i>Ridge? Pataki? Thompson?</i>

1319
01:12:48,295 --> 01:12:49,628
I haven't heard their names.

1320
01:12:49,630 --> 01:12:52,198
They were not,
um, offered jobs

1321
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:54,866
in this administration,
uh, at this time.

1322
01:12:54,868 --> 01:12:56,869
Not offered jobs
at this time?

1323
01:12:56,871 --> 01:12:59,873
Are you even more ruthless than
you used to be there, Dick?

1324
01:12:59,875 --> 01:13:01,877
Or are you just
not getting laid?

1325
01:13:07,415 --> 01:13:08,646
All right, moving on.

1326
01:13:08,648 --> 01:13:10,618
Um, got Paul O'Neill.

1327
01:13:14,889 --> 01:13:18,191
You haven't been here
in over twenty years.

1328
01:13:18,193 --> 01:13:19,391
Times have changed.

1329
01:13:19,393 --> 01:13:21,593
The, uh, softer touch,

1330
01:13:21,595 --> 01:13:23,463
that's the norm now.

1331
01:13:23,465 --> 01:13:26,966
We have the conservative
TV and radio

1332
01:13:26,968 --> 01:13:29,304
- doing the yelling for us.
- Mm-hmm.

1333
01:13:30,104 --> 01:13:31,803
Is your old friend
embarrassing you?

1334
01:13:31,805 --> 01:13:33,071
Is that it, Dick?

1335
01:13:36,309 --> 01:13:39,111
Soft touch. That's all.

1336
01:13:39,113 --> 01:13:40,745
All right,
I have to go to my office

1337
01:13:40,747 --> 01:13:41,748
at the
House of Representatives.

1338
01:13:41,750 --> 01:13:43,082
You mean the Senate?

1339
01:13:43,084 --> 01:13:45,187
Vice president,
tiebreaker in the Senate.

1340
01:13:46,354 --> 01:13:48,489
Nope, I mean the House.

1341
01:13:49,256 --> 01:13:51,524
<i>Dick Cheney had used
an old connection</i>

1342
01:13:51,526 --> 01:13:52,959
<i>with former wrestling coach</i>

1343
01:13:52,961 --> 01:13:55,393
<i>and Speaker of the House
Dennis Hastert</i>

1344
01:13:55,395 --> 01:13:57,597
<i>to get an office at the
House of Representatives.</i>

1345
01:13:57,599 --> 01:13:59,999
<i>The House is where
revenue bills originate,</i>

1346
01:14:00,001 --> 01:14:02,569
<i>and he wanted to be
near the money faucet.</i>

1347
01:14:02,571 --> 01:14:05,040
Hey, Dick.
Will this work for you?

1348
01:14:06,741 --> 01:14:08,676
Two more offices
in the Senate.

1349
01:14:09,478 --> 01:14:11,877
Hey, Dick,
I found this extra office.

1350
01:14:11,879 --> 01:14:13,346
I hope it works for you.

1351
01:14:13,348 --> 01:14:14,946
And one in the Pentagon.

1352
01:14:14,948 --> 01:14:18,049
Welcome to your new home
away from home.

1353
01:14:18,051 --> 01:14:21,186
I got you
a little housewarming gift.

1354
01:14:21,188 --> 01:14:23,755
<i>And later, when Cheney
needed intelligence</i>

1355
01:14:23,757 --> 01:14:25,124
<i>to invade Iraq,</i>

1356
01:14:25,126 --> 01:14:26,926
<i>a conference room at the CIA.</i>

1357
01:14:26,928 --> 01:14:29,730
This room is soundproof
and secure.

1358
01:14:30,931 --> 01:14:33,365
<i>Cheney was everywhere.</i>

1359
01:14:33,367 --> 01:14:35,601
<i>But the most powerful place
in all of D.C.</i>

1360
01:14:35,603 --> 01:14:38,503
<i>was a nondescript
conference room</i>

1361
01:14:38,505 --> 01:14:39,938
<i>at a relatively new think tank</i>

1362
01:14:39,940 --> 01:14:42,775
<i>called Americans
for Tax Reform.</i>

1363
01:14:42,777 --> 01:14:45,811
<i>Grover Norquist ran
the anti-tax group</i>

1364
01:14:45,813 --> 01:14:48,446
<i>with huge funding from
the Koch brothers network,</i>

1365
01:14:48,448 --> 01:14:51,018
<i>big oil, and big tobacco.</i>

1366
01:14:51,885 --> 01:14:53,319
<i>His "Wednesday meeting,"</i>

1367
01:14:53,321 --> 01:14:56,923
<i>as it was called,
had become the center</i>

1368
01:14:56,925 --> 01:14:58,559
<i>of the Republican world.</i>

1369
01:14:59,359 --> 01:15:03,698
Let's go ahead and start
with the estate tax.

1370
01:15:04,565 --> 01:15:06,633
Now, this has been hard
to eliminate,

1371
01:15:06,635 --> 01:15:09,668
because the tax only
affects those estates

1372
01:15:09,670 --> 01:15:11,471
worth over two million.

1373
01:15:11,473 --> 01:15:13,972
But we've made strides,

1374
01:15:13,974 --> 01:15:17,211
and marketing guru Frank Luntz
is here to help.

1375
01:15:23,283 --> 01:15:24,549
Hello, all.

1376
01:15:25,819 --> 01:15:28,687
Getting regular people
to support cutting taxes

1377
01:15:28,689 --> 01:15:29,856
on the very wealthy

1378
01:15:29,858 --> 01:15:31,990
has always been
extremely hard.

1379
01:15:31,992 --> 01:15:34,994
We've had some success
in the past,

1380
01:15:34,996 --> 01:15:37,966
but the estate tax has
always been very difficult.

1381
01:15:39,067 --> 01:15:40,135
However...

1382
01:15:41,001 --> 01:15:43,104
I think we may have had
a breakthrough.

1383
01:15:44,004 --> 01:15:47,373
Now, the estate tax kicks in

1384
01:15:47,375 --> 01:15:51,710
on anyone inheriting
over two million dollars.

1385
01:15:51,712 --> 01:15:53,782
How many of you have
a problem with that?

1386
01:15:54,882 --> 01:15:56,749
Okay. How many
of you would have

1387
01:15:56,751 --> 01:15:58,651
a problem
with something called

1388
01:15:58,653 --> 01:16:00,422
a death tax?

1389
01:16:05,059 --> 01:16:08,026
Instead of global warming,

1390
01:16:08,028 --> 01:16:10,829
which we all agree
sounds very scary...

1391
01:16:12,867 --> 01:16:14,900
we call it

1392
01:16:14,902 --> 01:16:16,602
climate change.

1393
01:16:16,604 --> 01:16:17,802
<i>Folks, the government</i>

1394
01:16:17,804 --> 01:16:19,938
<i>is taking your money
after you die.</i>

1395
01:16:19,940 --> 01:16:21,240
<i>Now,
we all know the Democrats</i>

1396
01:16:21,242 --> 01:16:22,808
<i>despise tax cuts,
especially for the rich.</i>

1397
01:16:22,810 --> 01:16:24,477
<i>I want somebody to get rid</i>

1398
01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:26,111
<i>of the death tax,
that's what I want.</i>

1399
01:16:26,113 --> 01:16:27,579
<i>I don't want to get taxed
just 'cause I die.</i>

1400
01:16:27,581 --> 01:16:29,315
I mean, give me a break!

1401
01:16:29,317 --> 01:16:30,949
<i>If I give something to my
kid, I already paid the tax.</i>

1402
01:16:30,951 --> 01:16:32,183
<i>Why I gotta pay again
'cause I died?</i>

1403
01:16:32,185 --> 01:16:33,652
<i>It's like being chastised!
I hate it.</i>

1404
01:16:33,654 --> 01:16:35,487
<i>The death tax has to go.</i>

1405
01:16:35,489 --> 01:16:37,955
<i>The elite liberals
in Washington would tax us</i>

1406
01:16:37,957 --> 01:16:39,926
<i>for laughing or crying
if they could.</i>

1407
01:16:39,928 --> 01:16:42,361
So, with one
of the biggest media

1408
01:16:42,363 --> 01:16:45,767
and political machines
ever created behind him,

1409
01:16:46,635 --> 01:16:50,669
Cheney was able to squash
action on global warming,

1410
01:16:50,671 --> 01:16:52,338
cut taxes for the super rich,

1411
01:16:52,340 --> 01:16:55,674
and gut regulations
for massive corporations.

1412
01:16:55,676 --> 01:16:56,976
<i>And then there was Cheney's</i>

1413
01:16:56,978 --> 01:16:59,645
<i>National Energy Policy
Development Group.</i>

1414
01:16:59,647 --> 01:17:03,950
<i>His first major test
to expand executive power.</i>

1415
01:17:03,952 --> 01:17:06,084
I don't understand
what the goddamn problem is.

1416
01:17:06,086 --> 01:17:07,820
I want to hear
what the energy CEOs need,

1417
01:17:07,822 --> 01:17:09,187
and I'm not allowed to?

1418
01:17:09,189 --> 01:17:11,089
- It's called FACA.
- The hell is FACA?

1419
01:17:11,091 --> 01:17:12,959
It's the Federal
Advisory Committees Act.

1420
01:17:12,961 --> 01:17:15,594
Congress got their panties
in a bunch that, you know,

1421
01:17:15,596 --> 01:17:18,763
elected officials would
just let CEOs roll in

1422
01:17:18,765 --> 01:17:20,902
and, you know, write the laws.

1423
01:17:22,737 --> 01:17:24,369
The act demands that, uh,

1424
01:17:24,371 --> 01:17:28,775
appropriate government employees
be present.

1425
01:17:28,777 --> 01:17:30,412
Hold on a second.

1426
01:17:31,879 --> 01:17:33,014
What's your name?

1427
01:17:33,813 --> 01:17:35,448
Doug.

1428
01:17:35,450 --> 01:17:38,049
Doug, how long have you
been working reception

1429
01:17:38,051 --> 01:17:39,554
at the Department of Energy?

1430
01:17:40,787 --> 01:17:42,654
Three months.

1431
01:17:42,656 --> 01:17:43,892
Perfect.

1432
01:17:47,162 --> 01:17:49,594
So what am I supposed
to do here?

1433
01:17:49,596 --> 01:17:51,897
Just sit there
and be quiet.

1434
01:17:51,899 --> 01:17:53,167
Got it.

1435
01:17:57,037 --> 01:17:59,440
- Gentlemen.
- Hello.

1436
01:18:00,742 --> 01:18:02,575
Hello...

1437
01:18:04,778 --> 01:18:06,078
How's your business
at...

1438
01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:09,848
- We're good.
- Our stock...

1439
01:18:09,850 --> 01:18:12,884
And California
has been really...

1440
01:18:12,886 --> 01:18:14,686
- since deregulation.
- Great to hear.

1441
01:18:15,422 --> 01:18:18,691
Oh. He's with
the energy department.

1442
01:18:22,063 --> 01:18:23,963
<i>The details
of Cheney's meetings</i>

1443
01:18:23,965 --> 01:18:27,432
<i>with the energy CEOs
were never disclosed.</i>

1444
01:18:27,434 --> 01:18:30,002
<i>But a Freedom
of Information request</i>

1445
01:18:30,004 --> 01:18:32,003
<i>did provide some documents,</i>

1446
01:18:32,005 --> 01:18:34,272
<i>including a map
of Iraq's oil fields</i>

1447
01:18:34,274 --> 01:18:35,941
<i>with all of the oil companies</i>

1448
01:18:35,943 --> 01:18:38,543
<i>that would be interested
in acquiring them</i>

1449
01:18:38,545 --> 01:18:42,917
<i>if somehow they were ever
to become available.</i>

1450
01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,721
<i>And then, it happened.</i>

1451
01:18:48,723 --> 01:18:51,691
<i>Would you like to lower
your monthly mortgage payments</i>

1452
01:18:51,693 --> 01:18:54,060
<i>or use the equity in your home
to consolidate</i>

1453
01:18:54,062 --> 01:18:55,860
<i>your credit card
or other debts?</i>

1454
01:18:55,862 --> 01:18:57,062
<i>Just log...</i>

1455
01:18:57,064 --> 01:18:58,330
<i>Yeah.
This just in.</i>

1456
01:18:58,332 --> 01:18:59,932
<i>You are looking at obviously</i>

1457
01:18:59,934 --> 01:19:01,534
<i>a very disturbing
live shot there.</i>

1458
01:19:01,536 --> 01:19:03,102
<i>That is
the World Trade Center,</i>

1459
01:19:03,104 --> 01:19:05,737
<i>and we have unconfirmed
reports this morning</i>

1460
01:19:05,739 --> 01:19:09,176
<i>that a plane has crashed
into one of the towers.</i>

1461
01:19:09,943 --> 01:19:11,610
<i>It... it does not appear</i>

1462
01:19:11,612 --> 01:19:13,745
<i>that there's any kind
of an effort up there yet.</i>

1463
01:19:13,747 --> 01:19:15,347
<i>Now, remember... Oh, my God.</i>

1464
01:19:15,349 --> 01:19:17,249
- Oh, God!
- Dear God.

1465
01:19:17,251 --> 01:19:18,651
<i>That looks
like a second plane.</i>

1466
01:19:18,653 --> 01:19:20,285
Mr. Vice President,
we have information

1467
01:19:20,287 --> 01:19:22,021
that a plane's headed to
the White House this moment.

1468
01:19:22,023 --> 01:19:24,021
We have less than a minute to get
to the secure underground bunker.

1469
01:19:24,023 --> 01:19:25,993
Let's go! Move!

1470
01:19:27,228 --> 01:19:28,160
Move!

1471
01:19:28,162 --> 01:19:29,160
Move! It's clear!

1472
01:19:29,162 --> 01:19:31,063
Sir, this way. Right now.

1473
01:19:31,065 --> 01:19:32,763
<i>Capitol is being
evacuated, we're told,</i>

1474
01:19:32,765 --> 01:19:35,901
<i>and clearly that shot that
we have on our screen now,</i>

1475
01:19:35,903 --> 01:19:37,335
<i>this is the Pentagon</i>

1476
01:19:37,337 --> 01:19:40,005
<i>just across the river
from Washington, D.C.</i>

1477
01:19:40,007 --> 01:19:41,074
<i>You got to believe...</i>

1478
01:19:41,076 --> 01:19:42,642
I need you
to take me to Dick.

1479
01:19:42,644 --> 01:19:45,578
Mrs. Cheney, we cannot
go back to the White House,

1480
01:19:45,580 --> 01:19:46,911
I am being told no one...

1481
01:19:46,913 --> 01:19:48,480
Either you take me
to the White House...

1482
01:19:57,390 --> 01:20:00,460
Author is on the move.
Coming out.

1483
01:20:01,429 --> 01:20:04,396
<i>...the Twin
Towers of the World Trade Center.</i>

1484
01:20:04,398 --> 01:20:06,499
Have you gotten
the Prime Minister yet?

1485
01:20:06,501 --> 01:20:08,468
<i>...headed directly
into the World Trade Center.</i>

1486
01:20:08,470 --> 01:20:10,069
<i>It just flew into it.</i>

1487
01:20:10,071 --> 01:20:12,003
Canada's Prime Minister
is on the phone.

1488
01:20:12,005 --> 01:20:13,338
That's right,
we got planes in the air

1489
01:20:13,340 --> 01:20:14,940
and nowhere for them to land.

1490
01:20:14,942 --> 01:20:17,942
Permission for them
to land at Canadian airports,

1491
01:20:17,944 --> 01:20:19,411
international flights
into Newfoundland.

1492
01:20:19,413 --> 01:20:21,347
I still have one plane
unaccounted for

1493
01:20:21,349 --> 01:20:22,414
flying over Pennsylvania.

1494
01:20:22,416 --> 01:20:23,516
Sir, Donald Rumsfeld

1495
01:20:23,518 --> 01:20:24,784
is at the Pentagon
on line three.

1496
01:20:24,786 --> 01:20:26,017
- That?
- Mm-hmm.

1497
01:20:26,019 --> 01:20:27,254
Yes, sir.

1498
01:20:28,456 --> 01:20:30,655
You have authorization

1499
01:20:30,657 --> 01:20:33,158
to shoot down any aircraft

1500
01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:34,960
deemed a threat.

1501
01:20:34,962 --> 01:20:36,695
<i>Presidential authority?</i>

1502
01:20:36,697 --> 01:20:37,762
That is correct.

1503
01:20:37,764 --> 01:20:39,597
All orders are UNODIR.

1504
01:20:39,599 --> 01:20:40,531
"UNODIR", sir?

1505
01:20:40,533 --> 01:20:42,368
Unless otherwise directed.

1506
01:20:42,370 --> 01:20:44,302
Mr. Vice President,
are we sure these are

1507
01:20:44,304 --> 01:20:46,338
the proper rules of engagement?

1508
01:20:46,340 --> 01:20:48,640
The country's under attack,
the ROE is fluid.

1509
01:20:48,642 --> 01:20:51,142
- David... Addington, David.
- Yes, sir.

1510
01:20:51,144 --> 01:20:52,645
<i>Now,
we don't know exactly</i>

1511
01:20:52,647 --> 01:20:55,280
<i>what the people
in that room were thinking.</i>

1512
01:20:55,282 --> 01:20:57,383
<i>But it's safe to assume</i>

1513
01:20:57,385 --> 01:21:00,686
<i>that at least one person
wondered why</i>

1514
01:21:00,688 --> 01:21:02,820
<i>in the midst
of the most fateful day</i>

1515
01:21:02,822 --> 01:21:04,589
<i>in American history</i>

1516
01:21:04,591 --> 01:21:07,627
<i>was Dick Cheney
talking to his lawyer.</i>

1517
01:21:07,629 --> 01:21:09,328
And, um, what, um...

1518
01:21:09,330 --> 01:21:11,897
- Mr. Vice President?
- ...authority will he need?

1519
01:21:11,899 --> 01:21:13,266
So, start working on...

1520
01:21:13,268 --> 01:21:14,435
Mr. Vice President?

1521
01:21:15,470 --> 01:21:17,136
The congressional members
you sent

1522
01:21:17,138 --> 01:21:18,803
to Mount Weather
Emergency Operations Center

1523
01:21:18,805 --> 01:21:20,972
- wanna leave.
- Nope.

1524
01:21:20,974 --> 01:21:22,307
Excuse me?

1525
01:21:22,309 --> 01:21:24,343
They're not going anywhere.

1526
01:21:24,345 --> 01:21:28,550
Just, uh, tell them, um,
we have all the helicopters.

1527
01:21:29,716 --> 01:21:30,818
Yes, sir.

1528
01:21:31,952 --> 01:21:33,252
I'm sorry,
that is a negative.

1529
01:21:33,254 --> 01:21:35,353
They are to remain
where they are.

1530
01:21:35,355 --> 01:21:37,589
There's no helicopters
available for evac.

1531
01:21:37,591 --> 01:21:39,391
That is correct.

1532
01:21:39,393 --> 01:21:42,163
If you would be so kind
to relay that information.

1533
01:21:44,764 --> 01:21:45,799
Are we at war?

1534
01:21:47,035 --> 01:21:48,667
Yes, we are.

1535
01:21:48,669 --> 01:21:50,035
With whom?

1536
01:22:02,450 --> 01:22:03,816
<i>Depot street.</i>

1537
01:22:03,818 --> 01:22:05,458
<i>Truck pulling in
across from Depot Street.</i>

1538
01:22:11,158 --> 01:22:14,093
<i>Unit 9-3.
0-3-15 negative.</i>

1539
01:22:17,130 --> 01:22:19,597
<i>1-5-2-7, Brian.</i>

1540
01:22:19,599 --> 01:22:20,966
<i>God damn it.</i>

1541
01:22:20,968 --> 01:22:22,267
We picked up chatter

1542
01:22:22,269 --> 01:22:24,436
from well-known
Al-Qaeda operatives

1543
01:22:24,438 --> 01:22:26,204
celebrating today's attack.

1544
01:22:26,206 --> 01:22:27,505
We shouldn't rule out Iraq.

1545
01:22:27,507 --> 01:22:29,508
But what's
Al-Qaeda's leader's name?

1546
01:22:29,510 --> 01:22:31,744
His name is Osama bin Laden.

1547
01:22:31,746 --> 01:22:33,411
But this is clearly Al-Qaeda.

1548
01:22:33,413 --> 01:22:35,548
I've been tracking
their movements for years.

1549
01:22:35,550 --> 01:22:37,082
Their fingerprints
are all over this.

1550
01:22:37,084 --> 01:22:39,153
Iraq has all the good targets.

1551
01:22:40,020 --> 01:22:41,387
Iraq has nothing
to do with this, Don.

1552
01:22:41,389 --> 01:22:43,121
Richard,
you don't know that for sure.

1553
01:22:43,123 --> 01:22:44,489
I do know that.

1554
01:22:44,491 --> 01:22:45,691
Mr. President, if I may.

1555
01:22:46,727 --> 01:22:49,762
Afghanistan is
Al-Qaeda's headquarters.

1556
01:22:49,764 --> 01:22:51,329
- That is where our focus should be.
- Yeah.

1557
01:22:51,331 --> 01:22:54,533
And the CIA would
be capable of taking out

1558
01:22:54,535 --> 01:22:56,035
the Taliban's power structure.

1559
01:22:56,037 --> 01:22:58,102
Yeah.
All due respect, George,

1560
01:22:58,104 --> 01:22:59,038
Mr. President...

1561
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:01,005
we are the Pentagon,

1562
01:23:01,007 --> 01:23:02,740
and this is what we do.

1563
01:23:02,742 --> 01:23:03,911
Don.

1564
01:23:14,956 --> 01:23:19,091
Okay. We'll, uh, we'll go
with Tenet and the CIA.

1565
01:23:19,093 --> 01:23:21,325
I'll make some calls
to our allies.

1566
01:23:21,327 --> 01:23:22,327
Thank you, sir.

1567
01:23:25,565 --> 01:23:29,668
I think, uh, given the current
situation, Mr. President,

1568
01:23:29,670 --> 01:23:33,405
it is wise that we not be
in the same location

1569
01:23:33,407 --> 01:23:37,109
for COG,
Continuity of Government.

1570
01:23:37,111 --> 01:23:39,412
Of course.

1571
01:23:40,180 --> 01:23:42,282
We gonna be all right
on this, aren't we?

1572
01:23:43,317 --> 01:23:46,654
Yes, sir. Yes, we are.

1573
01:23:50,157 --> 01:23:52,924
<i>Angler has taken
off to an undisclosed location.</i>

1574
01:23:52,926 --> 01:23:54,660
<i>I repeat, Angler is airborne.</i>

1575
01:23:54,662 --> 01:23:56,829
<i>Angler? That's the VP?</i>

1576
01:23:56,831 --> 01:23:58,463
<i>I thought only
the president could land</i>

1577
01:23:58,465 --> 01:24:00,298
<i>and take off
from the south lawn.</i>

1578
01:24:00,300 --> 01:24:01,734
<i>What can I tell you?</i>

1579
01:24:01,736 --> 01:24:02,970
<i>Today's fucked.</i>

1580
01:24:27,361 --> 01:24:30,562
<i>This intelligence
has been edited,</i>

1581
01:24:30,564 --> 01:24:33,199
<i>redacted, and reduced.</i>

1582
01:24:33,201 --> 01:24:35,200
Mr. Vice President,
usually we vet

1583
01:24:35,202 --> 01:24:36,602
the daily intelligence
threat matrix

1584
01:24:36,604 --> 01:24:38,837
to eliminate unreliable
sources, non-players...

1585
01:24:38,839 --> 01:24:43,845
<i>Stop. Don't you dare give me
a damn disquisition...</i>

1586
01:24:44,845 --> 01:24:46,344
<i>on what I cannot hear.</i>

1587
01:24:46,346 --> 01:24:48,347
Mr. Vice President,

1588
01:24:48,349 --> 01:24:50,029
a lot of this intelligence
is not verified.

1589
01:24:51,352 --> 01:24:52,651
<i>I'm gonna say this
for the last time.</i>

1590
01:24:52,653 --> 01:24:53,651
<i>I want to hear everything</i>

1591
01:24:53,653 --> 01:24:56,353
<i>every day, from now on.</i>

1592
01:24:56,355 --> 01:24:57,589
Yes, sir.

1593
01:24:57,591 --> 01:24:59,891
<i>Proceed.</i>

1594
01:24:59,893 --> 01:25:02,293
We're tracking
the possibility of bio-attacks

1595
01:25:02,295 --> 01:25:05,730
using Sarin gas,
cowpox, Ebola.

1596
01:25:05,732 --> 01:25:08,636
There was a post
on a dark website

1597
01:25:09,769 --> 01:25:12,404
about mass beheadings
in residential areas.

1598
01:25:12,406 --> 01:25:13,804
Movie studios, museums,

1599
01:25:13,806 --> 01:25:17,075
subways, daycare centers
may all be targets.

1600
01:25:17,077 --> 01:25:18,377
A source has told an asset

1601
01:25:18,379 --> 01:25:20,411
about fire-bombs
targeting hospitals.

1602
01:25:20,413 --> 01:25:21,713
A video was captured

1603
01:25:21,715 --> 01:25:23,682
describing televised executions

1604
01:25:23,684 --> 01:25:25,718
interrupting
American network TV.

1605
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:27,552
Sporting
events, tourist attractions,

1606
01:25:27,554 --> 01:25:29,087
New Year's celebrations,
religious ceremonies,

1607
01:25:29,089 --> 01:25:30,855
are all hard targets.

1608
01:25:30,857 --> 01:25:32,391
<i>Machine-gun
attacks at high-profile...</i>

1609
01:25:32,393 --> 01:25:33,892
Biological agents inside...

1610
01:25:33,894 --> 01:25:35,392
Coordinated fire-bombings

1611
01:25:35,394 --> 01:25:37,195
of commuter trains
across North America.

1612
01:25:37,197 --> 01:25:39,330
<i>Water filtration
plants targeted with bio-weapons</i>

1613
01:25:39,332 --> 01:25:40,432
<i>and killing a million people.</i>

1614
01:25:40,434 --> 01:25:41,833
<i>A briefcase nuke</i>

1615
01:25:41,835 --> 01:25:43,835
<i>being driven into
a major city and detonated.</i>

1616
01:25:43,837 --> 01:25:45,270
<i>Airborne
bio-weapons can be put</i>

1617
01:25:45,272 --> 01:25:46,704
<i>into the
air conditioning units</i>

1618
01:25:46,706 --> 01:25:48,906
<i>of large shopping malls
or casinos.</i>

1619
01:25:48,908 --> 01:25:50,776
<i>A beloved
celebrity has been targeted</i>

1620
01:25:50,778 --> 01:25:52,210
<i>for kidnapping
and possibly beheading.</i>

1621
01:25:52,212 --> 01:25:53,611
<i>Phosphorus bombs,</i>

1622
01:25:53,613 --> 01:25:55,882
<i>chlorine attacks, mustard gas,
cluster bombs...</i>

1623
01:26:04,892 --> 01:26:06,527
I'm scared, Dick.

1624
01:26:13,968 --> 01:26:16,136
I'll always take care
of you, Lynne.

1625
01:26:17,837 --> 01:26:18,837
You know that.

1626
01:26:22,042 --> 01:26:23,611
What are you going to do?

1627
01:27:04,251 --> 01:27:05,251
Move, move, move!

1628
01:27:12,425 --> 01:27:14,859
So, while Powell, the CIA,

1629
01:27:14,861 --> 01:27:16,727
and their
international coalition

1630
01:27:16,729 --> 01:27:19,330
toppled the Taliban
and took Afghanistan

1631
01:27:19,332 --> 01:27:20,899
in a matter of weeks,

1632
01:27:20,901 --> 01:27:23,767
Cheney had found something
much more powerful

1633
01:27:23,769 --> 01:27:26,706
than missiles or jet planes.

1634
01:27:27,707 --> 01:27:29,775
<i>Mr. Vice President,
this is John Yoo.</i>

1635
01:27:29,777 --> 01:27:31,913
<i>It's a pleasure to meet you,
Mr. Vice President.</i>

1636
01:27:33,779 --> 01:27:35,213
<i>So David told me
you're looking</i>

1637
01:27:35,215 --> 01:27:37,482
<i>for executive authority.</i>

1638
01:27:37,484 --> 01:27:38,883
Mm-hmm.

1639
01:27:38,885 --> 01:27:40,165
<i>John here
is definitely your guy.</i>

1640
01:27:41,554 --> 01:27:44,121
<i>The war we're now fighting</i>

1641
01:27:44,123 --> 01:27:47,894
<i>will require resources
and abilities that the, uh...</i>

1642
01:27:49,063 --> 01:27:53,731
<i>the current interpretation
of the law... impedes.</i>

1643
01:27:53,733 --> 01:27:54,900
The vice president believes

1644
01:27:54,902 --> 01:27:57,035
it is the duty
of the commander-in-chief

1645
01:27:57,037 --> 01:27:58,137
to protect the nation

1646
01:27:58,139 --> 01:27:59,338
and that no other obligation,

1647
01:27:59,340 --> 01:28:00,806
whether to Congress
or existing treaty

1648
01:28:00,808 --> 01:28:02,176
<i>supersedes that dut.</i>

1649
01:28:03,443 --> 01:28:04,978
<i>How do you feel
about that statemen?</i>

1650
01:28:06,313 --> 01:28:07,482
<i>I couldn't agree more.</i>

1651
01:28:08,948 --> 01:28:11,450
<i>John Yoo's
first legal opinion</i>

1652
01:28:11,452 --> 01:28:13,584
<i>allowed the US government</i>

1653
01:28:13,586 --> 01:28:16,721
<i>to monitor every citizens'
phone calls,</i>

1654
01:28:16,723 --> 01:28:19,156
<i>texts, and e-mails
without a warrant.</i>

1655
01:28:20,595 --> 01:28:23,928
<i>It was a giant legal leap</i>

1656
01:28:23,930 --> 01:28:26,267
<i>based on sketchy law at best.</i>

1657
01:28:27,268 --> 01:28:29,700
<i>But John Yoo's masterpiece,</i>

1658
01:28:29,702 --> 01:28:32,572
<i>his</i> Moby-Dick, <i>if you will,</i>

1659
01:28:33,674 --> 01:28:35,539
<i>was the torture memo.</i>

1660
01:28:35,541 --> 01:28:37,644
...your fucking contact is!

1661
01:28:38,711 --> 01:28:40,012
Where're your fucking hands?

1662
01:28:40,014 --> 01:28:42,283
What about
the Geneva Convention?

1663
01:28:43,117 --> 01:28:45,350
The Geneva Convention
is open to interpretation.

1664
01:28:45,352 --> 01:28:47,052
What exactly does that mean?

1665
01:28:47,054 --> 01:28:49,853
Stress positions,

1666
01:28:49,855 --> 01:28:51,490
waterboarding,
confided spaces, dogs...

1667
01:28:51,492 --> 01:28:53,261
We're calling it
"enhanced interrogation."

1668
01:28:54,260 --> 01:28:55,759
Are we sure
none of this fits

1669
01:28:55,761 --> 01:28:57,495
in the definition
of "torture"?

1670
01:28:57,497 --> 01:28:58,829
The US doesn't torture.

1671
01:28:58,831 --> 01:29:02,967
Therefore,
if the US does it,

1672
01:29:02,969 --> 01:29:06,003
by definition,
it can't be torture.

1673
01:29:10,044 --> 01:29:11,743
<i>But torture and privacy laws</i>

1674
01:29:11,745 --> 01:29:14,545
<i>weren't the only laws Cheney
re-wrote with John Yoo.</i>

1675
01:29:14,547 --> 01:29:17,716
<i>They had a full menu
of legal opinions</i>

1676
01:29:17,718 --> 01:29:19,884
<i>stretching and challenging
constitutional</i>

1677
01:29:19,886 --> 01:29:21,686
<i>and international law.</i>

1678
01:29:21,688 --> 01:29:23,588
Good evening, gentlemen.

1679
01:29:23,590 --> 01:29:26,691
Tonight we're offering
the enemy combatant,

1680
01:29:26,693 --> 01:29:29,128
whereby a person
is not a prisoner of war,

1681
01:29:29,130 --> 01:29:31,030
or a criminal,
which means of course

1682
01:29:31,032 --> 01:29:33,731
that he has absolutely
no protection under the law.

1683
01:29:33,733 --> 01:29:36,267
We're also offering
an extraordinary rendition

1684
01:29:36,269 --> 01:29:39,837
where suspects are abducted
without record on foreign soil

1685
01:29:39,839 --> 01:29:41,339
and taken to foreign prisons

1686
01:29:41,341 --> 01:29:42,673
in countries that still torture.

1687
01:29:42,675 --> 01:29:44,409
Oh, that sounds delicious.

1688
01:29:44,411 --> 01:29:46,277
We also have Guantanamo Bay,

1689
01:29:46,279 --> 01:29:48,280
which is very,
very complicated,

1690
01:29:48,282 --> 01:29:49,914
but it does allow you
to operate

1691
01:29:49,916 --> 01:29:52,250
outside the purview
of due process

1692
01:29:52,252 --> 01:29:54,852
on land which isn't
technically US territory,

1693
01:29:54,854 --> 01:29:56,987
but where we still
do have control.

1694
01:29:56,989 --> 01:29:59,557
And also, we have
a very fresh and delicious

1695
01:29:59,559 --> 01:30:01,793
War Powers Act interpretation

1696
01:30:01,795 --> 01:30:03,928
which gives the executive
branch broad powers

1697
01:30:03,930 --> 01:30:06,498
to attack nations or people

1698
01:30:06,500 --> 01:30:08,767
who it deems
still possibly a threat.

1699
01:30:08,769 --> 01:30:11,803
We have the fact that under
the unitary executive theory,

1700
01:30:11,805 --> 01:30:13,504
if the president
does anything,

1701
01:30:13,506 --> 01:30:15,106
it must be legal.

1702
01:30:15,108 --> 01:30:18,276
Which, of course, means you can
do whatever the fuck you want.

1703
01:30:18,278 --> 01:30:19,576
So, gentlemen,

1704
01:30:19,578 --> 01:30:20,678
which would you like?

1705
01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:23,580
Hmm. We'll, uh,
we'll have them all.

1706
01:30:23,582 --> 01:30:25,083
Excellent choice.

1707
01:30:25,085 --> 01:30:26,120
Thank you.

1708
01:30:26,987 --> 01:30:30,187
Look, Dick,
uh, we've been working

1709
01:30:30,189 --> 01:30:32,656
with these focus groups
and advertising executives

1710
01:30:32,658 --> 01:30:34,860
to try and sell
the War on Terror.

1711
01:30:34,862 --> 01:30:37,329
<i>I'll reiterate,
we are still being recorded,</i>

1712
01:30:37,331 --> 01:30:39,231
<i>and there still may
or may not be clients</i>

1713
01:30:39,233 --> 01:30:40,531
<i>back behind
the two-way mirrors...</i>

1714
01:30:40,533 --> 01:30:43,334
These guys are pretty sharp.

1715
01:30:43,336 --> 01:30:44,337
Go on.

1716
01:30:45,404 --> 01:30:46,672
There's a problem.

1717
01:30:46,674 --> 01:30:48,205
The results show
that people are confused.

1718
01:30:48,207 --> 01:30:50,874
<i>You all support
the president,</i>

1719
01:30:50,876 --> 01:30:54,846
<i>you hate terrorism,
yet you're still confused.</i>

1720
01:30:54,848 --> 01:30:57,350
<i>Can you tell me why?
Anybody?</i>

1721
01:30:58,318 --> 01:31:01,852
<i>Don't we have to just
get Osama bin Laden? He did it.</i>

1722
01:31:01,854 --> 01:31:04,856
So why are they calling it
a war? A war with who?

1723
01:31:04,858 --> 01:31:06,458
<i>Okay, thank you, Mark.</i>

1724
01:31:06,460 --> 01:31:08,860
<i>Uh, Jasmine, jump in, please.</i>

1725
01:31:08,862 --> 01:31:11,361
I don't get what this
Al-Qaeda is.

1726
01:31:11,363 --> 01:31:13,932
Are they a country, like,
why can't we just bomb them?

1727
01:31:13,934 --> 01:31:15,366
That's really interesting.

1728
01:31:15,368 --> 01:31:19,404
Um, is anybody else confused
about what Al-Qaeda is?

1729
01:31:19,406 --> 01:31:20,772
<i>Show of hands, please.</i>

1730
01:31:20,774 --> 01:31:23,107
<i>One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven...</i>

1731
01:31:23,109 --> 01:31:25,877
<i>That's a lot of you. Right?</i>

1732
01:31:25,879 --> 01:31:27,846
Would it be less confusing

1733
01:31:27,848 --> 01:31:29,347
if it was a country?

1734
01:31:29,349 --> 01:31:30,449
Damn right.

1735
01:31:30,451 --> 01:31:31,919
I'm angry as hell.

1736
01:31:32,719 --> 01:31:35,453
We've gotta fuck someone up.

1737
01:31:35,455 --> 01:31:36,954
<i>Got it. Mark.</i>

1738
01:31:36,956 --> 01:31:39,091
Really strong feelings coming
from Mark. I'm interested.

1739
01:31:39,093 --> 01:31:40,725
Does anybody else feel
the same or agree...

1740
01:31:40,727 --> 01:31:42,830
They understand
we're at war, but...

1741
01:31:43,630 --> 01:31:45,364
they don't know
against who.

1742
01:31:45,366 --> 01:31:46,964
They want a country.

1743
01:31:46,966 --> 01:31:48,365
It's cleaner, simpler.

1744
01:31:48,367 --> 01:31:50,267
That would
certainly help us legally.

1745
01:31:50,269 --> 01:31:51,705
Hmm. Well...

1746
01:31:52,839 --> 01:31:55,042
looks like it's time
to take Iraq.

1747
01:31:56,443 --> 01:31:59,213
It is about goddamn time.

1748
01:32:02,882 --> 01:32:07,585
It's called
the Office of Special Plans.

1749
01:32:07,587 --> 01:32:10,687
Tenet is not yet
serious enough

1750
01:32:10,689 --> 01:32:13,124
about the threat
that Saddam poses

1751
01:32:13,126 --> 01:32:14,929
to the global war
on terror.

1752
01:32:15,961 --> 01:32:17,728
But I can promise you

1753
01:32:17,730 --> 01:32:19,830
that this
intelligence group will be.

1754
01:32:19,832 --> 01:32:20,966
Wolfie, I got something.

1755
01:32:20,968 --> 01:32:22,267
Truck transmissions.

1756
01:32:22,269 --> 01:32:23,936
If there's a donkey
with a radio up his ass,

1757
01:32:23,938 --> 01:32:25,003
I wanna know
what it's transmitting.

1758
01:32:25,005 --> 01:32:27,007
I think that's
an excellent idea.

1759
01:32:29,175 --> 01:32:31,509
I've been wantin' to take
that motherfucker Saddam down

1760
01:32:31,511 --> 01:32:33,078
- for a long time.
- Hmm.

1761
01:32:33,080 --> 01:32:35,112
Here's a report
that says Mohamed Atta,

1762
01:32:35,114 --> 01:32:36,681
one of the 9-11 hijackers,

1763
01:32:36,683 --> 01:32:39,316
may have met with
an Iraqi spy in Prague.

1764
01:32:39,318 --> 01:32:40,884
It's a really
strong statement.

1765
01:32:40,886 --> 01:32:42,786
Does anybody agree
with that statement?

1766
01:32:42,788 --> 01:32:45,557
Wait a minute.
We can't just bomb people.

1767
01:32:45,559 --> 01:32:46,591
- Oh, please.
- Yeah, no.

1768
01:32:46,593 --> 01:32:47,758
It's from Czech intelligence,

1769
01:32:47,760 --> 01:32:49,526
and they question
its credibility.

1770
01:32:49,528 --> 01:32:51,762
I've been to Prague.
They question everything.

1771
01:32:51,764 --> 01:32:54,766
Who wants to be
an anonymous source?

1772
01:32:54,768 --> 01:32:56,368
Make sure you work
in the phrase,

1773
01:32:56,370 --> 01:32:58,302
"We don't want the smoking gun
to be a mushroom cloud."

1774
01:32:58,304 --> 01:33:00,638
That focus-grouped
through the roof.

1775
01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:02,973
There will always
be uncertainty

1776
01:33:02,975 --> 01:33:05,977
about when he will acquire
nuclear weapons.

1777
01:33:05,979 --> 01:33:08,480
<i>But we don't want
the smoking gun</i>

1778
01:33:08,482 --> 01:33:09,815
<i>to be a mushroom cloud.</i>

1779
01:33:09,817 --> 01:33:11,850
<i>There is a smoking gun
or a mushroom cloud</i>

1780
01:33:11,852 --> 01:33:13,785
<i>- we have waited too long.
- Simply stated,</i>

1781
01:33:13,787 --> 01:33:16,154
<i>there is no doubt
that Saddam Hussein</i>

1782
01:33:16,156 --> 01:33:18,356
<i>now has weapons
of mass destruction.</i>

1783
01:33:18,358 --> 01:33:20,225
<i>We gotta get rid
of this dictator.</i>

1784
01:33:20,227 --> 01:33:21,959
<i>He's got anthrax,
he's got all these weapons...</i>

1785
01:33:21,961 --> 01:33:24,029
<i>There is no doubt
he is amassing them</i>

1786
01:33:24,031 --> 01:33:25,730
<i>to use them
against our friends,</i>

1787
01:33:25,732 --> 01:33:27,798
<i>against our allies,
and against us.</i>

1788
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:30,735
<i>When, and not if, but when</i>

1789
01:33:30,737 --> 01:33:33,437
<i>Saddam creates
and uses nuclear weapons,</i>

1790
01:33:33,439 --> 01:33:35,373
<i>what will we tell
the American people?</i>

1791
01:33:35,375 --> 01:33:39,244
<i>Saddam Hussein will continue
to increase his capacity</i>

1792
01:33:39,246 --> 01:33:41,545
<i>to wage biological
and chemical warfare.</i>

1793
01:33:41,547 --> 01:33:42,780
- Hello?
<i>- Whassup!</i>

1794
01:33:47,187 --> 01:33:49,987
To show that we will stand up
for what we know to be right,

1795
01:33:49,989 --> 01:33:52,222
to show that we will confront
the tyrannies

1796
01:33:52,224 --> 01:33:53,892
and dictatorships
and terrorists

1797
01:33:53,894 --> 01:33:55,860
who put our way of life
at risk.

1798
01:33:55,862 --> 01:33:57,728
<i>...of winning
a second UN resolution</i>

1799
01:33:57,730 --> 01:33:59,664
<i>authorizing war against Iraq.</i>

1800
01:33:59,666 --> 01:34:01,199
<i>So tonight President Bush...</i>

1801
01:34:01,201 --> 01:34:03,500
<i>...and the hopes
of an oppressed people...</i>

1802
01:34:03,502 --> 01:34:04,572
The tribe has spoken.

1803
01:34:07,373 --> 01:34:09,941
Polling for an invasion
of Iraq

1804
01:34:09,943 --> 01:34:12,076
is at 53 percent.

1805
01:34:12,078 --> 01:34:13,645
Focus groups show people

1806
01:34:13,647 --> 01:34:15,713
still aren't sure
about a connection

1807
01:34:15,715 --> 01:34:18,316
between Saddam and Al-Qaeda.

1808
01:34:18,318 --> 01:34:19,918
And France and Germany
have both said

1809
01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:21,753
that they will not join
our coalition

1810
01:34:21,755 --> 01:34:23,454
And neither will Israel.

1811
01:34:23,456 --> 01:34:26,723
Ariel and I we went
to the Wall together with Condi.

1812
01:34:26,725 --> 01:34:27,892
We-we prayed together.

1813
01:34:27,894 --> 01:34:30,027
Israel's one
of our closest allies.

1814
01:34:30,029 --> 01:34:33,164
They said an invasion
of Iraq would...

1815
01:34:33,166 --> 01:34:35,400
destabilize the region, sir,

1816
01:34:35,402 --> 01:34:37,683
and that they don't believe
Saddam is an immediate threat.

1817
01:34:38,438 --> 01:34:39,838
That's not good.

1818
01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:42,606
I really want
a strong coalition for this.

1819
01:34:42,608 --> 01:34:44,142
I have an idea.

1820
01:34:44,144 --> 01:34:46,076
Secretary Powell has
the highest

1821
01:34:46,078 --> 01:34:48,349
trustworthy ratings
of all of us.

1822
01:34:49,215 --> 01:34:51,516
What if he gave an address
to the UN

1823
01:34:51,518 --> 01:34:53,185
and the American people

1824
01:34:53,187 --> 01:34:55,253
to push this over
the finish line?

1825
01:34:55,255 --> 01:34:57,422
Karl, I have been very vocal,

1826
01:34:57,424 --> 01:34:59,958
very vocal about my reservations
about invading Iraq.

1827
01:34:59,960 --> 01:35:03,561
Oh! Colin, you're such
a nervous Nellie.

1828
01:35:03,563 --> 01:35:05,862
- We are talking about invading...
- A worry wart.

1829
01:35:05,864 --> 01:35:07,499
- ...a sovereign nation...
- Sovereign nation?

1830
01:35:07,501 --> 01:35:09,901
- ...without any provocation, Don.
- Don't give me that...

1831
01:35:09,903 --> 01:35:11,302
It is a sovereign nation, Don.

1832
01:35:11,304 --> 01:35:12,870
...in any way, shape,
or form. You're wrong.

1833
01:35:12,872 --> 01:35:14,105
What's the exit strategy?

1834
01:35:14,107 --> 01:35:16,141
What, what about
the intelligence?

1835
01:35:16,143 --> 01:35:18,109
- Does the intelligence matter to you at all?
- The exit strategy. Oh, please.

1836
01:35:18,111 --> 01:35:19,576
- You break it, you bought it.
- You know you're wrong.

1837
01:35:19,578 --> 01:35:21,146
- You break it, you bought it.
- You're a chicken-shit.

1838
01:35:21,148 --> 01:35:23,315
All right.
Hey, hey, hey, all right.

1839
01:35:23,317 --> 01:35:24,816
Ho-ho-ho-ho.

1840
01:35:24,818 --> 01:35:26,186
Let-let's slow down.

1841
01:35:27,086 --> 01:35:28,719
That's enough of that,
you guys.

1842
01:35:28,721 --> 01:35:30,090
Well, are you...

1843
01:35:31,190 --> 01:35:34,228
gonna take
Saddam down or not?

1844
01:35:35,095 --> 01:35:37,364
You are the president.

1845
01:35:39,965 --> 01:35:43,703
War... is yours.

1846
01:35:45,371 --> 01:35:48,906
Not the UN,
not some coalition.

1847
01:35:48,908 --> 01:35:51,111
Do not share powers...

1848
01:35:52,077 --> 01:35:53,980
that are yours alone.

1849
01:36:01,354 --> 01:36:04,722
George, make sure
Powell sees the intelligence.

1850
01:36:04,724 --> 01:36:06,289
Yes, sir.

1851
01:36:06,291 --> 01:36:08,426
Colin,
I want you to make that speech.

1852
01:36:08,428 --> 01:36:10,494
I'm president,
and I want this to happen.

1853
01:36:10,496 --> 01:36:11,795
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

1854
01:36:11,797 --> 01:36:13,431
Yes, sir.

1855
01:36:13,433 --> 01:36:15,333
I look forward to being briefed
on that intelligence.

1856
01:36:15,335 --> 01:36:18,136
On another note, I've been
handed a credible report

1857
01:36:18,138 --> 01:36:21,806
of a small terrorist enclave
in North Eastern Iraq.

1858
01:36:21,808 --> 01:36:22,906
If we're gonna invade,

1859
01:36:22,908 --> 01:36:24,508
we suggest taking it
out before.

1860
01:36:24,510 --> 01:36:26,410
Let it go, George.
We have bigger fish to fry.

1861
01:36:26,412 --> 01:36:28,545
Let me see that intelligence.

1862
01:36:28,547 --> 01:36:30,248
Of course.

1863
01:36:30,250 --> 01:36:33,218
<i>That classified document</i>

1864
01:36:33,220 --> 01:36:37,554
<i>described a terrorist named
Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi</i>

1865
01:36:37,556 --> 01:36:40,024
<i>who had started
as a drug dealer and pimp</i>

1866
01:36:40,026 --> 01:36:41,692
<i>before becoming
fully radicalized</i>

1867
01:36:41,694 --> 01:36:43,762
<i>in a Jordanian prison.</i>

1868
01:36:43,764 --> 01:36:47,097
<i>Zarqawi went to meet
bin Laden in Afghanistan.</i>

1869
01:36:47,099 --> 01:36:49,601
Did he or did he not meet
with Al-Qaeda?

1870
01:36:49,603 --> 01:36:54,306
<i>But Zarqawi had vowed
to kill all Shia Muslims,</i>

1871
01:36:54,308 --> 01:36:57,609
<i>and bin Laden's mother
was Shia.</i>

1872
01:36:57,611 --> 01:36:59,877
<i>So the meeting
didn't go over well.</i>

1873
01:36:59,879 --> 01:37:01,579
They had
no operational contact.

1874
01:37:01,581 --> 01:37:02,646
Hogwash.

1875
01:37:02,648 --> 01:37:05,850
Larry,
have you seen this speech?

1876
01:37:05,852 --> 01:37:07,351
Yes, sir. It's bone-thin.

1877
01:37:07,353 --> 01:37:10,021
I saw at least five pieces
of disproved intel in there.

1878
01:37:10,023 --> 01:37:11,121
Who wrote it?

1879
01:37:11,123 --> 01:37:12,457
They said
it was the president,

1880
01:37:12,459 --> 01:37:13,924
but I think you can guess
who really wrote it.

1881
01:37:13,926 --> 01:37:16,162
Well, there's no need
to yell, Larry.

1882
01:37:16,996 --> 01:37:20,298
Yeah, well,
we reviewed the speech,

1883
01:37:20,300 --> 01:37:22,236
we gave some notes.

1884
01:37:23,603 --> 01:37:27,304
Powell really doesn't have
a clue, does he?

1885
01:37:27,306 --> 01:37:29,908
<i>After the US
invaded Afghanistan,</i>

1886
01:37:29,910 --> 01:37:32,476
<i>Zarqawi set up shop in Iraq.</i>

1887
01:37:32,478 --> 01:37:35,212
<i>It was the only connection
Cheney had</i>

1888
01:37:35,214 --> 01:37:37,115
<i>between Al-Qaeda and Iraq.</i>

1889
01:37:37,117 --> 01:37:39,517
<i>The Security Council
will now begin</i>

1890
01:37:39,519 --> 01:37:43,521
<i>its consideration
of item two of the agend.</i>

1891
01:37:43,523 --> 01:37:45,722
<i>I call now
on the distinguished</i>

1892
01:37:45,724 --> 01:37:47,025
<i>Secretary of State</i>

1893
01:37:47,027 --> 01:37:48,892
<i>of the United States
of America,</i>

1894
01:37:48,894 --> 01:37:51,396
<i>His Excellency,
Mr. Colin Powell.</i>

1895
01:37:51,398 --> 01:37:54,231
<i>My purpose here today
is to share with you</i>

1896
01:37:54,233 --> 01:37:55,533
<i>what the United States knows</i>

1897
01:37:55,535 --> 01:37:58,703
<i>about Iraq's weapons
of mass destruction</i>

1898
01:37:58,705 --> 01:38:01,638
<i>as well as Iraq's involvement
in terrorism.</i>

1899
01:38:01,640 --> 01:38:04,642
<i>Iraq, today, harbors
a deadly terrorist network</i>

1900
01:38:04,644 --> 01:38:07,579
<i>headed by
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi,</i>

1901
01:38:07,581 --> 01:38:09,813
<i>an associate
and collaborator...</i>

1902
01:38:09,815 --> 01:38:12,549
<i>Powell's UN address was
seen by millions of Americans,</i>

1903
01:38:12,551 --> 01:38:15,219
<i>but other people
were watching as well.</i>

1904
01:38:15,221 --> 01:38:17,088
<i>Collaborator
of Osama bin Laden</i>

1905
01:38:17,090 --> 01:38:18,725
<i>and his Al-Qaeda
lieutenants...</i>

1906
01:38:19,526 --> 01:38:21,426
<i>Zarqawi's activities
are not confined...</i>

1907
01:38:21,428 --> 01:38:22,759
<i>The great general of America</i>

1908
01:38:22,761 --> 01:38:24,862
<i>saying his name
over and over again</i>

1909
01:38:24,864 --> 01:38:27,330
<i>immediately made
Zarqawi a star.</i>

1910
01:38:27,332 --> 01:38:29,267
<i>Staying
in the capital of Iraq...</i>

1911
01:38:29,269 --> 01:38:30,567
<i>Allahu Akbar!</i>

1912
01:38:30,569 --> 01:38:32,971
<i>Within a day,
he had gone into hiding.</i>

1913
01:38:32,973 --> 01:38:35,705
<i>Allahu Akbar!
Allahu Akbar!</i>

1914
01:38:35,707 --> 01:38:38,910
<i>...but these denials
are simply not credible.</i>

1915
01:38:38,912 --> 01:38:41,279
<i>They are simply not credible.</i>

1917
01:38:43,550 --> 01:38:45,816

01:38:45,818 --> 01:38:48,085
<i>that Al-Qaeda would no longer</i>

1919
01:38:48,087 --> 01:38:50,422
<i>support activities
against Baghdad.</i>

1920
01:38:50,424 --> 01:38:52,188
<i>By the time we invaded Iraq,</i>

1921
01:38:52,190 --> 01:38:54,392
<i>70 percent
of Americans thought</i>

1922
01:38:54,394 --> 01:38:57,197
<i>that Saddam Hussein
was involved in 9-11.</i>

1923
01:38:58,665 --> 01:39:02,098
<i>Later, Colin Powell
would call the speech</i>

1924
01:39:02,100 --> 01:39:04,901
<i>the most painful moment
of his life.</i>

1925
01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:08,840
<i>Thank you, sir.</i>

1926
01:39:10,475 --> 01:39:12,308
<i>And what was it?
Justin, right?</i>

1927
01:39:12,310 --> 01:39:13,710
<i>She can buy
her album now, Mom.</i>

1928
01:39:13,712 --> 01:39:15,579
What was
the girl's name that won?

1929
01:39:15,581 --> 01:39:17,682
- No, Kelly. And then Justin.
- Last year.

1930
01:39:17,684 --> 01:39:19,283
What are you talking about?

1931
01:39:19,285 --> 01:39:21,218
We're talking about
<i>American Idol,</i> Dad.

1932
01:39:21,220 --> 01:39:22,320
What is that?

1933
01:39:22,322 --> 01:39:23,687
We watched it.
You've seen it.

1934
01:39:23,689 --> 01:39:26,091
- You've seen it...
- I've watched it next to you.

1935
01:39:26,093 --> 01:39:27,924
The singing, and the
mean judge, and the...

1936
01:39:27,926 --> 01:39:29,326
I don't like that...

1937
01:39:29,328 --> 01:39:30,927
- The mean British judge?
- You liked it.

1938
01:39:30,929 --> 01:39:32,597
- You liked the mean British...
- Oh, I like him.

1939
01:39:32,599 --> 01:39:33,634
Yeah, you...

1940
01:39:34,401 --> 01:39:36,433
Do you know how
to stop a fish from smelling?

1941
01:39:36,435 --> 01:39:37,834
Very appropriate.

1942
01:39:37,836 --> 01:39:40,905
That's not a...
That's a terrible joke.

1943
01:39:40,907 --> 01:39:42,472
Well, I didn't finish it yet.

1944
01:39:42,474 --> 01:39:43,973
I mean, everybody.

1945
01:39:43,975 --> 01:39:46,276
You cut off its nose.

1946
01:39:46,278 --> 01:39:48,413
Wait, what?

1947
01:39:48,415 --> 01:39:50,414
I know, Grace,
cover your ears please.

1948
01:39:50,416 --> 01:39:53,517
- Cheers, honey.
- Cheers. Oh, my gosh.

1949
01:39:53,519 --> 01:39:55,186
- We're not.
- No, we're not.

1950
01:39:55,188 --> 01:39:56,521

colorful conversations...

1952

Yeah, yeah. Bring it
a little closer. Yeah.

1957
01:40:28,087 --> 01:40:30,053

1958
01:40:30,055 --> 01:40:32,156
- Looks good.
- Tie?

1959
01:40:32,158 --> 01:40:35,562
And we are five,
four, three...

1960
01:40:36,496 --> 01:40:38,896
My fellow citizens,
at this hour,

1961
01:40:38,898 --> 01:40:40,765
American and coalition forces

1962
01:40:40,767 --> 01:40:44,468
are in the early stages
of military operations

1963
01:40:44,470 --> 01:40:47,637
to disarm Iraq,
to free its people

1964
01:40:47,639 --> 01:40:50,076
and to defend the world
from grave danger.

1965
01:40:50,978 --> 01:40:54,311
On my orders, coalition forces
have begun striking

1966
01:40:54,313 --> 01:40:57,315
selected targets
of military importance

1967
01:40:57,317 --> 01:41:00,017
to undermine
Saddam Hussein's ability

1968
01:41:00,019 --> 01:41:01,619
to wage war.

1969
01:41:01,621 --> 01:41:03,754
These are opening stages
of what will be

1970
01:41:03,756 --> 01:41:07,225
a broad
and concerted campaign.

1971
01:41:07,227 --> 01:41:10,326
To all the men and women of
the United States Armed Forces

1972
01:41:10,328 --> 01:41:12,329
now in the Middle East,

1973
01:41:12,331 --> 01:41:14,431
the peace of a troubled world

1974
01:41:14,433 --> 01:41:17,502
and the hopes
of an oppressed people...

1975
01:41:48,334 --> 01:41:50,066
Guys, over here.
Two o'clock.

1976
01:41:50,068 --> 01:41:51,468
Contact, two hundred yards.

1977
01:41:54,573 --> 01:41:56,106
<i>This statement
from the White House,</i>

1978
01:41:56,108 --> 01:41:59,677

as an historic moment.</i>

1979
01:41:59,679 --> 01:42:01,478
<i>The scenes on television show</i>

1984
01:42:25,071 --> 01:42:26,340
<i>Good work.</i>

1985
01:42:30,210 --> 01:42:32,412
Hi. Um...

1986
01:42:33,746 --> 01:42:37,080
It seems like they've been
shipping men and equipment

1987
01:42:37,082 --> 01:42:39,385
out of Afghanistan, into Iraq,

1988
01:42:40,752 --> 01:42:43,855
and at the moment,
we're a little unsure

1989
01:42:43,857 --> 01:42:45,892
of what's going on.

1990
01:42:48,161 --> 01:42:51,598
I don't want you
to worry about me.

1991
01:42:58,505 --> 01:43:02,272
<i>Major combat operations
in Iraq have ended.</i>

1992
01:43:02,274 --> 01:43:03,908
<i>In the battle of Iraq,</i>

1993
01:43:03,910 --> 01:43:07,080
<i>the United States
and our allies have prevailed.</i>

1994
01:43:08,246 --> 01:43:10,582
We have concerns
over Halliburton KBR's

1995
01:43:10,584 --> 01:43:11,850
billing practices.

1996
01:43:12,617 --> 01:43:15,018
As you know, the no-bid
contracts they received

1997
01:43:15,020 --> 01:43:16,855
were quite sizable, and now...

1998
01:43:16,857 --> 01:43:19,356
Well, we're not concerned,
are we?

1999
01:43:19,358 --> 01:43:20,358
Not at all.

2000
01:43:21,060 --> 01:43:23,660
The secretary of defense
and the vice president

2001
01:43:23,662 --> 01:43:25,498
just said
they're not concerned.

2002
01:43:26,332 --> 01:43:28,033
Now, can we please talk
about Iran?

2003
01:43:40,013 --> 01:43:43,446
<i>To this day, Dick Cheney

2004
01:43:43,448 --> 01:43:44,749
<i>for this incident.</i>

2005
01:43:44,751 --> 01:43:47,517

2006
01:43:47,519 --> 01:43:49,587

- Oh, hell.

2007
01:43:49,589 --> 01:43:52,690

2008

2014
01:44:09,541 --> 01:44:11,710
So, this, uh...

2015
01:44:12,944 --> 01:44:16,847
Joe Wilson asshole...

2016

Valerie Plame.

2020
01:44:26,626 --> 01:44:29,162
I confirmed it.
She's undercover CIA.

2021
01:44:30,328 --> 01:44:31,564
Leak it.

2022
01:44:47,345 --> 01:44:48,913
Okay, okay.

2023
01:44:48,915 --> 01:44:50,615
Like, they don't care
about their dogs, man.

2024
01:44:50,617 --> 01:44:52,516
I mean they shoot 'em.
They let 'em roam wild.

2025
01:44:52,518 --> 01:44:53,953
What kinda man
don't love a dog?

2026
01:44:54,720 --> 01:44:56,152
People in India love cows.

2027
01:44:56,154 --> 01:44:57,554
They look at us

2028
01:44:57,556 --> 01:44:59,257
and how we treat cows
and think the same thing.

2029
01:44:59,259 --> 01:45:01,191
Cows. All due respect...

2030
01:45:01,193 --> 01:45:03,697
that sounds like some liberal
ass-scratchin' bullshit...

2031

Linda.

2032
01:45:17,410 --> 01:45:18,575

the same fucking Zarqawi
we talked up for months,

2037
01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:30,087
is now leading
a major insurgence in Iraq.

2038
01:45:30,089 --> 01:45:33,458
And the implication is
it's because we talked him up.

2039
01:45:33,460 --> 01:45:35,124
Has POTUS seen this?

2040
01:45:35,126 --> 01:45:36,326
No, no, no.

2041
01:45:36,328 --> 01:45:39,629

it got across the hallway.

2086
01:47:42,420 --> 01:47:44,253
<i>Dick Cheney,
a little bit low and outside.</i>

2087
01:47:44,255 --> 01:47:47,158
<i>Iraq War,
now proven to be false.</i>

2088
01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:49,259
<i>There is a chorus
of people calling</i>

2089
01:47:49,261 --> 01:47:52,061
<i>for Vice President Dick Cheney
to step aside and resign.</i>

2090
01:47:52,063 --> 01:47:54,999
<i>These issues may
not be resolved for some time.</i>

2091
01:47:55,001 --> 01:47:56,136
Go away!

2092
01:48:04,010 --> 01:48:05,609
I swear to God

2093
01:48:05,611 --> 01:48:07,881
this whole place
is turning against me.

2094
01:48:11,850 --> 01:48:13,918
<i>- Where are you?
- I'm in an empty office</i>

2095
01:48:13,920 --> 01:48:15,485
<i>just trying to get
a clean phone line.</i>

2096
01:48:15,487 --> 01:48:18,722
<i>Listen, if we could just get</i>

2097
01:48:18,724 --> 01:48:20,057
an air bombardment in Iraq,

2098
01:48:20,059 --> 01:48:21,859
I think it would make
a statement

2099
01:48:21,861 --> 01:48:23,727
<i>and it would give us
some political cover.</i>

2100
01:48:23,729 --> 01:48:25,594
It's over, Don.

2101
01:48:25,596 --> 01:48:26,700
<i>What's that?</i>

2102
01:48:27,500 --> 01:48:29,299
What is?

2103
01:48:29,301 --> 01:48:30,601
<i>It's over.</i>

2104
01:48:30,603 --> 01:48:31,869
<i>President wants you
to step down.</i>

2105
01:48:31,871 --> 01:48:33,440
<i>He appreciates your service.</i>

2106
01:48:39,679 --> 01:48:40,846
Don?

2107
01:48:43,750 --> 01:48:46,717
Well, does, uh...

2108
01:48:46,719 --> 01:48:49,089
Bush's kid want me out
or do you?

2109
01:48:52,524 --> 01:48:54,057
I can't win every fight, Don.

2110
01:48:54,059 --> 01:48:55,961
You are a little piece
of shit.

2111
01:48:58,363 --> 01:49:01,401
<i>Wow. How did you become
such a cold son of a bitch?</i>

2112
01:49:02,402 --> 01:49:03,470
<i>I'm sorry, Don.</i>

2113
01:49:04,670 --> 01:49:06,005
<i>I really am.</i>

2114
01:49:07,907 --> 01:49:09,976
<i>Well, you know
how I know you're not?</i>

2115
01:49:11,711 --> 01:49:13,146
'Cause I wouldn't be.

2116
01:49:19,451 --> 01:49:20,987
Think they'll prosecute us?

2117
01:49:25,724 --> 01:49:27,093
Okay, then.

2118
01:49:30,362 --> 01:49:31,396
Okay, then.

2119
01:49:52,984 --> 01:49:55,854
<i>I, Barack Hussein Obama,
do solemnly swear...</i>

2120
01:49:56,656 --> 01:49:59,021
<i>That I will execute the office</i>

2121
01:49:59,023 --> 01:50:01,726
<i>of president to
the United States faithfully.</i>

2122
01:50:08,867 --> 01:50:10,734
Few years later,

2123
01:50:10,736 --> 01:50:12,971
Dick's heart trouble
started up again.

2124
01:50:13,872 --> 01:50:16,173
And with no donor available,

2125
01:50:16,175 --> 01:50:19,445
he finally found himself
at death's door.

2126
01:50:25,952 --> 01:50:27,187
Well?

2127
01:50:27,987 --> 01:50:31,088
I wish I had...
I had better news.

2128
01:50:31,090 --> 01:50:33,557
Your heart just isn't pumping
enough oxygen

2129
01:50:33,559 --> 01:50:35,128
to keep
your vital organs alive.

2130
01:50:37,697 --> 01:50:39,530
Should I call for a minister?

2131
01:50:39,532 --> 01:50:42,869
No, no.
He's not going anywhere.

2132
01:50:45,371 --> 01:50:47,006
Okay, then.

2133
01:50:49,943 --> 01:50:51,408
Dick Cheney,

2134
01:50:51,410 --> 01:50:54,380
you are not going anywhere,
do you hear me?

2135
01:50:55,148 --> 01:50:56,746
You're not going anywhere.

2136
01:50:56,748 --> 01:50:58,084
This may be the, uh...

2137
01:50:59,417 --> 01:51:00,817
one time, I, uh,

2138
01:51:00,819 --> 01:51:01,987
I can't do...

2139
01:51:03,121 --> 01:51:05,257
what your mother says, girls.

2140
01:51:15,501 --> 01:51:17,621
- I love you, Daddy.
- I love you, Mary.

2141
01:51:18,437 --> 01:51:20,637
I love you, Lizzie.

2142
01:51:20,639 --> 01:51:22,909
And we love you so much.

2143
01:51:24,010 --> 01:51:25,642
We love you so much.

2144
01:51:25,644 --> 01:51:27,080
My girls.

2145
01:51:32,952 --> 01:51:34,554
I love you, girls.

2146
01:51:48,399 --> 01:51:53,169
So Dick Cheney told his family
that he was ready to die

2147
01:51:53,171 --> 01:51:55,239
and that he wasn't afraid.

2148
01:51:55,241 --> 01:51:58,642
He told them
he had lived a full life

2149
01:51:58,644 --> 01:51:59,977
and that
he had zero regrets...

2150
01:52:52,163 --> 01:52:55,100
Vice President Cheney,
cross your arms, please.

2151
01:52:56,234 --> 01:52:59,069
There you go.
Okay, on a count of three.

2152
01:52:59,071 --> 01:53:00,707
One, two, three.

2153
01:53:03,776 --> 01:53:07,046
They say my heart could
give him another ten years.

2154
01:53:08,447 --> 01:53:12,583
Cheney doesn't like to refer
to it as someone else's heart.

2155
01:53:12,585 --> 01:53:15,421
He likes to refer to it
as his new heart.

2156
01:53:16,721 --> 01:53:19,392
Which, even though I'm dead,
I have to say...

2157
01:53:20,492 --> 01:53:22,628
still makes me feel
pretty shitty.

2158
01:53:24,630 --> 01:53:28,130
<i>And so, when Liz decided
to run for one</i>

2159
01:53:28,132 --> 01:53:30,200
<i>of Wyoming's
two Senate seats</i>

2160
01:53:30,202 --> 01:53:33,803
<i>against Republican incumbent
Mike Enzi,</i>

2161
01:53:33,805 --> 01:53:35,472
<i>our Dick was right there</i>

2162
01:53:35,474 --> 01:53:38,909
<i>to hopefully see the Cheney
legacy of power continue.</i>

2163
01:53:38,911 --> 01:53:42,079
<i>Are you aware Wyoming
Senate candidate Liz Cheney</i>

2164
01:53:42,081 --> 01:53:43,512
<i>supports gay marriage?</i>

2165
01:53:43,514 --> 01:53:45,316
<i>Her sister is married
to another woman,</i>

2166
01:53:45,318 --> 01:53:47,350
<i>and Liz Cheney refuses
to support</i>

2167
01:53:47,352 --> 01:53:50,786
<i>a constitutional amendment
banning same-sex marriage.</i>

2168
01:53:50,788 --> 01:53:52,054
<i>Instead, she equivocates,</i>

2169
01:53:52,056 --> 01:53:53,957
<i>claiming it's a states
rights issue.</i>

2170
01:53:53,959 --> 01:53:55,624
<i>Don't you agree
Wyoming deserves</i>

2171
01:53:55,626 --> 01:53:58,160
<i>a senator who believes
marriage should be</i>

2172
01:53:58,162 --> 01:53:59,663
<i>between a man and a woman?</i>

2173
01:53:59,665 --> 01:54:02,100
These calls went
to every house in Wyoming.

2174
01:54:03,169 --> 01:54:04,770
Every single house.

2175
01:54:07,939 --> 01:54:09,375
I will never win.

2176
01:54:11,809 --> 01:54:13,345
What are we gonna do?

2177
01:54:16,782 --> 01:54:19,051
O2 monitor is steady.

2178
01:54:21,453 --> 01:54:23,686
We're joined
here today by Liz Cheney,

2179
01:54:23,688 --> 01:54:26,923
who is running for the Senate
from the state of Wyoming.

2180
01:54:26,925 --> 01:54:28,292
According to one poll,

2181
01:54:28,294 --> 01:54:31,061
she is behind
by double digits.

2182
01:54:31,063 --> 01:54:32,228
Welcome.

2183
01:54:32,230 --> 01:54:33,329
Thank you
for having me here, Chris.

2184
01:54:33,331 --> 01:54:34,597
Great to be with you.

2185
01:54:34,599 --> 01:54:35,966
And may I point out,
there are other polls

2186
01:54:35,968 --> 01:54:38,035
that have me much closer.

2187
01:54:38,037 --> 01:54:39,502
<i>Your opponent,
Senator Mike Enzi,</i>

2188
01:54:39,504 --> 01:54:42,638
<i>claims that you support
gay marriage</i>

2189
01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:44,607
<i>in part, because...</i>

2190
01:54:44,609 --> 01:54:47,343
<i>you support your gay sister
Mary's union with her wife.</i>

2191
01:54:47,345 --> 01:54:48,779
I think
she's coming off very well.

2192
01:54:48,781 --> 01:54:49,780
<i>How do you respond?</i>

2193
01:54:49,782 --> 01:54:52,685
<i>Let me be very, very clear.</i>

2194
01:54:54,086 --> 01:54:57,620
<i>I do not support gay marriage.</i>

2195
01:54:57,622 --> 01:55:01,558
<i>I believe that marriage
is between a man and a woma.</i>

2196
01:55:01,560 --> 01:55:02,993
<i>But you've always claimed</i>

2197
01:55:02,995 --> 01:55:04,660
<i>gay marriage is a state issue.</i>

2198
01:55:04,662 --> 01:55:08,097
<i>Your opponent claims
this is an equivocation.</i>

2199
01:55:08,099 --> 01:55:09,600
All right,
I'm cutting the aorta.

2200
01:55:09,602 --> 01:55:11,101
Do you have
the specimen bowl ready?

2201
01:55:11,103 --> 01:55:12,535
It's on the field.

2202
01:55:12,537 --> 01:55:14,370
All right.
Here's the heart.

2203
01:55:14,372 --> 01:55:15,638
The thing is, Mom, I know
that Liz wouldn't have done

2204
01:55:15,640 --> 01:55:17,774
any of this if you
and Dad didn't approve.

2205
01:55:17,776 --> 01:55:19,176
So...

2206
01:55:19,178 --> 01:55:20,576
I can't believe
you would do th...

2207
01:55:20,578 --> 01:55:22,344
I really thought
there was a limit to...

2208
01:55:22,346 --> 01:55:24,882
No, now you're
just being hysterical,

2209
01:55:24,884 --> 01:55:27,049
and I can't talk to you
when you get this way.

2210
01:55:27,051 --> 01:55:30,320
You need to settle down. Okay?

2211
01:55:30,322 --> 01:55:31,922
You're being hysterical.

2212
01:55:31,924 --> 01:55:34,156
Bypass is on standby.

2213
01:55:34,158 --> 01:55:35,691
Is it in three?

2214
01:55:35,693 --> 01:55:37,373
I'll have it
waiting right here.

2215
01:56:12,264 --> 01:56:14,731
All right,
some suction. Some suction.

2216
01:56:14,733 --> 01:56:15,935
Damn.

2217
01:56:48,500 --> 01:56:50,269
All right. We're almost there.

2218
01:57:03,916 --> 01:57:04,951
Dad.

2219
01:57:25,269 --> 01:57:27,772
Just breathe, baby.
I love you.

2220
01:58:27,532 --> 01:58:29,468
Patient's heart rate is stable.

2221
01:58:30,434 --> 01:58:31,969
Blood pressure increasing.

2222
01:58:32,904 --> 01:58:35,304
I'm gonna notify the family.
What should I tell them?

2223
01:58:35,306 --> 01:58:36,940
Tell them
the patient's doing well.

2224
01:58:36,942 --> 01:58:39,008
- Okay.
- We should be done in a half-hour.

2225
01:59:11,143 --> 01:59:12,475
<i>Mr. Vice President.</i>

2226
01:59:12,477 --> 01:59:14,244
<i>This must be
the right place.</i>

2227
01:59:14,246 --> 01:59:15,611
<i>Yes.</i>

2228
01:59:15,613 --> 01:59:17,379
<i>- Hello, Martha.
- Hi.</i>

2229
01:59:17,381 --> 01:59:18,682
<i>- Nice to meet you.
- Pleasure.</i>

2230
01:59:18,684 --> 01:59:21,517
Have a seat right there.

2231
01:59:21,519 --> 01:59:26,390
So, um, is it gonna be just,
uh, me on camera or...

2232
01:59:26,392 --> 01:59:28,924
Primarily you.
We'll cut back to me.

2233
01:59:28,926 --> 01:59:30,393
<i>Eddie's got you
with the A camera.</i>

2234
01:59:30,395 --> 01:59:32,428
I'm just gonna be...
All right.

2235
02:00:02,560 --> 02:00:04,130
- Ready?
- Hmm.

2236
02:00:06,364 --> 02:00:07,763
Two-thirds of Americans say

2237
02:00:07,765 --> 02:00:11,301
the Iraq War
is not worth fighting.

2238
02:00:11,303 --> 02:00:13,704
And they're looking
at the value gained

2239
02:00:13,706 --> 02:00:15,972
versus the cost
in American lives

2240
02:00:15,974 --> 02:00:17,406
and Iraqi lives.

2241
02:00:17,408 --> 02:00:18,710
So?

2242
02:00:20,010 --> 02:00:23,515
So, don't you care what
the American people think?

2243
02:00:24,648 --> 02:00:28,450
No, uh,
I think you, uh,

2244
02:00:28,452 --> 02:00:31,119
cannot be, uh,

2245
02:00:31,121 --> 02:00:32,624
blown off course.

2246
02:00:41,465 --> 02:00:45,603
I can feel
your recriminations...

2247
02:00:46,938 --> 02:00:48,072
and your judgment...

2248
02:00:49,107 --> 02:00:50,676
and I am fine with it.

2249
02:00:53,112 --> 02:00:56,449
You want to be loved,
go be a movie star.

2250
02:00:58,515 --> 02:01:01,651
The world is as you find it.

2251
02:01:01,653 --> 02:01:04,655
You gotta deal
with that reality.

2252
02:01:04,657 --> 02:01:07,390
And there are monsters
in this world.

2253
02:01:07,392 --> 02:01:12,728
We saw 3,000 innocent people

2254
02:01:12,730 --> 02:01:15,731
burned to death
by those monsters.

2255
02:01:15,733 --> 02:01:17,469
And yet you object...

2256
02:01:18,303 --> 02:01:19,701
when I refuse

2257
02:01:19,703 --> 02:01:22,237
to kiss those monsters
on the cheek

2258
02:01:22,239 --> 02:01:24,606
and say "pretty please."

2259
02:01:24,608 --> 02:01:26,043
You answer me this.

2260
02:01:26,045 --> 02:01:30,847
What terrorist attack
would you have let go forward

2261
02:01:30,849 --> 02:01:35,220
so you wouldn't seem like
a mean and nasty fella?

2262
02:01:36,822 --> 02:01:39,058
I will not apologize...

2263
02:01:40,492 --> 02:01:42,194
for keeping your family safe.

2264
02:01:43,495 --> 02:01:45,296
And I will not apologize...

2265
02:01:46,064 --> 02:01:48,834
for doing what needed
to be done...

2266
02:01:50,234 --> 02:01:52,268
so that your loved ones

2267
02:01:52,270 --> 02:01:53,973
can sleep peaceably at night.

2268
02:02:01,313 --> 02:02:02,681
Has been my honor...

2269
02:02:04,049 --> 02:02:05,251
to be your servant.

2270
02:02:07,452 --> 02:02:08,821
You chose me...

2271
02:02:10,389 --> 02:02:13,292
and I did what you asked.

2272
02:02:58,237 --> 02:02:59,237
I know you do.

2273
02:05:06,931 --> 02:05:08,630
Sorry to interrupt,
But Mark wanted

2274
02:05:08,632 --> 02:05:09,999
to share something
with everyone.

2275
02:05:10,001 --> 02:05:12,602
Something's been bothering me
this whole movie,

2276
02:05:12,604 --> 02:05:14,670
and I just figured it out.

2277
02:05:14,672 --> 02:05:16,573
The whole thing's liberal.

2278
02:05:16,575 --> 02:05:18,374
It's got a liberal bias.

2279
02:05:18,376 --> 02:05:20,946
Interesting. Does anyone else
feel that way?

2280
02:05:21,947 --> 02:05:24,580
One, two, three, four people.
Yeah, go ahead.

2281
02:05:24,582 --> 02:05:26,816
It's all facts. Right?

2282
02:05:26,818 --> 02:05:30,285
I mean, they had to vet all this with
a lawyer. How does that make it...

2283
02:05:30,287 --> 02:05:33,789
- What's liberal about that?
- You would say that, lib-tard.

2284
02:05:33,791 --> 02:05:35,423
Okay, I'm sorry.

2285
02:05:35,425 --> 02:05:37,727
So, because I have the ability
to understand facts,

2286
02:05:37,729 --> 02:05:38,927
that makes me a liberal?

2287
02:05:38,929 --> 02:05:40,463
Okay, guys,
let's just take it down.

2288
02:05:40,465 --> 02:05:42,298
You probably like Hillary.

2289
02:05:42,300 --> 02:05:44,034
- Let's take it down a notch or two, okay?
- Idiot.

2290
02:05:44,036 --> 02:05:46,401
Okay, first of all,
Hillary's not president. Okay?

2291
02:05:46,403 --> 02:05:49,371
The-the-the orange Cheeto
that you hired

2292
02:05:49,373 --> 02:05:50,806
is the president
and he's ruining the country...

2293
02:05:50,808 --> 02:05:52,842
Trump is the best thing
in this country.

2294
02:05:52,844 --> 02:05:53,910
You chicken-shit!

2295
02:05:53,912 --> 02:05:55,744
<i>John! Now, come in, please.</i>

2296
02:05:55,746 --> 02:05:57,179
<i>Hey, guys, come on.</i>

2297
02:05:57,181 --> 02:06:00,115
- Guys! Guys!
<i>- Stop it. Knock it off!</i>

2298
02:06:00,117 --> 02:06:01,851
I can't wait to see the new
<i>Fast and the Furious</i> movie.

2299
02:06:01,853 --> 02:06:03,522
That looks lit.

2300
