[ Bob Dole crankily enters the Oval Office ]
Bob Dole: That’s right, you bet! That Superbowl commercial was worth every dime! Scram! Get the hell out of here! Bob Dole’s got three hours to pick an agenda, I got it all planned out here! The first twenty minutes, pick out a new cabinet! Next half-an-hour, meet with Congress, announce a balanced budget amendment! Next ten minutes, pull out our troops from Bosnia! Next forty-five minutes, well that’s nap time! Then, Bob Dole will wake up, roll back affirmative ation, that damn thing..
