Matt Dillon’s Monologue

…..Matt Dillon

[CUT to Studio 8H. The large clock in the foreground reads 12:32 on the right clockface, and 11:33 on the left face.]

Don Pardo: Ladies and gentlemen: Matt Dillon!

[Wearing a black jacket over a dark blue t-shirt, Dillon saunters out to home base over applause as the music winds up.]

Matt Dillon: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, thank you very much. Thanks, thanks! [waves hands] Listen, I have to say, this is really–it’s been a crazy week for me. Uh, here I am, hosting “Saturday Night Live”… and only six days ago, I was in L.A. at the Academy Awards, and even though, I didn’t, y’know, I didn’t win, just getting nominated is an honor, of course, that is… y’know, ’til you LOSE. [laughter] But in any case, that night was a tremendous thrill for me, since “Crash” won Best Picture.

[riotous cheers and applause]

Matt Dillon: Y’know, I… thank you. I was so proud to be a part of this film, and playing a racist L.A. cop for six months, y’know, really helped me, uh, better understand the issues of race in America today. My only regret is that I… I didn’t get a chance to read my acceptance speech. So… [laughter] I hope you guys, I’d like ta… is that all right, can I do that?

[The audience and bandmembers cheer wildly as Dillon pulls a crumpled piece of paper out of his inner jacket pocket.]

Matt Dillon: Okay. Here goes. [reads off cue cards] Wow, wow, oh wow, wow, that’s… I’d like to thank the Academy. Clooney, you can’t win ’em all! I want to dedicate this to the most talented and diverse cast I’ve ever worked with. Sandra Bullock, Ryan Philippi, uhhhh… oh, Terence Howard, what an actor. I hope you win tonight, Terry. I didn’t get to see the pimp movie… but it’s probably not for me, right? Uh, Ludicrous, you played a great gangster. I know it’s not too much of a stretch. I’m just playin’ with you, brother, just playin’–but he knows what I’m talkin’ about! He knows what I’m talkin’ about. Let’s see, I–I wanna thank, I wanna thank all the Asians in the cast.

[laughter]

Matt Dillon: I’m sorry I kept gettin’ you guys confused. [laughter] But it didn’t matter, because you were all great. Oh, oh–and the Hispanics. They were such an amazing… God, y’know, such an amazing work ethic on those people. Y’know, I was so tired…

[laughter and applause]

Matt Dillon: I was so tired at the end of the day, and to think that they all had to… to run off to jump into the back of one, one pickup truck, and go to their second and third jobs. Unbelievable, you know. Oh, and the Arab family. I know none of you are gonna believe this, but they were so nice. They really were the sweetest people. And so CLEAN, so clean.

[laughter]

Matt Dillon: Uh, who else… Oh! All the gays in the wardrobe department. Snaps to you. Uh, my agent, uh, my manager, the producers. Heck, you know, all the Jews who worked in this production…

[laughter and applause]

Matt Dillon: And of course, I’d like to thank my mom. I come from a big Irish family, and my mother was always able to take the time to put down the potato peeler and her flask of whiskey… [laughter] …and give me and my 16 brothers and sisters all the love and support we needed. I LOVE ya, Ma!!

[cheers and applause]

Matt Dillon: We’ve got a great show for ya tonight, Arctic Monkeys are here, so stick around, we’ll be back.

[ZOOM out over cheers and applause.]

TV Land Variety Vault

Voiceover…..Chris Parnell
Vincent Price…..Bill Hader
Don Knotts…..Darrell Hammond
Katherine Hepburn…..Kristen Wiig
Rod Serling…..Matt Dillon

[FADE IN on the TV Land Variety Vault logo with the year “1961” in the middle. ’60s go-go horns play in the background.]

Voiceover: You’re watching TV Land After Dark. You’re high right now, aren’t you?

[FADE to a dark, Gothic parlor as spooky organ music plays. Enter Vincent with a raven on his right shoulder. Lightning and thunder abound.]

Vincent: Salutations, soon-to-be-denizens of the underworld. I’m… Vincent Price. Prepare to embark on a journey MOST wicked! Where, you ask, is our ultimate destination? Is it Mammon’s lair, buried deep within the darkest depths of all-consuming hellfire? Or is it… my St. Patrick’s Day Special?

[CUT to a gray background which is slowly superimposed with the show title in horror film lettering. Happy theme music bounces underneath.]

Announcer: [in a jolly voice] It’s Vincent Price’s St. Patrick’s Day Special. Now, please welcome your host, master of the unholy darkness: Vincent Price!

[FADE back to Vincent over applause.]

Vincent: Erin Go Bragh, brave pilgrim. The holiday ritual in which you are set to participate traces its origins to the most mystical of Celtic tribes: the Druids. Each year those dark souls celebrated the feast of Flaggle-Flaggle-Douschen. A human sacrificial celebration honoring the beast god Braggoth. A pre-vernal Baphenal that would shame Baphomet himself. BLOOD POURING OUT OF EVERY–

[doorbell rings]

Vincent: Oh, who could that be?

[Organ music rises as a coffin lid in the right-hand wall opens up to reveal Deputy Barney Fife.]

Barney: Well, hello, Vincent! Top of the morning to you!

Vincent: Well, if it isn’t Deputy Barney Fife! As portrayed by my good friend, Mr. Don Knotts.

Barney: Hello, every–

[applause]

Barney: Yeah, well…

Vincent: Hello, Barney.

Barney: Hello, everyone! Uh, Vincent, we got a call in to the sheriff’s department saying you were having a St. Paddy’s Day special, and I thought–I thought–Vincent, what in thee WORLD?!

Vincent: I… don’t know what you mean.

Barney: Well, look at all this, ghouls, goblins, cobwebs, coffins! Price, you gotta lighten UP!

Vincent: Yes.

Barney: You gotta have some FUN!

Vincent: Yes.

Barney: Here, put on this hat.

[Barney takes a toy bowler hat with a loop attached to the brim and reaches to put it on Vincent’s head.]

Vincent: [leans away] Well, I’m not… really…

Barney: Put it on!

Vincent: Come on, I’m not a hat person, I’m not…

Barney: Oh, come on, come on–ohhhh, YEAH!

[Barney sets the tiny hat atop Vincent’s head and loops the string under his chin.]

Vincent: You’re right.

Barney: Yeah! [exits]

Vincent: [dryly] It’s perfect.

[organ music rises]

Vincent: AND THE UNHOLY BLOOD FEAST CONTINUES! [thunderclap] I’d like to take this opportunity to recite a short but nonetheless horrifying poem I wrote for this very occasion. I will be accompanied in this endeavor by the melodious tones of the Kilkenny Pipers. BOYS?

[Two bagpipers come out and flank Vincent on either side.]

Vincent: Midnight on the shores of Loch Dirge.

[The bagpipers fire up their instruments loudly.]

Vincent: [shouting over bagpipes] Hounds baying at the scent of freshly spilled blood! Corner of the wicked…

[The Pipers go full-throttle into song and completely drown Vincent out. He shouts his poem uselessly for about ten seconds, gesturing low and high, then finally stops and glares at the piper on his left. When he yells at them to stop, Barney reappears in front of them.]

Barney: Nip it in thee BUD!

Vincent: Thank you, Donny!

Barney: Yeah, well… [exits]

Vincent: [tears up poem] Let’s move on, shall we?

[organ music rises]

Vincent: Each holiday has its traditional foods. In the days of yore, the Druid High Priest would consume the still-beating hearts of one thousand virgins. Today, nothing hits the spot like a nice plate of corned beef and cabbage. Here to bring us that very delight, please welcome Miss Katherine Hepburn. Kate?

[The bookcase on the far wall revolves to reveal Katherine lounging against it in a white shirt and gray slacks. She saunters up to the host.]

Katherine: Oh, Vincent, really, you make me laaaaaaugh.

Vincent: [smirks] Oh, do I?

Katherine: Where, may I ask, did you get that most fetching little crooooooww?

Vincent: Oh, this?

Katherine: I can fly a plane, you know.

Vincent: Oh, really?

Katherine: Also, I wear pants like a man would–does that frighten you, Vincent?

Vincent: You actually want responses to these questions?

Katherine: Sometimes I wear my aviator goggles over my sunglasses, did you know thaaat?

Vincent: That’s implied, yes, I meant to talk about that…

Katherine: Is it? My Uncle Covey says it’s no way for a lady to behave, but I say he’s just being an old poop–wouldn’t you agreeeeee?

Vincent: Okay. Okay. Oh, good. Okay. That’s great. Thanks for stopping by, thanks for stopping by. [nudges her toward stage left]

Katherine: [babbling] We used to have an awful crow problem when I was on the farm in Connecticut. I used to ride horses when I was two! [exits]

Vincent: AND EVIL MARCHES ON!! [thunderclap] My next guest hosts a show which brings unspeakable evil and darkness into America’s homes. Fridays on CBS–check your local listings. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Rod Serling.

[Serling appears with his cigarette and takes his place in the foreground. The “Twilight Zone” theme starts up and a spotlight lands on him.]

Serling: A man hosts a poorly conceived St. Patrick’s Day variety special… which seems to be turning into an unmitigated disaster. Is this television special doomed… or have we just set foot… in the Twilight Zone?

Vincent: [leaning over Rod’s shoulder] Yes, “The Twilight Zone.” Yeah. Still waitin’ for the call on that one. Got a hit show about creepy stuff, but you can’t find a role for old Vince Price, eh? Burgess Meredith. Sure. That guy just SCREAMS creepy. But no, not your good buddy Price!

Serling: [over theme] A man doesn’t realize that Burgess Meredith is ten times the actor that he ever was.

Vincent: WOW! WOW! Just like that! On my own show! [steps back] All right, you know, let’s wrap this up.

[horror music starts in]

Vincent: You’ve just witnessed first-hand the ancient evil of the Druids. You now stand powerless, cowering in fear, stripped in your very soul! There’s but one task left before you: HAVE A HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!

[The bagpipers reappear and start back in.]

Vincent: This is why we have rehearsal!

[His words are drowned out once again. SUPERIMPOSE title caption and PAN back as Vincent complains soundlessly under the bagpipe music.]

Announcer: This has been the Vincent Price St. Patrick’s Day Special. Thanks for watching!

[FADE to black over applause.]

Will Forte: What? Where?

Seth Meyers: Over there on the bench.

Will Forte: THAT guy? No way, he doesn’t look like me.

Seth Meyers: Doesn’t that look like him?

Andy Samberg: He looks like you.

Seth Meyers: I mean, you have to imagine him without the mustache, but he’s a dead ringer.

Seth Meyers: Good luck.

[Will peers at passersby.]

Will Forte: Boom. Right there. [points to left]

Seth Meyers: No, where?

Will Forte: Over there by the wall.

[CUT to Seth standing on the sidewalk and dressed exactly the same except for a top hat.]

Will Forte: Oh, my God, Andy, doesn’t that look like Seth?

Andy Samberg: It looks like you.

Seth Meyers: What? That guy’s got a big top hat, he doesn’t look anything like me.

Will Forte: Well, you gotta imagine him without the top hat. He’s your doppelganger, man.

[Seth covers up the “lookalike’s” top hat with two fingers.]

Seth Meyers: I guess, you know–yeah, I see it. All right, let’s do Andy.

Sportscenter

Dan Patrick…..Seth Meyer
Stuart Scott…..Finesse Mitchell
Barry Bonds…..Kenan Thompson
Greg Anderson…..Matt Dillon
Lou the Seal…..
Giants Player…..Bill Hader

[open on title effects: “SPORTSCENTER” with swirling lights]

[dissolve to news desk with Dan Patrick and Stuart Scott]

Dan Patrick: Good evening. [titles: “Dan Patrick,” “Stuart Scott”] I’m Dan Patrick.

Stuart Scott: And I’m Stuart Scott. [titles are removed] Boo-yah! [raises fist]

Dan Patrick: Coming up on “Sportscenter,” we’ll preview the NCA tournament.

Stuart Scott: And I’ll honor Kirby Puckett’s legacy with my own brand of slam poetry.

Dan Patrick: But first we turn to the Barry Bonds steroid scandal. A new book called “Game of Shadows” alleges that Bonds used several types of steroids in his quest for the home run title. Joining us live via satellite is the man himself, Barry Bonds.

[dissolve to Barry Bonds with very muscular arms, sitting in a locker room]

Barry Bonds: Hello.

Dan Patrick: Barry, how do you respond to the allegations in this book?

Barry Bonds: Man, I won’t even look at that book. [title: “Barry Bonds, 7-time MVP”] It’s full of lies. [title is removed] Besides, the book’s too tiny for my giant hands. [he holds up his giant hands and looks thoughtfully at them]

Dan Patrick: Barry, let’s take a look at some photos. This is you in 1998, before allegedly taking steroids. [dissolve to a photo of Barry Bonds with normally proportioned musculature] And this is you in 2004. [dissolve to a photo of Barry Bonds with massive arms and hands, shouting exultantly to the sky]

Barry Bonds: That’s completely natural. It’s called exercise.

Dan Patrick: That doesn’t explain why your head has doubled in size.

Barry Bonds: Well, I got two words for you: head exercises. Yeah, in the off-season, I’ve been thinking real hard. Every day I would do a crossword puzzle, and then I would eat it!

Stuart Scott: Hey, Barry. Stuart Scott here. Boo-yah. In your grand jury testimony, you admitted using an illegal topical cream. But you claimed you didn’t know it was steroids. Money, how can that be true?

Barry Bonds: Look, Stuart, when you’re at the gym and a stranger comes up to you and starts rubbing cream on your shoulders, you don’t ask questions. Haven’t you ever been to the gym? Damn!

Dan Patrick: We’re now joined by the man who allegedly supplied these steroids, Barry Bonds’ personal trainer, Greg Anderson.

[dissolve to Greg Anderson, a very muscular man, with title: “Greg Anderson, personal trainer”]

Greg Anderson: It’s great to be here, Dan. It’s a real dream come true. [title is removed]

Dan Patrick: Really? Because you’re being indicted for selling drugs.

Greg Anderson: Hey, either way, I made it onto “Sportscenter.”

Dan Patrick: Mr. Anderson, did you supply Barry Bonds with performance-enhancing drugs?

Greg Anderson: Absolutely not. The only substance that I ever gave Barry Bonds was an all-natural flax seed oil.

Dan Patrick: Flax seed oil?

Greg Anderson: Yeah, you know, flax seed oil. The kind you inject in your butt.

Dan Patrick: Mr. Anderson, it appears you are also taking steroids.

Greg Anderson: Absolutely not. This has always been my natural physique.

Dan Patrick: Okay, let’s take a look at a photo of you from five years ago. [dissolve to a shirtless photo of Greg, showing a very scrawny torso and arms]

Greg Anderson: I don’t see your point.

Dan Patrick: Look, doctors have come forward and testified that you injected Bonds with steroids.

Greg Anderson: Doctors? You know, I’m tired of these doctors and their accusations. Why don’t these so-called doctors focus on real problems like curing cancer, or back acne, or uncontrollable rage, or man boobs?!

Dan Patrick: Thank you, Mr. Anderson. Sadly, this scandal implicates the entire San Francisco Giants organization. Here to comment is the Giants’ mascot, Lou the Seal. [dissolve to Lou the Seal at Giants’ Stadium, with title: “Lou the Seal, S.F. Giants mascot”] Lou, were you aware of any steroid use. [title is removed]

Lou the Seal: [with a cartoony voice] Never, Dan! The whole Giants team gets my “seal” of approval.

Stuart Scott: Interesting you say that, Lou. Let’s take a look at a photo of you from five years ago. [dissolve to a photo of a baby seal] How do you explain that?

[dissolve to Lou the Seal bent forward while a teammate injects the contents of a needle into his posterior]

Lou the Seal: [groaning in a deeper voice] Oh, yeah, right there! That– [with cartoony voice] Oh!

[Lou and the player run away in opposite directions]

Dan Patrick: Lou the Seal, everyone. Barry Bonds, any final thoughts? Is your legacy tarnished?

Barry Bonds: No, it’s not, Dan. Because the fans understand. They know Barry Bonds comes to play. And after her plays, he has sex on a pile of money. With three supermodels. [he holds up his giant hand and shows four fingers] That’s three supermodels [he cannot bend his overgrown fingers] that are not his wife. [shouts] You know what?! I’m getting out of here! Man, get this damn mike off of me! [stands and leaves]

Stuart Scott: Strong, bewildering words from Barry Bonds. Hey, we’re gonna take a break. But when we return, I’m gonna put Kofi Annan on the Budweiser hot seat. Respect! [raises a fist] You’re watching “Sportscenter.”

How to Order Sushi Like a CEO

CEO…..Matt Dillon
Waitress…..Maya Rudolph

[FADE IN on a man in a business suit sitting at a sushi bar. Japanese Muzak plays in the background.]

CEO: Hi. I’m a CEO type at a large business firm, so you can imagine I eat a lot of sushi. Like boatloads, like beaucoup sushi. When you sit down with clients at a Japanese restaurant, they don’t often know what to order, except common things like edamame, and California rolls. Snoozeville. That’s why I paid someone to write this book.

[He holds up a red book with a picture of himself holding chopsticks and grinning.]

CEO: “How to Order Sushi Like a CEO.” With my book, you’ll learn how to wow them, leaving no doubt in their minds that you know sushi like Kristi Yamaguchi. Watch and learn.

[ENTER waitress in a kimono.]

Waitress: Are you ready to order?

CEO: [presses palms together and bows] Arigato. I think I’ll start with some toro. [to camera] That’s fatty tuna. Whatever I get, I’m gonna be using a lot of namida, or, as uninformed call it, wasabi.

Waitress: So, would you wrike another minute to decide?

CEO: What about your uni? Is the uni good tonight?

Waitress: So you would wrike sea urchin.

CEO: [to camera] Impressive. She knows what uni is.

[laughter]

CEO: You know what? I’ll have some uni sashimi, a couple of mirugai, and maybe some ama ebi.

Waitress: So you want sea urchin, giant cram, and sweet shreemp?

CEO: Sashimi.

Waitress: Yes, sashimi.

CEO: [presses palms together and bows] Arigato.

[The waitress gives a “screw-loose” expression to the camera and exits.]

CEO: There’s nothing I love more, except midmorning fellatio… than sitting with clients or associates, talking about figures, and eating fresh, authentic sushi.

[The waitress sets a plate of sushi on the bar.]

CEO: Ah. Look at that giant raw clam. [fumbles for bottle] I’m just gonna kiss this baby with a little shoyu sauce… or, as losers call it, soy sauce.

[He bends over the plate, lifts the clam to his mouth, and slurps it out of the shell. He gnashes his teeth and struggles to swallow it.]

CEO: Mmmmm.

[He wipes his lips with a napkin and keeps gritting his teeth. After several seconds, he finally manages to swallow the clam.]

CEO: TERRIFIC. [wipes mouth again] Real Japanese people eat the real deal. For instance… like this sweet shrimp. [picks up plate and chopsticks] It’s raw, and it’s still got its head.

[He stuffs the shrimp into his mouth and keeps his teeth clamped down. The tail sticks out as he starts looking ill.]

CEO: Mmmmm.

[He covers his mouth with the napkin and surreptitiously spits the shrimp into it.]

CEO: [wads up napkin and puts it on the bar] That is some phenomenal ama ebi. I’m all about the ama ebi. And I always like to top it off… [picks up plate] with… some uni. [picks up fish with chopsticks] Yep. I’m an uni-olic. I need to go to U-A meetings. Oh, yeah. This stuff is crazy good.

[He places the piece of fish in his mouth, bites down, then turns smoothly to his left and spits it out onto the floor. He takes a deep breath and wipes his mouth again.]

CEO: Phenomenal. So next time you go to a sushi bar… for a business dinner with associates, don’t act like a zero…

[He fumbles for his book and knocks a chopstick onto the floor.]

CEO: Get my book and order like a CEO. Konbanwa?

[Enter waitress.]

Waitress: Anything else, Meester Douche?

[laughter]

CEO: Apparently, that’s my last name in Japanese. [to waitress] Nope. Just the okanjo. [to camera] That means, “check.”

Frank: Why is EVERYONE givin’ me this THIRD DEGREE over this? I was improvising. Give me a freakin’ break! What am I, in Russia?

Woman: You know, Frank, maybe it would help you if you think of something that you find relaxing.

Frank: Got it, got it.

[Frank holds out his hands to give the man ten. The other man winces when Frank slaps his hands. Frank offers the same to the woman and director, but they back up.]

Man: Okay.

Woman: Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze… your–

Barry: I’m sorry, Frank, this isn’t gonna work. You’re fired.

Man: Oh, man.

Frank: [turns back around] Oh, and in case you’re lookin’ for me… you can find me on the Route 3 bus line. That’s how I’d be gettin’ around these days. So you enjoy yourselves.

Woman: [nervously] Thank you.

Barry: Okay, from the top, guys–

Frank: Oh, one MORE thing…

[FADE to black, then FADE IN on a woman lying in bed in a robe with a gel mask over her eyes and candles burning on her dresser. She presses a button on her portable stereo to play the relaxation CD.]

Woman: Feeeeeel how satisfying it is to breeeeeeeeathe in to your full capacity…

Frank: Calm DOWN already. What’s WRONG with you? LAY DOWN ON THE CARPET NOW!

[The woman in bed jerks, takes off her mask, and looks at the camera in disbelief. FADE to black over applause.]

[While Mike is talking, the “unicorn” bobs its head and pokes him in the arm with its horn.]

Dave: But maybe you live in an apartment, or a condominium. Maybe you don’t need THIS much unicorn.

[As they step over to another stall, the audience fawns and moans over a tiny, white baby pony also adorned with a horn.]

Mike: Boom!

Dave: A mini-unicorn.

Mike: Lookit this bag o’ donuts! It’s like I took a unicorn and teeny-sized it. Who would DO that?

05o: Antonio Banderas / Mary J. Blige

Anderson Cooper 360

Anderson Cooper…..Seth Meyers
Rep. Tom Tancredo…..Jason Sudeikis
Vincente Fox…..Antonio Banderas
Cynthia McKinney…..Kenan Thompson

[ open on CNN logo ]

Announcer: This is CNN.

[ dissolve to Anderson Cooper 360 logo ]

[ dissolve to Anderson Cooper ]

Anderson Cooper: Good evening, I’m Anderson Cooper! If you like your news rugged yet fragile, tough yet sensitive, and with icy blue eyes that say, “Yeah, this is gonna work out,” you’ve come to the right place. Immigration. It’s an issue that has our nation split. The President, John McCain and Bill Frist all unveiled plans this week. But the debate rages on. Joining us now is vocal immigration critic – Colorado congressman Tom Tancredo. Welcome, Congressman.

Rep. Tom Tancredo: Good to be here, Anderson.

Anderson Cooper: Congressman, you’ve referred to illegal aliens as a scourge, that threatens the very future of our nation. Pretty strong words.

Rep. Tom Tancredo: Anderson, America needs to start worrying about our jobs. Jobs that are going to illegal aliens Because if we don’t do something fast, one day we’re going to have to look our children in the eyes and say, “I’m sorry, Timmy, but you’re never, ever going to be able to wash dishes at a restaurant.” “And, Tom, Jr., you’re never going to grow up and hand out towels in a men’s room. ” “And, little Jessica, I know it’s your dream to stand at a highway exit and hand out bags of oranges – but it’s not going to happen. Those jobs aren’t available to Americans any more.”

Anderson Cooper: There are, of course, other voices in the immigration debate. Here to discuss the socio-economic values at the heart of the immigration issue – Mexican President vincente Fox.

vincente Fox: Hello, Onderson! [ audience screams their approval ]

Anderson Cooper: Mr. President, you believe that there’s a compromise to be struck on this issue, correct?

vincente Fox: Well, yes, Onderson, I understand that illegal aliens are a serious issue. But, let me put it to you like this: We are neighbors. The good kind. The one who say, “Hello, neighbor!” Remember? You scratch our backs, we buy your cars. Neighbors!

Anderson Cooper: Congressman Tancredo, do you actually think it’s realistic to shut down our borders with Mexico?

vincente Fox: Yes, I do, Anderson. It’s very simple. We’re just going to build a 700-mile long wall across the entire length of the Mexican border.

Anderson Cooper: 700 miles – that’s a very long wall. It sounds like it would be very expensive to build.

vincente Fox: Yeah, you would think so, Anderson, but it’s not. Now, I can’t go into specifics, but, suffice it to say, we’ve found a labor force willing to get the whole job done at about a fifth of the cost. We’re very excited about it. They don’t need healthy insurance, and you just pick them up in the parking lot of the Home Depot.

Anderson Cooper: I see. President Fox?

vincente Fox: Why do you talk about Mexican immigration problem? What about the American immigration problem to my country?

Anderson Cooper: To your country? What do you mean?

vincente Fox: Spring Break? Thousands of young Americans stream into my country every Spring, to places like Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, Tijuana. You suck up our natural resources – yeah, such as tequila and rum punch with free refills if you are wearing the proper party pass. And then, as if to tease us, your women flash their breasts – only to cover them up and take them back to America?! You have the nerve to ask us why we are coming into your country? It is very simple, my friend – we are following the breasts!

Anderson Cooper: A pointed image. Well, immigration wasn’t the only border issue in Washington, D.C. this week. Georgia representative Cynthia McKinney had an altercation with a Capitol Hill police officer, who refused her entry into the Capitol Building, when she refused to show proper identification. Joining us now – Congresswoman McKinney.

Cynthia McKinney: Yeah, thank you, Anderson.

Anderson Cooper: So, what exactly happened, Congresswoman?

Cynthia McKinney: Anderson, this was just a big to-do about a hairdo.

Anderson Cooper: Well, let me apologize in advance for this not rhyming – but I think it was a big to-do about you slapping a police officer in the face.

Cynthia McKinney: Anderson, let me ask you this: what black woman in her right mind would want to go into the Capitol if she didn’t have to? I mean, we’re talking about a building full of rich, old, white men, Anderson. It wasn’t like I was trying to get into a Peabo Bryson concert!

Anderson Cooper: But you do admit you weren’t wearing your Congressional pin. There are 535 members of Congress. You can’t expect a police officer to remember all of you.

Cynthia McKinney: Here’s the deal, Anderson Cooper: There’s 535 members of Congress – only 84 of them are black; and only 14 of them are women; and only one of them looks this crazy when she goes walking down the steps. Remember my face!!

Anderson Cooper: So you do admit to slapping the police officer?

Cynthia McKinney: What do you want, Anderson? I apologized already. Do not make me feel like a Mexican trying to cross the border when I go to work! You put a police officer in my way, and I will slap him! If you put that police officer, and he has a dog, I will slap that dog!! I am going to work, Momma’s gettin’ paid!

Anderson Cooper: Interesting take.

Cynthia McKinney: Don’t you sass me, Anderson Cooper! I will slap that Kiehl’s moisturizer off your face, Anderson Cooper!

Anderson Cooper: Well, that’s all the time we have. Coming up next: a very special Lou Dobbs Report, where Lou goes to an Indian restaurant, strips to his waist and offers to take on any waiter who “dares to try it.” And, “Live, from New York, it’s Saturday Niiiiiiiiiiiighttttt!!!”
