The West Wing1999

Claudia Jean 'C.J.' Cregg:
Danny Concannon is doing a story alleging we assassinated Abdul Sheriff.

Glenallen Walken:
How are his sources?

Leo McGarry:
He's got it.

Claudia Jean 'C.J.' Cregg:
He's looking for a comment

Glenallen Walken:
I suppose throwing him in leg irons and locking him in the basement of the Capitol wouldn't do any good.

Leo McGarry:
We shouldn't comment, sir, not while Zoey Bartlett is missing.

Steve Atwood:
No, we need to get out in front of it, release it before it breaks in the Post.

Toby Ziegler:
Release what? That we violated The Neutrality Act to covertly assassinate an official of a friendly government?

Steve Atwood:
He must not have been too friendly if you decided to shoot him.

Will Bailey:
Sir, acknowledging the assassination destroys a century's worth of progress towards international law.

Steve Atwood:
You guys didn't think about that before you did it?

Josh Lyman:
It wasn't supposed to become public.

Steve Atwood:
Yeah well you tried that before. How did it work out on MS?
