The West Wing, Season Four

McNally:
Leo. Yeoman Fitzwallace.

Admiral Fitzwallace:
Dr. McNally.

McNally:
Let's attack.

Admiral Fitzwallace:
Who?

McNally:
Qumar. Let's recommend to the President that we attack.

Leo:
Why?

McNally:
'Cause I've had it.

Admiral Fitzwallace:
I don't think the UN is going to let us do it for that reason.

McNally:
That's 'cause you're a sissy. You want peace in the Middle East? Give me a pair of third generation ICBM's and a compass. You get B-2 Spirit stealth bombers over Qumar right now, as if the Qumari Air Defense Sytem requires stealth capability. Just fly in at night, and while you're at it, could you order the USS Louisiana to fire off a D5 Trident just to see if it works? What's the worst that could happen?

Admiral Fitzwallace:
[to Leo, bewildered] Is she talking to me?

McNally:
Yes!

Admiral Fitzwallace:
Well, 98% of all living organisms within a seven mile radius would die instantly in a torrent of fire.

McNally:
Admiral Sissymary... We're running out of options on the menu.
