Dick Cheney: Well sure I do Karl, I hav…

Karl Rove: Can you get them to sabotage a well, I mean a deep one, one that can’t be fixed for months and months, one that we can call…uhh, Obama’s Katrina!

Dick Cheney: Well, I don’t know Karl, that seems a bit craz…

Karl Rove: DON”T YOU SAY THAT! DON”T YOU DARE CALL ME CRAZY! I’LL KILL YOU AND THEN EAT YOUR INTESTINES RAW! I’M NOT CRAZY DAMN YOU!

Dick Cheney: Uhh…ahh…ok Karl, I’ll see what I can do, ok?

Karl Rove: Thanks Dick, I knew that I could count on you…
