think about those questions, would you?

I'm watching "The Midterms" and i always always forget it's this episode where Jed nails the talk radio show host.

Bartlet: Forgive me, Dr. Jacobs. Are you an M.D

It's entirely possible that *that* is my all-time favorite West Wing scene. IIRC, I actually jumped out of my chair and *screamed* at the "Ignorant Tightass Club" bit. (It helps that at the time I worked for an organization constantly targeted by Dr. Laura...)

It's one of my all-time favorites - in the top five, definitely.

Martin Sheen is awesome there. Well, as ever. Oh, show.

[musesfool]

Sigh. Yes.

I don't care about the MS or that he's fictional, I want Jed Bartlet for President. ♥

[musesfool]

Me, too.

I could never get over the fact that it was lifted straight from an email forward. I'll already heard the entire thing word-for-for so many times by the time it made it into the episode that it really yanked me out of the narrative.

[musesfool]

Was it really? Oh, Aaron...

Interesting. Thanks for the link. I don't think I've actually read an email forward since, like, 1996, so I'd never seen it.

I've never seen The West Wing...but this little snippet of conversation makes me wish I had!

I highly recommend the first two seasons.
