Charlie Wilson's War Page #2
That said, I love your idea.
- Crys, I'll call you this week.
- Okay.
All right.
Stacey, Kelly, nice to meet you both.
Are you Nevada residents?
- Yeah.
- Well, don't forget to vote.
Bye. We love you!
We love you!
Oh, it helps not to know me.
Oh! That is for you.
- Thank you, sir.
- Thank you.
- Bye!
- Bye, Charlie.
I love Las Vegas!
All right, what else?
That Dairy Queen guy, Larry Liddle,
- is sitting in your office.
- Hey.
Yeah, I told him he could come in.
He wants to talk to you about a creche.
What, a nativity scene with baby Jesus?
Yeah, it's on public property,
and the city's making him move it.
Sh*t. I thought he was just coming in
- to get his picture took, you know?
- Congressman.
- Yeah?
- You're exactly who I need to speak to.
- You have a moment?
- Sure.
- Tip asked me to talk to you.
- Okay.
He wanted me to talk to
you about John Murtha.
- Go ahead.
- The prosecutor's gonna go after him.
Well, they ain't gonna find anything.
John Murtha's as clean as
my mother's kitchen floor.
Yeah, but Tip would like to put you
on the Ethics Committee just the same.
- You're kidding.
- No.
Well, Jesus, Donnelly,
everyone in town knows
I'm on the other side of that issue.
- Ethics?
- Yeah!
Well, the Speaker would like to
put you on the committee anyway.
Okay. Well, if anyone asks what the
hell I'm doing on the Ethics Committee,
we'll just tell them I like
chasing women and drinking whiskey
and the Speaker felt we
were underrepresented.
- One man, one vote.
- Exactly.
Tip's gonna want to return the favor.
- Tuesday, right?
- That is Tuesday, yes.
So if anything comes
up that you'd like me
to speak with him about, please...
Yes.
Yes!
I'd like to be on the Board of
Directors of the Kennedy Center.
- Charlie.
- I'm sorry?
Turns out Congress appoints the Board
of Directors of the Kennedy Center.
It's a great place to take a date,
and I can never afford the tickets.
- Consider it done.
- Excellent.
Go vote.
Another few minutes.
Let's see what's on the wires.
Why can't you wait for
newspapers like everybody else?
'Cause I think it's productive
to know today's news today.
And it makes me one day smarter
than you, which I enjoy as well.
I know you do.
You don't think that's a little crazy?
Pan Am and Eastern are
lowering their fares.
'Cause of Braniff.
What's a little crazy?
Joining the Board of the Kennedy Center
so you can get free tickets
- Hold on.
- What?
AP story out of Kabul.
Uzbekistan?
Afghanistan.
Russia, Afghanistan, Pakistan,
Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia,
Jordan, Israel, Egypt.
