...regarding offensive action

north of the 22nd parallel.

Bottom line, Henry...

...is we bomb them

or we don't, isn't it?

I wouldn't put it exactly in that...

I have something to say.

Go on, Arlene.

War is not healthy for children

and other living things.

Henry, that's the voice

of the youth of America.

Yeah, well, first of all...

...it wasn't a war

that this administration started.

Henry, Jesus, let's not start that.

Isn't there somebody

waiting out there for me?

The Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Let's go!

Welcome on board.

Hey, good to have you.

Mr. Haldeman, it's your wife.

Have a great day. Congratulations!

I don't have time to talk to her.

- You're starting another war!

- I don't have time to talk to her.

If you have a problem with Vietnam,

talk to Johnson.

- He's dead!

- Yeah, thank God.

Do we bomb or not bomb?

Let's get this done with today.

There they are.

I'm sorry!

We're coming!

Because of your thoughtlessness...

...we have missed the field trip lunch

at McDonald's...

...which the students on

the other buses are now enjoying.

We will return to school...

...for a cold lunch...

...in the cafeteria.

But we really did meet the President.

I swear to God.

And he did ask us to be

the official White House dog walkers.

Every lie is another brick...

...in the pathway to hell.

You're so stupid.

I hate you.

Guess what happened to us today!

What's the matter?

Your brother got his letter.

I got drafted.

Now you can get my room,

like you always wanted.

Betsy, are you okay?

I'm fine.

I was wondering what we'll do with

his crappy bed, dresser and nightstand.

You think the President meant it

when he said we could walk Checkers?

You think the President meant it

when he said we could walk Checkers?

He's the President, Betsy.

He always means what he says.

We should bake him cookies.

Let's make Hello Dollies.

It's my mom's special recipe.

All's my mom says is that my dad died

in a car crash before I was born.

You've never seen

a single picture or anything?

She said it upset her too much,

so she threw everything away.

No offense, but it's obvious

you're being lied to.

The whole story is way too convenient.

Is the butter melting?

Are you making those cookies?

Yes, but you can't have any.

They're for the President.

Don't forget the walnuts, man.

So you really think

that my father could be alive?

Alive and famous.

It makes perfect sense.

He was probably married...

...and your mom had to keep it

a secret to protect his reputation.

How come there's little

green leaves in the walnuts?

Larry says they're just

from the walnut tree.

Anyway...

...your dad could be watching you now,
