A conversation when W is King
W: You don't vote for kings.
WOMAN: Well, 'ow did you become king then?
W: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, W, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king!
DENNIS: Listen -- strange women lying in ponds distributing swords
is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power
derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical
aquatic ceremony.
W: Be quiet!
DENNIS: Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power
just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
W: Shut up!
DENNIS: I mean, if I went around sayin' I was an empereror just
because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me they'd
put me away!
W: Shut up! Will you shut up!
DENNIS: Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system.
W: Shut up!
DENNIS: Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system!
HELP! HELP! I'm being repressed!
W: Bloody peasant!

3. Bush is Sir Robin - ran away from war (Vietnam)
Bravely ran away, away. When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled...
