Mute does not need to be talking while steering.


Hence the Conan talking while driving message.

You know, Mike, when I get to be President I'll be guiding the country.

Captain: Um, OK, and my name is Skipper.

Mitt: I'll guide this country into prosperity the likes of which have never been seen before, Mike.

Captain: It's Skipper.

Mitt: Yeah, whatever, Mike. Hey, we don't appear to be moving! What's the deal?

Captain: You've run the ship aground. The name is Skipper, and you'll probably run the country into the ground as well. Now get away from that wheel, and get off my ship! Your photo op is over. I should have never agreed to this, but after I lost my job of 15 years after Bain bought the company I worked for and laid everyone off, I've found myself doing lots of things I wouldn't have done before.

Mitt: Well, I made millions off that deal, Mike. Thanks, and don't forget to vote!
