Michael O'Neill: Secret Service Agent Ron Butterfield

Quotes 

• Secret Service Agent Ron Butterfield : It wasn't your fault.

  Toby Ziegler : Ron...

  Secret Service Agent Ron Butterfield : It wasn't your fault. It wasn't Gina's fault. It wasn't Charlie's fault. It wasn't anybody's fault, Toby. It was an act of madmen. You think a tent was gonna stop 'em? We got the President in the car. We got Zoey in the car. And at 150 yards and five stories up the shooters were down 9.2 seconds after the first shot was fired. I would never let you not let me protect the President. You tell us you don't like something; we figure out something else. It was an act of madmen. Anyway, the Secret Service doesn't comment on procedure.
