Everybody Hates Promises (2006)

Vincent Martella: Greg Wuliger

Quotes 

• Chris : Hey, Greg!

  Greg Wuliger : "Hey, Greg"? Did you see the school paper?

  Chris : We have a school paper?

  Narrator : Bush wasn't the first president who didn't read the paper.

  [Greg hands Chris a copy of the school paper] 

  Chris : What did I lie about?

  Greg Wuliger : Apparently, you lied about everything.

  Narrator : The last true thing I said was, "My name is Chris and I'm running for president."

  Chris : I didn't mean any of that stuff. Caruso stole my speech. He's no better than me.

  Greg Wuliger : Yeah, but he didn't win. Now you're stuck with all those campaign promises.

  Chris : All presidents lie to get elected. What do they do?

  Greg Wuliger : Distraction. They just force the press to cover other more benign issues until the public loses interest in the story.

  Chris : Maybe we should ignore the problem till it goes away.

  Greg Wuliger : I was thinking more like setting the cafeteria on fire, but we'll try it your way first.

• Lisa : [to Chris]  I think you're a fraud. I think you were lying then, and I think you're lying now.

  Greg Wuliger : This is totally unfair because you've got a personal ax to grind.

  Lisa : What ax?

  Greg Wuliger : Your boyfriend Ping is running with Caruso and he lost. You just want revenge.

  Lisa : Ping is not my boyfriend.

  Greg Wuliger : He's not?

  Lisa : No!

  Greg Wuliger : Say, what are you doing after school?

  Chris : Greg!

  Greg Wuliger : Sorry!

• Chris : [to Greg]  Did you know I didn't have any power?

  Greg Wuliger : What are you talking about you got no power? You're the president.

  Chris : I'm a figurehead, like Mayor McCheese. Like Colonel Sanders. Like Dr. Detroit.

• Greg Wuliger : [to Chris]  I thought being president would help make us more popular and help solve some problems. All it did was cause more problems and make more people hate you.

• Chris : [while reading the school paper]  "Heist By Class President Foiled as Impeachment Looms"?

  Greg Wuliger : [to Lisa]  This is outrageous!

  Chris : How are you going to call me a liar? You're the liar. I'm not guilty. They found the real guys five minutes later.

  Lisa : I had a deadline. School was out in an hour and a half.

  Chris : You couldn't wait 30 minutes to find out whether your story was true or not?

  Lisa : You're the class president. This is the news. We wouldn't have printed it if you hadn't exhibited a pattern of behavior.

  Chris : What pattern?

  Narrator : Maybe I was guilty.

  Greg Wuliger : [to Lisa]  You're supposed to be a journalist. You can't in good conscience let this stand without printing a retraction. He's gonna lose his office.

  Lisa : I promise I'll print a retraction.

  [walks off] 

  Greg Wuliger : [to Chris]  What are you gonna do?

  Chris : I don't know. What can I do?

• Greg Wuliger : [to Chris]  Well, we had a good run and we made history.

  Chris : Yeah, I know. I was the first class president ever to be impeached.

  Greg Wuliger : I wonder who's going to replace you.

  Chris : Probably Dipaolo.

  Greg Wuliger : Great. We're gonna have an idiot for president.

  Narrator : Who knew Greg could see into the future?
