Quotes 

• Mandy Hampton : Yes, so, Mr. President, if you could further see clear to not answer that question like an economics professor with a big ole stick up his butt, that would be good too.

  President Josiah Bartlet : I *am* an economics professor with a big ole stick up my butt, but I'll do my best for you there, Mandy.

• Leo McGarry : Andrew Jackson, in the main foyer of his White House had a big block of cheese.

  Toby Ziegler : Huh.

  Leo McGarry : I am making a mental list of those who are snickering, and even as I speak I am preparing appropriate retribution. The block of cheese was huge - over two tons. And it was there for any and all who might be hungry.

  Toby Ziegler : Leo, wouldn't this time be better spent plotting a war against a country that can't possibly defend itself against us?

  Leo McGarry : We can do that later, Toby. Right now I'm talking about President Andrew Jackson.

  Sam Seaborn : Actually, right now, you're talking about a big block of cheese.

  Leo McGarry : And Sam goes on my list!

  Sam Seaborn : And what about Toby?

  Leo McGarry : I'm unpredictable. Jackson wanted the White House to belong to the people, so from time to time, he opened his doors to those who wished an audience.

  Mandy Hampton : And then he locked the doors behind them and made them eat two tons of cheese.
