Most of them are almost throw-away lines, but there are several issues that we will visit again.<br /><br />Marcus's line about being President longer than Bartlet always bothers me. Shows him to be an egotistical ass who thinks he can buy anything with his money. Problem is, he's probably right.ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-68672157793056104892014-06-27T18:36:52.213-04:002014-06-27T18:36:52.213-04:00I think Bartlet has one of those personality types...I think Bartlet has one of those personality types that can't help it - that keep going too far until they crash. They probably all do actually! Though he seemed keen enough on sleeping in during the previous episode!<br /><br />I avoided talking too much about why Donna's pushing Josh at Joey because it comes up in season 2 - I didn't want to spoil anything so figured it was safest not to say too much, but I can't really speculate cause it would be informed by having watched season 2.Juliettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00203399623895589924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-61706043320780319412014-06-27T16:29:47.065-04:002014-06-27T16:29:47.065-04:00Why is Donna pushing Josh at Joey Lucas?

But what is she doing sleeping with that jerk played by John deLancie? I have serious doubts about her taste in men. <br /><br />Gotta love an episode featuring an intellectual moment with David Hasselhof playing himself. :)<br /><br />Bartlet is pushing himself way too hard. Doesn't Air Force One have a bedroom for the president? Why won't someone make sure he sleeps?<br />Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
