Bloom County: Milo vs Opus (Bloom County Meadow, candidates on stools before podiums. Sign which reads "toDay: Practice Debate") Milo: I understand that my opponent supports the 55 M.P.H. speed limit. Opus: Saves 500 lives a year! I fully support saving lives. Milo: Then he'd support the saving of another 10,000 lives by lowering the limit to 40 M.P.H. Opus: 40? Milo: Or to 20 ... Saving 30,000 lives a year. Opus: Gee... 20 is pretty slow. Milo: Apparently my opponent would send 30,000 men, women, and children to fiery, mangled deaths just so he can zoom along to his manicurist at 55. Opus: I DON'T HAVE A MANICURIST! Milo: He probably doesn't. Most mass murderers don't. Hitler didn't. Opus: stop it! Stop It! STOP IT! (bangs on podium) Milo: Rebuttal? Opus: (frazzled) What? Milo: Give your rebuttal. Opus: Uh... Bush is a wimp. (Opus' washroom, opus in tub in technicolor rub-a-dub hair shield) Narrator: The candidate retires to the tub...comforted in the knowledge that even "The Gipper" never really sounded totally sober without note cards, either.
