The life of Brian.....Scene 9 Modified for the modern liberal:
REG: Yeah. All right, Stan. Don't labour the point. And what have they ever given us in return?!
XERXES: They won the cold war?
REG: What?
XERXES: The cold war.
REG: Oh. Yeah, yeah. They did give us that. Uh, that's true. Yeah.
REG: Yeah. All right, Stan. Don't labour the point. And what have they ever given us in return?!
XERXES: They won the cold war?
REG: What?
XERXES: The cold war.
REG: Oh. Yeah, yeah. They did give us that. Uh, that's true. Yeah.
COMMANDO #3: And economic growth in the 90s.
LORETTA: Oh, yeah, economic recovery, Reg. Remember what the city used to be like?
REG: Yeah. All right. I'll grant you the end of the cold war and the economic recovery of the 90s are two things that the Republicans have done.
MATTHIAS: And the end to partial birth abortion.
REG: Well, yeah. Obviously the end to partial birth abortion. I mean, the killing of near term babies goes without saying, doesn't it? But apart from the end of the cold war, the economic boom of the 90s, and the end to partial birth abortions--
COMMANDO: the war on terror.
XERXES: liberation of iraq.
COMMANDOS: Huh? Heh? Huh...
COMMANDO #2: Education.
COMMANDOS: Ohh...
REG: Yeah, yeah. All right. Fair enough.
COMMANDO #1: And the tax relief.
COMMANDOS: Oh, yes. Yeah...
FRANCIS: Yeah. Yeah, that's something we'd really miss, Reg, if the Republicans left. Huh.
COMMANDO: An abrupt end to terrorism on US soil.
LORETTA: And it's safe to walk in the streets at night now, Reg.
FRANCIS: Yeah, they certainly know how to keep order. Let's face it. They're the only ones who could in a place like this.
COMMANDOS: Hehh, heh. Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.
REG: All right, but apart from the the end of the cold war, the economic boom of the 90s, an end to the murder of near term babies, the war on terror, the liberation of Iraq, education, an abrupt end to terrorism on us soil, economic recovery after september 11th, and the do not call list, what have the Republicans ever done for us?
