Mark: We're on in three minutes. Last chance to powder your nose. Chase: Excuse me? You know I don't use powder! Mark: It's just an expression, Chase. Engineer: Okay, boys, we're rolling - go at it! Mark: Chase, now that we know needle exchange programs work, Clinton's refusal to lift the ban on funding is a disgrace! Chase: Wrong as usual, Mark! What's disgraceful is Clinton's encouraging states to fund programs on their own! Talk about sending the wrong message! Mark: What message is that, Chase? That he cares whether people get AIDS? Clinton was scared you guys would tag him with being soft on drugs! Chase: Which he is! He's pandering to all the liberal ex-pot-heads on his staff! Mark: No way! Clinton wimped out! He bowed to political pressure! Again! Chase: Right! It's what I've been saying! The guy's spineless! I totall agree! Engineer: Take two! Mark: We've got to stop meeting in the middle like this. Chase: It's Clinton - he keeps bringing us together.
