Came here to watch some Joe Quincy clips after hearing of the passing of Matthew Perry. Sad news, he was so great. RIP

I know this is post Aaron Sorkin, but that’s a line in “Charlie Wilson’s War”

I guess they didn’t save the sets, or failed to rewatch the earlier episodes, but the Steam Pipe Trunk Distribution Venue here is significantly different from when Ainsley was there.

CJ was certainly the Queen of the one liners.

agriculture is this country's biggest industry and also one of the most automated...the visual of a farmer and his family growing a few acres is a relic reserved for the movies and corn subsidies only benefit the corporations...ya know, like most of our laws.

Kiersten Warren is wonderful here, love the way she says "Anyway."

I always love it when he calls her ClaudiaJean. I wish I could find out where the clips are when they send him to see…a very old senator? …or very old Supreme Court judge he clerked for? He’s wonderful in those exchanges.

So much flirting!

he makes a good point, but there would be a point where farmers would give up or go bankrupt and then where would the cheap food come from? But still good writing, good acting, another example of why this show was so great.

The problem I have with that exchange is the appearance of concern over the livelihood of farmers. It's not. The agricultural subsidies programs pushed by Democrats is about decreasing market supply to raise prices, but it isn't so that farmers can sell their crop for a living wage. It's to raise the living wage of the consumers to a point that certain income brackets are no longer viable on their own. Then they step in with social assistance programs (eg food stamps, Bridge card, Welfare, etc) to support the indigent like they're the good guys, when they create (or more accurately, exacerbate) the problem in the first place. Basically, they're buying votes with tax dollars. Don't get me wrong, I don't think the other side's solution is much better, for just the reason you state. Way more supply than the market demand can sustain for perishable commodities, which causes some suppliers to eventually go bankrupt, decreasing the supply. It would be one thing if they did something with the excess supply... but you don't see many food programs coming from this side, either. They show no concerns of helping the truly indigent, outside of tax-deductible charitable donations to groups that may or may not actually be in the business of providing charity work. IMO, the best solution would be a partial subsidies program. Producers would receive partial subsidies on a per unit rate (rather than a value margin basis, meaning those producing commodities with less market value aren't penalized), so that their profit loss from the market price wouldn't bankrupt them. But, you would also see the drop in price across the market, easing the cost on consumers so that less would need assistance for food. Done right, it would benefit the greatest number of people on both sides. The only problem would be the actual grocers... that's the only group that I can't figure out how to work into the equation. Which would really only matter if I were in a position to, you know, propose such a thing. Small detail.

The point is that they both make good points. Perhaps the solution is to make sure that people have enough money so that they can pay farmers a fair price for their produce.

Bernard, I was getting ready to respond to the first two comments when I paused to read yours. You beat me to it But I'm no expert and I thought that isn't it nice that that we have this democratically elected government that was given the job of seeing that the markets don't sway too far in favor of either the producer of the consumer. You'd have to be an expert in the field of agriculture to know how to maintain a fair and equitable balance. Who Knew that government would be so hard?

Correct. The stairs were outside the office and the arrangement of the pipes are different. It’s not the same office. Comparing screen shots of Ainsley’s office and Joe’s office show completely different rooms. This is a discrepancy in continuity.

Stu Winkle's.

Is there an alley next to the Whitehouse? I only ask because at at 2:00 they say that the window is looking into an alley. I would have thought that the Whitehouse layout was more fancy than that.

Is that the same room they gave Ainsley Hayes and when she complained it was the steampipe trunk distribution venue, Leo told her it was her office IN THE WHITE HOUSE?
