Apparently yesterday was Quote Leo McGarry Day, and I missed it. But really, is it ever NOT a good day to quote Leo McGarry?

Margaret: Can I - can I just say something for the future?
Leo: Yeah.
Margaret: I can sign the President's name. I have his signature down pretty good.
Leo: You can sign the President's name?
Margaret: Yeah.
Leo: On a document removing him from power and handing it to someone else?
Margaret: Yeah. Or... do you think the White House Counsel would say that was a bad idea?
Leo: I think the White House Counsel would say it was a coup d'etat!
Margaret: Well. I'd probably end up doing some time for that.
Leo: I would think. And what the hell were you doing practicing the President's signature?
Margaret: It was just for fun.
Leo: We've got separation of powers, checks and balances, and Margaret, vetoing things and sending them back to the Hill.

Ooooh you know you've seen an episode of something too many times when you can read a transcript and know the EXACT INFLECTION of each line. :D That being said, that quote made me miss West Wing. It's a family tradition to watch season two and three of West Wing in the days leading up to Christmas. I have The Best Family. Gonna start on that now. XD Thanks for the reminder.

That sounds like an awesome tradition!
