"At least democracy's flowering over there. They could be here, where it's nearly fucking dead."

Young Woman

Jessica Burrell,
Salesperson
"Good. Maybe it'll teach those weaklings some discipline."

Asian Man

Edward Enriquez,
Sales Manager
"As an employer of several U.S. reservists, I have one question: Who's gonna sell these motorboats?"

Old Woman

Maude Wilkenson,
Artist
"I can't imagine why it's taking them so long to accomplish a simple little matter like stabilizing that particular geopolitical region."

Young Man

Sammy Marsh,
Security Guard
"Boy, the Iraqis better develop a fun pop culture with cute cartoon animals and grown women in schoolgirl uniforms, or this will be a complete waste."

Black Man

Martin Stearns,
Systems Analyst
"If our soldiers must be involved in a lengthy occupation, at least it's in a place without any dangerous weapons of mass destruction lying around."
