"A handful of kidnappings and a few armed insurrections doesn't mean we're losing control. It just means that we never really had control."

Young Woman

Mandy Wright,
Property Inspector
"The insurgents are just jealous that we're part of an awesome coalition and they aren't."

Black Man

Karl Wright,
Mathematician
"Bush did say we'd be welcomed with an open display of small arms."

Young Man

Eric Baker,
Lyricist
"They're calling their latest operation 'Resolute Sword?' Shit. We have to change our band's name again."

Asian Man

Scott Waller,
Waiter
"I hope for the sake of Iraq's children this doesn't lead to a civil war. Then those kids would have to watch boring documentaries about it in school for the next 200 years."

Old Woman

Dorothy Nelson,
CPA
"Well, everyone gets antsy around tax time."
