I'll offer you the same offer I made to yer comrade, Dickey... Get on an airplane to Washington, D.C. and I'll see to it that you meet the mother I just described... And guess what... There are millions of mothers just like her...

Yeah, show me your math...

No disrespect intended but you. like Dickey, are not living in the ***real*** (yeah, as in rality) world...
