44. Apt. But not really.
Well you see there is this thing called friction which causes heat and if enough heat builds up and the conditions are right you get fire, it's kind of like trade agreements everbody gets burned.

Actually, I'll go with your metaphor. It's like trying to start a fire by rubbing two sticks together, and then eventually it doesn't matter because you freeze to death.

What is your plan sir? Your plan! Keep in mind it involves waiting at least four more years for Bush* to get out of office, and then possibly not being able to do anything even then because you still might not like the person we nominate then. Keep in mind also that you have a limited number of years to live.
