"What the hell are you doing, now we're both in the hole!"

One of the best speaches from The West Wing. But this one's by good ol' Leo McGary. Tried to use it on a friend once and seriously stuffed it up. Hopefully it works for others.

RIP West Wing.

Leo was my favorite character from the very first episode I saw. Different aspects of him remind me of several different people I know and admire, and that's the mark of a good character -- someone who you feel like you know.

I like how in a later episode Leo is in trouble and Josh helps him out, Leo asks why and Josh makes reference to this moment when a friend is in a hole.

Excellent  sequence.

This scene reminds me of "jesus and mosses playing golf" scene on the newsroom :D

I quoted that to my friend and she responded with "I"ll be that friend! I'll bring oreos!" I think I've chosen my friends wisely.

15 people are clearly still stuck in the hole!

My favorite WW scene, never fails to make me cry.

15 people don't know the way out.

Leo was one of my favorite characters in any movie or TV show ever. But this scene...man...this scene...

"....and a fear of rectangles" - That line is so funny...yet it dives head first into serious territory....THAT is what I love about the west wing.

The writing was great but it was all about timing. As soon as Leo accomplished his goal the music chimed in. His work was done :)
