Jerry Falwell: Pat, I did it! I joined the army! I'm serving my country!

Pat Buchanan: The army? The army is for socialists! I joined Blackwater Security!

Jerry: What?! You're a mercenary?!

Pat: As a commando entrepreneur in Iraq, I earn an average of $1,000 per day! I'm a hero of American capitalism! And I can shoot brown people without fear of court martial-- GET DOWN!

[Pat throws a grenade at an unseen target. It explodes,]

Jerry: Pat! Only official Coalition Forces in Iraq can be armed with grenades! You private contractors can't carry them!

Pat: The first rule of private armies is: There are no rules!

Jerry: No wonder they want to hang you from a bridge!
