Thanks, Classicman. :thup:

@Shawnee, it's quite obvious that Charlie was no angel - apparently his line for why he hired VERY buxom and beautiful women was:

"You can teach typing, but you can't teach tits"

Smart guy though - and he sat on just the right committee's. Julia Roberts was great as the ultra rich widow with the passion for Pakistan & Afghanistan.

The CIA guy in his boss's office -- and bugging Charlie's office - had me rolling.

Charlie incredously asking the CIA station chief in Pakistan:
"The Russians have invaded. Those people are being slaughtered, and you tell me you don't want to upset things?" "I don't even know what that means."

And best of all:
The Texas bellydancer is VERY provocatively belly dancing, and the Egyptian minister they have to butter up, asks:

"What religion is she?"

Just as the dancer drops into the most sensous splits imaginable, Charlie answers:

< Censored >

Well, you need to see Charlie Wilson's War now, don't you?

And the aforementioned staffer acknowledges that this is true! She was an attorney on staff. She talked about what a great opportunity she was given...won't go into details to protect privacy, but it was pretty cool to hear her talk about those times. She's beautiful AND smart.
