Lea Thompson and Jennifer Grey...nice!

Colonel Ernesto Bella: It would seem necessary to win the support of the people. As our opponents used to say in Vietnam: "Win their hearts and minds."
General Bratchenko: And they lost, Ernesto... Morale is crucial right now. Keep the men in the secured areas. You'll see how they forget about these "Wolverines."
Colonel Ernesto Bella: [Toni blows up a nearby "Soviet-American Friendship Center."] You were saying, Comrade?
General Bratchenko: Oh, shut up!

Nice little end of Cold War movie. (The Cold War is over, isn't it?)

Watch out Chris. The Republicans need a good little war to keep the Dems' arses in 2008.
