If I like the story and it's well written, and it's a character I want to play and they'll pay me, then I decide to do it. ↗

Here is the operating motto of the Obama White House: 'So let it be written, so let it be done!' Like Yul Brynner's Pharaoh Ramses character in Cecil B. DeMille's 'The Ten Commandments,' the demander in chief stands with arms akimbo issuing daily edicts to his constitution-subverting minions. ↗

— Michelle Malkin
