"It's a credit to Aaron Sorkin and John Wells that West Wing is a world where speechwriting is a sexy noble job, which is never how it was in the real White House.
One of the premises of the West Wing, which I think is a wonderful thing and a rare thing, is that intelligence is nobility. That's one of the reasons why there are these passionate debates over sentence construction. It's not a show where people are fighting over the gun; they're usually fighting over the preposition."
