Photoset reblogged from Fuck Yeah West Wing
Just a few days after Spencer’s death, on what would have been the Emmy-winning actor’s 59th birthday, the whole West Wing crew and cast gathered at Spencer’s empty house for an impromptu memorial. “It was very helpful for us to talk about him and we even had a birthday cake for John.”- Kristin Chenoweth

That would have been four days later, according to IMDb; he died on Dec. 16, 2005 and his birthday was Dec. 20.
I was touched to see all the secondary characters in the screenshots from “Requiem” above. I know they’re actors who naturally want to work, and that Wells and Co. didn’t have to bring back Ainsley, for example. I choose to interpret it as John Spencer’s fellow actors paying tribute to him as much as “we want your character to appear at Leo’s funeral.”

I love the follow-up later in the episode, when Fitz refers to Nancy as “Dr. Strangelove.”

Chat reblogged from Let me tell you something, jackass!
- Dr. Nancy McNally: Let's attack.
- Admiral Percy Fitzwallace: Who?
- McNally: Qumar. Let's recommend to the President that we attack.
- Leo McGarry: Why?
- McNally: 'Cause I've had it.
- Fitz: I don't think the UN is going to let us do it for that reason.
- McNally: That's 'cause you're a sissy. You want peace in the Middle East? Give me a pair of third generation ICBM's and a compass. You get B-2 Spirit stealth bombers over Qumar right now as if the Qumari Air defense system requires stealth capability. Just fly in at night, and while you're at it, could you order the USS Louisiana to fire off a D-5 Trident just to see if it works? What's the worst that could happen?
- Fitz: Is she talking to me?
- McNally: Yes!
- Fitz: Well, 98% of all living organisms within a seven mile radius would die instantly in a torrent of fire.
- McNally: Admiral Sissymary.
