I think of this movie line every time I hear a government official say something like "we have to do something about this problem"...

Mel Brooks on Government, from Blazing Saddles:

Governor William J. Le Petomane: Holy underwear! Sheriff murdered! Innocent women and children blown to bits! We have to protect our phoney baloney jobs here, gentlemen! We must do something about this immediately! Immediately! Immediately! Harrumph! Harrumph! Harrumph!
