Sterling,
Sorry but you're wrong, you're quoting the parody of the line from Blazing
Saddles.
The actual quote is
Dobbs: 'If you're the police where are your badges?'
Gold Hat: 'Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges! I don't
have to show you any stinkin' badges!'
I shouldn't have to explain that irony is a literary device where you feign
ignorance for comic effect.
So while Sagan did say Billions and Billions in his book title, Alfonso
Bedoya never said: "We don't need no stinking badges".
I should know, I've seen both movies, dozens of times.
Phil (Get a grip Dobsie!) Whitmer
