Prepositional reanalysis

Treading on Heidi's ground here, but I caught this in the Simpsons movie:

Russ Cargill has just finished listing the order in which he wants the guards posted around Springfield (tough tough soft tough soft soft tough tough soft tough).

His aide says, tentatively, "Sir, I'm afraid you've gone mad with power."

Cargill responds: "Of course I have. Have you ever tried going mad without power? It's boring. Nobody listens to you."
