An awesome analogy, from Rep. David Wu (D-Oregon).

Now, this president has listened to some people -- the so-called "Vulcans" in the White House. The ideologues. But you know, unlike the Vulcans of Star Trek who make their decisions based on logic and fact, these guys make it on ideology. These aren't Vulcans! There are Klingons in the White House! But unlike the real Klingons of Star Trek, these Klingons have never fought a battle of their own. Don't let faux Klingons send real Americans to war. It's wrong.

While he is right in that the neocons are better described as Klingons, I don't think this speech is going into the Memorable Political Speeches of All Time book.

More like the Federation really. Enforcing their fascist ideology on other governments under the guise of freedom from the barrel of a photon torpedo tube. And if they get in trouble don't worry Jesus will beam them up in rapture, unless they are wearing a red shirt. Should have dropped Bush and Saddam on that planet where kirk and the Lizard had that duel.

Great pic Ed. Is that Dick Cheney in a lizard costume, or a lizard in a Dick Cheney costume?

Using a special camera lens we are finally able to see the Cheney in his true Zionist lizard colours. The following pictures were too kinky for publication.

Didn't Gene Roddenberry work for the CIA?
Ah, the FBI
