From tonight’s episode of “The Daily Show”:
“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 made decisions based on logic and fact, these guys make it based 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!”
— Rep. David Wu, (D) – Oregon
You know, I very much enjoy Star Trek analogies, but seriously…this is the floor of the House of Representatives. Even I wouldn’t try that…and to come from a Democrat, no less…not helping us keep the majority, yo…
For the record, Jon Stewart then followed up the blurb by interviewing Leonard Nimoy (“Spock”) and George Takei (“Sulu”) about it, and it was quite hilarious…
Uh … he may have a point … 🙂
i can’t decide if i want to laugh or cry hysterically.
you know what’s funny? i saw the rerun and totally thought of you, sassy. what are the odds?
Rerun?
EVERYTHING comes back to Star Trek !
