Are there Klingons in the White House? Vote in the poll!
Congressman Wu says there are Klingons in the White House. Are there?

Yes! There are Klingons in the White House!
No, there are Vulcans in the White House.
This administration is more like Cardassians than Klingons.
The president's cronies should be compared to Ferengi, not Klingons!
Isn't it obvious that there are Pakleds in the White House?
Star Trek is too good for this comparison. Cylons are in the White House!

2. Personally I go with the Borg, they all give the president the same advice, no dissent

If there's a real life example of "The Collective" I think it's the Bush administration. Not to mention that they want to turn everyone into pure Jesus loving people err assimilate them.

3. Cardassians and Pakleds tied for first - 24.3%
Klingons last at 6.5%.

The Bushies lack both honor and common sense.
Pakleds or Cardassians is a fair comparison.

5. I would say Ferengi, but...
Ferengis are governed by rules.

6. Yes, but
they are the "rules of acquisition". They are governed by greed. Sound familiar?

8. WU WU
He is my Congressman, and we always go to his victory 'parties'

I say Condoloser Rice-A-Roni is a Romulan??

Cheney is a Gorgon

Bush is Trelane

Rumsfuher was a 'Gorn'

Lynne Cheney and Karen Hughes are both 'Horta's'

9. Reminds me of an old joke...
Q: What do the Starship Enterprise and toilet paper have in common?
A: They both circle around Uranus to wipe out Klingons...

Just a little joke to brighten one's afternoon...:D

10. I wish I'd paid closer attention to Star Trek
Edited on Mon Jan-22-07 04:31 PM by SemperEadem
I'd know the differences.

I used to work on the paramount lot when they filmed the Next Generation series... and the make up, off set and out in the sunshine (I used to see them in the commissary in full makeup and costume)is remarkably realistic.

I saw one of the support characters with the crinkly nose bridge and remarked to her about how real it looked and she said "no, that's from too much squinting in the sun"--pure comedy!
