Battlestar Galactica and Politics



Now I know where I have seen John McCain before. Apparently he is Colonel Tigh (or a replecant model of;)who was revealed as a Cylon. For those who don't watch Battlestar Galactica (Why don't you? I have been meaning to talk to you about this) the Cylons are robots who are trying to eliminate humanity. I love the images that appear to be done by the Metamerist for Pieniazek.

  • Hi readers --

    Here's an e-mail exchange I had with the writer of NerdFamily. So much for her promise to take it down...

    ///

    FT: Were you intending to take this down, like I'd asked? Apparently not, since you've just replaced the image I created with someone else's and shifted your "hat tip" to yet another blog. (BTW, "hat tips" are appropriate when you're *linking to* something, not when you're *stealing* someone else's idea or work and passing it off as your own.)

    Let's see... theft of an idea, and lying to me about your willingness to take it down. Isn't that two broken Commandments? Some "Christian" you are. Pathetic, truly.

    But I suppose I can take this up directly with Blogger. Thanks for nothing. ft

  • Hi nerdmom,

    I just wanted to clarify that the image was created by metamerist.com and I found it via literalbarrage.org. The image was not created for me.

    The similarity between the two men is quite stunnng though. Ron Paul should use it in a commercial!
