Do Not Want!

Up until now the Frighteningly Striking Similarities between the wholly-fictional Colonel Saul Tigh (XO, Battlestar Galactica) and the largely-fictional Senator John McSame (Commodore, Ship of Fools) have been merely amusing (The terrifically eerie montage above was created by the artist[s?] at Metamerist.com and happened across by me at Adam Pieniazek's site here.)

After all, they are both;

The cranky remnants of hard living fighter jocks from a long-ago war.

Ex-POWs.

Rageholics, who cannot keep their mercury fulminate-tempers under control.

Comfortable in gigs where no one fires them for being true to their son-of-a-bitch natures.

Completely unfit to be Chief Executives.

[[Spoiler Alert]]


But now that each has heard his own dog-whistle siren’s song that activated long-buried, core-programming…

And now that each has rid himself of a burdensome First Wife, and moved on to knocking chrome boots with their respective

Number Sixes *...

...I for one am getting more than a little creeped out.
