I thought this was fitting to post, being that it is Halloween and that this is a truly frightening election... I posted it under 'chat, humor, tv, weird'. Hope this was the correct place? Anyway, each of these episodes revolve around a central figure who had persuaded people that he was a "Messiah" of sorts. But as it turned out in the end, the folks couldn't have been more wrong. Of course, by then, it was too late.
Happy Halloween everyone! Hope you are able to access these. They really do get the point across in a different/entertaining sort of way.

Someone likened my feeling the other day (a Freeper) of watching a gremlin tear up the wing of a plane and know you are going to crash, but everyone else thinks you are nuts because they don’t see the gremlin.
That’s how I feel watching this country and their total denial of who and what Barack Obama is.
LOL! Excellent! And horrifically close to what is going on with the Obamians!
Seems as if many of us weren’t completely wasting our time growing up with those TZ episodes. We learned more than we realize.
I could definitely see Dr. Smith helping Barack Obama in any way that he could. Only Major West and maybe the Robot would see through the charade.
Oh the pain ... the pain!
