I guarantee 75% of that crowd has worn a Star Wars or Star Trek outfit to a movie premiere, and at least 9 in 10 own either a phaser or light saber.

Whatchu got against Trekkies, homie?

So us Conservatives don't enjoy good SciFi?

The two biggest Trek nerds I know are my Brother-in-law and his wife. He's a Reagan conservative and she's a teachers' union Lib.

So sorry, can't agree with you, but thanks for inspiring my new tagline!

ROFLMAO!! Sorry guys, but why should the government pay for your tuition? There is only so much demand for (insert useless liberal arts degree name here) and the market is saturated.

Hey, I represent that remark!

I only dress up in Battlestar Galactica wear, LOL! [Barf Alert!]

No really, I've always watched (whatever season of) Star Trek for the same reasons that I fought to stay awake for the first Apollo moon landing as a little-kid-Army-brat in the middle of the night while on vacation in France:

Part national pride, part scientific curiosity.

It's entertaining to me to imagine Humans in space, traveling the stars. That's what the Toob is supposed to be. Entertaining. Ignore all the liberal themes. Every network show has some theme or another.

The other 1 owns a Varon-T Disruptor so watch out!

:^)

p.s. Even the Froggies were impressed by the Moon landing.

Just thinking about the first time Man landed on another planet still gives me goosebumps.
