Yeah, but they're also really fetishistic about payment for services.

I wonder who Earth's vice-president is.

I guess under the Earth Constitution, you can be President of Earth without actually being born on Earth.

Dear god….

It actually would be pretty cool if after being forced from office Nixon said "fuck it" and went to work for the Soviets.

Operation Downfall wasn't less horrible, though. It would have involved using MORE atomic bombs than just the two used against Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Multiple atomic bombs would have been used in tactical strikes as part of the invasion.

There was no either/or when it came to using the bomb or invading Japan. If you look at the invasion plans, they called for using SEVEN to FIFTEEN atomic bombs to hit the Japanese defenses shortly before the invasion. Once atomic bombs were feasible, they were added to the invasion plans. Not using atomic bombs and…

Stabbing them one by one is harder than having the magic of science make them all fall down dead with no effort on your part.

I'm going to put a sign that says "GO AWAY, HUMANS" on my office door.

I would buy a ticket for that today.

Or "making whoopee."

I don't think Lindsay would have to be a gazillion times more competent to the run the RNC.

Unless he waited to have sex until he was governor of California, his first sexual experience was during the Peak Bush years. Mellie's assumption that he would be put off by 70s style grooming might…

In the strange political universe in which the show takes place, is Congress controlled by Democrats while the president is a Republican? Or is it a mirror version of "House of Cards," with the Republicans controlling all the branches?

It's like watching mid-70s Shatner guest starring on Columbo. The 70s wig technology makes it hard to focus on the story.

I find Cy's new toupee disturbing.

My understanding is it's ok to like this one.

So, it all started with 2001?
