John McCain: Is he a Cylon?
I think I said this before, but now that he got the nomination and I've been hearing and seeing him more often, it continues to bother me...
He looks and talks just like Colonel Tigh on Battlestar Galactica.
It doesn't help when he's seen with his wife, since Tigh's wife was a younger blond as well (at least McCain hasn't poisoned her because she was a traitor).
Every time I see him, I wonder where his eyepatch is.
The voice is even closer, so radio doesn't help.
Worst of all, I keep thinking, "We can't trust him. He's secretly a Cylon!"
I even saw him in person and thought the same thing.
Yes, I'm a bit loopy. BG season 4 (the final season) looks like it's going to be awesome and now we've finally got Sci-Fi on HD, so I'm really looking forward to it...
After I posted this the first time, I found this image from another blogger who thought the same thing:

Best Chris Palmer post EVER!!!
Funny! I was just telling my wife the same last Friday.
Some of my best friends are Robo-Americans, you insensitive clod.
The short answer is yes, he is a Cylon. The longer answer involves psychodynamics involving free will and the infectious nature of the human spirit.
In other words, the other Cylons better watch out.
Ha ha ha ha.
No wait, this is important! Everybody knows image is everything.
Ha ha ha ha *votes*
And here I didn't want Mike Huckabee to get the nomination b/c I thought he looked like President Logan from "24".
My problem was I thought McCain was like Tigh BEFORE Tigh was a Cylon....
I would try to imagine McCain, but instead, I'd imagine the loose cannon, surly, unstable bastard with nothing left to lose...
now that Tigh's a Cylon, maybe McCain is better off. i mean, apparently we're all Cylons. I hate this plotline. If Tigh and Starbuck aren't the two most human characters in the BG universe, then humanity doesn't mean anything. which is apparently the point of this silly plot...
So does that make Obama Baltar? I mean, if you look past appearances it fits.
Well, it does explain his commitment to campaign in all 50 states simultaneously...
I've called that character on BSG "that John McCain looking guy" ever since the show started.
But of course if i went by personality i would normally say that Hillary is a cylon, except... has any of you noticed that the cylon women on the show are all smokin' hot? And not even bill finds Hill attractive.
The other thought is if the choice is between a confirmed cylon and Obama... I'd go for the cylon.
TIGH is a cylon? SPOILER ALERT! My hub and I are catching up on BSG via DVD, and have only gotten the middle of season 4. I might have to cheat, now, and watch the Tivo'd episodes while he is at work.
TIGH a cylon..
the larger question is.. does this mean John McCain is the first of entire 'model' of cylons? Or is he, perhaps, Borg.
Resistance is FUTILE!
While he doesn't look like him Obama sounds just like The Rock. I keep waiting for him to yell out at the end of a speech "Can you smellllllllll what Barack is cooking?"
Don't you people get it.
Tigh is not a Cylon; neither are the others who thought they were Cylons at the end of that season.
They are humans who SLEPT WITH Cylons, or who slept with someone who slept with a Cylon (e.g. Tigh's wife).
Cylons are not thoroughly mechanical; there's a biological component. A disorder can be contracted by people who slept with Cylons or shared needles with Cylons or otherwise had significant blood/fluids contact; this disorder can infect the brain with nanomachines, causing the infected person to "tap in" to the Cylon hive-mind in an irregular and somewhat hallucinatory fashion.
(I thought everybody had figured that out by now.)
@R.C. I like your idea, but what about the Chief's wife, I forget her name, he had a baby with her. Also, with whom did Torie (the president's assistant) sleep with? Anders? Who did he sleep with? Starbuck? Who did she sleep with? What about Baltar, they did it in one of the early seasons?
I'm not too concerned that John McCain looks somewhat scary. I'm also not that concerned that he's old as fuck (although he does seem to be getting a bit senile) but I am quite concerned that he's a warmongering tool of the neocons who have destroyed this country over the last 8 years. You'd have to be insane to vote for four more years of this BS.
I'm sure if he is, his OS is Vista, which begs the question how can we trust him if he's going to constnatly need rebooting during emergencies?
"I'm sorry General, the President can't respond at the moment--his speaker drivers aren't responding but we're on hold with tech support."
Robosexuals Unite!

No the Democratic Party is hte Borg.
All for the COLLECTIVE"
You will be ABSORBED!
My GOD!!! Have any of you ever been laid?!?!?
But... even though I hated the show years ago and have not watched any of these new ones because of that..... this is kind of funny.
That is the funniest thing I have read in weeks! Now, every time I see Tighe, I'll think "I'm voting for that guy!"
I've linked to you here: http://consul-at-arms.blogspot.com/2008/04/re-john-mccain-is-he-cylon.html
Does this mean that Adama will take over about halfway into the presidency?
Win.
I still wish that there was a Roslin/Zarek/Airlock '08 ticket.
Wow!! You guys need to move out of your mother's basement and find a life.
Joe Libermann is Emporer Palpatine! I know it for a fact! Look at them, have you ever seen them together?
Just wait to the end of BG Season 4. You will take it all back. You will see.
Actually, what's really scary is Pope Benedict looks like the Star Wars Emporer Palpitane.
In the 21st century truth will indeed be stranger than fiction,
FrankenCain will tear this country apart. He is a traitor to his country and the veterans and soldiers know it. Google McCain pow treatment sometime. This is why Ron Paul has gotten the vast majority of US armed forces contributions. Check this article out. It will help you understand. Although you might not agree with everything in it, there's much good information.

I almost can't watch since I keep wondering what Johnny Mac is doing on the Battlestar. To think of him with Six....
LOL. I've been thinking that for awhile now. We could even push the similarities further... McCain has been married to two blondes. Now Tigh has been married to one and is involved with another. LOL.
Beautiful...
I actually found this site because i was looking for photos of the col. Saul Tigh because i wanted to do a side by side of him and McCain. You saved me time!
THANKS~!
