Enterprise felt too familiar in the story tonight.
It seems like it mirrored some things in this country a little too well. Like the Bush administration.

1. Yup, Vulcan High Command=PNAC
Pre-emptive strike on the Andorians based on phony evidence of a new weapon. A terror attack carried out by the high command on their own soil and blamed on a scapegoat and then a war planned against people (the Andorians) who had nothing to do with it...

4. "The return of the Vulcans" - political book about PNAC-ers,

5. Not to mention trying to pin it on a little-understood religious sect
I hate to say it, but I can hardly bring myself to watch this arc, because of its constant reminder of what we're living right now. So much for escapism....
