It's Mega Maid. She gone from suck to blow

 

So does this mean that the US has truly become the first "global" dictatorship?

Global. Dude it's outer space. How about a Galactic Enpire!

 

George W Palpatine: In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society which I assure you will last for ten thousand years.

President Bush has signed a new National Space Policy that rejects future arms-control agreements that might limit U.S. flexibility in space and asserts a right to deny access to space to anyone "hostile to U.S. interests."

Suppose an Axis of Evil nation were to launch a communications satellite, or to start getting involved in space tourism. Is Bush asserting the U.S. has the right to shoot this stuff down? I mean, what gives? I could see it if we were at war with a nation, or if the object we were shooting down was a spy satellite being used against us. But Bush's assertion clearly goes too far, and will correctly be interpreted as evidence of American imperialism and arrogance.
