So, is Mitt Romney a Cylon or a Replicant?

Let's face it, Mitt Romney just can't pass a Turing Test. There's something a little off about him. Maybe the overly mechanical way in which he walks. Maybe it's his failed attempts to convincingly use human idioms in basic conversation. But I think that what really gives him away is his complete lack of empathy towards human beings.

Anyways, what kind of plastic man is Mitt? We've got a couple choices.

He could be a Replicant...


Or, he could be a Cylon...


What do you think?

Maybe he's a Visitor from V. Can he unhinge his jaw to swallow a rat whole?

Changes his positions, probably changes his shape too to fit in!

Or he could be a Cardassian.

In part, due to the hive mind and the "resistance is futile" part. But you are right, Mitt is worse.

"Stop Dave. I'm afraid. I'm afraid."

I can hear Romney singing 'Daisy Daisy' in that lame singing voice of his.

How would a human woman cope with a Ken Doll husband? He'd pretty much have to have a Barbie for a wife!
