Not Vulcans

They're tearing down buildings in the next block over, preparing to put up a big apartment block. Lots of cool stuff is lying out over there, left by departing residents. Kathe and I picked up a bunch of books, including James Mann's The Rise of the Vulcans, subtitled "The History of Bush's War Cabinet".

I have to object to these people (Dick Cheney, Colin Powell, Richard Armitage, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz and Condoleezza Rice) being called "Vulcans". I find the comparison deeply offensive.

Vulcans value logic and control their emotions.

They're also not Klingons, by the way: Klingons are honorable and respect physical courage.

God knows they're not smart enough to be Ferengi.
