What about Scientologists?

Jonah Goldberg, a smart aleck after my own heart, observed recently that there were no Muslims in Star Trek, which spawned the expected rush of "Trekkie" repsonses, including:

Q: Why are there no Muslims on "Star Trek"?
A: Because it's set in the future.

Chavez Time Machine

Time Machine 11 Years Ago Today USA, USA I'll bet I'm not alone in thinking our CIA had a hand in yesterday's unexpected overthrow of Venezuela's RBC (ratbastardcommie) president, Hugo Chavez.  If so, good on 'em.   With him goes Venezuelan ties to Fidel Castro.  "We're not going to send a single barrel more of oil to Cuba," said a new government spokesman.  Who gets that oil?  Yeah, the good guys (the U.S., for those of you in Berkeley).  Crude oil prices fell 6.1 per-cent in New York. E-MAIL Rodger the Real King of France at 4/13/2002 08:33:00 AM PERMLINK (0) | B-52 Gas Fund | I posted that during my first week in (blog) business.  That I forget it is understandable since after Hugo was removed I erased his file from brainal storage.  Since there was no link, I searched on "We're not going to send a single barrel more of oil to Cuba," and got one hit.     " Fidel Castro was snubbed and U.S. motorists caught a break as governments across the hemisphere scrambled yesterday to assess the stunning fall of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, the left-wing populist ousted under military pressure Thursday after weeks of social unrest.      The new manager of state-owned Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) declared that the ex-president's policy of cultivating ties with Cuba's strongman through subsidized energy trade had been revoked. The next time I remember hearing Chavez's name was when Pat Robertson suggested on-air that American operatives assassinate Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to stop his country from becoming "a launching pad for communist infiltration and Muslim extremism."  He's dead now, but the world would be a better place had Robertson been head of the CIA.
