Is Obama too much like Spock?

[derspiess]

Man I love the fact the dude is slow and deliberate in his decisions...that is probably the best thing I can say to him.

He's made a decision?

But I suppose in most cases I shouldn't complain about Obama being indecisive & therefore not doing anything.

[Valmy]

Really? You can't think of anything better?

Um...snappy dresser?

He is ready to announce his plan on Afghanistan and is sending more troops over there.

Hilarious after all we have been through there are still idiots demanding we make more reckless poorly thought out decisions.  But anyway we went around and around about this in another thread.

That Basque dude is a total trip.  I didn't know people could grow eyebrows like that.

Actually they look photoshopped to me.

They're fo' real, man.

[Capetan Mihali]

   I love the second picture.

You callin' THESE photoshopped?!?

It's probably Sharpie

It does sort of look like the ears and eye brows got tightened up a little in the original pic.

In the last pic he looks alot like the dad from Malcolm in the Middle.

Cool, deliberate, logical. Such terrible qualities for a leader.

[The Larch]

He even joked about it:

[Josquius]

Former Lehendakari (Basque country governor) Juan José Ibarretxe is way more Spock-like than Obama will ever be.

Wow, he's not Spock but he's certainly got some vulcan in him.

[Ed Anger]

yes they are.

[Caliga]

Nuke first, ask questions later.

I don't see much Spock-like about Obama.  Al Gore?  Now there's Spock!

I guess Clinton was Kirk.  Dubya was, hmm, uh, Reginald Barclay, maybe?  Don't know who Obama would be.  Possibly Janeway--smug, self-righteous, and usually incompetant.

I would agree that judgment is definitely a key principle of leadership.  But decisiveness is as well.  I would say that Obama has been somewhat below average in the former, and horrible in the latter.
