That's "really" proud. Let's be fair about this, redhawk. And remember
that the perspective of both #6 and #1 is of a very long history of cylon
oppression by the colonists. When #1 Cavil riles up his flock with "Not
gods bless the colonists, gods damn the colonists!" -- when Cavil's entire
multiple existence is reduced to that and a few other provocative sound
bytes -- the fair-minded ought to be able to cut him/them some slack, eh?
Likewise, when Barack's campaign boxed up Michelle the way they did
after her "really proud" comment, it was no more fair than when the
cylons boxed up Xena... I mean D'Anna.
Politicians could learn a lot from BSG. Methinks.
