#2 Actually, Spook, I tend to think of him as "that pathetic Trekkie wanna-be."

If memory serves, back before they ended, Baby Assad got himself a guest shot on one of the Star Trek series. Looked as pathetic and inept in a StarFleet uniform as he does in charge of a country.

I'll have to find a photo. But I seem to recall him standing there in an ensign's uniform, looking vaguely "Uhhhh.. what's my line? I've forgotten my line! Oh, God, I've forgotten my line!"-ish..
