Mayor Bloomberg Abandons Independant Status, Converts to Ferengi

Stunning the political world yet again, once Democrat, turned Republican, turned Independant Mayor Bloomberg made a shocking announcement.

"I discovered that there might be a just a bit of competition if I decided to run for President one day as an Independant. So I converted to a party that, hopefully, will offer less competition: The Ferengis."

Political analysts are undecided on the impact of such a bold decision. Says one expert, who refused to be named in case anyone is actually reading this, "It could really change the shape of a Clinton-Thompson election. On the one hand, people who want to vote for actors might lean a bit more towards Fred Thompson. Whereas, the Ferengi party might draw some votes away from cold, conniving people obssesed with money, money, money. We'd have to see who Hillary might choose as her Vice President."

Mayor Bloomberg insists this is a calculated decision arrived at after much thought and introspection. "I want people to know that I'm not seeking the easy way on anything. Also, while pondering my next career move, I certainly did not consult my Magic 8 Ball Star Trek Edition."

We will have more news on this as it develops.

I'll bet he doesn't even know the first ten rules of Acquisition. I wonder if McCain-Feingold is able to track soft money if it is denominated in gold-pressed Latinum?

I'm not sure if reminding that the Ferengi, according to the series-ruining liberals who run Star Trek into the ground after Roddenberry died, are supposed to be today's American rightwingers.

Sadly, the Ferengi were ruined by Rick Berman by introducing the kinder, gentler ideals of the Federation to the Ferengi through Quark's mother Ishka, Grand Nagus Zek (now Quark's Stepfather), and the new Grand Nagus Rom (Quark's Brother). While I might not agree with keeping women in the house and forbidding clothing (although willing nudity is no problem whatsoever!), I liked their no-holds-barred take on captialism. They would have considered Gordon Gekko, if not a god, then at least a prophet.

What I love about Star Trek is that they don't seem to have abortion by the 22nd century.

Let me know when he switches to Minbari or Vorlon. Then I'll give him another look.

Hardly any surprise there.

"I discovered that there might be a just a bit of competition if I decided to run for President one day as an Independant."

I've never heard of one of those.

I assume they are anti-immigrant, they prefer to live in densely populated colonies, and they have a hostile and expansionist foreign policy.

(Ron Paul has won every spelling bee he's ever entered.)

But isn't Nancy Pelosi an evil Ferengi???

#8 - Posted by: shimauma on June 21, 2007 08:28 AM

Anyone who has observed his merchantile endeavors could have told you there was Ferengi blood in his veins.

#9 - Posted by: Writer on June 21, 2007 08:38 AM

Are those Ron Paul supporters in the picture?

#10 - Posted by: on June 21, 2007 08:51 AM

I could have sworn Dennis Kucinich and Ross Perot were Ferengi from the size of their lobes.
