Um, well if the Pres is a Cylon Atrocities is talking spoilers. That fact wasn't uncovered in the miniseries. They did make it look as if Boomer is a Cylon at the very end though.

I had not considered the possibility of the President being a cylon. My repugnance toward the kind of thinking she diplayed was too overwhelming. If she is a cylon, that would explain her stupidity. However, I doubt the cylons' ability to program even a robot to give the kind of orders she did with a straight face. Only a truly human idiot could do that.

I must compose an "Airlock Chant."

I didn't have any problems with the new president, but then again, I've only seen it once. Can't wait until next week so I can get the dvd. But remember, she was like 52nd in line of succession, or something like that. She wasn't even praying for a chance to be the leader, until it was thrust on her. Plus, she was a teacher, IIRC. Also, with everything else, we find out she has a terminal disease (from the way she was acting, I think it was probably cancer). So she's not exactly a great statesperson. But if the new show is anything like the old show, it will be Adama calling the shots anyway. I think she'll just be more of a hindrance until they actually find Earth.

I already watched the 7th episode of the series and, up until now, the president don´t gave any hint at being a cylon...
