“We completely understand the public’s concern about futuristic robots feeding on the human population, but that is not our mission,” stated Harry Schoell, Cyclone's CEO.
Yeah, and I'm sure "kill all humans" wasn't in the original corporate mission statement for Skynet either. The point is YOU ARE BUILDING AN ARMY OF FLESH-EATING ROBOTS AND THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. Jeez, people! Have you never seen even one post-apocalyptic sci-fi movie??
Yeah, but the point is they mean well.
Aaaaand my conservative classmate is comparing Sarah Palin's resignation speech to Obama speaking without a teleprompter. Really? Is that important? Is it more important than this moron trying to put herself a heartbeat away from the presidency?
And I'm sure that will be a great comfort to the survivors of the robot zombie apocalypse.

Clearly, we need more pre-apocalyptic sci-fi movies to make the point. Or pre-apocalyptic sci-fi TV shows like
The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
Well, hey, if its not their mission that's fine. It's not like their working their way toward being the evil overlords of a flesh-eating robot army.
Because, of course, if they WERE they'd just say so.

She DID have a teleprompter.
Oh, come on, you guys. Terminator has taught us all to be wary of killer robots with glowing red eyes, yes, but these robots have glowing GREEN eyes. They're fine.
I say that when she can snatch a fly out of the air, she's qualified to be president, not before.
It's at least as good a metric as the conservative classmate proposes.
