Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

Enjoyed the show, but I always thought that Betty was secretly a Super Freak, into latex suits and all manner of BDSM.

I always liked the mom in "lost in space" a little better.

And let us not forget that she played the real-life wife of Ronald Reagan for a while.

Which I guess makes Spock, Reagan's stepson?

Sorry, that is incorrect.  Ronald Reagan's first wife was Jane Wyman, not Jane Wyatt.  http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0943837/bio

So no familial relationship 'tween Spock and The Great Communicator, though I'm sure that SOME sort of linkage can be made in less than six steps.

Wow.  I've had the wrong lady firmly fixed in my memory for a lot of years.  Thanks for clearing that up.
