Adama certainly did not try to get along with the Cylons! He was a little bit less crazed than Admiral Cain in the new one, but he was ‘kill em all’ until the very very end when the fight was basically over.
Before the cylons attacked in the pilot of the miniseries he was at some ceremony or other - something to do with the decommisioning of the Galactica. The woman who was education secretary who became president was there. He went off on his speech about Moral Relativism and maybe the Cylons were mean because the humans were - made me sick to my stomach. That President chic stood up and clapped awwww. Adam changed his tune after the attack there was a funny interaction when he called the President “that school teacher”.
again after the pilot i watched an episode here and there and all i kept seeing was liberal parables.
maybe i caught it at off times but i did not see one iota of conservatism
