The Phantom Menace



I've been hearing, in the media, people talk about the role of U.S. power in the post-Cold War world. I've even heard the word "empire" mentioned on more than one occasion. This is an important discussion to have.
Jerome McDonnell of Chicago Public Radio's Worldview, discussing the Bush administrations efforts to put weapons in space, asked one of his guests, "Is there kind of an empire-ry thing going on in space?"


i know i should put some sort of punchline here, but i can't find one.
