"Politics (Stargate SG-1)"

Template:TVep

Plot

SG-1 argues the importance of the SGC, citing several previous examples of their exploits off-world, in an attempt to stop Senator Kinsey from ending the program. Template:Sgspoiler Senator Kinsey arrives at SGC planning to shut the program down as it represents a 'colossal waste of money'. Despite the testimony of SG-1 and Hammond, the Senator orders the program terminated immediately. Even Jackson's assertion that the Goa'uld are about to attack Earth has no effect on Kinsey, who insists that God will protect America and the Goa'uld will be no match for the US military.

Trivia

This episode is largely a clip show containing scenes from previous episodes.

After the Senator dismisses the threat of a Goa'uld attack fleet, Jackson sarcastically says 'We'll just upload a virus into their mothership'. This could be a reference to the film Independence Day. Template:Stargate-stub
