When our favorite gay uncle @GeorgeTakei calls out Obama and the NSA, shit is getting real. #SuluHasTheConn

Heh. Takei, who married his partner in 2008, is a same-sex marriage supporter and endorsed President Obama.
To make it even better, try reading his tweet this way:
So I just read a @GeorgeTakei tweet & actually heard him say it in my head with the same voice he used to roast Shatner. Wtf?
