I kind of like that Rodney and John tend to agree--they have all this oh, cool communion--but it does make it scary when they're in charge, because there's no one representing the other side of any debate. People who might have opposed them:
* Weir - heard arguments on all sides, but generally just concluded with "Do it, gentlemen." Also, is dead. * Carter - similar dynamic to above, only replace "dead" with "conspicuous in her absence." * Anyone from higher up in SGC - present counterarguments weakened by their own agendas/blind adherence to protocol that doesn't make sense in this particular instance/dislike of major characters. Plans therefore are opposed by team or else go spectacularly badly. * Teyla - sometimes brings up human rights type points and sometimes doesn't, but when generally defers to John as her commander. * Beckett - exploded.
