Well Klingons are just orc wannabe's. I thought everyone knew that.

If your talking TNG Klingons your right but not TOS Klingons.

Exhibit A:   Kor.  Out thought Kirk and Spock.  Was capable of adapting (quicker than Kirk) when the Organians displayed their godlike power.  Cultured, intelligent and capable.

Exhibit B:  Worf.  Growls at Q and repeatedly tries violence against the Organian level (at least!) power of Q.  Can't handle the responsibility of raising his own son.  Uses lines like "If you were any other man I'd . . ." - don't bluster - do it or shut up.  Taken captive how often and not on purpose?  Simply dumb, brutish and incompetent with no understanding of the honour he claims. 

TOS Klingons are more like the men of Gondor.  TNG Klingons are Orcs.
