It's been a question discussed by liberal bloggers for years, and the creator of "Star Wars" has finally settled it once and for all:
Former Vice President Dick Cheney is Emperor Palpatine, and former President George W. Bush is Darth Vader.
Phew...glad that's settled.

Ping for your list.
Me’sa tinks you should stick to special effects.
What a loser. Every aspect of his life revolves around Star Wars. Talk about living in the past. Hey George, when can we expect your next Star Wars redo?
Of course right after that Obi wan says “Only a sith deals in absolutes.” Only the sith and jedis apparently.
Sarah Palin is Princess Laya

I would say the first part of Return of the Jedi wasn’t too bad but the real turning point for me was when the ewoks (aka mini me wookies) showed up and ended the whole techno empire with their eco warrior chic. From that point on everything that followed was downhill.
This touches on why the Elitist left hates George W Bush. Bush was raised to be one of them, yet he turned his back on them and “joined the other side”. Think of where he comes from: a connected and influential New England and Episcopalian family. He was sent to Andover, then Yale (where he was admitted to Skull & Bones), then Harvard. After that he did a stint in the national guard and was hooked up in the family business. That is the testbook career path of a northern elite class.
Then George W Bush did something unthinkable in Texas- something that none of his peers could even think to tolerate. George W Bush became a born again Christian. Born again Christian? To the people he grew up with, that was the mentality of the racist rednecks who wave John 3:16 signs at NASCAR events. To the elitists, the young GWB had rejected them and embraced the other side. He became part of the very culture that makes Boston brahmans throw up. Bush had joined a backwards and unsophisticated culture of tea totallers, big tent revivals, snake handlers, and door to door evangelists. In the minds of leftist elitists, George W Bush had joined the Dark Side.
I saw one of the prequel Star Wars movie. Tried to watch one of the originals but couldn’t get through it. Stuff doesn’t do anything for me. So Lucas can pound sand.
Oh my GAWD!!! Jar Jar Binks is POTUS!
“Heh, by the time we got to Revenge of the Sith I was CHEERING for the Sith to beat the Jedi. “
Never does the series explain why the Siths are evil. The only bad thing they seem to do is prevent the Senate (which is the UN) from taking orders from a council of unelected, unappointed and unaccountable elitists.
>>And who, exactly, is Jar Jar Binks?<<
The entire US Congress.
>>And who, exactly, is Jar Jar Binks?<<
The entire US Congress.
Actually, they’re the players in the bar scene.
The entire US Congress.
Sadly, no -- It's not President Obama, it's President Binks -- we have Jar Jar as our Commander in Chief, God help us! The U.S. Congress are all ewoks.
Well, that will certainly get those star wars dvd’s flying off the shelf
Nothing like alienating 1/2 your audience - takes real brains to do that.
LOL! Clearly I am the victim of a Jedi mind trick...I had forgotten how cheesey it felt when they had to use that as a plot point TWICE! Good for you!
Vader was intelligent and trained to lead. Obama is more like (perhaps an evil version of) Jar-Jar Binks, mindless but elected because he could be manipulated. Anyone sensible still wonders how Jar-Jar made it into the George Lucas script, and how Obama made it into the Soros script.
Meesa same as Obama. Meesa stabbin good people inda back.
Well, he does have the ears for it!
