Is Bush a Sith Lord?

[Revenge of Sith]

This column by Paul Craig Roberts is obscene and I'm disappointed that NewsMax would include him as one of their pundits.

Memo to Mr. Roberts:

It's just a movie.

[QueenBee3]

ummm..it's a movie.

[Rosemont]

PCR is campaigning for the Voinovich sellout awards. And he ruined the movie for me.

[QueenBee3]

PS. just watched Star Wars A New Hope. Here's my favorite line and it sounds just like something Bush would say uttered by the brilliant Han Solo:

I'd prefer a straight fight instead of all this sneaking around."

[Lawdoc]

Yes its just a movie. It would be fun to have a thread discussing GWB's traits compared to Star Wars. As for myself, I don't believe he is Yoda like. Rather, he is a Jedi Knight of the first order....maybe Obi Wan?

[randog]

This guy needs to go home and play with his dolls.

[Sleeping Freeper]

In episode one and two I always thought Palpatine looked and acted like a cross between Robert Bird and Robert Lieberman.....

[rhombus]

Who's thinking in absolutes now?

[WilliamWallace1999]

As Yoda would say, "Quite the dumbass, Mr. Roberts is."


I think the moon-rock worshipers had just a wee bit of hatred for us before Mr. Bush came along. Think first WTC bombing and go all the way back to the Marine barracks. We have been their great Satan all along. You have to have someone to hate in order for your pitiful dictatorships led by in-bred camel humpin' prices to survive.

People like this author really should find something productive to do, maybe even a girlfriend.

[Brilliant]

The machinations of the Senate were more reminiscent of the UN than the US Senate.

[WilliamWallace1999]

prices = princes.

oops.

[Sleeping Freeper]

Sorry, I meant "Joe" Lieberman...

[Enterprise]

Other topics Paul Craig Roberts missed an opportunity on which to pointificate:

Was George Bush one of the Roman Soldiers scourging Jesus?

Was George Bush a Troll Commander in "LOTR"?

Was George Bush behind the disastrous attack in Paris in "Team America"?

Was George Bush responsible for the mission to retrieve "Alien?"

While much of this is foilhat the following contains a kernal of truth

"Just as Child Protective Services has had to frame innocent parents and child-care providers as child abusers in order to justify its budgets and a massive bureaucracy, the vast Homeland Security apparatus will have to "find" terrorists. Otherwise, there is no point to all the expanded police powers and the huge budget.

Just as the indignities of airport security and its assorted searches fall on loyal American citizens, the police state measures will also fall on loyal American citizens."

Large bureaucracies are notoriously inept but are good at self perpetuation by constantly finding new rationales for their existence. When the inevitable rat candidate wins the White house and enunciates 'terrorism is basically a law enforcement problem' on who will fall the weight of the DHS search for enemies-on normal Americans who have a touching belief that the Bill or Rights includes the 2nd Amendment and includes the right to strongly criticize politicians, in short the people on this web site.

I was thinking "It's Robert Byrd" throughout the whole movie.

Even has his personality.

[ThinkDifferent]

Sith ping

[Ciexyz]

oh, brudder.

[DarthVader]

Paul Craig Roberts has lost it. I bet he's been boofing his sister.
