Based on the blurry profile of the head I’d say it’s a stretch at best to make the comparison.

“Based on the blurry profile of the head I’d say it’s a stretch at best to make the comparison.”

The Lannisters who execute Ned Stark and his followers are also the most malevolent faction in the narrative. This is a bit analogous to portraying Bush as a fallen Texican at the Alamo, or as a Brit at Dunkirk. Just as McCain mocked the Tea Party activists as Hobbits, thus aligning himself and the GOPe with Mordor, it just underscores that a lot of GOP apparatchiks could benefit from cliff notes before making PR statements.

I agree. I love Game of Thrones, both the books and the HBO series. Not gonna stop watching.

I guess you guys missed the part where the show’s creators admit that they put a facsimile of his head in there as a prop.
