I'll take grandfatherly over the way CNN.com is presenting him. In their little Jeanne Moos video feature on their front page, they have a picture of Robin (al a Batman fame) and Darth Vader. Hmmm, I wonder who CNN would see as more a Vader type character?

On the other hand, if I've got terrorists coming after me and my family, which of those two characters would I rather have on my side? I'll take Darth Vader over Robin every day of the week. That characterization may backfire on them.

True and while I won't watch CNN to confirm, I could imagine their spin of brave Robin defeating world dominating super villains (you know like the Joker and Bin Laden) while Darth Vader lurked in the Shadows, manipulated events and did very little of the 'heavy lifting' himself, except for the most vile of acts.
