Luke Skywalker: Obama reminds me of Obi-Wan Kenobi because he’s so wise

Something to cleanse the palate while we wait for Paul Ryan to attack the Death Star in Kentucky. All of you already knew that Hamill is a liberal, yes? (So much so that the story of the haircut that Romney forced on a classmate in high school appears to weigh heavily in his electoral calculations.) If not, here’s a rule of thumb that will serve you well: Virtually everyone associated with “Star Wars” is an out-and-proud leftist. There may be a Jawa somewhere in the cast who votes libertarian, but opinion among the major players appears to be as varied as storm troopers’ uniforms. In fairness to Hamill, though, O is a bit like Obi-Wan: He performs mind tricks on dull-witted apparatchiks; he leaves his underlings equipped to defend themselves with little more than the Force; and judging from the polls lately, it looks like he’s headed for an early exit from the movie. It’s Cenk, however, who’s right about Biden. He’s much more like Chewbacca than Uncle Owen — primitive yet loyal, and not ineffective when the chips are down.

Speaking of O’s early exit, and in the interest of redeeming this dumb post with actual information, go look at today’s Gallup tracker. Romney bounced out to a two-point lead after O’s Denver debacle but then slid back into a tie yesterday, raising the question of whether his surge was a bounce that would soon fade or something more enduring. Today’s result: Romney back up by a point. Not smoking-gun proof of durability, but a promising sign. Also promising:

Obama “wise”??? He’s a pot-smoking, narcissistic ignoramus. He’s too stupid to know that he doesn’t know anything.

I wish I could have gotten a job talking in front of a camera for 3 movies in the 1970’s and 1980’s so I could be important enough to pontificate on very important things. Instead I got stuck figuring out how to manufacture products required to build places for people to live in, much better, much faster, and with much much less energy...the lowly unimportant stuff.

Speaking of which, did you see this week's episode? Stewie told Brian "It's libtards like you that are ruining this country" after Brian said they should watch PBS. I almost fell out of my chair.

Great link! Ive always viewed the Empire as Rome or maybe Europe in the 20s. The final scene of the original movie is enough to show Lucas’s colors. The ceremony on the parade grounds with the “hero’s” marching up between the ranks screams of Nazi Germany in my opinion. And Han Solo shot first!

So has Mark Hamill done anything since Star Wars aside from that horrid Corvette Summer flick?

He's been evil.

The only unredeemable villian in a Hayao Miyazaki film, ever.
