  • HEY GEORGE LUCAS, IS OBAMA A SPACE JEDI?: “I would say that’s reasonably obvious.” HOYVIN-GLAYVIN! [Yeas & Nays]

Darth Vader started out as a jedi too.

superfecta June 25, 2008 at 3:51 pm

Obama doesn’t have to wear the stupid rat-tail as in the films that suck, though, right?

NotUrEvryDayWEzl June 25, 2008 at 3:52 pm

Does that make us Younglings?

shortsshortsshorts June 25, 2008 at 3:53 pm

So now it should be Lucas’ next endeavor to make an epic-film about Congress and remake 17 or 18 more times.

ManchuCandidate June 25, 2008 at 3:54 pm

Not Mace. He lost and I hated all but 1/6th of the prequels.

Barry’s has got to be Lando Calrissian.

stankfest June 25, 2008 at 3:55 pm

Obama reminds me of Jar-Jar Binks.

ManchuCandidate June 25, 2008 at 3:56 pm

Ewoks.

AngryBlakGuy June 25, 2008 at 3:56 pm

…all the “Star Wars” analogies have been completely played out already. Can we move onto another Sci-Fi series? May I suggest the Matrix, Barry can be Neo and Michell can be Trinity!

Quacker June 25, 2008 at 3:56 pm

Larry Craig as C3PO.

Q2 June 25, 2008 at 3:57 pm

OK…apparently this happens to be true. Watch this…

And after your done sit down and think long and hard about your Hopey hope and ponder whether it is truly indeed your hope or if you’re just a Hopey dope being pulled along by a Hopey rope.

Quacker June 25, 2008 at 3:57 pm

Kucinich as R2D2

Lionel Hutz Esq. June 25, 2008 at 3:57 pm

George is obviously a Hillary supporter. Remember what happened to the last black Jedi. Didn’t the slaughter of the Younglings happen in June?

Godless Liberal * June 25, 2008 at 3:57 pm

And with that, Obama hops onto his motorcycle and goes sailing over a shark tank.

[re=24531]ManchuCandidate[/re]:

So you think Obama is only good enough to run an out-of-the-way mine that the Empire doesn’t even care about?

[re=24535]AngryBlakGuy[/re]:
I like the thought of Republicans trying to get renewed like on “Logan’s Run”.

AxmxZ June 25, 2008 at 4:09 pm

“And although Lucas’ movies are filled with high-tech graphics and visual wizardry, he says they’re nothing compared with Congress, telling us that getting things done there is much more complicated than his movies’ special effects. “Anyone who’s seen one of my movies knows that’s saying something about Congress,” he said.”

Why doesn’t Congress just use the old Lucas trick of standing in one place and using cameras to make it seem as though they are moving forward? Oh, wait…

Servo June 25, 2008 at 4:09 pm

Hope may not be available as shown.
Some assembly may be required.
Individual states may vary.
Hope void where prohibited.

WhatTheHeck June 25, 2008 at 4:10 pm

McCain: “Young Jedi, come learn from an old master such as I. I have been around for 300 years living in the hot sands of Arizona.”

Walter Sobchak June 25, 2008 at 4:12 pm

[re=24538]Q2[/re]: Don’t read the comments under that youtube video unless you like hating communism, and think Hopey is a communist, and are afraid of brown people, and still live in your mom’s basement.

shortsshortsshorts June 25, 2008 at 4:18 pm

[re=24554]Walter Sobchak[/re]: Its all one guy too, “introvertical71″

Kinda entertaining.

Serolf Divad June 25, 2008 at 4:18 pm

Will Obama be played by Samuel Jackson, then?

NotUrEvryDayWEzl June 25, 2008 at 4:19 pm

[re=24535]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: You confuse me. Who is Morpheus?

AxmxZ June 25, 2008 at 4:20 pm

[re=24556]Serolf Divad[/re]: Obama can only be played by Will Smith. It’s all about the ears.

edgydrifter June 25, 2008 at 4:24 pm

[re=24557]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: George Soros, obviously.

NotUrEvryDayWEzl June 25, 2008 at 4:30 pm

[re=24572]edgydrifter[/re]: Obvi

gbuell June 25, 2008 at 4:34 pm

Obama vs. Hillary earlier this month http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjnD6NdC3e4

Hopefully this isn’t Obama vs. McCain later though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mu_XLDlDWLQ

(if you’re wondering, Anakin in that video represents Hilltard defectors)

Q2 June 25, 2008 at 4:40 pm

[re=24554]Walter Sobchak[/re]: Oh Walter Walter Walter, the planet is certainly not short on the confused and ignorant is it.

AngryBlakGuy June 25, 2008 at 4:40 pm

[re=24557]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: …Morpheus can be Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson(Im grasping for straws here)

[re=24546]Servo[/re]: …hehehe yeah that would be hilarious.

keepinitrealyo June 25, 2008 at 7:38 pm

Every moment that Lucas is testifying before Congress is one less that he might have spent destroying his legacy. So it turns out they’re not as useful as they appear.

keepinitrealyo June 25, 2008 at 7:39 pm

[re=24781]keepinitrealyo[/re]: Haha, I meant “useless!” Great comedy works either way.

hopeforbill June 25, 2008 at 8:39 pm

[re=24560]AxmxZ[/re]: You could get the guy that did Spock’s ears … oops, sorry, different franchise.

itgetter June 25, 2008 at 11:12 pm

[re=24533]stankfest[/re]: That’s not racial transcendence

ThreeFingersNeat June 26, 2008 at 9:10 am

[re=24541]Godless Liberal *[/re]: “The shark, this has jumped.”
