President Bush is a SITH![views:5857][posts:12]_________________________________________ [May 19,2005 6:22pm - an80smetalchick ""] For some reason, while watching Episode III last night in the theater... I thought of how much power Chancellor Palpatine had and his extended years as Chancellor show how much power he truly had during the war. This made me think of the Bush administration, Senior and Junior and currently Juniors second term in office and how much power he and his father have and the war that is going on here in America. The Bush families are SITHS! The dark side of the force is strong with them all!!!!!! Too bad that damn grenade didn't explode! |

Amazingly there is a line in the movie, when Anakin Skywalker says (just before becoming Darth Vader), "You are either with me, or you are my enemy." Of course, we all clearly remember when President Bush said, "You're either with us or against us in the fight against terrorism." Sound familiar? |

Of course, we all clearly remember when President Bush said, "You're either with us or against us in the fight against terrorism." The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Also, in the movie, Darth Vader is made to believe he is doing the "right thing" for the people and to save his wife. |

You have a dessert planet that different nations across the galaxy are interested in because of the need to mine spice (oil?). The people living on that planet are crazy religious people that live in caves. The first time you see one of these people is when a women is shown calling out for Jihad. She actually says Jihad. And then as the movie progresses, they rebel by blowing up the mine fields... lighting the oil fields on fire? I don't believe the war in Iraq was to get their oil, but it was pretty funny to watch the movie and make the parallel. The desert planet was called Arrakis, which even sounds like iraq. Alright I'll stop being a nerd now :krusty: |

Bush reminds me more of something out of a Marx Brother's movie... or maybe a mix of Baldrick from Black Adder and Edmund from Brain Donners |
