Gotta love those Yiddische liberals in Hollywood!
Did anyone else notice the OBVIOUS political commentary by putting the evil words of George Bush in DARTH VADAR's mouth.

"ONLY THE SITH DEAL IN ABSOLUTES!" -Obi Wan Kenobi.
Only the Sith deal in absolutes, but the Sith are absolutely evil. Apparently the Jedi are mind-numbingly stupid. If these morons were entrusted with the protection of a galaxy spanning Republic, then give me Palpatine any day.

I doubt the resemlence is that obvious. coz Darth Vadar was a talent in a ways, and most powerfull - while GWB is just a political clown and pawn in the hands of those who realy play the game. well, may be he does have a knuck for business - doesn't make him such a heroic character though.

Darth Vadar, "heroic" ????? Do you prefer "heroic" leaders for nations of the world?
"realy play the game"?? Is that the elders of Zion? or something along those lines? MARK

jelous ?
I never claimed nor even had an intention to make any genius comments - what to speak to get a recognition for geniusity of any of them. simply talking, pal !
so, why I wonder you would be so tempted to expose my ulterior motives - uless it is you are the one who realy has them and feel challenged by imaginary genius of someone else.
never mind - I give you all the glory - you are much more genius than me.
should we consider the exchange of compliments accomplished ?

Are you aware how hyperbole works? Apparently not.

Lord, I missed my alter ego. TQ, you have to alert me when you are going to return here, so I can come on board and complete the routine. Where the Hell have you been lately?

Singapore.
Oh come on, anyone who has seen the movie and watched the Darth Vadar "justification" for his evil actions, am I right or wrong that there is an obvious bush political commentary?
For me, of course, it was the highlight of the movie.

Singapore, huh? I'll bet you were on your P's and Q's throughout the entire visit. Anyway, welcome back. We have missed your comedy routine. The OsMan has not lived up to billing, and TOT has given up the race, so it is all yours to reclaim.

Thai, you are right that George Lucas is sending a political message.
And I am right in saying that George Lucas is a policy dunce and should never commentate on it again. In attempting to push his political agenda he succeeds in making Palpatine look evil but smart, and the Jedi look well meaning but mind numbingly stupid.

George Lucas has as much political acumen as Barbra Strisand - maybe less.
