Not my usual political thread

[Agmen of Eladesor]

Nope, this time it's not politics at all.

It's about Obama ticking off all right thinking Star Wars and Star Trek fans everywhere.

Jedi mind meld?

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.

He didn't say that. Someone else made that happen.

What kind of sorcery is this?

HA! HAHA! Hahahahaha... Hehehe... *ahem* Right, I find that comical.


So Obama wishes he could forcibly control the Republican's thoughts and minds? How very dictator-like....

So thanks to his faux-pas, Obama has managed to create possibly the unholiest alliance imaginable in politics: Scifi nerds and Teapartiers.

God help him

[Xelon]

The poor Americans that have to bear having a goverment that can't agree on a single thing and need to get Star Wars/ Trek references to help them out.

I feel for them.

1) It's probably silly to assume Obama has any knowledge of the extended Star Wars universe - it was probably a slip of the tongue.

2) It's even more stupid to associate any importance to it. Still, American media gotta stir, right?

I don't think it's that silly to assume he has knowledge of the expanded universe. It's perfectly within reason despite being somewhat unlikely.

YO, Read ma first post, there is such a thing as a Jedi Mind Meld. Obama was correct, the nerds were wrong, and I'm slightly disappointed.
