This is goddamn funny!

THE EMPIRE STRIKES BARACK

Basically, the entire campaign so far, told in 5 minutes, through Star Wars.
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."

In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!
If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!!
Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

That was funny. Good to see both a pertinent summary of the campaign so far and a humorous integration with Star Wars.

Damn, I was really hoping for an Ackbar "It's a trap!" clip during the "debate."
"He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot, but don't let that fool you. He really is an idiot."

That's in Episode 6, duh.
Vendetta wrote:Richard Gatling was a pioneer in US national healthcare. On discovering that most soldiers during the American Civil War were dying of disease rather than gunshots, he turned his mind to, rather than providing better sanitary conditions and medical care for troops, creating a machine to make sure they got shot faster.

Cool, but choppy. A second edition made after Obama wins would be much more awesome. :)
