No... No... NO!! You just don't get it! Princess Leia and Darth Vader were working TOGETHER! He's the King of the empire and.. and... and... There really wasn't a rebellion like you think... it's all there!

:P

I wonder if he's projecting his fears about the New World Order onto Star Wars in order to make it appear less crazy. I bet Darth Vader in his examples is really a stand-in for Darth Obama...

Like everything, there is a kernel of truth to it -

he does make a decent argument against force ghosts - whenever there is one, R2 is never far away, and he has the ability to generate holograms.
A minute's thought suggests that the very idea of this is stupid. A more detailed examination raises the possibility that it might be an answer to the question "how could the Germans win the war after the US gets involved?" - Captain Seafort, in a thread proposing a 1942 'D-Day' in Quiberon Bay

Where was he on Hoth when Obi-Wan appeared to Luke? Back at the Rebel base and nowhere to be seen. As a side note, I wonder if R2 thinks Luke is crazy for talking to himself as I see no reason a Force ghost would appear to a droid.

This reminds me of the Death Star conspiracy, a parody of 9/11 conspiracy theories. Only this one doesn't seem a parody in the same sense.

Then you would be wrong, as he's pitching Vader as a hero undermining the empire fom within.

Not necessarily. You know how many right-wingers say Obama is trying to destroy this country from within?

Except for the hero part. How many right-wingers are thinking about Obama as the hero destroying Evil Murrica? :)

Or maybe he just read Dark Empire, as that is the whole reasoning Luke uses for following in his father's footsteps.
