Even GAWD-awful prequels hold lessons for progressives: JarJar Binksies
Edited on Mon Jan-21-08 01:53 PM by IdesOfOctober
And now we turn to the book of Wookiepedia for a reading on http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Jar_Jar_Binks">Jar Jar Binks.

Oh, his heart was in the right place when he proposed to give emergency powers to the Chancellor. He clearly thought he was following in the footsteps of Padme's call for a http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Vote_of_No_Confidence">Vote of No Confidence.

Like Jar Jar, so many who are supporting the "frontrunners" don't have the true facts about the interlocking relationships among the http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Trade_Federation">Trade Federation, the http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Commerce_Guild">Commerce Guild, the http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/InterGalactic_Banking_Clan">InterGalactic Banking Clan, and the BCFEE - er - http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith">Sith Dynasties. "http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rule_of_Two">Always two there are. No more, no less."

For the love of midi-chlorians, don't be a Binksie primary voter! And May the Force be with you - always.

4. Poor Lucas. I think he got caught unawares by that.
