Star Wars and Politics...???

"Oh, no..." I moaned when I read this. Now this has trickled over to the movies?

Michael Moore was one thing, but now George Lucas? Okay, the man said "Iraq didn't exist" when he started the prequels, fine. But why, why WHY do we have to dissect down to the nth degree a MOVIE meant to entertain?

This person, me, right here, goes to the movies to just watch a movie, to sink into the seat (as much as possible) and just lose myself in someone else's life. That is the one place I don't want to have to think about politics, right vs. left...blah blah blah.

I'm sick of it. SICK. OF. IT. And you wonder why I don't watch the news, not even Fox News, anymore? Why I can only take Rush and Hannity in small doses?

I know, I KNOW, everyone is allowed their opinion. But come ON, folks, first speculation about a droid's sexuality, and now THIS???

It's enough to make a preacher swear. It's enough to make me just bury my head and be totally ignorant (not half ignorant, as I am now) to what's going on in the world.

What's next? Harry Potter, as the great Liberal liberator, taking on Voldemort, the evil Bushie? Cripes.
