I think JarJar Binks is a more appropriate analogy.

Re: Star Wars: For those comparing Palpatine to Bush
Personally, I would say it's a very close analogy to what GWB and the crew are doing - using the threat of war to increase it's power, limit freedoms, and so forth.
It's not an analogy to the soviet empire, at least not in terms of how it's taking over - that one was done by revolution. Actually, it also draws very close comparisons to Nazi Germany. My history is a bit rusty, but Hitler basically used some trumpted up fires/bombings in the mid 30's as an excuse to consolidate his power and eventually dissolve the Weimar Republic. Very similar to the war trumped up in the first 3 episodes by Palpatine RB |
