The scene above is from the last Star Wars movie, with Natalie Portman’s Senator Amidala commenting that, “This is how Liberty dies, to thunderous applause”, as Supreme Chancellor Palpatine declares himself Emperor and all of his followers, sycophants, and media-enablers cheer.
We believe Hillary Clinton is the Princess Leia/Queen Amidala of our time, and that ultimately she will rise up as a figure to lead America when the nation needs her most…to usurp her own usurper in 2012 and stop the madness overtaking this country from destroying us all. Clinton works hard every day behind the scenes to do everything humanly possible to keep this administration and the radicals who lead it from enacting their full true vision. She is the lone grown-up at a table with spoiled, arrogant children. We believe she, former President Clinton, and her loyalists are doing all they can to plot against Dr. Utopia and take the nomination from him in 2012. The Clintons love this country, believe in it, and have devoted their lives to its protection. They have never encouraged a cult of personality around themselves, and would never support the moves the Utopia Administration uses to circumvent democracy and install its lunacy.
Hillary Clinton, we believe, is doing all she can from within the administration to prevent as much dangerous idiocy from happening as possible.
And outside the administration, it is clear to us that WOMEN are what’s needed to stop Dr. Utopia’s power grab — just as the most vital members of the Star Wars films were female, too, and the ones who really stopped Palpatine and his delusional Empire in the end. We’re all children of the 80s around here, who grew up with Carrie Fisher blasting storm troopers as Imperial Senator cum Rebel Leader…and later saw Natalie Portman play her mother, doing the same to expend all her own energy to stop the Empire from ever forming.
Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann have emerged as two female forces on the right of the aisle who are our great hopes for stopping Dr. Utopia and saving our Liberty.
Add Michelle Malkin, columnist and blogger to that list, with Tammy Bruce on the air as well. And Ann Coulter has never been more right about things in her whole life.
In 2012, the only people able to rise above the media adulation for the effeminate, biracial, socialist current president will be women.
Women are Utopia’s Achilles (and Jimmy Choo) heel.
Republicans need to stop attacking Hillary Clinton and her female loyalists — as everyone on Team Hillary has the nation’s best interests at heart, like Republicans in this case. In the future, we’re sure we’ll all be on opposite sides again, but for the moment, with our Liberty imperiled, friends of Hillary and friends of Sarah and others are all mutual friends indeed.
The same is true for moderate Dems and Independents: spare Sarah Palin from any attack, stand with her and others like her, and collectively we will bring Dr. Utopia and his media machine down.
The thunderous applause for this madness are manufactured at 30 Rockefeller Center and CNN HQ in Atlanta.
The resistance movement to socialism and utopiaism is grassroots and being grown daily across the country.
When we see Amidala steeled in her convictions and ready to fight for Liberty, or remember Leia doing the same in her time, we see clearly that the next three years of our own life will be invested in doing all that we can as private citizens to stand up for Liberty, for our freedom, for our rights as Americans as the lunatics of the Left do everything they can to permanently install Dr. Utopia and his cult of personality in our lives.
We must all resist this.
We must stand with the strong women who can lead us.
We must do everything we can on both sides of the aisle, within and from outside the administration, to make sure Dr. Utopia is invalidated as a one-term, Cartereseque president and that his agenda collapses around him.
The weeks and months ahead are all about how to effective do that, but the sense we have now is that the only person who can defeat Utopia is a woman, be she Hillary or Sarah.
Those are two powerful forces we can all spend the next three years building up…so whichever one of them rises to the challenge, she’ll have an unprecedented army and bipartisan coalition of resistance on her side.

And Sarah Palin is Mara Jade ….. angry at those who did this to her beloved country and ready to battle to the death for it.
November 8, 2009 at 3:44 pm
HillBuzz, you guys are the best! absolute best!
Go Sarah!!!
November 8, 2009 at 3:47 pm
One thing for certain – anyone Dr. Utopia supports for election in 2010 is NOT getting my vote.
November 8, 2009 at 3:53 pm
yep… and I am a veryyy recent ex-democrat, now independent. my party has completley been hijacked by radical america-loathing lunatics.
Anyone who opposes this chit of a rationcare plan, and cap-n-tax gets my votes and campaign $$!
These nuts have overreached sooooo much and living in their deluded world that people are just going to sit and do nothing. The WTF-backlash is building up massively.

Real classy of Dr. U referring to “tea bag anti-american extremists.” Some uniter.

Did any of them actually read this bill?
November 8, 2009 at 4:20 pm
NO! It will cose us trillions and they voted on it without even reading it!
November 8, 2009 at 4:41 pm
MORONS!!
November 8, 2009 at 6:54 pm
Now I thought coverage for abortion wasn’t in the bill. Isn’t that POTUS told us the night he LIED about illegal immigrants coverage.
Then why was an amendment attached stripping the abortion language that supposedly wasn’t there?
I am so sick of this group I will never vote for Dr. U
November 8, 2009 at 4:23 pm
Fabulous post, Hillbuzz.
Women really are what’s needed right now because things in the universe or the galaxy or whatever are horribly out of balance. I don’t care much about political stripes anymore, I just want to see some more of that heart and soul that women bring to the table. I cheer for Bachmann, I cheer for Olympia Snowe, I don’t even care what side of the spectrum they are on, each one of them brings some much need energy to the table.
November 8, 2009 at 5:32 pm
Sorry but I am not on the “women will make it all better” bandwagon. It was Nancy Pelosi who brought us this bill AND the Stupak amendment limiting women’s access to abortion. How many of the women in the House voted for this piece of shit? And how about all the women’s groups who sold out Hillary?
November 8, 2009 at 6:55 pm
Barbara Boxer is another one that is too full of herself.
November 8, 2009 at 7:01 pm
I agree the bill is a piece of crap. I do have a problem with abortion being paid for with tax dollars though. Medicaid doesn’t currently cover it anyway, so I don’t quite understand the outrage of banning the payments in this bill as it’s how it is now. It is more than heart breaking to right to life folks to have their hard earned dollars spent to end a life.
It’s a tough issue to say the least.

A week or so ago the Hillboyz mentioned that they are firmly for Meg Whitman. Because I value their opinion … and I live in the once great State of California … I made it a point to tune in to a two-hour interview she gave on the top- rated afternoon talk radio show in L.A. Sad to say, I was a good deal less than impressed with Ms. Whitman. She was extremely ill-at-lease, ill-prepared, spoke in platitudes and repeated herself endlessly. She had four talking points and no matter where the interview went, she came back to the same points again and again. Basically her message was: taxes bad, jobs good. Well there’s a ground-breaking tidbit of news. Meg’s got a LOT of work to do over the next 10.5 months, otherwise she’s blowing her kids’ inheritance recklessly. She is NOT ready for prime time … the male CA career pols will have her for lunch.

you’re absolutely correct, robert c. i only meant that, thus far, all of her announced opponents are male. nothing more.
so much for the e.e. cummings vibe.

That is Hillary Clinton. A queen who is playing a Senator.
November 8, 2009 at 6:54 pm
Last night I watched “THE Vote” on CSpan. Using your Star Wars analogy, it looked like the Cantina scene from the first Star Wars epic. What an odd looking assemblage. A Wookie would be too “glam” and classy for that bunch.
Politics were played…and we, as a Country, were played. There is a great out cry from women today about the Stupak Amendment…but I see it as political cover for both sides. The Republicans can say “they did all they could” (and maybe they did); and the Democrats can “edit” it out in Committee (a promise made? Because where is NOW or NARAL today? Could it be they don’t have weekend spokespersons on call (Obama economy?))
Why do I get the sinking feeling that “this” was all so neatly planned for late last night?
On the Zodie thread I mentioned Hillary, in Berlin for the 20th Anniversary of the Fallbof the Berlin Wall. Boyz, she looked lovely in black with pearls. Relaxed and wonderfully diplomatic representing our Country.
I share your opinion (and have posted similar sentiments before). IMHO, SoS Clinton is working within the Department of State, her finger in the dike, preventing the flood of radical foreign policy the Obama wants to follow. BUT I fear she needs to make a move…and soon. The sleeping American giant is awakening…she needs to cut bait from The Won and go Fish for herself. Stay too long, and she risks carrying the stench of a Rahm Emmanuel mass mailing.

What a fun thread, and great analogy…I couldn’t help it…

I’m a Star Wars wonk, and I remember using this scene to clobber GWB with. I’m convinced now, it’s not the President, it’s the system. change :)

Sorry, guys, I’m off the Palin train: http://dyn.politico.com/printstory.cfm?uuid=CF98B813-18FE-70B2-A8EF6866E94A7EDE:
“WEST ALLIS, Wis. – Sarah Palin rallied thousands of abortion opponents Friday night with a a stark warning that the same philosophy that allows abortion rights could soon be invoked to allow the government to cut off health care for the elderly or children with special needs.
“Speaking to a fund-raising banquet of Wisconsin Right to Life, the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee asserted that if policy-makers don’t believe a child in the womb is valuable, then ‘perhaps the same mind-set applies to other persons.’”
I don’t care what her personal beliefs are, but she’s organizing the antiabortionists. I mean, how would or will you feel if and when she organizes against gay rights? Still down with her? Or are they two different things to you?
Sincerely curious.
November 8, 2009 at 11:25 pm
I think she was more specifically concerned with abortion being paid for by taxpayers as will be the case if Obamacare is enacted..
She is anti-abortion; however, I do not believe she would ban abortion. She does think it is wrong and would encourage a woman not to have an abortion; however, as long as a woman chooses abortion and as long as it is paid for in any other way than using taxpayer dollars…that is the big beef right now…taxpayer dollars to pay for abortion…
I don’t think she is organizing anyone. I think she was invited to speak … and she did..I don’t believe she is organizing anti-gay believers either..and I am not sure it is the same thing.
November 9, 2009 at 8:40 am
What really ironic, is that the stupak amendment doesn’t just ban paying for abortion even if you have private insurance, it opens the door for the Gov to ration care for other people, too. Now the gov has to right to regulate who gets what medical care.
People get all caught up in the emotionalism of abortion rights because we’ve fought so long and hard for them, but in reality what we want, always, is a culture of life coming from the government. In China you have all the abortion rights you could possibly want, in fact, they’ll mandate you have abortions, but that’s not freedom or choice. As difficult as it is, I’d rather have Palin and her respect for human life making our decisions, then Rahm Emmanuel’s brother who is prochoice, he just also happens to believe in snuffing old people and forcing unmarried women to abort.
November 9, 2009 at 11:01 am
hear hear.
November 9, 2009 at 9:49 am
Her position on gay rights is closer to Cheney’s than to slime bucket Obama’s.
November 8, 2009 at 11:25 pm
P.S. No offense to Hillbuzz, but I absolutely hate that comments are not posting right away..
