I've been hearing little bits & pieces about Lucas being a pinko Leftist. Now there's proof. I was going to see Star Wars today or tomorrow- now, never.

Hadn't quite thought of it that way.
Did you guys expect anything less from Hollywood? And thanks to the Moveon.org dip****s for stirring the pot once again. Why can't a movie just be a movie?!
Quote: Alluding to Michael Moore's remarks about "Fahrenheit 9/11" at Cannes a year earlier, Mr. Lucas joked, "Maybe the film will waken people to the situation."
Apparently in all seriousness, though, he went on to say that he had first devised the "Star Wars" story during the Vietnam War. "The parallels between what we did in Vietnam and what we're doing in Iraq now are unbelievable," he told an appreciative audience.
Peter Sealey, a former marketing chief at Columbia Pictures, said the partisan tug of war over the new "Star Wars" episode seemed absurd, likening the political interpretations of it to a Rorschach test. But he said Mr. Lucas was probably savvy in adding sizzle and relevance to a movie that otherwise might have earned publicity only by its effectiveness as entertainment.
"He could've come out and said, 'That's ridiculous - this is the white hats and black hats of the 1950's in space,' and quashed it," said Mr. Sealey, who teaches entertainment marketing at the University of California, Berkeley. "Did he do that? No, and it was probably smart. If he can get 'Star Wars' brought into the debate over unilateralism and the Iraq war, it just brings a current spin to it. And I don't think it's going to rule people out." Unquote

One doesn't "read" the New York Times, one sits and contemplates the mantra...then sits back and nods in unison. "I am a sheep...I am a sheep..."
