Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you.

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of Haliburton.

Who would have known that eight years of constant, vicious maliciousness on the part of the Presidential Administration would in fact make it harder to hold them accountable?

Darth Vader: No, Luke… I am your father!

Luke: No. It can’t be. That’s not true. That’s impossible!

Darth Vader: Search your feelings Luke… you know them
to be true.

Luke: NOOoooo!

Darth Vader: Yes, it is true… and you know what else?
You know that brass droid of yours?

Luke: Threepio?

Darth Vader: Yes… Threepio… I built him… when I was 7
years old.

Luke: No! … Wait, huh?

Darth Vader: Seven years old. And what have you done?
Look at yourself. No hand. No job. And you couldn’t even
levitate your own ship out of the swamp…

Luke: But… I destroyed your precious Death Star!

Darth Vader: But that was when you were 20! When I was
10, I single-handedly destroyed an entire Trade
Federation Droid Control ship!

Luke: Well, it’s not my fault…

Darth Vader: Oh, here we go… “Poor me… my father never
gave me what I wanted for my birthday… boo hoo, my
daddy’s the Dark Lord of the Sith… Nobody loved me…
waahhh wahhh!”

Luke: Shut up!

Darth Vader: You’re a slacker! By the time I was your age,
I had already exterminated the Jedi knights!

Luke: I used to race my T-16 through Beggar’s Canyon.

Darth Vader: Oh, for the love of the Emperor… 10 years
old, winner of the Boonta Eve Open… the only human to
ever fly a Pod Racer… right here baby!

Luke looks down the shaft. Takes a step towards it.

Darth Vader: I was wrong… You’re not my kid… I don’t
know whose you are, but you sure ain’t mine.

Luke takes a step off the platform, hesitates, then plunges
down the shaft. Darth Vader looks down after him.

Darth Vader: And get a haircut!

I was going to ask if the OP regretted the "lordvader" tag which has now led this thread down this silly path, but I see that the OP is feeding this himself. Carry on. And worry not, Mr. Cheney, whether the masses will rise up against you, because there's something good on TV.

intermod, there's not a lot more to say about what a piece of shit this guy is, really. He's a COMPLETE piece of shit. He's a TOTAL piece of shit. He's a REEKING pile of shit.

Etc.

So, I figured what the fuck, let's put a bunch of Star Wars quotes in.

You have failed me for the last time, Admiral.
