Here's a meme to get the blood flowing
Wrasslin' devotee Sheila O'Malley is starting a game combining two of our favorite themes: Star Wars and the Amerikan Revolution.
Here are my nominations for her game:
Obi Wan Kenobi------John Locke
Luke-------------------Thomas Jefferson (particularly when he's getting very self-righteous)
Han Solo--------------Alexander Hamilton
R2D2-------------------James Madison
Chewbacca-----------Ben Franklin (except in this version, Chewie nails Leah)
Yoda-------------------John Adams
Princess Leah----------Mercy Otis Warren
Wedge-----------------Lafayette
C3PO-------------------James Monroe
The Emperor----------George III
The Jawas-------------The Hessians
Admiral Ackbar-------Admiral de Grasse (with a strong family resemblance)
and, of course
Darth Vader-----------Dick Cheney, immortal font of evil that he is!
Dare we go for the bonus round---pre Civil War politics through the lens of Battlestar Galactica?
The Cylon King--------John Calhoun
umm, maybe not.

Please please help me find a place for Patrick Henry, my favorite rebel firebrand.
