Is Obama’s Attorney General Secret Space Pirate?

by Ken Layne  

But now ya treating me like a scruffy nerf herder ....
The new Attorney General for President Hopesalot is Eric Holder, who was the deputy AG back when Bill Clinton was doing whatever slimy stuff, etc., this is what you get, but wait! Doesn’t this character look exactly like a convicted space monster from the early 1980s? Newsweek reporter Michael Isikoff suggests Holder is actually a smuggler who ran spice out of Bill Clinton’s Mena Airport in Arkansas.

Only if Eric has a AAG named Chewie.

I wondered why I am craving Colt 45. I thought it was all the discussion of Shiner Bock on the previous thread…

“Works every time.”

TGY November 18, 2008 at 4:27 pm

Hey, he went more-or-less legit in Cloud City, AZ.

superfecta November 18, 2008 at 4:29 pm

Dammit, I wanted to say ‘works every time’ first.

At least he hasn’t told us this deal is getting worse all the time.

carrythezero November 18, 2008 at 4:30 pm

Mmmmmm Colt 45 !

superfecta November 18, 2008 at 4:31 pm

Is it too geeky to suggest that someone must have told Obama about his little maneuver at the Battle of Tanaab?

magic titty November 18, 2008 at 4:31 pm

I’m a bit tired of these Clinton-era re-treads…
Anyway, is Alberto Gonzalez going to be deported now?

NoWireHangers November 18, 2008 at 4:32 pm

Perfect side-by-side, Ken.

I’d still hit it.

Godot November 18, 2008 at 4:34 pm

[re=180111]superfecta[/re]: Bill Clinton just said he was a fair lawyer, he didn’t think they were looking for someone to lead this crazy thing.

Serolf Divad November 18, 2008 at 4:37 pm

Don’t worry, he’s just made a deal that will keep the empire off our backs forever.

Cogito Ergo Bibo November 18, 2008 at 4:37 pm

If this means that all legal cases will be settled by laser swords and robots, I’m SO in!

Cape Clod November 18, 2008 at 4:38 pm

I’m thinking he looks more like the nattily dressed Det. Harris from the “Barney Miller” show.

ReelectTilden November 18, 2008 at 4:42 pm

[re=180103]Kev-O-Tron[/re]: Damn beat me to it. I opened this link for the specific purpose of making a Colt .45 reference.

O'Rourke November 18, 2008 at 4:42 pm

He’s got a lotta nerve coming back here after what he pulled.

Ken Layne November 18, 2008 at 4:44 pm

[re=180131]Cape Clod[/re]: It is actually true, but wouldn’t provide nearly as many nerd ESB comments.

null November 18, 2008 at 4:44 pm

It’s a trap!

marioninnyc November 18, 2008 at 4:48 pm

Another former Clintonista? Did Colbert already coin “changiness”?

eatsshootsleaves November 18, 2008 at 4:50 pm

He’s responsible now, the price you pay for being successful.

Scrodd November 18, 2008 at 4:57 pm

HA! I was the first person to mention this! Wonkette owes me money, or a hooker!

CivicHoliday November 18, 2008 at 5:03 pm

He may have betrayed us once, rebel nation (read: Mark Rich), but he can now be trusted and will help lead us to a bright new empire-free future, led by Barack Obamawalker.

Keram2 November 18, 2008 at 5:05 pm

Someone must’ve told Barry about his little maneuver at the Battle of Taanab.

MarieDeGournay November 18, 2008 at 5:08 pm

I can see it now! Eric Holder flying the Millenium Falcon out of the exploding Congressional Dome yelling, “YEEEEEEHAAAAA!” FTW

Beer4Prez November 18, 2008 at 5:08 pm

Obama’s smart. You nominate a bunch of Clintonites to appease the woman-folk/old Dems, Then they fail to successfully complete the confirmation process because of how bad and shady the Clinton’s were, and BAM! In comes the CHANGE.

bitchincamaro November 18, 2008 at 5:08 pm

[re=180159]marioninnyc[/re]: +1!

SayItWithWookies November 18, 2008 at 5:15 pm

So I guess I’m the only one who read the linked article? ‘Scuse me, I have to go wash the “sucker” off my forehead.

Numbat Dundee November 18, 2008 at 5:20 pm

And wasn’t the space pirate in the movie a sellout too? I vaguely recall that he made a Clintonesque deal to sell the good guy to Pizza the Hut or something.

pondscum November 18, 2008 at 5:25 pm

Once again I am very proud to say I have never seen any of these movies. Ya nerds!

S.Luggo November 18, 2008 at 5:32 pm

[re=180210]SayItWithWookies[/re]: The article came from Ken’s back issues of Penthouse. Whadya expect? Pulitzer material?

BTW, Seal, with two bullets in his head, did not die friendless. http://www.wethepeople.la/seal2.htm

Strangefellow November 18, 2008 at 5:34 pm

[re=180192]MarieDeGournay[/re]: Someone needs to turn that idea into a YouTube video immediately.

Borat November 18, 2008 at 5:38 pm

Now the guy on the right isn’t black enough. But the guy on the right is too black. Barry on the other hand is jussst right.

S.Luggo November 18, 2008 at 5:43 pm

I like his rich smile.

Borat November 18, 2008 at 5:44 pm

[re=180194]Beer4Prez[/re]: I’m tired of appeasing the old. The baby boomers had their Kennedy when they were like 18.

No more appeasing. I want Blood. Now!

Cape Clod November 18, 2008 at 5:44 pm

[re=180144]Ken Layne[/re]: Yeah, there’s that. Might spark some ‘Firefly’ comments, though.

bitchincamaro November 18, 2008 at 5:47 pm

Stuyvesant High grad; good enuf for me.

thundergirl November 18, 2008 at 5:50 pm

his wife is my ob/gyn–that makes me a viv, doesn’t it?

Team Arctic November 18, 2008 at 5:52 pm

I’m afraid his subpoena powers will be quite operational when the Republicans arrive.

sanantonerose November 18, 2008 at 6:48 pm

I hope Huggy Bear gets a plum post! In fact, the whole cast of I’m Gonna Git You, Sucka should serve in some official capacity.

psychedelicSludge November 18, 2008 at 6:49 pm

“… prominent Armenians you may have heard of: actor/writer Eric Bogosian, former Gov. of California George Deukmejian, and administrator of Bespin City Lando Calrissian.”

[re=180131]Cape Clod[/re]: Another vote for Ron Glass as Harris for the doppelganger. Heck, he’s more of a Venus Flytrap from WKRP than a Lando Kalrissian.

Crap, I didn’t have to look any of that up.

Da Derga November 18, 2008 at 7:10 pm

During his confirmation hearing, a senator had better ask him how many parsecs it took him to make the Kessel run. The American people will not settle for anything over five.

loganmo November 18, 2008 at 7:11 pm

Thanks Layne….that actually made my day.

glamourdammerung November 18, 2008 at 7:38 pm

Actually, I always thought of Lando as more of a space sex offender than space pirate. That molestache is pretty magnificent.

Snozberries November 18, 2008 at 7:58 pm

This is what Willis was talking about.

SwanSwanH November 18, 2008 at 8:57 pm

“How *you* doin’, Chewbacca?”

[re=180192]MarieDeGournay[/re]: With Joe Lieberman in the co-pilot chair, laughing nervously.

[re=180115]magic titty[/re]: Fuck that – I want him to begin writing up the impeachment proceedings.

I just want to remind you that you are all TERRIBLE NERDS.

MarieDeGournay November 19, 2008 at 3:15 am

[re=180688]Ken Layne[/re]: Thanks for reminding me when those movies were actually fun and bloated pieces of crap.

MarieDeGournay November 19, 2008 at 3:16 am

*not bloated pieces of crap (oops)

schvitzatura November 19, 2008 at 9:42 pm

At least one Bothan died to bring us this information.
