Great Leaders Think A Like

A few weeks ago, I spent a Saturday evening with some friends watching Return of the Jedi special edition. I say special edition because we skipped most scenes that didn't have Admiral Akbar in them. It's all about Admiral Akbar and his clear head in the face of nearly insurmountable odds.

Quote of the Day

Former US Attorney David Iglesias brought his nerd game to The Daily Show the other day. Iglesias was one of the US attorneys that was appointed by the Bush administration then later fired for not pursuing politically motivated cases.


Stewart: Is the greatest disappointment for you that you were a guy who believed in what they're doing...do you feel betrayed?

Iglesias: To use a Star War's kind of image, I thought I was working with the Jedi Knights and I was working for the Sith Lords.

Audience: GASP, pause, laughter.
