OBAMA MIXES STAR WARS AND STAR TREK METAPHORS. HE SHOULD BE IMPEACHED FOR THIS!!!!

[^_^ 5,021]

During his news conference Friday, Obama spoke of achieving a “Jedi mind meld.” That phrase, which he uttered during extemporaneous (read: no prompter or script) remarks during the question-and-answer portion of the newser, appears to combine elements from two distinct sci-fi worlds.

A “Jedi mind trick” is a power exercised by Jedi Knights in “Star Wars,” usually accomplished by verbal ma­nipu­la­tion (Famous example: “These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.”)

But “mind meld” is a phenomenon from “Star Trek.” It’s a method of communication used among Vulcans, like Spock.

Obama’s mash-up of the two is certain to provoke outcry among the fervent fans of each franchise.

Sounds like something they would do. Ignore the important news and fixate on nothing.
