On the February 16, 2006 episode, Jon Stewart mocked the Republican Party's decision to edit scenes from A New Hope to make a promotional movie depicting themselves as fighting against "an evil Democrat Empire," to which Stewart replied, "You control the White House, both houses of Congress, the Supreme Court - you're not rag-tag rebels fighting against the Empire, you are the Empire! Besides, Star Wars references are so lame..." In response, a hologram of Princess Leia appeared, repeating, "I know you masturbated to me in the Seventies."

On the January 20, 2009 episode that covered the inauguration of President Obama, Jon noted that former Vice-President Dick Cheney's temporary wheelchair (required due to a back injury when leaving) made him look like a supervillain. He stated the only way for him to look more evil would be to play the "Star Wars Imperial March" and pet a white cat (a reference to James Bond's nemesis Ernst Stavro Blofeld). In the following day's episode, a clip was edited to show Cheney in his wheelchair, passing Obama's presidential motorcade, with the Imperial March playing. Cheney in his wheelchair appeared again the following day, with the Imperial March yet again accompanying. Later, Jon said that Cheney "was this" and showed a clip from The Empire Strikes Back in which Vader says "If you only knew the power of the dark side." New Vice-President Joe Biden, meanwhile, is illustrated with a clip of Dark Helmet from Spaceballs, removing his mask as he exclaims, "I can't breathe in this thing!"

Correspondent Matt Walsh was doing a piece on Osama Bin Laden's mountain fortress and Stewart asked him if there were any weaknesses. Walsh replied that there was a small thermal exhaust port just above the main port. The graphic changed from USA Today's graphic of the fortress to that of the war room on Yavin as Walsh explained that a hit directly into the shaft would blow up the death star. Back at the desk, Stewart, said "Matt, that's impossible!" Walsh dead-pan replied, "It's not impossible, I used to bull's-eye Womp rats in my T-16 back home!"
