here's the petition.

 

http://mashable.com/2012/12/04/white-house-death-star/

 

Here's a story about it. The bad news is since it's a .gov website you gotta register first. I imagine without requilriing registerments they'd get the votes easy. Anyway if it gets enough votes then that means they would have to talk about building a death star. I'd like to watch that on CSPAN.

A new Star Wars Project.

As a kid I used to hate the Star Wars Project because I'd hear the news anchors on TV say, "Star Wars" I'd get all excited thinking it was going to be about new movies or something.

Hah.

I've signed quite a few petitions on that site; and it's really a cool site, but, in the end, once you get the signatures the usual response is "Thanks, but here's why we won't be doing this." or "Thanks, but here's what we're already doing that we're saying is similar to what you want but really isn't" or "Thanks, but here's what's already on the books that's kinda like that."

Irregardless, I signed.

They will build it, put everyone from Texas on it, and then blow it up.

Ah yes, Micah and the 34 thousand rednecks who support him.  The remaining 26 million of us (including the Governor) are sorry he sullied the state.

It's actually sad that taxpayers' money goes to support jokes like this on government's website.

I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

I think what Frink is trying to say is that the Politcal Thread Replicator meme is only truly activated when people start posting huge walls of interlocking quotes.

Uh-huh. Because that's always how it goes: you just can't control your temper in these threats.

I haven't read your post but I felt compelled to disagree with you quoting some pie charts and graphs published on someone else's blog linking to an obscure website that I think proves I'm right but I won't bother to indicate that there is any uncertainty on my side.

I wish that I could just wish my feelings away...but I can't.  Wishful wishing can only lead to wishes wished for in futile wishfulness, which is not what I wish to wish for.

Nobody has posted a picture of ice-cream and got into some painfully drawn out (on all sides) OCD nerd feud yet.

If the White House wouldn't address the various petitions promoting asking for secession, I doubt they'll give any attention to the Death Star.

Stay out, Tyrphanax! It's another politics thread!
