I'm in the UK and have no need of this 'Obamacare' of which you speak. On the NHS I could get a new spine in at least 6-8 weeks! I'd get one like Doctor Octopus's with all those cyberarms coming out of it, that would be cool.
Most of those are pretty close, except for the Palin one. I may not love Dany, but she's far better than Palin.
People like Anonymous have no clue except to spout what they've been brainwashed with. I've actually had to have surgery under a couple different socialist medicine states (Iceland, England) and one hardline one (China) and I thought the service was excellent.
I dunno, Dany's motives may have been good but she has killed a lot of people along the way and thrown the balance of power out of joint across most of the world. She's probably been more devastating to Martinworld than Palin would have been to the real one [/highly arguable].
I could be wrong, but I always thought the whole point of Dany's storyline is that she's taking the time to learn how to rule justly, and maybe even provide a modernist alternative to the backwards monarchy with which Westeros has been saddled. I mean, I don't know if Dany's planning to single-handedly invent democracy or whatever, but it would fit, thematically. (She's going to have to find something to generate an heir, at least, since she can't have kids.)
Palin probably would have married Xaro, scored his ships, and then given up halfway through the invasion of Westeros for a lucrative job on the White Walker network.
The idea of Sarah Palin as Daenerys gives me a chill down my spine.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you should get a new spine.
ReplyDeleteThough you may have to wait a while with Obamacare

Two words..."bloody brilliant" - well done

ReplyDeleteHodor, HODOR!
ReplyDeleteHodor! Oh man, that's perfect. Hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI think Cersei is more Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteHow about giving credit where it's due. http://www.reddit.com/r/gameofthrones/comments/srwmz/the_war_of_five_kings/
ReplyDeleteMan, what did Danys and Renly do to piss Sam Sykes off? :P
ReplyDeleteThe Robb-Obama and Tyrion-Colbert ones are accurate.
Excellent, I couldn't find the original source. Thanks for letting me know.
ReplyDeleteEPIC!!!
ReplyDeleteGood ol' Hodor seems a little too generous, particularily in a pants department. I see Bush as more of a Theon Greyjoy character...
ReplyDeleteLove the last two :D
