The script of Star Wars was influenced by writer, mythologist, Joseph Campbell. One of the tenements ascribed to Campbell’s philosophy is; life is myth, myth is life.
The hero in our story is the American People, US. Our, “Obi-Wan Kenobi, ”is Robert Muller.
In Star Wars the call to action to Luke was about something he is not interested in, save the galaxy, he has chores to do. In our myth the evil empire is Russia, our Darth Vader is, Donald Trump. Our Congress has other chores?
As in the last reel of Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi was killed in in his human form, by Darth Vader, today Robert Muller clearly stated, today, this is as far as he goes. He is, not unlike Moses, after leading his people to the promised land, he can go no further.
Muller, like Obi-Wan Kenobi who left Luke with the physical and spiritual tools to defeat the Empire, the most important of those tools were leadership and belief. Muller has left those tool to Congress.
Muller’s statement, today was a road map to shaming this pretend despot of a president. He told us that we are on the right path, the just path.
Partisans don’t agree on Mueller’s conclusion that points, pretty clearly, at Trumps guilt on obstruction. Responses to a recent poll where people stand on obstuctio are pretty much on party lines. What a shock!
A table, below, posted on fivethirtyeight.com, “Partisans don’t agree on what Mueller’s report said” shows that as of April of 2019, 81% of Democrats agree Trump obstructed justice, as did 13% of the Republicans polled. I don’t see the danger in starting the impeachment process. The “No’s” Are always going to be lost. face it.
Trust the force. Impeach, NOW!
