Obama Shows Off Geek Light Saber Skills image
Obama has already proven that’s he’s about 15 times geekier than any previous President. He’s taken pictures next to a Superman statue. He loves his Blackberry more than his children. He has a masterful handle on social networking, and you know what? For good measure, I’m going to throw in the fact that he called Kanye West a jackass too. It’s not really a geeky attribute, but I think geeks can get down with that.

Now to add to his already impressive repertoire, The Huffington Post has caught Obama doing the geekiest thing that a geek can possibly do: fight with a light saber. Now this may not be as geeky as that kid who recorded himself doing so in his garage and became an internet sensation, but it’s pretty close.

I imagine Republicans will find a way to use this to their benefit. Perhaps they’ll start a Stephen Colbert-like Photoshop contest and ask fellow Republicans to turn Obama into Vader. Or maybe they’ll argue that he was threatening an Olympian with a dangerous weapon. Or maybe they’ll use this as proof that he’s not an American citizen. “Where else would have gotten that technology!?” Fail.
