Nien Numb, who blows up the second Death Star, is also modeled to look like a Vietnamese individual.'

BRUH do you have any idea how fucking offensive that sounds? Also, his name is Nien Nunb, not Numb.

The line in Episode III, "So this is how democracy dies.. with thunderous applause," is a direct reference to the Bush Administration.

She doesn't say "Democracy," she says "Liberty," for one. For two...in what way is that a 'direct' reference to the Bush Administration?

Either way, Georgie-Boy is 100% anti-Republican.

The political messaging within the movie itself is very much anti-evil, not anti-Republican (inb4 somebody who thinks they're more clever than they are comes in with a "what's the difference lol"). Pro-Democracy, not anti-conservative. If George Lucas thought he was making a movie to criticize Republicans in particular, then he utterly failed. In catastrophic fashion. Because what he made was a space adventure series with famously black-and-white morality, where you're either good or evil, and it flips all-or-nothing like a binary switch.
