Darth Cheney

Hillary Clinton drew laughter at a recent fundraiser when she likened Dick Cheney to Darth Vader.

"You can always tell when the Republicans are getting restless, because the Vice President's motorcade pulls into the Capitol, and Darth Vader emerges," Clinton quipped. (Watch video)

Is Dick Cheney actually a Sith Lord? You can view the pictorial evidence here, here, here, and here.

Speaking of Hillary Clinton's attempts to be funny, The Daily Show covered her recent rounds of the Sunday talk shows and the creepy delayed laughter she emitted.

Late-Night Laughs
"Yesterday at a campaign fundraiser, Hillary Clinton criticized Vice President Cheney and called him 'Darth Vader.' Cheney denied it and said, 'Darth Vader is evil, half-machine and always wears a cape. And I don't own a cape.'" --Conan O'Brien

"Hillary called Dick Cheney Darth Vader, which is very unfair, because Darth Vader would have caught bin Laden by now." --Bill Maher
