"I don’t give a goddamn," Bush retorted. "I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way."

"Mr. President," one aide in the meeting said. "There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution."

Is Bush a Sith Lord? by Paul Craig Roberts

Is Bush a Sith Lord? by Paul Craig Roberts: "In a moment of triumph, Palpatine tells the Senate: 'In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society.' The senators respond with sustained cheering and applause. Padme says, 'So this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause.'"

Sure, I am a little late for the 30th anniversary of Star Wars, but the comment still stands as a good reflection of society.
