Re: Jedi are Completely Retarded Sometimes
Originally posted by EmperordmbOr the grand wisdom of the Council during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when pondering Dooku's words.
Obi-wan: "Should we look into what Dooku said about the Dark Lord controlling the Senate."
Yoda: "No! Lying Dooku is! Look into this deeper, we should not."
Outcome: Sidious ends up gathering a **** ton of political power, and the Great Jedi Purge happens. [/B]
In all fairness, the Jedi thought the Sith was controlling Palpatine the entire time, they couldn't have stopped him getting the political power without flat out arresting him...
Which would have given Palpatine a legitimate excuse to execute them all.
