While talking about the important (and very dull) topic of the looming sequester on Friday, President Barack Obama mixed his sci-fi metaphors, referring to a "Jedi mind meld."
The internet was not amused.
RESPONDED, THEY DID: The White House tweeted from its official Twitter account:
We must bring balance to the Force. #Sequester #JediMindMeld twitter.com/whitehouse/sta…

They also seem to created the URL whitehouse.gov/jedimindmeld which takes you to The President's Plan on the sequester.
