Careful there.

Parodies are only exempt from the copyright laws regarding the thing they are parodying. So using zelda characters to make fun of zelda is fine. Using zelda characters to make fun of the leadership of the democratic party, is not fine.

Spoiler, to hopefully forstall the inevitable political flamewar:
Using the words of the leadership of the democratic party to make fun of the leadership of the democratic party is perfectly fine, if perhaps a little _too_ easy. ;-P

Yeah... the only thing easier would be to make fun of the republicans :P Actually, PyTom and my management of the board might be the biggest example of bipartisan cooperation in the United States right now :shock:
