Rising Hegemon
There's one hell of a dragon egg hidden in Game of Thrones season one. Turns out one of the many heads on a spike decorating King's Landing belonged to ex-president George Bush. If you keep your eyes peeled when King Joffrey takes Sansa Stark to gaze upon the spiked head of her dead father around 12 minutes in, you'll notice that one of the heads looks slightly familiar. Show creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss explained in their DVD commentary (from Season 1, episode 10) that the decapitated head is actually George Bush. This was discovered by redditor SidIncognito.
"The last head on the left is George Bush. George Bush's head appears in a couple of beheading scenes. It's not a choice, it's not a political statement. We just had to use whatever head we had around."
Obviously, this is Obama's fault. Now, if you want to make completely inappropriate political statements you do this:
It's also thematically wrong. Bush would be more Lannister or Greyjoy than Stark.

I'd say he's a Lannister. Rich daddy,spoiled brat,fake warrior. The Greyjoys seem to at least be actual hard asses.
Cheney would have to be a Targaryen.
Killing for fun, burning everything in sight.
butbutbut georgee had a more lifeless aspect.
AW DAMN. i didn't get to enjoy that.
At last, George W in a position he can handle without farking up.
I have to admit that picture makes me smile every time I see. it. I only wish it were real.
You shoot with the heads you have not the heads you might want or wish to have at a later time.
You would think in a show with this budget and emphasis on T&A they would have insisted on good head......
if it had been cheeney i guess it woulda been politics.
