The death of Qui-Gon Jinn is/was what started the down fall. Obi-wan wasn't ready.

Funningly enough, I've been having the same argument with at co-worker these past couple of days. Even compared the Republic & Jedis to Iran.

Can you give me an example of a Jedi master that wasn't terrible?
Qui-Gon Jinn, Dooku.
Qui-Gon got bitchslapped by the wussy Darth Maul.  Dooku became Tyrannus, and thus had problems as a Jedi.

Mace Windu was kicking ass till that pansy emo Anakin stepped in.
Palpatine was laying down for him.  The whole point of that little act was to get Anakin to cross the point of no return.  As he said, he has 'unlimited power'.  As soon as Anakin had fully betrayed the Jedi, the intensity of Palpatine's lightning increased manyfold, which tells me that he could have killed Windu at any time.

That was an amazing lightsaber battle.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Right, but Qui-Gon and Dooku saw that corruption and epic Jedi failure and wanted to make steps to improve it and the Republic as a whole.  Alas, Qui-Gon was killed and Dooku bet on his ability to work the sith to his own ends which backfired and dragged him down and eventually left him as bait to taunt Anakin.
