So, Wait. Does This Mean Rumsfeld Is The Dwarf With The Axe?

Ahh, election years. If the political ads don't make you want to remove your eyeballs with an olive fork, the talking points certainly will. Although, technically, even without your eyeballs, you could still hear the talking points, so it'd probably be in your best interest to puncture your eardrums, as well.

But I digress.

The good news is that, occasionally, you'll find a gem of a quote among all the crap. Like Senator Santorum angling for the "Dungeons and Dragons" vote:

"As the hobbits are going up Mount Doom, the Eye of Mordor is being drawn somewhere else," Santorum said, describing the tool the evil Lord Sauron used in search of the magical ring that would consolidate his power over Middle-earth.
-PA Sen. Rick Santorum, Uniontown Herald Standard

Wow. So, I guess we would be the hobbits in this scenario? And Lord Sauron would be... terror? No, wait... the hobbits are the troops and the eye is terror! And Bob Casey is Sauron!

In a... sleepy kind of way.

Maybe?

Either way, James Carville has to be Gollum, right?

I dunno, I was always more of a Star Wars fan.
