(Not BBV) 'One ring to rule them all' -- anyone know who wrote this?
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 02:49 AM by BevHarris
I know who wrote this speech for Sauron, the ultimate evildoer in The Lord of the Rings:

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
-- J.R.R. Tolkein

I'm curious as to who the speechwriter was for this:

"We have one country, one Constitution,
and one future that binds us."
-- George W. Bush, hailing his "victory" Nov 3 2004

Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul,
ash nazg thrakatulûk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul.


Hmmm. Kinda creeps me out.

Bev

9. Destiny.
Funny thing, that. Can a man who is not master of his own house be master of his destiny? If not, then who rules his house?

Do we truly believe that these CRIMINALS are the best that humanity has to offer for itself? Apparently they believe it or, at least take the position that, since they CAN get away with it, why the hell SHOULDN'T they?

11. I think he believes it
In my experience there is NO ONE more tunnel-visioned than a zealot with a Christ Complex.

5. They tried to co-opt LOTR ever since the 2001 premier
of the movie trilogy. It's sick, and Tolkein is rolling over in his grave!

They're tainting a beautiful story....and a liberal story at that.

7. Ah've earned capital. And I'm gonna spend it. That's my style.
yes indeed it is, you miserable quivering piece of shit.

this guy is going to attempt on the American people what he said he would do to Kerry. He will put his foot on our throats and keep it there.

I DARE HIM! I'm ready for him. He is Satan. He is the Antichrist. He is the ultimate traitor to our American values....and he will go down. WE MUST BE THRILLED TO VICTORY and force ourselves to keep working, screaming, scraping.

WE MUST DO SO NOW. AT THIS MOMENT. AND CONTINUALLY.
