You’ll have to watch this to believe it.
In a harsh criticism of House Republicans and think tanks critical of Rep. John Boehner’s plan to raise the debt limit, the 2008 Republican Presidential nominee, who chose Tea Party darling Sarah Palin for VP, said about this about a faction of his own party:
Granted, Sen. McCain was quoting a Wall Street Journal opinion piece this morning when he recited this passage:
“The Republican House that failed to raise the debt ceiling would somehow escape all blame. Then Democrats would have no choice but to pass a balanced-budget amendment and reform entitlements, and the tea-party Hobbits could return to Middle Earth having defeated Mordor.
This is the kind of crack political thinking that turned Sharron Angle and Christine O’Donnell into GOP Senate nominees.”
McCain’s eruption was the product of his frustration with “fellow” conservatives who are still holding out for a balanced budget amendment as part of any compromise on the debt ceiling. McCain accused those pushing for the amendment as “deceiving” America into believing such a thing can pass the Senate:
Is this McCain’s strategy to build a coalition with those in his own party to get a plan actually done? Is this how he thinks he can sway support for Boehner’s plan?

hehehe No, not at all.
McCain as Wormtongue is fine by me. But, he is a traitor in the sense of Sauromon.
What a jerk
Ah, but it was the Hobbits who saved their world. Nice analogy, but perhaps Mr. McCain should have studied up a bit more on Tolkien’s trilogy before trying to insult a large section of the American people by calling them heroes....
“Will Sarah Palin defend him Now?”
I’ve been pushing that question out of mind. Agree with you. I sure hope not. But it’s bigger than that now. Even so, it’s likely that Sarahwise will get it right.
Using one of his powerful magic spells
Has turned all the Tea Party members into Hobbits
Oh my !
Why on Earth would he do that ?
Could he be after all our gold, silver and treasures ?
Perhaps he wants our only magic scroll ?
I guess I’m a hobbit.
So I will be a proud hobbit.
john mccain... you are a political whore... you have always been a political whore. It seems that you have just become a slut for the left... you have even quit charging the left for your services. I wish that the NVA had just kept your sorry ass.

There was a point when I almost didn't vote for McCain in 2008. "Screw it," I thought. "Let Obama win and take the blame for what's going to happen, rather than let Mad Dog McCain run us aground and let conservatives take the hit."
In the end, I couldn't not vote, and voting for Obama wasn't an option, even to make a juvenile point. Still, it does my heart some good to know that McCain lost.
McCain is a vindictive old pr*ck.
He is going to spend the rest of his life trying to cause damage to the TEA party as revenge for making him spend so much money to keep his AZ seat.
He is more concerned about revenge for that, than he was about beating Obama (which he never wanted to do anyhow).
I strongly doubt Sarah will defend McLame now. In fact, she’ll probably use this to make a clean break from her previous association with him.
Sarah, as most everyone agrees, had to support the Wormtongue during his reelection bid. It would have been churlish in the extreme not to after he chose her as his running mate in 2008.
But that bill is PAID and done. No more!
Remember, this is the man who was on the ballot in 2008, running against Obama.
Does anyone even have to ask *WHY* Obama won, when this was the other choice?!?

Then I am Godzilla, smasher of Tokyo and “spew”er of radioactive fire-breath.
I will wade into Washington and purify it with my righteous flames. Then roar and squonk and wade back into the ocean to sleep until the urge to destroy Tokyo is reawoken.
At least he will stop pretending to be a conservative now.
We are the hobbits who have to throw the leftists’ “precious” into Mount Doom!!
History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men Godzilla
Go, go Godzilla!

Sounds like a third party might be a real alternative, as long as 0bama doesn’t get reelected. TEA PARTY!
Thank you! I was wracking my brain to figure out which character fit.
Juan McWormtongue! Slimey, worthless, backstabbing and grovelling at the feet of all for any nmorsel.
