John McCain and the Tea Party: Lord of the TARP versus American Hobbits
The Washington Times ^ | 2011-07-28 | Gabriella Hoffman

SAN DIEGO, July 27, 2011—As debt talks heat up in Washington, D.C., tensions continue to unfurl between the Republican establishment and Tea Party Movement.

To motion support for the Boehner plan, the Speaker of the House called out fellow Republicans and told them, “Get your [expletive] in line.”

Additionally, comfortable and equally seasoned politicians like Senator John McCain (R-AZ) have expressed their dismay in the Tea Party Movement. Accordingly, McCain lashed out at conservatives on the Senate floor Wednesday and called them “tea party hobbits” for proposing a balanced budget amendment.

Does this mean war? You betcha.

It is time to commence RINO (Republican in Name Only) hunting season.

Perhaps Grima Wormtongue is hoping Sauron will pick him for VP next time around.

That’s it! Who wants to join me in the “Exsanguinated Turnip Party”? The slogan: Squeezed enough already. Hobbits are always welcome as long as they have been bled dry with too many taxes, have no tolerance for oppressive gubmint, and want to return to Constitutional values. I hate to think what “Turnip Bag” or “Turnip Bagging” may have to do with sexual proclivities....but I’m sure Janeane Garofalo will let us know soon enough.

Actually, McCain seems to be casting himself as Saruman (the only character in LOTR who sneers at hobbits).

Actually, the more I think about it the more uncanny the fit.

In fairness, McCain was only reading from a Wall Street Journal article, it is they who are calling us ‘hobbits’

Since 2000 I have believed that lord McCain always relied on others to do his speeches... well except when he throws a foul mouth temper tantrum.

McCain’s ties to Soros are very significant since we know McCain is corrupt and willing to use his office illegally to line his own pockets.

Obama one in 08 because the voters were given a choice between Obama and Obama-Lite. I am glad Obama won that election. If Obama-Lite(McCain) had won we would be in nearly as bad shape but the Republicans would be getting the blame for it.
