If we’re Hobbits that makes Juan McQueeg one of the many failed humans of Middle Earth always tempted by the One Ring.

If McManiac had been elected, the TEA Pary would never have formed.

I agree but for different reasons. If McCain would have won, the Tea Party Revolution would have never happened. Obama is a liberal and for the most parts admits it. McCain is a liberal but calls himself a Conservative Republician, liar.

Thanks to Obama winning in 08, the massive PANIC BUTTON that launched the Tea Party Revolution was pressed. If McCain would have won, it never would have happened.

Now we all agree that we did not get what we wanted this past week. But you have to agree, Obama did not get what he wanted, far from it. And we all got targets for the 2010 election in the House and Senate to primary and defeat.

Obama knows his re-election got allot harder becasue of this Debt debate. And it gets harder and harder every month when poor unemploment and economy numbers get published and the ones the month before get revised to even worse numbers.

The problem is that 0bama is causing dmagae that will take 50 years to repair whereas McCain would have probably done nothing which would have been a hell of a lot better.

Don’t forget, Democrat Senator McCain was one of the roadblocks to getting rid of the sunset provisions to the Bush Tax cuts and the other one was Mike DeWine of OH.

McCain would have probably done nothing

Amnesty
Cap-and-tax
Campaign finance "reform"
Higher taxes
Starting wars (he supported the Libya intervention)
Bailouts
&c.

As a Senator, McCain was a busy traitor. It's hard to believe that he would have stopped his jihad against conservative Americans just because he was promoted to a higher office.

Each generation must suffer the consequences of liberalism. Obama is our punishment for an electorate that believed the liberal promise. Yes, things were headed in the wrong direction prior to Obama, but his policies are bringing everything to a head. Too bad we must collectively learn our lesson via the road of hard knocks.

People were lulled to sleep a long time ago when they started buying Toyota and Honda and Volkswagen and Sony and more recently, Hyundai and Kia and LG et al.

I recall a Dallas, TX tea party in 2007.

It was in downtown Big D. They dunked a copy of the tax codes in an aquarium filled with tea.

Has nothing to do with obam.

Sort of like the proverbial frog in the pot of warm water that eventually will be brought to a boil.
