"One laughs at people like Hillery Clinton, John Kerry, John McCain, And Howard Dean ( Vermont's Village Idiot), who presume they have what it takes to bear the ring.They are aligned with the forces of Mordor, and are weak in spirit.They tremble in the shadows of the Nazgul."

I don't put McCain in the same camp as the left. However, my anology to the left in regards to Lord of the Rings is that they represent the union of the Two Towers, they are like Sarumen the wise, who chooses the path of the strongest vs. what is necessary to defeat evil.

Excellent analogy, I am a little rusty on the Lord of the Rings, remembering more about Tolkien's biography itself. His work came out of a high degree of personal suffering as a result of totalitarianism and fascism. Hi writing was done to expiate a large degree of that suffering, to give it meaning. I belive his lterary work makes an excellent paradigm to explain the nature of Islamofascism.
