Nazgul Not to get OT and/or political, but...

undefined Anyone else notice the similarity between Bush's victory speech today, and, well...you know:

"We have one country, one Constitution, and one future that binds us. "
--President George W. Bush

"One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,/ One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them."
--The Dark Lord Sauron

Being a non-American, that's kind of creepy! Are you saying that "Dubla" is aiming to dominate the world? But there's no more Elves to stop him and can there be another Last Alliance???

Welcome to the Moot Gothmog! (I always feel a bit weird saying that to people with evil names...)

I didn't hear the speech... but I don't think there is a solid connection. (It's Dubya, not Dubla Durin )

How was that for a first post eh?

Nazgul

i have always thought that bush was sauron's cousin

next he will try to invade gondor, or italy as it is currently known
none shall have the power to stop him,
except the Last Alliance of Orcs and Spiders

Of course it is, my mistake, I was taking it how I would say it.

... Or it could be a name to deceive (Annatar for e.g.).

This is BOTH off-topic AND political.

We do allow political discussion at Entmoot, but only in the General Messages Forum. You're welcome to say about anything you like there, just so it's within our board's guidelines. Oh - also, you'll want to be prepared to defend your statements, if you're brave enough to post them there.

Meanwhile, welcome... and do go and introduce yourself in the 'official welcome' thread of GM.
