If I Were Frodo Baggins...
... I would have an extremely awkward, quasi-"platonic" relationship with Sam Gamgee that is difficult to watch.

Occupy Mordor or Destroy the Ring

Mordor on the Potomac . . .
If the "ring of power" is the Presidency, we must ask ourselves: can even Ron Paul be trusted with it?
I do not doubt his great goodness or fine intentions. But I do doubt that "government" is ever a force for good in the world, or that it can be used to accomplish good ends.
Only the defensive use of force is moral -- but all government power must be sucked from the people by acts of coercion before it can -- even theoretically -- be applied to defensive purposes. And in reality, when was the last time our government ever actually defended our lives, liberty or property? When has it ever NOT been the greatest extant threat to all three?
If the Lord of the Rings is a parable, its moral is that Power corrupts, always. The only man fit to hold the Ring is the man who will never put it on his own finger.
We must act in the hope that Dr. Paul will never use the power of his office EXCEPT in the strict defense of our lives, liberty and property. If he takes office and proceeds to "enforce the laws" that have been passed by many generations of tyrants and corrupt legislatures, his Presidency will be nothing more than a minor footnote to America's long march into night.

I will say this..
Ron Paul is just like Gandalf in that he does not give in to evil when given the chance and when he shines a light in dark places he blinds those that are not used to the light.
Gingrich/Santorum supporters are all blindly being led by Sauron to fight against peace
And Romney supporters are like Gollum, they are overcome with greed, they need their precious Federal Reserve Money...Romney will chokehold the GOP into letting him win some of these primaries
We need to destroy the ring of power (military industrial complex, federal reserve) and regain our land. Or all will turn to darkness.
Reading that post just gave me goosebumps......
so true, so true.
Frodo doesn't have it....
...in 2003, A Seal Team was sent into Gollum's cave with some heavy artillery and a full load of flash-bangs and frag grenades. They made a two pronged assault on Gollum's lair, with half the team through the front and the rest through the back openings to the cave. They quickly found their mark, and made mincemeat of him before blowing the right side of his face and head all to hell with a .50 cal round.
They then took the ring to their CIA handler, who gave it to his boss, who presented it to George and Poppy in limo parked in a parking lot along the Virginia side of the George Washington Parkway just in sight of the Masonic Temple in Old Town Alexandria.
They then gave it to Jenna who buried it in Paraguay...to save it for later...
Finally this election thing is over and we can get on with the collapse of our currency forthwith!
If by "ring" you mean "ring of power"...
then I say through it back to the people.
Mordor is more or less where power is being appropriated in violation of the Constitution(imperfect document though it may be).

I wish
the mission was defined that simply...at least Frodo knew exactly what to do.
If we could just make a list of what we needed to accomplish and then check the items off....now that would be great...
Where's Gandalf when you need him?
2 Chron 7:13-14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
He's running for President! lol
He *does* look a little like Gandalf, don'cha think?
A signature used to be here!

Where do you toss the source of the chaos...
Good point....
I would say country-club prison would be a perfect place. Flat out abolished the whole field of the Federal Reserve, fired any of the police on its payroll & sent basically dozens of our politicians to jail with the Federal Reserve "home penitentary service" and detainment squad.
There they can be made to watch videos on Ron Paul, Gerald Celente and dozens more in private prison cells. A long with a bunch of television sets playing the "New World Order" song over & over, so these crooks never get such a crude idea again!
Most importantly, the whole department of Commerce is phased out and replaced with the Department of Treasury. Someone's got to stop the crooked World Bank, after all this.
Funny you should ask...
I was musing recently about this country's mess and I was thinking of Froto and the ring. At first, I imagined RP as Froto and the ring, of course, had "Federal Reserve System" engraved on it but Froto doesn't have the charachter that RP has so Sam would represent RP and carry the ring. The ring being the FED(or maybe all central banks combined), they would be taking "The Ring" (all Fed chairmen, and CEOs of all central banks) to Maximum Security Prisons!!! In these prisons, they would dig holes six days a week (digging builds character). One day a week they would listen to "hard Bible preaching."
Hey, when you're washing dishes or cleaning toilets for the umpteen thousandth time, your mind can sometimes get off on a tangent :)
I would prefer...
they get to listen to Ron Paul read the Constitution to them over and over til they get it through their heads what the founding fathers were saying.
That's a good idea, too!
My children had to memorize the Preamble in school. Maybe they would have to memorize the entire U.S. Constitution and know it so well that they could say it backwards and forwards!
