*No neo-ultra-conservative talking-head dead-heads named Ann Coulter were injured in the making of these posts. We were sure to use holograms of the subject and we received permission from the Republican Party, the NRA, Jerry Falwell and Rush Limbaugh prior to submission. P.S. Groin, I find it interesting that you will go out of your way to give a good rep to someone who denigrates liberals and basically labels them as great Satans, such as your post here... Quote:

Great Satan is not a word to joke about! I have found no text from Animalmother, or anyone else, that mentions the words Satan, devil, or anything else that resembles the great Satan. You are taking things to the extreme and have no proof whatsoever. This is what I mean, this subject has gotten so heated that you are beginning the think with your heart instead of your head. Quote:
Hypocrisy, what hypocrisy? I told you how I felt in the previous post and when you still didn't listen I disapproved,and I let you know as such. I did not "hurt" you with foul language or take the time to look up an article that slanders a particular political leader (sound familier). How is disapproving of your antics hurting you? Thank you, G.R. |

What was the original topic of the thread? Ah yes. It is a good point that Saruman can be looked upon as a manipulating politician. That's really a thing I am sure everybody can agree with. However, I tend to look at Animalmother's view as rather simplified, if anything else. Yes, Saruman can be seen as a nice archetype of a corrupt, people-manipulating politician with all sorts of traits you named. But why leftist, necessarily? He can be ANY politician who uses rhetorics and manipulates others for his own cause, (ev. not actually caring about what he is preaching) - and such politicians exist, and in both camps. He can be a politician building his career on saying "I am bringing you a change!" or "Don't worry, I will see to it that the old values are not disrupted!" I am sure Saruman would be capable of doing both, depending on the situation when it would suit him (many-coloured robes! "I will be red, or blue, or green, whatever is currently needed"). Remember his double-dealing with both Sauron and the Free Peoples (the thing about old values is exactly what he has been saying to Théoden, or actually even Gandalf). So here you go - neither red nor green nor blue nor yellow, but a chameleon. That is Saruman of Many Colours. |

You are evidently incapable of discerning the difference between a pun about an individual with the systematic attack on an entire belief system; therefore, any further attempts to discuss the matter would be futile. Sorry for the digression, but I will not comment on this thread any longer. |
Please can you stop arguing! People! People!
Legate, I like your idea about the many colours corresponding to the many positions and viewpoints he is willing to take to achieve Supreme Ruling Power (I probably would give you a rep but I think you are doing well enough in that area *cough*two squares*coughcough*) |
