I call it the "Well, duh" reaction.
I just love it when politicians make allusions to literary works.
Senator Rick Santorum, R-Penn., must be trying to strike a chord with the geeky fantasy buffs of America. Honestly, I didn't know that his constituency had those kind of people.
(If you know anything about the Lord of the Rings, you'll see why this is so funny.)
Seriously. How astute to reveal your totally not blatant party strategy. At this point, it's not even inane, but more like restating the obvious.
EDIT: To put things in context, Santorum was comparing the Iraq War to the Lord of the Rings. But thanks to Stephen Colbert, we know what he really means. ;]
