I'm still laughing at the complete leap in logic they made comparing the One Ring to the dispute over Iraq. If anything, I'd say you can draw a far more apt comparison to the Ring representing American imperialism and Sauron and his ilk being the Bush administration. But more than that, which these geniuses have completely missed, is that Tolkien was an atheist.
And they named Three fucking Kings as a runner-up?! I wonder what other movies they completely missed the point on -- I'm betting American Psycho is up there.
This entire article is best summed up in the immortal words of John Stuart Mill: "Conservatives aren't necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservative."
