I was struck by how much Karl's words were like those of Muqtada.

Sadr and Rove are geographically thousands of miles apart, but both capture the political zeitgeist of their respective nations.

Each is absolutely certain of "victory" (whatever that means) and a protagonist of ideological combat. Both are ringleaders of America's first major war of the 21st century.

Their ideas, like a box of mixed chocolates, are occasionally sugary, sometimes bitter, and .... frequently nuts.
