In a recent interview regarding Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, Paul Bremer offered this description:
"[He's] a guy who has a fundamentally inappropriate view of the new Iraq."
"He believes that in the new Iraq, like in the old Iraq, power should be to the guy with guns," Bremer said. "That is an unacceptable vision for Iraq."

Now, granted, as a liberal I clearly hate America, but isn't the whole premise behind any occupation "We have the guns so now we're in charge?" Isn't that what we're saying?! Anyone who can't see the irony...well, was probably going to vote for Bush anyway!
