I'm thinking about goatee's here and the officious looking rimmed spectacles so popular among early Twentieth Century radicals. The resemblance is spectacular. First we have Trotsky:

Look he's sitting there next to a Bust of Vlanold Reaglin.
And now we have Norquist:

Note the face fuzz it's all very very sinister.
So Kossacks we obviously are beset on all sides by radicals and their "beardy wierdiness".
Now for the internationale!
Here's a bonus, a vintage film of street fighter Rosa Luxemberg discussing the street fighting in post war Berlin circa 1918. It's a bit choppy but in color:
And here's Jane Hamsher discussing healthcare reform with Rahm Emmanuel, see the veal pen:
and finally Comrades the Rotarian International!
So, you see they are obviously all Trotskites, same methods same ends.
Politics are getting surreal.
