Do you think that he and Bin Laden get spammed by the same MoveOn action alerts? Or do you think that it’s just more of a convergence of sensibilities:

Iran’s supreme leader Friday compared the US President to Adolf Hitler and predicted that George W Bush would eventually be brought to court as a war criminal. ‘The day will come that Bush would be brought to a war tribunal for the catastrophe he caused in Iraq. He has to be called to account just like in the case of Hitler and (former Iraqi leader) Saddam (Hussein),’ Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in the Friday prayer ceremony in Tehran.

To those on the right who talk about a liberal-Islamist convergence, this is not exactly disproof. What’s the over-under on when Iran starts publishing photoshops of Cheney and Lieberman in blackface?
