Sauron: Saruman is 'doing a great job'
Speaking for the president, Scott McClellan yesterday voiced the administration's support for Donald Rumsfeld, which is tantamount to Sauron saying, "Saruman is the Saru-MAN!"
"Secretary Rumsfeld is doing a great job leading our efforts at the Department of Defense to win the war on terrorism and to help bring about a free and peaceful Iraq, and the president is focused on working closely with him on those matters," McClellan said.
So as Rumsfeld incants over a Palantir swirling with visions of amputees and Geneva Accords violations, the beady but fiery "Eye of Dubya" will be watching and scheming along with the despotic Secretary.

Saruman didn't think his plan through too thoroughly, but you gotta give the man props for the Urak-Hai. How'd he even think of that?
As for Sauron, don't get me started on that bastard.

Since I posted this, I've thought of more similarities. Saruman was the "military" arm of Sauron. Saruman invented a "high tech" army -- breeding Orcs and Goblin men to make the Uraks. Wolfowitz is sort of like Wormtongue (both "W's"), quietly coaxing things from the shadows. The culvert bomb explosion at Helm's Deep was kind of like shock & awe.
