Shorter David Brooks, "The Age of Bibi", New York Times, January 2 2015:

He's a little bit Nixon
He's a little bit Kennedy
He's kind of Churchill
He's sort of Machiavelli
But Sara is Lady Macbeth.

I couldn't really deal with this one at all, I guess, but Driftglass is brilliant, and our friend Redhand in comments here inspiring.
