Iraqi Shia leader Muqtada al-Sadr asked his fighters to cease their uprising on Wednesday in what may mark the end of a 10-week revolt against US-led forces that once engulfed the southern part of the country.
...The call came a day after President George Bush said the United States would not oppose a political role for al-Sadr, only weeks after branding him an ''anti-democratic thug''.

But, we don't negotiate with thugs, do we? Please tell me dear leader isn't going soft.
Dan Senor, spokesman for the US-led administration in Iraq, suggested al-Sadr caved in to US military pressure and Shia clerics who brokered a truce between his army and American forces.
"He is seeking to save face."
"He is seeking to save face."
But of course. We were whoopin' his ass, weren't we?
An anti-democratic thug. Let me get on the Oaf's juvenile level with him here: It takes one to know one.
