The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are Conquest, War, Famine and Death.
The Horseman of War is easy. That's Dick Cheney - not only did he push for war in the Bush 2 administration, he was defense secretary in the Bush 1 administration.
The Horseman of Famine is also easy. Revelation 6.5-6 tells us:
And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
The night before Shrub invaded Iraq, in his address to the nation he told the Iraqis not to damage their nation's oil infrastructure. Therefore, the Horseman of Famine has GOT to be George W. Bush.
There are a LOT of candidates for the role of Horseman of Death; nothing says he has to be an American...pick someone who does a lot of executions and I think you've got it.
This leaves the Horseman of Conquest, and from a political standpoint the Koch Brothers fit well.
