Rove won't be charged in CIA leak case

?? How so??

I don't recall any Dems saying Bush had an illegitimate black child, or that Bush is gay, or that Bush will hire nothing but gays into his cabinet if elected, or any other possible condemnation? ( Other then related to policy issues.)

Rove is guilty of all of the above and more.
I take it back, not just as dirty, but dirty nevertheless.

As usual, the conservatives are just going about their business, not rubbing this in the faces of the many who have made complete fools of themselves, as usual.

You have got to be kidding me. Why don't you read through the board before you speak? Will ya? Oh, I just noticed you couldn't help yourself either. What a disappointment, Deegan--a real disappointment.

GFY

So what? If you want to immitate him more try with some actual thinking and knowledge of Dr. Dean.
 
I read in today's Washington Post that Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame are considering bringing a civil suit against Karl Rove. Boy I hope they do. Hit him where it hurts and while he's thinking of his next whispering campaign!

Why are you so full of hate?
Why do you wish for bad things to happen to other people?

I don't understand any of this! The left have been attacking Karl Rove mercilessly for several years now, but it turns out he didn't do what they were accusing him of. I don't understand this deep seeded hate for the man. One could've thought you guys were talking about a serial killer, or child molester.

What has he actually done? WHAT?

You're allowing your hate to cloud your judgment. It's sad.

NO, I'm not kidding you, and I am speaking in terms of the entire country when I say that, but it applies here as well. Sure, a few will have to rub it in, but that's just par for the course. Just look at the thousands of posts about Rove, then count the posts about how ignorant, deceitful, and wrong you that judged him were. You just won't see that sort of anger, venom, and total waste of energy from the conservatives in this way.

Hoot, I totally agree. I am not sure if I said this already, but I would be embarrassed to have someone like Karl Rove on my side. He wins by demonizing the other party, and his demonization is mean spirited and inaccurate. Frankly, I would rather lose than have him on my side.

faithful_servant--I kinda like you. :2wave:

Does that mean you hate James Carville, Paul Bagalla and Dick Morris? They were all Democratic operatives and just as dirty as Rove ever thought about being.

First, do you have any idea of what Rove has done to his political opponents? If you look up the word "hate" in the dictionary, the first definition is: What Karl Rove exudes politically.

Second, my judgment is not clouded.

Third, I honestly don't give a rat's butt what you think; however, if it makes you feel better about yourself to insult me, be my guest.

I do not know enough about James Carville or Paul Bagalla (which name doesn't even sound remotely familiar) to comment on them. I guess the same is true for Dick Morris. The only part of Dick Morris I know about, is his current left bashing that he does.

All Rove has done aps is kick liberals butts in election after election and as a right wing conservative I don't have a problem with that..........

Of course you don't--right-wing conservatives have ZERO conscience.

Sorry, I thought you were more politically astute than the average person. Look them up. All are the left's version of Rove, i.e. political campaign strategists.

Dick Morris bashes the left now, but he was Clinton's chief strategist in his first presidential election, that is before he was kicked out because of a sex scandal.

All three have done as bad or worse than Rove ever thought about, especially Carville.

Yeah Navy, if you're going to quote Howie, at least get it right. It was:
YYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But seriously, Howie is truly one of the great patriots of our day. He has laid his very reputation and place in history on the line in order to portray the left as being as whacko as they come. He has played the fool for many years in order to further enhance the left's reputation as the party of the American fringe. Some day the truth will be revealed and Howie's sacrifice will be recognized as one of the truly great sacrfices of all time.
Howie, we salute you for making yourself look like an idiot in order to keep liberals out of office.

I think in all honesty that there are both left wingers and right wingers that have no conscience don't you?
 
Speaking of a lack of conscience, here's a quote from the compassionate left:

Sacrificing Our Troops on the Altar of Republican Politics

by
Larry C Johnson
Leave it to the Porcine Draft Dodger–Karl Rove–to impugn the character of combat veterans. Can’t blame him for trotting out the same playbook that worked so well in 2004 against the candidacy of John Kerry. If it worked once it should work again.

Of course I am referring to Karl’s speech Tuesday night to Republicans in New Hampshire. According to a piece in Wednesday’s Washington Post:

In a speech to New Hampshire Republican officials here Monday night, the White House deputy chief of staff attacked Democrats who have criticized the U.S. war effort in Iraq, such as Sen. John F. Kerry (Mass.) and Rep. John P. Murtha (Pa.), who he said advocate "cutting and running."

"They may be with you for the first shots," Rove said of such opponents. "But they’re not going . . . to be with you for the tough battles."

Karl is a shameless bastard. Small wonder his mother killed herself. Once she discovered what a despicable soul she had spawned she apparently saw no other way out.
 
If I was a democrat running for office, I would not take this kind of abuse from someone of the character? of Karl Rove.

I would hit back hard, and accuse the republicans of being nothing more then war profiteers...profiteering at the expense of the blood of our sons and daughters. I would continue to take from the playbook of the republican party and ceaselessly call the republicans war profiteers...so much so until it sank into the psyche of the American people.

Frankly, Gill, I am not remotely interested in reading up on this crap. But thanks for playing.

Yes I do. It's about time you and I agreed on something. :cheers:

Ahh, I see. You are only interesting in ripping apart members of the Republican party and don't care about the dirty tricks the Dems use.

I totally agree. I would love to see the Democrats come up with a strategy like this.
 
Gill said:

That's not it at all. Gill, I was NOT into politics until 2000 and even then not truly into it until the 2004 election time (early 2004). So back when Bill Clinton was president, I have no idea what kind of tactics his people were playing. I just wasn't interested back then. However, even if the democrats were playing the same kind of nasty games as Karl Rove (which I doubt--he is in a league of his own), it shouldn't take away from my feelings about Rove's tactics. While you could perceive me as being a hypocrite, that would be an incorrect assumption. But even if I was a hypocrite, why would that make my opinion any less credible?
 
Gill said:
Speaking of a lack of conscience, here's a quote from the compassionate left:

Since Kerry and Murtha both favor cutting and running in Iraq I think what Rove said is right on............

Of course they both have done a 180 on the war in Iraq so it does not mean much especially with the biggest flip flopper in history Kerry.........

This is the biggest problem I have with the Dems.

If someone puts their right arm around my shoulder and sucker punches me in the gut, that person would then be a candidate for the most extensive, exhaustive, expensive rhinoplasty there has ever been. But wait you say, that's no way for a liberal to talk. TOUGH!!

Apologize? Stick it!! :smoking:
