Rove: Military Must Be Flexible in Iraq

[ECH1969]

Presidential advisor Karl Rove blasted Democrats on Friday for even suggesting the U.S. withdraw from Iraq, saying the U.S. can't leave one of the world's largest oil reserves in terrorist hands.

However, Rove also said the military must be flexible in its tactics.

"More sacrifice is going to be required,"Rove, President Bush's chief political strategist, told a ballroom full of Republicans at a fundraiser for Wisconsin candidates."

His remarks came on the day Iraq's prime minister and the U.S. ambassador issued a joint statement reaffirming the two countries"good and strong"relationship.

1. Satan: Rove Must Be Flexible in Hell

[PerceptionManagement]

12. I think Turd-Blossom should be declared an Enemy Combatant. It's that simple.

The US is being destroyed from within. Republicans are a bigger threat to the US than Iraq ever was. It's a shame that they are so selfish, so willfully ugly and so fucking incompetent. Face it. The US republic is lost.

Republican opinion is equal to or better than facts. -S. Colbert

[Blow Back]

26. SO where would

Rovepunzel like to spend the rest of his life? Hmmm Inquiring minds want to know.

[Tellurian]

33. SO, ROVE finaly admitted THIS IS ALL ABOUT OIL..OUR TROOPS ARE DYING for OIL !!

What happened to the "DEMOCRACY" LIE?

Rove has been listening to too much, O'Rielly!

[fooj]

2. More sacrifice is going to be required?

Who the f*ck does this slimy ass prick think he is? Since when is he the head of Foriegn Policy?
:grr:

[Jack Rabbit]

Since January 20, 2001

Everything is political in the Bush junta. It's stage-managed by the architect.

[gulliver]

35. More people need to die to cover up Republican failure.

[SharonAnn]

3. If he's making the military decisions, that explains things in Iraq.

[NanceGreggs]

4. Rove told a ballroom full of Republicans at a fundraiser:

"The U.S. can't leave one of the world's largest oil reserves in terrorist hands."

Translation: "We can't allow the revenues of one of the world's largest oil reserves to line the pockets of anyone other than ourselves."

"More sacrifice is going to be required."

Translation: "Your next big tax cut may be delayed for a few weeks."

[Zorra]

5. More sacrifice? OK. Let's give Rove to the Iraqi Resistance -

a sacrifice to the ancient Babylonian god of war.

[yurbud]

6. Rove should be in prison so he'd have to be flexible like Ned Beatty in

Deliverance.

Where does a candy ass sack of shit like him get off saying anything about the military making sacrifices?

Maybe he has finally gotten so full of himself he has lost all sight of reality.

[ShockediSay]

7. This from someone who never got close to military service

except maybe to take part in planning a failed campaign wounding and killing over 24,000 American soldiers.

[Ecumenist]

8. I'll tell you what then, rovie baby

why don't you pack your bag and carry your fat, bloated pink ass to Iraq, spend a week or so on the ground and then tell us with a straight face that the military has to be "flexible". I'd love to here your "assessment", (this from a man who never served anywhere, not even the bloody scouts, for crying out loud), and give us your on the ground determination of the flexibility.

[ECH1969]

9. Karl makes foreign policy?

[AlCzervik]

10. Maybe it's time for Karl to sacrifice, suit up Rove.

[Erika]

11. Rove neds to put his pudgy elitist GOP Bod into Iraq

or, respectfully, STFU.

[Beacho]

13. Yeah, Ok , whatevah, "Field Marshal Von Rove"

Stick to gaming elections you piece of human excrement.

I look forward to your coming indictments soon.

Of course you could put your Luger to good use and spare your self and the rest of us the inevitable end.

Doncha know?

[Charlie Brown]

14. I think it should be noted that Rove has zero military experience

and that he's now criticizing people like Chuck Hagel and John Warner, as well as "Democrats."

[Solly Mack]

15. What the fuck would he know about it?

they just don't bother hiding their quest for oil anymore do they?

[xxqqqzme]

16. '....the U.S. can't leave

one of the world's largest oil reserves in terrorist hands....'

And just who made that a possibility???? huh?

[Robeson]

17. It's a scary time when a political hack helps to determine our...

...our military policy. I guess as long as the guys in the Pentagon have a nice corporate job waiting for them when they retire, they just don't give shit.

[democrank]

18. Rove doesn`t know jack about sacrifice.

That`s why he fits right in with the rest of them in the Bush administration.

[kurth]

19. Rove: "I'm lying evil scum"

The architect of evil.

[DoYouEverWonder]

20. In other words

we can't let the Iraqis have their oil back because all Iraqis are terrorists.

This is why we are in Iraq and staying the course no matter what. It's all about holding the oil fields and BushCO is going to hold those fields even if it means killing every single Iraqi and few US Troops to do it.

[Kagemusha]

23. It's as good a summary as I can come up with.

Sad state of affairs.

[rodeodance]

21. gawd, I am soOOoOO SICK of him!!

[Rose Siding]

22. The UNelected Karl finds himself delighted by the oil and blood on his hands

He'll be a rich man all his life.

[bluerum]

24. Why is a college dropout spouting and making US policy!?!?!

[truthisfreedom]

25. try being flexible while being water-boarded, pig-boy.

[Blow Back]

27. But, Rovey...Top U.S. Military Officer Recommends ‘We Remove All Troops From Baghdad’

28. Try yoga Karl

[LetsThink]

29. What's Rove's Military Background ?

? Political strategist/ military advisor? One characteristic of this White House seems to be the abundance of skewed pol. advice and relative scarcity of military knowledge.

Just curious.. what is Rove's background?

[mitchum]

32. "Son" of a cuckold, mother committed suicide, very close to his gay...

siepfather, but no military background. Unless you count his repeated viewings of "Top Gun"...

[Akoto]

30. Well, at least he finally admits that the war's about the oil.

[mitchum]

31. Rove is a FLACK and MARKETER, why isn't anyone questioning that...

piece of shit's assumption of a policy making role?

[Monkeyman]

34. How the hell would that chicken hawk know about the Military

His political pull kept him out of the service

[Jed Dilligan]

36. So, the tub o' lard is a military expert now

I have my barf bag ready for when some university gives him an honorary doctorate.

[stepnw1f]

37. Karl Rove is a Traitor to America

What was that he was saying...?

[SeaBob]

38. Rove

maybe he should go over there and demonstrate

[fedsron2us]

39. It is all about O-I-L

As if anyone with half a brain thought this sorry, bloody fiasco was about anything else.
