Has Rove lost his mind?

1. Rove never comes out of his hole. He hides
behind Bush and the office, does all of evil
behind the scenes and well protected.

2. What on earth could he possibly thinking,
putting himself out there for Dean-like ridicule
and scorn. Demands for apologies, getting played
on the news under fire.

Him and Cheney and Rumsfeld, they're flailing.

1. As I said yesterday -
they're desperate. Rove never appears in public. This is very, very good for us. :bounce:

15. Yep.
Last time I saw Karl make a public statement was immediately after the first debate last year. You could smell his flop sweat thru the TV.

Some very big is brewing.

3. Rove is trying to keep this country divided...
As long as we stay divided, we can not overpower this administration. Rove is trying to show the Democrats in the worst light possible to feed the fires between the two parties. That is what they want, and they have it, and it will continue until we all realize we need to come together as Americans to fix this...

5. Nope, he's far from lost his mind...
He's doing what he does best: Creating a diversion away from issues damaging to Bushco and making a rallying cry to the rethug base.

17. Of course
That's why they're doing that because there's a lot of pressure from everybody to leave Iraq. Bush is yet ready to leave because he has to invade Iran for the oil pipe.

11. Imagine a new Pearl Harbor type attack is coming...
but that the impediment is that the blame for the attack would fall on Bush.

Now imagine a full-out effort to blame Democrats before the attack.

See:

Limbaugh: "If we get hit again" by terrorists, blame Leahy, Biden, Durbin, Boxer, Kennedy, Reid, Newsweek, Time, The New York Times, and Amnesty International

12. in a democracy this would've been a stupid move
by bringing up 9/11 you know people and the press are going to talk about OBL again and why the same man that used those brave words "dead or alive" almost 4 years ago has failed so miserably.

that's what would happen in a democracy..

but listening to all the pundits on the liberal media last night, all they were talking about was "the president's finest hours after 9/11", how he "united this country after a national tragedy" and more fucking lies. it's truly disgusting.

13. Desperately Trying to Divert Attention Away From
1. Record low poll numbers.
2. Fading support for the war.
3. No interest in SS 'reform.'
4. The fact that the SCOTUS just gave Wal Mart et al the right to take your house.
5. The fact that China (Unocal) is in a position to kick our ass.
6. The Gitmo Prison/Gulag abuse.
7. The fact that Bolton still isn't confirmed.
8. The fact that the gov is hiring a firm to collect data on all of our draft-elligible children.
9. So many flip flops on the reason we invaded Iraq.
10. Karl likes to watch Scott McClellan squirm.

14. I think Rove threw this out as fodder for Limbaugh, Hannity, et al.
Lately they haven't had anything good to chew on. The polls are bad, their rating are down ... so attacking LIBRULS again, man that just gets their juices flowing. This is the group that thinks it should be a crime to be a LIBRUL.

16. I think so too
They're failing really badly and want to take the focus off Bush and leaving Iraq.
