ROVE: "Those Whom The Gods Would Destroy..."

[Hissyspit]

On NPR's "The Connection" news show, they played an interview with Rove from just after the 2004 election. Rove says his feelings after the results of the election are ones of humility.

"Those whom the Gods would destroy, they first make proud," said Rove (actually I think it was grammatically incorrect the way he put it).

Well, he said it, I didn't.

2. "Those whom the Gods would destroy, they first make proud."

He's never been humble!

I doubt he realized he was talking about the Republican Party when he said that. If arrogant can be said to equal proud, then the Gods certainly have been working overtime on that bunch. I wish they'd hurry up and get to the destroy part.
