What A Coincidence! As Al Gore Endorsed Barack Obama, FOX News Trotted Out Karl Rove To Blame Environmentalists For Energy And Economic Woes


Hannity & Colmes barely covered Al Gore’s endorsement of Barack Obama last night (6/16/08). The supposedly “fair and balanced” coverage included silent footage of Gore and Obama on one side of the screen while on the other, Karl Rove, unidentified as an informal advisor to John McCain’s campaign, tore apart Gore, the endorsement and his environmental stances. With video.

In his scripted introduction, Alan Colmes said, “The average price of a gallon of gasoline hit another high today of $4.08 a gallon. That’s more than a dollar higher than one year ago. But who is to blame?”

Could there be anyone who has ever watched FOX News who could not guess the answer?

As far as I can tell, Rove has no credentials in either energy or economic policies. But that did not deter him from denigrating environmental concerns and talking up the importance of overriding them as the means for solving the country’s problems.
