If It’s Sunday, It’s Karl Rove
:puke:

Karl Rove will be a guest this Sunday on Face the Nation, Meet the Press, and Fox News Sunday (ABC’s This Week is hosting a Democratic presidential debate).

Thus far, Rove’s farewell media blitz has simply provided him a platform to offer partisan attacks.

The media will be tempted to pick “Bush’s brain” for his views on the political horserace, on everything from the Democratic presidential candidates to Iraq to Bush’s veto threats. But they shouldn’t forget that Rove has yet to personally account for much of his sordid record in the White House. Here are a few of the issues that Rove needs to be asked about:

– Promoting the war as a member of the White House Iraq Group
– Leaking Valerie Plame’s identity
– Compiling the list of fired U.S. attorneys
– Politicizing government agencies
– Dealing with Jack Abramoff
– Violating White House email record-keeping rules

And there are a variety of other misdeeds. Let us know in the comments section what you’d like to see Rove get grilled on. We’ll be watching this Sunday to see if Rove is tossed some softballs or zinged with hardballs.

1. How do we get his ugly ass ejected? Write e-mails? He's like DeLay;
why give him any kind of platform?

2. you know, BS
we have to look to the editorial pages for the truth about this bastard.

the truth about Rove is being told only in editorials and editorial cartoons.

The MSM should be ashamed.

And like you, I'm so sick of them granting this incompetent evil idiot a platform to spew his bizarro-world propaganda.

6. I've read and posted so many articles disparaging him for the evil,
poisonous person that he is. Why do they want to infect us all with that? Are these morons not reading what I am?

3. Here's what Rove will be asked about:
What George Bush is really like

What it's like to work at the White House as a senior aide to the President

What it was like getting down with David Gregory at the WH correspondents' dinner

What Jenna wedding plans he might be privy too

What he thinks of Jenna's fiance

How he intends to reconnect with his family now


If he gets asked even one substantive question, I'll be shocked.

4. This is Karl's new position - Propaganda Czar
He will travel the talk show circuit spinning the propaganda to help insure the proper Democrats are smeared and the appropriate Republicans are promoted.

8. Just the other day he went on Rushy's stinkbomb..
telling folks about how smart and well-read George Bush is, and trashing liberals as elite and effete. So, I do believe you are absolutely correct on this point.

5. I don't think there's any need to watch to see if rove is
"tossed some softballs or zinged with hardballs".

The question is will he be tossed some softballs or get a blow job particularly from pumpkin head russert.

Rove and russert have about 20 chins between the two of them.

7. Let us pray
That at least one of them challenges this snake. Take chance, Bob Schieffer. Timmy won't do it. You know Fox won't.

10. If it's Sunday, it's give KKKarl one last kiss.
I predict Timmy will fall apart on the air.

Where's your access now, Timmy? Will Gillespie give you the same memo's on time?
