Joe Wilson on KKKarl's book: Courage and Consequence: Less Memoir Than Hoax
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/joe-wilson/emcourage-and-consequence_b_492602.html

Karl Rove's book Courage and Consequence is less memoir than hoax. The chapters that relate to the CIA leak scandal are yet another attempt to deflect attention from his central role in the betrayal of Valerie Plame Wilson's identity as a covert CIA officer.

His distortions and fabrications are consistent with his approach throughout this sordid and criminal affair. Wasting his opportunity to tell the truth, he offers absolutely nothing new, and his selective use of facts and quotes are a transparent effort to continue his long campaign to confuse people, unfortunately consistent with his past behavior.

(snip)

If any additional proof to the irrefutable historical record were needed, Rove's book demonstrates once again the actions of a vindictive, angry and petty man. Karl Rove betrayed his nation; now he has betrayed history.

(end snip)

4. Rove's mendacity is so pervasive that even Dana Milbank balked at it
noting just some of the omissions, distortions, and outright lies by Rove.
