Poll question: Do you believe Karl Rove is an accomplished and convincing...
...face-to-face liar? -- the operative words here being accomplished and convincing. Of course, we already know he's a liar.

------------------------------------

Advance this video to 55 seconds in and listen to Karl answer a few innocent questions among friendlies about his hobbies:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqdP9BYcjik

Do you believe he is a "practicing philatelist?" Notice how he hesitates before every answer. How would you expect him to do under oath among people who would like to send him to prison?

I wonder if Fitzgerald was the one recalling him to testify multiple times, or if Karl was asking for do-overs after consulting and being coached by his legal team between appearances.

After viewing this it seems more understandable why the WH fights so hard to keep Turd Blossom from testifying under oath on the Hill? A master of political dirty tricks and smear campaigns he may well be, but an accomplished, convincing, face-to-face liar? If this video is any indication, I think not.

If Leahy manages to get a hold of those emails and finds anything, I think Karl may be in some very serious trouble.

1. Karl is a behind the scenes guy. If Laurie David and Sheryl Crow can make him wet himself...
imagine what he'll do when he can't throw a hissy fit and run away.

2. He'll be in trouble. He's OK with a script...
...but off the cuff he's not all that much better than Chimpy. Of course, Chimpy doesn't know big words like philatelist.

5. Karl won't have much leeway if Leahy gets a hold of him.

4. Abe said it best...
you can fool some of the people all of the time (e.g. 28% er's); and you can fool all of the people some of the time; But you cannot fool all of the people all of the time....

Time has run out....

8. Let's make sure the Democrats handle this in a way that makes it hard for them to give a repeat
performance for a couple of decades.
