On Faux News right now KARL ROVE is claiming the white house commited a FELONY with the "Sestak

[jezebel]

offer". Karl fucking Rove.
He just pulled the who knew what when line.
Now they are saying Democrats are calling for an investigation too, not just Republicans. Bullshit.

[Jennicut]

1. It is Faux. Nothing they say is believable.

[rfranklin]

2. Based on what law?

Amazing! This is the guy who forced US attorneys to instigate false accusations against Democrats right before elections. The same guy who worked for the guy who committed war crimes through wars of aggression.

[jezebel]

3. They keep reciting some code number that they claim is a felony. And they call it a BRIBE. In loud

voices. They are trying to drum it into all their viewers heads.

[pscot]

4. Usually I would defer to K-K-K-Karl's expertise on government malfeasance

but in this case I think he's just blowin' smoke.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

5. Rich

coming from him. :eyes:

Something about stones and glass houses come to mind..........

BTW which Democrats are calling for an investigation????? :shrug: Or is this a "some people say" thing. I'm sure that Fox News actually asked him about that, right? :eyes:

[jezebel]

8. He said Dick Durbin and Anthony Weiner. nt

[Proud Liberal Dem]

16. Any comments on the record from them?

:shrug:

[Proud Liberal Dem]

28. I don't know about Weiner

However, it appears that Durbin is just calling for Sestak to clarify his comments and the WH to provide some follow up information. Not a call for investigation per se.

7. Toomey's gonna lose, Turd.

Can't stop it, no matter what lies you spout.

[HughMoran]

9. This is good news. He may prompt Obama to put him and other Bushco criminals in jail

I think this plumpalo duffus should consider shutting up - lol.

[brooklynite]

10. Repeating a Hannity buzzword from earlier this week

[still_one]

11. That is bullshit, however, the WhiteHouse should just come out and say what happened

instead of being quiet about it. That is actually hurting Sestak by their silence

There is NOTHING wrong with offering someone a job, it is because they are not coming out and telling what happened, the media who is on crack is implying it was some sort of bribe

There IS NO CASE

Just come out and say what happened already

[Cha]

12. Well, I read somewhere around here last

night that Pres Obama is going to do just that.

[still_one]

14. That is good, then he should get on with it, because it is really a non-issue that the media

scum are trying to make something out of

[robinblue]

21. Basically, Gibbs said it was looked into and nothing was found

to be wrong. He gave no details.

[still_one]

22. Thanks, and what Gibbs said is correct, but if the pseudo-media does not say that, they need to keep

pushing it more forcefully I guess

[harkadog]

33. David Axelrod said Tuesday that it would be "a serious breach of the law".

So I guess some in the WH disagree with you.

[Cha]

13. And fucktard karl rove knows all about bribes and felonies..

and he always accuses the Dems of what the gNOpigs are guilty of.

President Obama is going to speak to this soon. Who said Dems were calling for an investigation? Mediawhores?

[Ishoutandscream2]

15. Hey, KKKarl. You should know something about felonies, right?

You know, glass houses and all.

[Bitwit1234]

17. Why is it when republicans say JUMP the Democrats

reply with when and how far.

[Bitwit1234]

18. I myself think it is a shame that Sestak

won, if he is going to slur and slam Democrats like this. Why in the hell did he even make such a remark. He knew people wouldn't vote for a republican no matter how much they said they were a democrat and Spector had no chance at all to win.

[Arkana]

19. 1) They didn't commit any crimes.

2) Fox is literally the only place where people think a crime was committed. Big goddamn surprise.
3) No one except Darrell Issa and a few nutjob Republicans are calling for an investigation.

[leftynyc]

23. Not true

Joe in the morning has been spitting about this since last week. That's the supposed "liberal" network.

[activa8tr]

25. Morning (dead intern) Joke! Now THERE'S someone I can

believe in! NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[leftynyc]

30. Didn't say I believed him

Just that he was talking about it on the supposedly liberal network. Over and over again.

[Arkana]

26. You mean Joe Scarborough (R-FL)?

Shock. Awe. Amazement.

[leftynyc]

29. Yup - he and his stepford wife sidekick (n/t)

[babylonsister]

20. That's their newest comical meme...

dick morris and hannity are, too, claiming this is an impeachable offense...it's to laugh at. That's the best they can do?

[ljm2002]

24. Let's not forget...

...Rove was behind the prosecution of another politician, Don Siegelman. It was a total railroad job, the man was prosecuted for something which (a) was common practice historically and (b) did not benefit him financially. Yet Siegelman was tried and convicted and sent to prison -- making sure they handcuffed him and got a nice photo-op in the process.

When the Obama administration took office, most of us expected his DOJ to look into that case and unravel what went on there.

Nope. Holder's DOJ declined to get involved.

Fast forward to today, where Rove is accusing Obama of something illegal when it is (a) common practice historically and (b) does not benefit him financially.

Do we see a pattern here?

Let's hope it does not hold up. But if Rove is free to spout this nonsense, then the Obama administration's history of appeasement of the rabid right wing has contributed to that. So quelle surprise, the rabid pit bull bites him in the ass. Who could have seen that coming.

[LLStarks]

27. Is electoral bribery a felony or just poor ethics? nt

[harkadog]

34. A felony.

[political_Dem]

31. Karl needs to be put in jail. But that's only a pipe dream. :(

[Phx_Dem]

32. A criminal explaining what's legal . . . rolf.

:rofl:

[LeftyAndProud60]

35. Please re-open the Plame case. Please. NT
