"KARL ROVE'S WEB OF EVIL

Right from day one, Karl Rove cemented his link with the religious right, by being born on Dec 25, 1950, a day many on the right refer to as “Christmas," a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ (an influential leader worshiped by the religious right.) It was no surprise that Dec 25, 1950 was ALSO the same EXACT day Communist forces recrossed the 38th parallel into South Korea. Clearly, Rove was already making an impact.

"This is what he does," says one observer.

After an unremarkable stint in high school, Rove entered the University of Utah, which currently ranks FIFTH HIGHEST among the nation's campuses for drug-related arrests. Rove dropped out after a few years. What is more interesting: when you research other individuals who have dropped out of college, two names keep coming up.

Rush Limbaugh. Tucker Carlson.

Coincidence?

that's it? It is just those 3?!?! In the history of the world, 3 people dropped out of college and coincidentally or not, it happened to be 3 modern day conservative icons. this is shocking.

Wait, didn't Teddy K. drop out of law school?


eta: oops, me bad, TK was expelled from HLS. Twice. once for cheating on a test, and once for paying a classmate to cheat for him. the immoral depravity of the Dummos knows no bounds.

You laugh, but that's the way we liberals really think. I heard it from Ann Coulter.

I've been thinking for quite awhile that the G should have allowed people to write off much more of their losses resulting from the Clinton bubble. It would have resulted in a greater short-term deficit, but long term would have hastened the disappearance of annual reminders (tax preparation) of losses that people had sustained. I'd posit that this would have resulted in greater investment and greater taxable returns by now. Instead, we have people writing off 3k per year who are still licking their wounds. Never seen any research or position papers for this.

Rare Honesty
 

From the interview:

AMC: That's true. I think...and this is a rare case for the Bush administration. The more detail you get into with this story, the more clear it becomes not only did Rove not break the law, that by Washington standards, he didn't really do anything wrong, either. But again, this is a situation where the headline may sway people. I don't know if it will or not. This is certainly an inside the Beltway story.

CB: Do you agree with Hugh that it doesn't relate at all then to people out in the Midwest, or people in California don't care that Karl Rove was part of this story, Ana Marie?

AMC: Well, I think that they could care. It's really...the Democrats, for once, have a story where they don't have to do the explaining, that it's actually the White House's duty to try and explain the situation in such a way that it doesn't make it look like Rove did something wrong. And it's true. I think it's pretty clear from the E-mail at least that he sent to Cooper, that he didn't break the law. But to be on the defensive, where you're explaining the difference between breaking the law and doing something wrong, is a situation that the Bush White House doesn't want to be in.

. . . .

AMC: I think again, I'm just going to repeat myself, that the nature of cable news is going to be what benefits the Democrats in this case, if they choose to make an issue out of it. Because I can just sit here and repeat Karl Rove identified and undercover CIA agent, and then it's up to Hugh and his compatriots to kind of explain why that's not such a wrong thing to do.

(AMC is Wonkette. Her point is, this is a BS noisebomb, and it only has legs to the extent that people only see and remember the initial NYT headlines.)

Not least because Hitler had already invaded Poland, at least vis-a-vis the "lies" we were discussing here most recently.

Oddly enough, I had this very thought before I read very much of your post.

This is the most absurd thing I have ever read on this board. Mazeltov.

Do you think Allah somehow protected Muslims from the shrapnel? "Among the targets in the worst attack on London since World War II was the Edgware Road station, located in the heart of wealthy, assimilated Arab London." More.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I ask you: How could my client have committed fraud if the plaintiff chose to purchase his products?

I'm skeptical, to say the least.

This is exacly my position re the Second Amendment, but when it comes time to show up early in the morning for the militia drills, none of the gunnies are willing to haul their asses out of bed.

Speaking of which, a sign in front of a church in the small town in the very red state in which I spent last weekend informed me that 26 babies die from abortions every ten minutes. Back of the envelope calculations I won't bother to repeat here lead me to conclude that 5% of the female population capable of childbearing has an abortion every year. Since, as Penske correctly notes, some percentage of woman are anti-abortion, and this percentage is somewhat less likely to have an abortion, that percentage must be even higher among the rest. Can this be right? Sounds high to me.
