Scum begets scum
The morally challenged gang of White House thugs are "puzzled" that Democrats are demanding an apology from douchebag-at-large, Karl Rove:
"I think Karl was very specific, very accurate, in who he was pointing out," communications director Dan Bartlett said, contending the comments weren't aimed at all Democrats. "It's touched a chord with these Democrats. I'm not sure why."
Congressional Republicans earlier joined the White House in standing solidly behind Rove, saying he shouldn't apologize and that he was outlining a philosophical divide between a president who sought to win the war on terrorism by taking the fight to the enemy and some Democrats who questioned that approach.
I've got your "philosophical divide" right here, assholes.
Karl doesn't get to shovel his brand of hate laced bullshit on top of half the population of this country without apologizing.
You want to stand behind Karl on this, boys? Fine. Be prepared for the blowback. There's no truth behind Karl Rove's words. Only inflammatory rhetoric set to cripple this nation into the fetal position of fear.
I realize you guys are trying to backpeddle a bit now...stating Rove was only referring to the "fringe" like MoveOn (which has nothing to do with fringe..so stop pretending) but that isn't what Rove said nor is it what he meant. You're caught.
So by all means...stand next to Rove. And when the next election cycle comes up, the left will use your photos with Karl and your words backing his spew...and the Dems can take back the House.
Will you want your crow with ketchup or do your prefer Tabasco?
Update: Orcinus' excellent essay talks about "Liberal Hunting Permits" bumperstickers and how the right from Rove to Coulter to Malkin to DeLay are all about completely ending liberalism. The "edgy" commentary from folks like these becomes conventional wisdom...just like "Jap Hunting" permits became conventional wisdom during WW2.
