The despicable data dump (did Karl Rove orchestrate hit on Cain?)

Racial stereotypes are perhaps the most pernicious of all hidden racism, and the data dump released this weekend on Herman Cain plays to the most vile of human impulses.

The headline allegation is that Cain engaged in sexual harassment. The rest of the story is that there is nothing to the charge and Cain is the victim of a racial smear.

Karl Rove is a despicable piece of dog excrement. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

No arguments here on that statement, but I'm going to give this a few days to pan out.

I really want to know who is behind this obvious smear and am looking forward to the "reveal"

A lot of suspects here with ample motives....this is going to be interesting!

Are you kidding?

Romney, dog abuser, fake badge user,
is NOTHING but a carpetbagging, backstabber.

"But the details of the event are more than unseemly - they may, in fact, be illegal. Massachusetts's animal cruelty laws specifically prohibit anyone from carrying an animal "in or upon a vehicle, or otherwise, in an unnecessarily cruel or inhuman manner or in a way and manner which might endanger the animal carried thereon. "An officer for the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals responded to a description of the situation saying "it's definitely something I'd want to check out." The officer, Nadia Branca, declined to give a definitive opinion on whether Romney broke the law but did note that it's against state law to have a dog in an open bed of a pick-up truck, and "if the dog was being carried in a way that endangers it, that would be illegal."

"Dog on Roof? What Was It Like for Romney's Pooch? - Scientists Say Dog Likely Experienced Wind-Whipped, Uncomfortable Trip - "Before beginning the drive, Mitt Romney put Seamus, the family's hulking Irish setter, in a dog carrier and attached it to the station wagon's roof rack. e'd built a windshield for the carrier, to make the ride more comfortable for the dog,".. Jordan Kaplan, the owner of Petaholics, a dog walking service in New York City,
and a lifelong dog owner and dog lover, said Romney's actions were uncalled for"

"Romney's dog - This is a distinction Mitt Romney probably could do without, but he is surely the first presidential candidate to be attacked for putting a dog with diarrhea in a carrier and tying it to the top of a station wagon. Romney's defense: Seamus liked it. [like the citizens under Romney's RomneyCARE, etc.?] "

"As the oldest son, Tagg Romney commandeered the way-back of the wagon, keeping his eyes fixed out the rear window, where he glimpsed the first sign of trouble. ''Dad!'' he yelled. ''Gross!'' A brown liquid was dripping down the back window, payback from an Irish setter who'd been riding on the roof in the wind for hours. As the rest of the boys joined in the howls of disgust, Romney coolly pulled off the highway and into a service station. There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car, then hopped back onto the highway."

Romney's bad behavior Exposed by Seamus

"Romney Loses Nomination Over Dog Abuse? - Romney was traveling that summer with his wife, five sons, and Seamus to his parent's cottage on Lake Huron. But hours into the ride, Seamus apparently suffered diarrhea, which ran down the back window of the car. .David Kravitz wrote on BlueMassGroup, a liberal blog. "It also strikes me as classic Romney: it solves a problem efficiently, in a business-like manner, and with no regard whatsoever for the suffering that the solution may cause."

yes, i agree.

rush is right—the republican progressives are content with waiting their turn at the pig trough.

the rinos just want to spend money and control.

I don’t care if he did. Karl Rove is a douchebag. Karl Rove has trashed, smeared, and tried to destroy every Tea Party Candidate that has refused to toe the GOP Establishment line.

Karl Rove can shove it.

President Hussein's team.

Just like a anonymous, west Texas yellow dog brought attention to Perry's painted over N-rock. No need to find the rock and present it to the MSM, the tale is enough.

Hussein is digging up dirt on the GOP candidates who are the real threat to his reign.

Nonsense. This is definitely a democratic party operation. I know on first-hand evidence that they have hit squads to go after rising Republicans, particularly individuals who come from groups that they consider “theirs”: women, blacks, hispanics.

We also see that in the last primary for governor of NJ, they ran ads pretending to be by candidates in the Republican Primary, which were really pre-emptive attacks on the candidates who might win. This was designed to sow intraparty hostility among Republicans, and to tarnish the reputation of whoever eventually won.

The tactic was explained to me in person by the eventual winner of the primary, Chris Christie, who went on to win in the general election.

Blaming Karl Rove is a smokescreen.

Is Rove working for a campaign? I honestly don’t know, and am asking . . . .

No, he's not. Not officially, anyway.

His day job is with "American Crossroads", a 527 organization that raises money and supports Republican candidates and causes.

In this capacity, he essentially represents big money donors.
