There’s a common error that often crops up in the quest for an open discussion. It’s the framing of the debate. If you’re not careful, you concede too much to your opponent before the discussion even begins.
For instance, since when is Karl Rove a Democrat Lite?
Why even debate if he’s Democrat Lite or not?
Simply discuss his far Left of center actions, and the fact that he belongs in the Democrat party, not in any body related to Conservatism.
This guy is a full blown Democrat. He and his supporters won’t admit it, but the guy has short circuited far more Conservative candidates and Conservative policies than any of today’s leading Democrats.
Why? Because he was in a position to disarm the rank and file Conservatives, and destroy their ability to coalesce around sound people and policies.
Rove is probably the biggest enemy of Conservatism there is today. Yes, I’m serious.
And the power behind Rove is the Bushes!
Let me just add that a Bush is running for Land Commissioner here in Texas, I will be voting Rat in that race and I HATE RATS.
