Whatever happened to "Rove, you magnificent b*stard" ? (Vanity)

rove

[Mountain Mary]

see poster number 49.

Rove was a clandestine water dog for Castle, working behind the scenes to make sure the Tea Party didn’t support O’Donnell.
Not only is this despicable on his part personally, but FNC should fire him for being a partisan operative and then lying about it.

I see I lost you at “if.”

[don-o]

And your point is.....??

[wideawake]

You didn’t lose me - I just underlined the inanity of making the assumption.

LOL

Austin seems to be a liberal enclave in conservative Texas. Capitals seem to be that way. Government money attracts them like manure attracts flies.

Bush’s 2nd Term happened.

[fishtank]

I always thought that was a stupid phrase.

The Texas Republicans who were familiar with Bush and Rove going way back were never in love with the Bush globalist agenda.

Assumptions? On this website? Shocking.

So FNC should fire an employee because an anonymous caller on a competitor's program repeated a rumor that he heard thirdhand about their employee?

We are now in the RDS zone.

Well Bush got elected calling himself a “Compassionate” Conservative. whatever that means. I agreed with most of what Bush did. Rove did his job and got Bush elected 2 times. Now Rove needs to wake up, smell the coffee, and pull his head out. Americans are PO’d and we are sick of the status quo.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Rove, you malodorous dastard!

[wideawake]

Well, we're generally better than that. One of my favorite things about FR is how many posters do the work of locating specific, documentary evidence that MSM reporters would never bother doing.

Speaking of assumptions, what about the validity of assuming something about the “Bush globalist agenda” (whatever that is today) because of Rove’s, ahem, less-than-enthusiastic endorsement of O’Donnell?

[Cheetahcat]

Magnificent RINO Maybe.

[VRWCmember]

He changed from magnificent to stupid after Bush left office and he started parroting the media’s advice to republicans.

[wideawake]

"Globalist agenda" is boilerplate, like "controlled demolition" or "transnational highway" or whatever conspiracist meme is racking up hits.

Is it just possible that Rove was expressing his own opinion, without any conspiratorial spin? That a veteran campaign operative is observing the scene and calling it like he sees it?

Or that his words should be taken seriously, rather than just dismissing him as a "bastard" and a "turd"?

[1rudeboy]

That's the thing--I didn't watch Rove on the FOX broadcast last night, and only skimmed the transcript this morning--I want to watch it live to see if what he said, opinion or otherwise, actually is false.

I'll be asking myself the question: if Rove goes from "magnificent bastard" to "stupid bastard" for predicting that O'Donnell cannot win (for example), does he go back to "magnificent bastard" if his prediction proves to be true? :)

LOL!

If she loses, Rove will become the scapegoat - not O'Donnell. "Christine lost because of that bastard Rove. She was on a tear until he brought up all that embarrassing stuff. How much did Coons pay him!"
