“Sean, I’m happy for Christine O’Donnell

had one of the best campaigns of all time!”

Outing Rove’s Treachery
When Christine O’Donnell pummeled Mike Castle last Tuesday, it was instantly obvious to everyone and anyone with an ounce of common sense that there was nothing left to be gained by fellow Republicans continuing to harp on her alleged “baggage.”
Or was there?
Karl Rove has, since that glorious night for both the Tea Party and America, persisted in chiming in with (of all things) the nitwits on CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the babbling, natterinig herd of Democrat apologists who keep bringing up deliberate mischaracterizations of O’Donnell’s supposed “problems.” All of the above remain adamant that these indiscretions render her “unelectable.”
Notwithstanding that she has already won one electoral go-round, and did so against the man who everyone says would have handily beaten Coon come November; that fact alone would suggest that she actually has a fair-to-middlin’ chance of coming out on top again.
Notwithstanding that one of the complaints against her is that she was audited by the IRS (despite that she has made public a letter from the IRS apologizing for their “computer error.”) It’s also said that she is “against masturbation,” when what she actually said was that masturbation and pornography within a marriage is a form of lustful unfaithfulness to the marriage vows. She's right; it is.
Karl Rove is no dunce. Heralded by the GOP faithful as being “The Architect” responsible for George W. Bush’s two successful campaigns for the White House, he knows as well as any of us the truths behind the manipulated smears of this morally upright woman. So why does he continue to besmirch her with what he knows are innuendo and libel? Enough of this kind of defamatory prattle from a man in his position could make her chances of winning vaporize.
It makes absolutely no sense to continue the lies against O’Donnell when doing so could well be handing that much-needed immediately sworn-in Senate seat back to the Democrats. That is, unless there is an ulterior motive, a Machiavellian method to Rove’s madness.
What if his continual carping does lead to her downfall? And what if the seat does go to the Democrats? Could he not then say, “See, this is what happens when you don’t listen to those who know better than you who you should vote for!” What if it's just a ploy to get the sheep back in the pen, the slaves back on the plantation?
As despicable and treasonous to the Conservative cause as that would be, it is also virtually the GOP Old Boy’s Network’s last best hope for maintaining what has long been their stranglehold over what they have come to think of as their property; the Republican voters of America.
Sure, it would give Obama and Reid what they need to continue their onslaught on our Constitution, our Liberties, our very way of life including The American Dream. But to not do so would mean relinquishing the power that has made them drunk for so long; the power of the Entitled Elite back in the hands of the rabble.
As unspeakable as is Rove’s deceitful attacks on O’Donnell, far more despicable is the reason behind his treachery. The man deserves to be shunned by all true patriots as a vile, lying enemy of us all. He has worked hard for the title, and has sold his soul in this hour, and turned his back upon every shred of decency that might once have been what motivated him. It surely is no longer a part of his equations.
Karl Rove is a traitor, and a liar, and he has got to be outed for his perfidy. We’re onto you, Architect, and your house of cards is about to come crashing down around your burning, deserving ears.
;-/
This reaction of yours and others is so over the top it really makes me wonder about the sanity here. As I see it Rove said some things that people can disagree with.....gee I wonder if that has ever happened before?”
I don't think it is over reacting when a political operative is not just expressing an opinion, but is using his national media presence to attack a candidate who does not have the same national media platform to counter attack!
This not about a disagreement about a matter of opinion, it's about power being exercised by political operative via media access.
Calling this a “boo boo” is quite the understatement. Like Newt Gingrich’s weak attempt to walk-back his comment about the Tea Party. Remember the self-proclaimed “front runner” for the GOP in 2012 calling the Tea Party the ‘Militant Wing’ of the GOP?
See Newt has a knack of overplaying his hand and in this case he said it during the early days of the Obama Administration and “Hope and Change” ...coincidently around the same time he declared the “Era of Reagan” to be over.
Boo-boo? I think not!
people who think only of their own vaulted position instead of the good of the country...
Kove might be one of them...but I never ever trusted him....he's never been my cup of tea....
What he did was indeed treacherous, BUT... O’Donnell wouldn’t have that 1.2 million bucks in her war chest if not for said treachery. LOL I didn’t think she had a snowball’s chance in Hades of winning, but with all this attention, and if she successfully parries all the allegations, she just might win.
Bush would have struck back just as Cheney did once out of office. Lesson for principled folks out there, “Keep your principled rudder in the water so you can be confident in your decisions". Rumsfeld held the best news conferences during "Shock and Awe" because of the above!!!
Rogue is a fat azz Turtle turd.
I knew Rove worked for Castle but Rove has no choice now but to back O’Donnell. I don’t believe for a second Rove wants to lose that Senate seat without a fight.
If Nov 3rd finds a Republican House and Senate with Palin’s candidates winning, she will walk to the nomination. If not, watch for Rove’s man to come forward.
I think the House is ours but I'm not so sure the Senate will go GOP. As for Rove, who knows. We can sit here all night and speculate and that is all it will be... speculation.
Rove isn’t a traitor...he’s a Republican hack who didn’t disclose his ties with the Castle campaign.
Did I mention that he’s a good ole establishment boy who, along with the rest of them, love a certain amount of power and control?
I didn’t?
Well...I have now...and Christine is going to win in November.
Kemmer called him “tropical storm Rove” this morning. I loved it. ;o)
I like Karl, but he is a political expert. He knows better.
I have to believe he was acting in service of another agenda, probably protecting the Republican power elite.
The tea party is our best effort to return power to the people, and some people don’t want to give that up. Rove needs to know this is not about keeping people in power, or even winning. It is a powerplay to bring America home to its roots. If it fails, well, the other way was just the slow death of a million cuts.
Government deficits are too huge to piddle around with the Mike Castles of the world. The country will go broke. Better to have a conservative with a chance to win than a liberal with a great chance to win.
she just might win.
I can tell who won’t be in the new Senate:
Mike Castle
DELAWARE CONSERVATIVES 100% MIKE CASTLE/KARL ROVE 0%
I have to believe he was acting in service of another agenda, probably protecting the Republican power elite
Thats exactly what he is doing.
Who do you you think MOLDED the CURRENT GOP PARTY MACHINE?
Do you think people who want jobs at GOP Federal, State and Local Parties draw straws? ( I know u don’t, just making a point)
That is controlled by the Executive Branch. Long after their administration has ended, they have “Placed” their people in these jobs...from Federal down to the local level.
i.e. Rove and Bush built the current GOP PARTY MACHINE and still control through the people they “Placed” there. The loyalist so to say.
The anger you see sprewing from Rove’s mouth is the reaction to the fact they have lost control.
The GOP PARTY MACHINE that Rove and the Bushies Built is crumbling. And that is the root of his anger.
This wasn’t a mistake, this was pure bile coming out of him.
He has put out emails continuing the attacks.
He is just shocked by the reaction to his lies!
He now knows he overestimated his influence and importance.
When someone of Karl Rove's stature gets on national television and talk radio, and repeats the same slanders over and over, it's not a "boo boo". It's despicable treachery.
“When someone of Karl Rove’s stature gets on national television and talk radio, and repeats the same slanders over and over, it’s not a “boo boo”. It’s despicable treachery.”
Worth repeating. I agree 100%!
