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.

Dude, I’m following this race very closely.
I have been responding the best I can to attacks on Christine for weeks. I don’t care about this Karl Rove stuff.
But they will be attacking her on the masturbation stuff, and I want to know what happened so I can correct them when they’re wrong. I want to be able to say this is what was said. And then say it. And be able to tell people exactly where I read it, and I want it to be a credible source. And I want to link to it.
I don’t want to say “oh I heard from someone who heard from someone”. I want the good info here, the real info here, so I can knock stuff down and others can knock stuff down.
I guess he was Bush’s brain. No wonder Bush was so “progressive”
Watch MSNBC, they play it all the time. She said “If he’s gonna take care of thimself, what am I Doing here” She was talking about “in a marriage.”
Rove’s not an idiot. He knows exactly what he’s doing by repeating and exaggerating the litany of O’Donnell’s supposed offenses at every media opportunity he can land, as soon as she won big in the primary. Meanwhile, he’s exhausted not a moment on attacking her truly Marxist rival.
But going overboard in O’Donnell’s defense with not-quite-truths doesn’t help either. She hasn’t released any papers in which the IRS admitted an error. Instead, she released an IRS letter from February, stipulating what they thought due and that they wanted it cleared up by the beginning of March, and an IRS letter from May, stating that the lien they had placed in March had been removed because she had paid in full. Maybe an agent told her the lien was in error, maybe he didn’t. But so what? She’s paid up and to make an issue of it now is ridiculous.
As to the masturbation, in the 90’s MTV video she condemns it as a sin without regard to marriage, though she justifies her position by asking why would a man who knew how to please himself already need her once they were married. She has since said that she has ‘matured’ in her views on that. But so what? The old video is good for a giggle, but not relevant in the least.
Shame, shame, shame on Rove—but there’s no reason or need for Freepers to stretch the truth in defending against such nitpicking.
Actually, I believe she said something to the effect of ‘if he knows how to pleasure himself already’—as in by his pre-marital masturbation experience—but no matter, she has said her views have since ‘matured’. It’s a total non-issue at this point.
Yep, and it likely wouldn’t be crumbling in this case (and in the other major upsets) if Sarah Palin hadn’t driven in her bulldozer influence to boost O’Donnell at the critical time. She did it before in Alaska and, with the will of the people, she’s doing it again now nationwide.
Calling Mittens Romney, calling Mittens Romney.
There’s a joke in here somewhere about an evil weather machine....

Of course, he's a dunce. As Bush's brain, Rove was responsible for destroying Bush's presidency and giving us 4 years of Zero. He's also responsible for turning the GOP into a laughing-stock.
I've always rather enjoyed using words to paint mind-pictures... and then I read this...
LOL. Ouch.
(_8(|) ...DOH!!!
this was not a “booboo.”
Precisely. The way it runs now, and has for too long, it doesn't matter who wins, the two parties are the only ones at the table slicing up the pie. If this New Breed, committed to ending "Business As Usual," is given voice by people energized by a "Throw Out ALL The Bums" ethos, then their whole shell game ends HERE and NOW.
There is no lie too great, no backstabbing of principle to vile, to prevent this New Breed from stripping them of their POWER.
While the New Breed is America's only hope, it is also the Status Quo's arch villain. Rove is a warrior for the Status Quo.
Buh-bye, Karl. ;-/
Yep. There's nothing "next." That'll do just fine.
"For Gods sake people get a grip"
Of what? Tell us what other reason makes sense for him to do this. The accusations are already documented as false. So why keep up the lies now that she's won? What "other" explanation is there? America's waiting...
;-/
Sorry, it was impossible to miss the anger and vitriol from Rove that night.
It was ushered in by a totally ridiculous attack by Dana Perino right before.
Her attack? Dana said that O’Donnell had the nerve to compare herself to Reagan and she isn’t any Reagan.
What was COD sin? well....she had answered the naysayers by saying that people always said Reagan could not win.
That is not comparing herself to Reagan on a personal basis, it was merely a way to say that she knows that she could win in spite of the naysayers.
I do believe the lack of sanity rests at the feet of the sour grapes losers.
For petes sake, COD won by a big margin and there have been no claims of the results being tainted.
If you want to talk character flaws, Castle, Rove, Charles, Perino, have displayed some of the worst flaws since the O’Donnell win.
You're whistling past Karl's headstone, and you know it. Dissembling simply doesn't become you. Stop it. It is ugly, but the first step needed to cure a deadly disease is to admit to the problem. Making 3rd grade excuses for Karl isn't going to save him, his time has come and gone.
Get the ice floe, he's outlived his usefulness and is now giving aid and comfort to the enemy. There's just too much at stake to continue playing footsie with the cabal.

Rove was a strong backer of Bush’s “compassionate conservatism” which sold the conservatives down the river.
When G.W.Bush became pres he had both houses of congress as did obammy.
course obammy has tried to remake America in his marxist image while Bush failed to do much of anything for the conservative cause.
Sooo in reality which president has been more successful pushing their agenda?
Obammy of course but then Bush and Rove Never really were conservativees.
Precisely my point. That, plus the fact that everything they have against her is a string of trumped up lies or outright manipulations. Karl, we never knew ye.
;-/
Well put. I'll do the same.
;-/
A Boo boo is a mistake you make one time. Benedict Rove has continued his attacks on three separate occasions. His words will be used by Christine's opponent. Maybe to her downfall. Rove's a traitor to the Conservative Cause.
Old saying: “When the treason is over, the traitor is no longer needed - by either side.”
