Now I will say a proper hello.

Good afternoon/evening snugs. Thank you for the early Dose. I love "The Many Faces of George W. Bush"!

I also love how the WH is standing behind Rove. He only cited what is known to be true and they have the docs. to back it up! hehe

My pleasure

Hi snugs, Rove Rules

[snugs]

Indeed he is I always think of the photo with the little where he was listening intently to what she was saying as if it was the most important conversation in the world.

[snugs]

What is the full story as I said above only caught snippets as I prepared the dose.

[CAluvdubya]

I would have to paraphrase ( I sure someone can find his statements). Rove was talking about how the liberals wanted to react to 9-11 versus the Republicans. The dems took offense and some want an apology from Rove (to counter Durbin), some want an apology from the WH, and others want Rove to resign. Ridiculous!

FNC and Carl Cameron were just documents from Moveon.org backing up Rove's statements.

[txrangerette]

Rove made a speech to a conservative group in New York, speaking of September 11th, and said that conservatives saw the twin towers ablaze and going down, and they knew we were at war, whereas liberals saw the same thing and started talking about legal proceedings and being more understanding of the kind of people who attacked us. Not one time did he say "Democrats" reacted this way, only liberals. Well, leading Democrats, including Hillary and many others, started screaming "how dare he!" at Rove, demanding he retract his statements or else resign. This is so funny and so telling, b/c all of them are openly admitting they are LIBERALS, by reacting to what he said about liberals, not Democrats. And in America, openly admitting you're a liberal does not help you politically except in a few liberal districts or states.

Right. I think he even said that the libs wanted to get the terrorists therapy, to better understand their problems.
