THE ISSUE: Karl Rove's recent comments on how liberals responded to 9/11.
Sen. Dick Durbin calls the U.S. military no better than Nazis, Stalinists and the Cambodian mass murderer Pol Pot. Response from the Democratic leadership: near silence. Rove says the Democratic response to the 9/11 attacks on the U.S. was wimpy. Democratic leadership response: apoplexy. I think Rove understated the case. Gerard Browne Jersey City, N.J.

Rove spoke the truth at the Conservative's annual dinner the other night. Thank God for people like Rove, who tell it like it is. Stewart Lara Manhattan

To the differences between conservatives and liberals outlined by Rove, I would add the following: Conservatives are unafraid to confront reality, while liberals are fearful and unable to recognize what is real. Paul Bloustein Cincinnati, Ohio

Rove makes a truthful statement about liberals and 9/11 to a group of conservatives, and Democrats in the Senate are "outraged." That in itself tells you all you really need to know about today's Democrats. James Ahlfeld Larchmont

Fast-forward to those "offended" by his remarks and they are now self-identified liberals; a moniker they're loathe to accept in most public scenarios.
I say great job Mr. Rove!
You can always tell if you're making a difference by the enemies you make in the process.
Please keep up the great work, sir!
About time liberals were "marked" with the dreaded "L"......after all we've endured being labeled the VRWC.
They picked the wrong horse for revenge. The Democrats hissy fit is only making them look worse.

Pataki settled it best regarding the dems 'outrage'.
I am supporting Karl Rove for president in '08.
Brilliant triple play by Karl----bigtime labeling of libs, reinforcing and prolonging the Durbin debacle and, getting the libs undies in a twist.
It sure upset Hillary, she almost crapped in "Old Crusty".
Are you kidding? Hell, I consider that title to be the greatest compliment that these liberal weenies can lay on someone.
Another Freeper observed that his Grand Dad would say:
"When you trow a stone into a pack of howling dogs, the one that barks the loudest is the one you hit."
Mr. Rove, speaking to the New York State Conservative Party on Wednesday, said: "Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers."
Karl Rove just undressed all the liberal Senators and Representatives with his remark. What a political genius we have on OUR side.
I gotta write that down---LOL.
It's so annoying, isn't it, that it takes the dense libs so damn long to "get it"......on the other hand, it does answer a lot of questions of history.
The reaction is very telling...sometimes truth hurts.
Thought free speech belonged to every citizen...guess free speech is okay if the democrats like what one says.
Believe Mr. Rove is very truthful in what he said...he
backed it up with various samples.
My main focus when voting is always; who do I trust to keep us safe and stand up for this country...not appease every tom,dick&harry in the world...that answer is the
Republicans not the radical democratic party of appeasement.
JMO my humble opinion.
That sums it up.
