What is your opinion of Karl Rove?
Do you believe David Kuo, former deputy director of the White House office of faith-based initiatives, that Karl Rove called Evangelicals "nuts" and failed to support their initiatives?
I don't see why he would make it up, but maybe you have other ideas?

The Republican Party treats the Evangelicals like the Democratic Party treats Blacks.

Book sales will skyrocket with every such revelation, so yes, there is a great reason why he'd make up such a thing. But what of it? Let's say it's true - I have yet to meet a large group of any type of organization wherein some of the members can't be described as being 'nuts.' There's always a few wackos in every group.

I have no reason to believe this report at this particular point in time close to an election. So I outright dismiss it.

Keep in mind this is the Guardian that is printing this.The context of the book and all quotes should be verified first.

What is "our" opinion of Karl Rove?
He is a brilliant man that is making fools out of the fools at du and the demonrat party.
Never heard of David Kuo, sounds like he is just out to sell his book. Most likely just a nut job that went over to the dark side.

In a book entitled Tempting Faith: an Inside Story of Political Seduction, to be published on Monday, Mr Kuo portrays the Bush White House's commitment to evangelical causes as little more than a cynical facade designed to win votes.

BS! Bush has opened up monies for faith based organizations and is appointing conservatives to the Supreme Court. That is called backing up the talk with results.
That book is nothing more than someone looking for the easy $$$ bucks!

If Bush and Rove were truly sincere, they would be talking in tongues and handlin' snakes.

Welcome to FR. We however do not need a third party, just get rid of the demonrats.

"A former senior presidential aide has accused the Bush administration of using evangelical Christians to win votes but then privately ridiculing them once in office"
I seriously doubt the President would do this or keep company with those that do.

The Guardian snakes are trying to stick their fat little faces into our American political system by trying to influence the elections for Dummies.
