A little frisky are we today!

I had convinced myself while putting together the preview that Rove's appearances would be same-old same-old, with no real push back to the dinosaur media "narrative."  When the reports started coming in about how that wasn't the case I got... enthused, shall we say.

Edwards: I didn’t trust George Bush, but I voted to give him authority for the Iraq war anyway. Now I regret that vote. HClinton: Me to. And I would never have provoked this war with Iraq.

Which demonstrates why both are too incompetent to be President of the US

I've posted this here before, but any mention of that speach prompts me to do it again.  It is one of the most prophetic, awe insipring and faith filled speeches I've ever heard a politician give.

I made up a "poster" (just a Word doc on a color printer which I printed for my office wall) of the last section of President George W. Bush's first inaugural Address.
After the Declaration of Independence was signed, Virginia statesman John Page wrote to Thomas Jefferson: ``We know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm?''

Much time has passed since Jefferson arrived for his inauguration. The years and changes accumulate. But the themes of this day he would know: our nation's grand story of courage and its simple dream of dignity.

We are not this story's author, who fills time and eternity with his purpose. Yet his purpose is achieved in our duty, and our duty is fulfilled in service to one another.

Never tiring, never yielding, never finishing, we renew that purpose today, to make our country more just and generous, to affirm the dignity of our lives and every life.

This work continues. This story goes on. And an angel still rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm.

George W. Bush's Inaugural Address. January 20, 2001

Hillary gets the first question. Hillary gets the last word. Time for Obama to get those 1984 ads back onto YouTube.

Absolutely, we are way to polite to all these Bozos! We need someone who will come out with fire in his/her britches and tell the drivers-by how it is.

As far as I know he is. I doubt he would consider any of the current bunch of leftists in that party worthy of support.

It certainly does appear the people in NYC and NJ live in a world of their own, devoid of reason and apart from the rest of the country.

did you notice that Wallace specifically asked Rove about Matt Cooper? During the MTP roundtable Cooper effectively called Rove a liar and talked about Rove “leaking” Valerie Plame to him. I’m betting that the MTP stuff was filmed before the FNS interview and that someone privy to what Cooper said sent a message to Wallace to get him to pose that question.

If their intention was to trap Karl Rove saying something that could be used against him in court could they be charged with criminal conspiracy?

He is....tada....the Attorney General of Delaware.

On this contest the pubbies ran a damn good candidate against him. They ran Ferris Wharton, the prosecutor for the Thomas Capano case. Who is still alive by the way and whenever I ask a Delaware RINO why he didn’t get the death penalty given him fair and square, they look at me blankly. “He’ll never be put to death,” they tell me, as if hey, this is okay. Here in Delaware we just PRETEND to have the death penalty. How they do this is they give a criminal the DP and THEY NEVER PUT HIM OR HER TO DEATH.

Anyway, this Ferris Wharton, I liked him and he almost won against Beau. Beau Biden failed the law exam three times and had NO criminal law experience, either defense or prosecutorial. anyway, scuttlebutt is that his name carried him through. DUH.

Just a few weeks ago, Ferris Wharton, whose bumper sticker I still have on my Jeep, got into some big time law problems and ended up being chased, drunk and behind the wheel, all over the county. We got a real problem with pubbies drinking themselves silly in this state....some hair raising tales I could tell you. All also involving ME, not that I’m proud of that. but I did help getting one kicked out and the pubbies won the re-election, yes they did.

So maybe it’s best Wharton didn’t get elected although he and his mama boohooed all over the place after it was over.

Hey, they love Beau in this state. They think he’s cute and the pubbies all tell you what a good job he does.

HE’S A DEMOCRAT!

Not that there’s much difference in the state of Delaware. He did stop by to see me at the booth at the state fair (Delaware has the absolute BEST state fair of the two or three I’ve been to) and he is a nice fellow.

BUT HE’S A DEMOCRAT.

Gotta couple of people asking me to run for Governor. Not to worry, I’ve no intention of doing so. I know I am too politically incorrect for such a thing. But I WILL, yes I will, support a candidate, preferably a female because I still have issues with how conservative males treat females, but I will do everything in my power to support a candidate that believe in what I believe. Even a male. Our current governor is a female and she’s awful.

In fact, they have a male candidate lined up and even though those cherished delegates go on and on about how independent they are, one of those “independent” delegates stepped up and nominated one Alan Levin, the owner of Delaware’s infamous “Happy Harry’s” drug store.

I don’t know much about this guy but so far I like him. He ran a very sucessful business (now all sold to Walgreens) and also worked for a Senator Roth for a couple of years as Chief of Staff. He sounds like a fine candidate to me and once I get to see and hear him talk and if he sounds okay, I will support him to the cows come home.

Hint....those big businesses I work for down here KNOW this guy and will support him vigorously. Of course my endorsement will help....heh.

But no, I ain’t been sitting on my rear end, never mind that comment. I’m determined to change the dynamic of the Republican party in this country even if I am just one little ant trying to bring down a big rubber tree plant.

Hadn’t thought about it in that way. That is very interesting.

Slimeballs are all in bed together and Hillary is fluffing the pillows.

If Rove were a Democrat, the drive-by TV networks would be lined up offering him his own show.

Very observant, and very true.

I'm surprise our Jedi Council hasn't picked up on this.

Consider how many ex-Clinton administration officials get picked up by major DBMs, also, those of Democratic Congress peeps, and not one would want a Rove?

Another bullet in our 6-shooter when the DBM insist they're not biased towards the Liberals/Dems.

Clinton may be a target of Rove's reverse psychology

Thanks, johnny7. Great link. Reading Bob Shrum's political "strategy" is akin to paying attention to Ambrose Burnside's (Civil War general who never won a battle, and was in charge of some of the biggest military disasters in history) military "strategy." The drive-bys probably would have hired Burnside as a "military expert commentator."
