Karl Rove's Book of Lies (Nausea, vomiting and hallucination alert)
The Daily Beast ^ | March 2010 | paul begala

Posted on 03/14/2010 2:54:14 PM PDT by Titus-Maximus

The Bush guru's new memoir offers a brief and compelling personal narrative, followed by 500 pages of dishonesty and deception. Clinton strategist Paul Begala reviews the Bush presidency.

In writing his memoirs, Karl Rove faced a choice. He could reach for history: Fearlessly face the numerous failures of the Bush presidency, account for his role in the destruction of the American economy and a disastrous, dishonest war. Or he could play to his base: Deny everything, admit nothing, assert baldly that white is black.

Guess which path he chose?

I am not, I must admit, a fan of the political kiss-and-tell, so I don’t begrudge Rove a full-throated defense of the president he served. Nor am I part of the Democratic obsession with Rove. Karl was just the latest in a line that stretched from Carville and Atwater back to Willie Herndon, Lincoln’s political guru. I’ve always believed it’s better to focus on the organ grinder, not the monkey.

Paul Begala, the supposed Catholic pro-life political consultant, steps up with his book review. Talk about a hypocrite, he washed his hands in the blood of a million innocents. Turn in your Catholic ID card champ, you are a registered Democrat, who vows to destroy human life anywhere you can find it, especially in a womb, especially in an African-American neighborhood. Did you learn anything from MLK? Well did you, punk? You have no moral authority for anything, except maybe finding whores for Bill Clinton.

I would cut my hands off, if I were you. For someone calling for others to repent, you got some pair on you.

After this farrago of lies, read the comments by the writer called RevPettibone - he destroys this retromingent little creep, and it is quite entertaining.

I’d argue that the Daily Beast is becoming a “book of lies” in of itself.....

hmmm, considering that Begala has spent his life fellating Democrats, I long ago stopped paying attention to anything he has to say

Paul Begala is a person who basically accused people who voted for Bush in 2000 of being murderers. He wrote a column noting how the states that voted for Bush in 2000 was where many of the school shootings were taking place. Unfortunately for Begala it was not a week after that column came out that there was a shooting in PA. Thus, destroying Begala’s creddibility. Begala is a vile, lowly and trashy person. He is also the type of person who cant resist noting Rush Limbaugh’s drug treatment even though it happened atleast 7 plus years ago. I guess all of Begala’s friends must live pretty flawless lives.

Is this the same Paul Begala that had no idea, none, at all, in any way, that Silky Pony John Edwards was such a lying, conniving, sleazy narcissistic piece of trash? THAT Paul Begala?

If so, then he is full of shit.

The easiest way to get a liberal to go ballistic is to whisper softly in his/her ear these two words: "Carl Rove"

Works every time.

Henry Waxman finally admitted to Paul Sestak that the reason they support abortion is that they don’t believe we can afford any new life....This is the very definition of Eugenics—All of them are Nazi pigs that believe that they know more than the G-d of Abraham, Issac and Jacob (i.e. the Creator of the Universe.) G-d help them when they face Ultimate Justice.

If Paul Begala hates this book that badly, I may go buy a second copy...

Begala actually seems more fixated on the silly Plamegate episode than on the war.

I guess since your whispering it, spelling doesn't matter.

I guess Begala’s dear beloved boss, Bill Clinton was a huge liar too, because it was Clinton who passed the Iraq removal act with the express purpose of getting rid of Hussein by any means necessary...including war. Begala wouldn’t know the truth if if bit him in his kiester.
