Karl Rove Says Christine O'Donnell Needs to Explain Witchcraft 'Dabbling' to Voters
AOL News ^ | 19/9/10 | Bruce Drake

Posted on 09/19/2010 1:16:35 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Karl Rove, political mastermind for former President Bush, said Sunday that Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party insurgent who won an upset victory in Delaware for the GOP Senate nomination, "can't simply ignore" the controversy stirred over the disclosure that she "dabbled in witchcraft" and has to find a way to "explain it and put it in its most sympathetic light and move on." "In southern Delaware, where there are a lot of church-going people, they're probably going to want to know what was that all about," Rove said on Fox News Sunday. "And again, she said it on television when she went on the ... the Bill Maher show." Rove was referring to an October 1999 appearance O'Donnell made on Maher's "Politically Incorrect" show where she said," I dabbled into witchcraft -- I never joined a coven... One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar, and I didn't know it." O'Donnell had been on Maher's show frequently in the 1990s, and Maher has said he is going to show an O'Donnell clip each week until she agrees to appear again.

“Karl Rove, political mastermind for former President Bush”

That was the legend; but what was the truth?

For eight years, President Bush endured unspeakable ridicule. To some degree, he showed class and dignity in not responding to the MSM vitriolic attacks, but there were other situations where he would have been justified in kicking **ss, cowboy style.

Karl should shut up for a few weeks and return after Nov 2, with an apology.

“Karl Rove needs to explain why he wants Coons to win the election.”

Karl Rove sure acts like a double agent in this regard. Maybe he’s being blackmailed by the DNC...or maybe he’s on the Saudi Payroll. Who knows?

I think it’s personal with Rove.

Perhaps he got turned down by Christine for a coffee date.
she’s single. he’s now single.

Otherwise I can’t explain it.

Just a thought. The Democrats are going to go after her on this issue. Rove attacking her may take actually relieve some of the pressure of the Dems attacks.Just saying “I agree with Karl Rove” has got to stick in their throats.

Remember when Rove demanded that Obama explain his membership on the Amerca-hating, Jew-hating, whitey-hating church?

Remember when he demanded explanations for Obama’s connections with domestic terrorists?

Remember when Rove demanded explanations for Obama’s overtly Marxist policies?

You don’t? Neither do I.

The Republican “establishment” will do a great job at self mutilation may that be scandals, ensuring their base is uninspired with their self described leaders they push on those that vote conservative or their willingness to tear the nonchosen ones (Palin, Christie....) down and eat their own or throw them under the bus (Delay) at every turn.

The Republican victory will be less than what it could be BECAUSE of folks like Rove that just don't get it. The ones that think they need to choose a leader behind closed doors for their voters; you know, like Bob Dole, John McCain, George Bush.........

I don’t know if “boys” dabbled like girls did, but I don’t remember ANY of us girls who didn’t.

As an adult female, there is NO WAY IN HECK I would ever go near that cr@p!

"Karl Rove needs to explain his relevance."

Those entrenched in power resent it when their "right" to power is brought into question. Thomas Jefferson saw this over two hundred years ago and warned us about it. Somehow the message has been lost by far too many.

She was just putting a hex on the RATs:

1 WITCH. Thrice the brinded cat hath mew’d.
2 WITCH. Thrice and once, the hedge-pig whin’d.
3 WITCH. Harpier cries:—’tis time! ‘tis time!
1 WITCH. Round about the caldron go;
In the poison’d entrails throw.—
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one;
Swelter’d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot!
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg, and owlet’s wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
3 WITCH. Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches’ mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin’d salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg’d i the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver’d in the moon’s eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar’s lips;
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver’d by a drab,—
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger’s chaudron,
For the ingrediants of our caldron.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Cool it with a baboon’s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.

Rove is proving that he is nothing but a small, petty, turd with lips.

I played a little D&D and had a general interest in the Occult as a teenager. Long time ago.

Maybe Rove can come over to my house and yell at me some.

Must be nice being a perfect Christian and Conservative since birth. That Dude must sleep well at night.
