The war of words between conservatives and former Bush advisor Karl Rove has gone nuclear, this time over Rove's claim that he worked for Ronald Reagan's 1980 campaign and on a Reagan advisory board.
The bottom line: While Rove told The O'Reilly Factor Thursday that he worked for the Gipper, Reagan's acclaimed biographer Craig Shirley says there's no evidence to back Rove up.
Worse: In an email Shirley is sending to conservative leaders, he reveals that Rove backed former President Ford in 1976 and in 1980 worked for former Texas governor Clements who didn't back Reagan until after he was nominated.
Shirley penned the book about Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign, Rendezvous with Destiny, and today said he confirmed his research about Rove with several former Reagan campaign aides...

The shine is coming off the ‘Turd Blossom’.
Maybe next we’ll hear how Rove has Cherokee blood like a certain Massachusetts Senator...
This is as surprising as my Post Office mail showing up late at work.
Lard Butt Rove and Fat Boy Chris Christie could join forces and help revive McDonald’s sagging Big Mac sales.
The RINO-Way has failed to deliver.
To survive, the GOP must close the Big Tent and boot the RINOs out, ASAP!
It is sunset time for the RINOs, and as RINOs like Rove have shown, they will still snort and bellow long after sunset.
Just as Big Government is not part of the solution, but IS the problem, so too are the goals of the RINOs for those of us who want Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
The present sorry state of RINO Leaders such as the Esteemed Sobber of The House John Doormat Boehner is encapsulated in the Congressional RINO Mantra: We have to find a Bipartisan Compromise that will pass both Houses, and that Obama will sign.
This Congressional RINO Mantra is directly taken from The Buckley Rule which states: Support the most Conservative Candidate that can win.
IOW, the assumption of what is good or bad is not a factor for the Country or the GOP. The assumption is that one can discern what will be accepted by others is something that can be known before it is tried.
Thus, Obama or Reid can immobilize the RINO dominated US House of Representatives by just saying NO at a press conference to any idea that a RINO might propose.
The result is that only 3 people are needed to manage the US Federal Government: Senate, House and White House Leaders. Currently that is Reid, Boehner and Jarrett, respectively.
Hence, the RINOs have insured that the US Federal Government will not be good for America.
The RINOs have made it very easy for the Democrats to grind America to a halt.
By rejecting the RINOs Buckley Rule, the GOP will open the Party to Candidates that are good for the Party.
By rejecting the Congressional RINO Mantra, the US Congress will be open to political action that will override the current 3 leader stall, delay and deny political nightmare.
It is pointless to blame the Communists and Socialists in the US Federal Government, because they are just doing what Communists and Socialists do best: regulate, Control and DESTROY!
Between now and the National Election in 2014, the only obstacle that needs to be overcome is the RINO control of the Republican Party.
GAME ON RINO Karl Turd Blossom Rove, GAME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Proudly fly your Gadsden flag, and attend TO TAKE OVER your local RINO Doormat Party Meetings!

Ponder this:
IMHO , the worst Goal assumption is contained in the Buckley Rule: Support the most Conservative Candidate WHO CAN WIN.
The Gop-Elite IN the Party chose Dole, McCain and Romney. All lost, and all were not clear about what it was that they were trying to CONSERVE.
If one is going to play Basketball, then there had better be a lot of air in the ball, AND NO LIBERAL PATCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The enlarged letters are for effect: People IN the Party are usually wrong about how people OUTSIDE the Party will vote.
Dole, McCain and Romney were supported by the powers that be in the GOP because they COULD win! You bet! When pigs fly!
_______
The second point is the Me Too mentality of the GOP Elites who want to compete for the Democrats pool of Big Government voters.
Hence, the GOP has moved so far to the left, that the bulk of the GOP is far to the left of JFK Democrats of 50 + years ago.
Without clear distinctions, the GOP will continue to be the fat kid Big Tent wanna-be Democrat that nobody will play with in the Schoolyard playground called The US Federal Government.

The GOP Elite try to lose big every 4 years - - - maybe they have learned that losing is a lot easier than winning?
If so, then WE are stupid for not learning that the Sun has already set on the RINO GOP Elite, the Buckley Rule and the RINO Congressional Mantra.

Hey why insult McDonald’s by using the names of Christie and Rove in the same sentence.
Rove will be working for the Charlie Crist campain pretty soon. LOL
Seems that the four-flushing Rove is quite the liar.
Love your graphic, he is a magnificently worthless bastard.
As the saying goes: Failure is an orphan. Success has a million Mothers. I guess Karl Rove is one of those Mothers.
I never liked both Bush'es and I never liked Karl Rove. But I am astute enough to recognize
Rove is not the real enemy. The real enemies are Obama-Reid-Pelosi-Clintons.
I spend all my resources opposing the real enemies.
Maybe Rove is sick in his head. Why would he make up a b.s. story that could be easily refuted? Maybe somebody should do some opposition research on him and find the skeletons in his closet. Do whatever it takes to make him shut up and disappear.
Interesting that Rove felt obliged to mention (or lie, we'll see if this is true or not) this tidbit about working on Reagan campaign, no?
How long must we endure this skid mark on the shorts of the conservative movement?
The GOP is dead Jim... dead.
For Conservatives that is.
They function now as the Judenrat for the MarxoFascists, Tokyo Rove doing the job Obama can’t do in forcing the betrayal of Conservative Principles in order for Conservatives to beg for political life before being herded into box cars to irrelevant camps.
Folks like Rove make it possible for more Dems to win by splitting the base and forcing crap RINO candidates down our throats. So Rove is a de facto ally of the Dem cabal. He sure as heck is no ally to conservatism.
I worked with Craig Shirley when he was at the Young Americans for Freedom office on Wilshire Blvd. in Los Angeles in the mid-1070’s—and I’ll vouch for his integrity.
