Karl Rove said Monday that Herman Cain has failed to properly respond to the POLITICO report that at least two women accused him of inappropriate behavior, saying he needs to say yes or no.
Hes not denying, but he aint responding and thats not the best place to be, Rove said on Fox News. If these allegations are not true, say they arent true and put it behind you. If not, better get everything out sooner rather than later because in a situation like this, if there is something there, that somethings going to come out. Continue Reading Text Size

Asked whether he considered the Cain campaigns response to the allegations as sufficient, the former George W. Bush strategist answered no, criticizing the decision to evade questions about whether there were ever any financial settlements with the women.
I think Geraldo had it right last night you simply cant say go talk to the National Restaurant Association and refuse to answer the question, Were there any monetary settlements involved in these things.....
Rove added, You cant simply say go ask, go talk to somebody else. You either need to say yes or no. And if no, say no immediately. Say absolutely or not and get on with it. But if youre sitting there saying go talk to somebody else, its not going to help you.

I believe people like Tokyo Rove get a fixed fee from Fox for being "Fox contributors." In addition, I believe operatives like Tokyo Rove get from GOP powers-that-be bonuses (contract fees, if you will) for every conservative character they successfully assassinate.
For example, after Rove helped sink Angle and O'Donnell last November, Christmas 2010 was very, very, very good at the Rove household.
The Murkowski race in Alaska was another one that made me livid. The establishment is putrid and openly feasting on the nation’s carcass. If Karl Rove and his ilk walked into a room I think I would leave in protest.
I’m tellin’ ya. Rove & Co. did this. Been saying it all day.
If there was a deal made with these women it certainly would have included an agreement of confidentiality. If the women were the sources for Politico, they should have to give back the money from the deal they made because they broke the terms of the agreement. If the women aren’t the sources, then Politico needs to be asked who IS their source.
The whole thing reminds me of the kid who tattles on the other kid whose eyes were open during the prayer. The wise dad asks the tattle-tale how he knew the others had their eyes open...
Somebody should ask Rove directly. And should have a polygraph attached to him when he answers. lol
If they were the source, they need to be outed. They need to learn first-hand the politics of personal destruction

I am so glad you had a camera with you to snap that historic moment. I was thinking this is where he came from, what he is, but you got the actual photographic evidence proving it, and for this I am grateful.
Love your post and writing.
Rove doesn’t seem to remember that no one cared when Clinton dropped his pants and told a woman to kiss it......DID THAT MATTER, YOU IDIOT ROVE!!!! ??? Do you REALLY think that Cain is even a fraction like that woman-hater/abuser CLINTON?????? or that he frequents the bathhouses and men like ZERO???? Democrats DON’T CARE about private lives—remember that, so this is a non issue even if Cain dropped his pants....which he DIDN’T do!
Rove needs to STFU! Cain has greater character than most people in Wash. DC, including you, Rove, so you shouldn’t be throwing stones. You are evil. Go back to the Bohemian Grove and cavort with the serving boys and offer sacrifices to your god, the great architect of the world, Baal.
Cain wasn’t blinking his eyes twice a second like on this morning’s Fox interview, but he was licking his lips like crazy in the tough parts of his interview with Greta. Both classic signs of lying.
I personally would also like to know if Gov. Palin came to Herman's defense, since a) nearly every conservative radio host I have heard things this is a horrid, groundless attack ginned up by Politico and evil forces, and b) Sarah Palin was slimed by the very same Politico "JOURNOlist", Jonathon Martin. (Whom she a year ago on Glenn Beck's show called a "jerk". ) Did anyone catch her tweet or press statement about this conundrum??
that little turd
Perhaps Cain should handle this like Rove handled the Libby case or the WMD issue. He has no credibility to give anybody advice.

I think it is past time someone start questioning Rove about what his ties are to specific campaigns.
He claims to be an “objective” commentator. Fine, then let him clear up the questions about his contacts with other GOP Candidates campaigns
The other thing credible journalists might want to press Rove to clear up just what his role was in the robo-call smear campaign against John McCain in South Carolina prior to the 2000 GOP primary.
Rove needs to put these questions to bed by releasing any documentation he has clearing up the allegations that he staged that the smear job against McCain.
(Note to the Rovebots, how do you like being on the receiving end of your own media tactics for a change?)
Nice try Rovebot. Time to run back to your master and warn him his stupidity may just buy the GOPEstablishement a 3rd party challenger from the Tea party in 2012
