They showed it again on Brit Hume's show. I didn't catch it the first time, either. hillary and her husband are pure evil. The new game plan is to paint the entire party as racist..I don't think this will work. I think it will backfire on the RATS.

I disagree. I think the media love Rove and hate Bush. By making Rove look like 'the man', it makes Bush looks less like an independent thinker and leader.

rintense, there have been so many articles written that have been absolutely filled with nastiness towards Rove. However, I will agree with you on one point. The media seeks to undermine President Bush by giving Rove more credit than he deserves but if the media didn't have Rove, they would use Cheney or Rice. Rove has been loyal to this President for 27 years. Is he perfect 100% of the time? No, but even the RATS call him a political genius (anonymously, of course. I just think you are being way too hard on the guy. The RATS hate him but I bet they wish he was on thier side. This President doesn't need anybody to tell him what to do. He will listen to all and then make his own decision. Period.

I am curious. You have often said you can't stand Rove. Can you document a reason, as in an article or statement not put out by liberal reporters citing "anonymous sources?"

Or is this just based on a gut feeling? And if it is so, why do you feel this way?

Honestly, it's all based on my gut. I'm not sure why, and I have a keen sense for these things. I dunno. It's just one of those things that has to proven wrong. But you know how disillusioned I have been with Bush during this whole Lott thing. Thankfully, it's over and we can move on.

You are right. Lott did everything he could to invent amo for the Dems. I am wondering if Hillary isn't pulling his chain.

I told you all so, didn't I? .... By this time next month, public opinion polls will reflect that Bill Frist is as bad a "racist" as Trent Lott ever was.

Doubtful. My bet is that by this time next week those same polls will reveal that the majority of the electorate resents this blatant attempt by the Dems to jam the race card their throats. The American people are wise to this game by now.

Unfortunately, Republicans are overly concerned about their public image. Worried about not appearing to be "mean-spirited." Demonrats don't give a rats ass about their image. They say and do anything they like. They play hard-ball. With hand-grenades. Republican political figures play soft-ball. Always on the defensive. Hopefully, some day they will wake up and play the same game the Rats play. And beat them at their own game.

I see things very differently than you, my friend. I think, instead: THANK GOD we are not playing their game, otherwise we'd be just the kind of slime they are. No thanks.

Some of the Democratic party election 2000 tactics for 'getting out the black vote':

Crafting the mailings constituted a challenge, because Gore generated only tepid support among African Americans and George W. Bush proved a difficult man to demonize. And so Democrats did what they so often do when it comes to the black vote: They called the Republicans racist. One flyer featured Bush against the backdrop of a Confederate flag. Mail on behalf of Corzine said his opponent, Bob Franks, "thinks it's OK to teach our kids in trailers" and "will be hazardous to your family's health." But the most effective piece of mail sent to black voters targeted a Republican who isn't even running this year: It showcased the infamous picture of a smiling Whitman frisking a black man with his arms spread against a wall. "Republicans Like Governor Whitman Think Racial Profiling Is a Joke," the caption read. Link


Just after the Florida election drama drew to a close, an African-American staffer for one of the Republican House leaders was having a Christmas dinner with his family, when his twelve-year-old niece asked this question: "Now that Bush has been elected President, am I going to be treated as three-fifths of a human being?"

The same anecdote with slight variations has been reported from all ends of the country. A teacher at a rural black elementary school in South Carolina e-mailed me that her students were asking the same question as the staffer's niece, and also whether - since Bush was now President -- they would be made slaves again. In the April 30th issue of The Weekly Standard, Eric Cohen reports taking a group of black fourth and fifth graders from a Washington housing project to an outing in the nation's capital. The trip was taken just after the Inauguration. A few days earlier, a man had been arrested for firing shots at the White House. Cohen asked the children what they thought of their new President:

"When I heard about the shooting I was pretty happy," said one of the boys with a laugh. "I thought Bush might have got shot." Other comments were just as bitter,

"President Bush is going to put us all back in slavery."

"He's going to round up all the black people and kill them."

Where on earth could these black youngsters be getting ideas like that? The Democratic Party perhaps? The Democratic Party's presidential candidate? The leadership of the Civil Rights movement? The inescapable answer is: all three.

It was the Democratic Party and the NAACP ... How Leftists Play the Race Card Against Conservatives

No. I was one who insisted that it was never about Lott in the first place, one who was ashamed at how we left Lott hanging out to dry, and left a perfect opening for the feckless Dems to exploit for the next two years.

What I UNDERSTAND is that many of you had problems with Lott, period, way before this, and myopically saw it as a chance to get rid of him.

Well, you did. Congratulations.

Now, as I said, when you see the Republican ship dead in the water for the next two years, unable to get anything done because of emboldened Dems, and cowering, "please-don't-call-me-a-racist" Pubbie politicians, please remember that

Illbay Told You So!

No. A PROBLEM occurred when Lott opened his mouth.

The CRISIS occurred when the press started reading off the Dem talking points about Lott's comment (please note that the comment didn't even get play in the media until several days later).

The FAILURE occurred when the Pubbies ran for the tall grass and left Lott to fend for himself, aiding and abetting his getting in deeper and deeper until he was promising them the moon.

NOW the Dems will claim that Lott was gotten rid of, NOT because of what he said at Thurmond's birthday party, but because AFTERWARD he was willing to pick up the Affirmative Action banner and hold it high.

THIS, they will say, is the REAL story, and "PROVES" the endemic racism of the Republicans.

The Republicans couldn't have handled it worse if James Carville had been scripting it.
