Karl Rove is the most overblown political advisor of our time...

DISCUSS!

1. When all else fails. . .Diebold!

He cultivates hate. He is Rush Limbaugh without the daily show, and no doubt the puppeteer for Rush and Hannity. Rove isn't "political." He is diabolical, and unredeemably evil. W. is just a tool to him. Like Rush, he was no doubt picked on when young, and now takes his revenge by controlling the "popular boy" (Bush), as Rush seethes with resentment against the popular boy he can't control (Clinton). They are bizarre psychological studies, and in many ways the same.

2. Lets see

Overblown political advisor :rofl:
One dumb ass of an advisor
He goes where Angel Fear to Tread.

Instant gains. Longterm disaster.
Very very impressive but who left holding the bag. :rofl: The DUMB ELEPHANT.

[MadMaddie]

3. The truth is (and I mean no insult to anyone) but Rove is the

pudgy kid in school who got picked on..
and through the lack of character her learned to manipulate people, he lied, he destroyed people, he cheated....he did whatever had to do to win.

He didn't grow up out of the phase...he takes glee in destroying the fabric of America by placing false barriers within and between communities, races, political parties....

Well I hope he gets his in the end.....and I mean that literally!!!

5. But it wouldn't have worked if he didn't also scare people into

playing along and not calling the lies. With a strong independent press, he wouldn't have made it past the whisper campaign against Ann Richards.

4. I am not so sure. From 70 to under 30 in a few years is something

not every one can do. Seems there is only a few people in his job that has done that kind of a job. Bush should give him the freedom medal or something.

[niceypoo]

6. I agree......he is a disaster for Bush

Under Roves tutelage Bush has bumbled from one debacle to the next for five years running....

[opihimoimoi]

7. Rove found a way to cheat lie steal and now the results come up

for review...Bush is the President...having gotten there by Rovesque shenanigans...

But,.....

BushCo is a failure as a President.

Once esconced in the Oval Office...he was supposed to deliver....that he did but to whom?

Not to Hot Dog and Beer America...thats fer sure....

Even the PUBs wanna dump da dude....

[Skittles]

8. what's to discuss?

his "genius" is that he is able to use slimeball tactics that woud turn any decent person's stomach

[threadkillaz]

9. true.

His client is at 29%.

Blew it.

[cosmik debris]

11. His client

Is president of the United States. A lot of political advisers would love be in that position. To use a baseball analogy, Rove won the World Series twice in a row. And now that his team has declined you seem to think he is a loser. How many other political advisers are there out there who have a track record of success as long as Rove's. Sure he is a hateful evil human being, but he knows how to win elections. Especially against Dems.

14. His client...

wouldn't still be president if it weren't for the Terror Attacks of 2001.

[threadkillaz]

10. true.

cool, duped again.

[Timmy5835]

12. Rove is a..............

....one trick pony. That's all.

[chat_noir]

13. Rove is the master of the press release

Rove is the master of the press release, where timing is sometimes more important than content. Giving the press a small, inoculation dose of the truth before bad news is due is his forte. It worked to diffuse George W. Bush's dismal Vietnam record, and the candidates history of an on-off again relationship with the Texas Air National Guard. In that case, Rove managed to muddy the waters enough to sink venerable CBS anchor, Dan Rather, while never refuting the point at issue. Letting slip an enticing confirmation of his impending imprisonment, however temporarily, over a weekend preceding a Monday Presidential address, allowing a couple of days of denials to cast doubt on the story (just another liberal conspiracy theory), is just his style. In this case though, I imagine it's Karl Rove's last straw.

15. If lying and controlling media makes one a genius, then he is a genius.

It is a shame what our standards for "genius" have become.

He lies, then the media dutifully repeats his lies as facts. Some call it "genius."

It works, whether it is genius or not is a matter of standards.

16. Turd Blossom

stands for shit for brains.

He really is overestimated, quite a bit. He's nothing more than that kleptomaniac from high school that stuffed the ballot box at the prom for the girl he was stalking that week.

He's been trying to get out of that one ever since.

[CJCRANE]

17. Near 70% disapproval for his client.

So, yes I agree.

[KansDem]

18. This sounds like a Rovian plot!

Rove is purposely circulating the rumor that he is the most overblown political adviser of our time! We won't know what his intention is until he laughs in our faces and then, it will be too late!

:sarcasm:

I agree, he is definitely overblown. If anything, he's reading his own press releases.
