Karl Rove: Obama is a "great symbol of what America's all about."
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/11/05/karl-rove-reacts-to-obama_n_141253.html

Karl Rove reacted to Barack Obama's win Tuesday night on Fox News, saying "every American ought to celebrate tonight."

"It is a hopeful and optimistic thing for our country, and for the world it's a great symbol of what America's all about," Rove said, urging all Americans to hope and pray for Obama's success.

Rove's comments did center on race, and the post-racial America Obama inherits as President. He also claimed that "we've had an African American first family for many years," citing the Cosby Show as one example.

"He is young, he is aspirational, and Americans have invested a lot in him, but they still have doubts," Rove said. "He's got a big hurdle to climb."

What a putrid little opportunist scumbag he is.

Hasselbeck, Lieberman, and every libertarian who still pretends that they give a rats ass about MLK's dream.

Predictable, but still disgusting.

You, on the other hand, are a symbol of everything that's ever sucked about American politics. So shut up and slither back into your hole, cause your reign is OVER.

hooray for that,
