I've never used a subject line like this before but, unbelievably, this appeared today on AOL:

Montauk Monster: This otherworldly looking creature found on a New York beach July 13 has been called an alien, a science experiment gone bad, even "how I imagine Karl Rove looks on the inside." Some dismiss it as a decomposing pug or turtle without a shell. Click through for more animal mysteries.

On edit: Since when does AOL speak poorly of Herr Rove?

1. Whatever it is I feel sorry for it. Sad photo. n/t

[PCIntern]

2. Yes...but

it's the comment about ROVE that caught my eye...

3. Its a dog.

Its really hard to tell in this picture, but there are other angles that I have seen that make it obvious.

13. I've seen a photo from one other angle and agree with you -- it's a dog

It's probably a pitbull or bulldog of some kind. Whatever, it did not have a happy death judging by the bruises all over it and the tether binding its front legs.

And humans have the arrogance to claim they're superior to other animals. Not when it comes to its lust for premeditated, pointless savagery I'm afraid.

4. Escapee from Plum Island?

Plum Island is a noted biological research facility nearby to Montauk.

5. I read Lab 257 a few years ago about the USDA Lab on Plum Island

scary stuff...

7. Am I the only person here who finds it 'funny'that AOL,

which has been very happy to allow any excuse from this Maladministration, actually published a statement that this is what KARL ROVE LOOKS LIKE ON THE INSIDE?

9. No, I agree with you

It is rather startling that aol would allow it.

8. It's a dead dog.

Seems really obvious to me.
