Rove attacked by Tea-Baggers in fundraising ad



A top tea party group is taking its clash with Karl Rove to a new level, sending out a fundraising email Tuesday featuring a photoshopped image of the GOP operative in an SS uniform. “Wipe the Smirk Off Karl Rove’s Face,” reads the subject line of the email, from Jenny Beth Martin, co-founder and national coordinator of the Tea Party Patriots. Tea party group pictures Rove as Nazi Tearing down the GOP echo chamber IRS accused of neglecting groups. The email features a photo illustration in which Rove’s face is grafted onto a photo of a uniformed officer in the Reichsführer-SS, an elite class of soldier in the German Schutzstaffel during Adolph Hitler’s Third Reich. The lower left-hand corner of the photo features the inscriptions “Reichsführer-SS” and “K. Rove,” and appears to match a photo of SS Reichsführer Heinrich Himmler.


They are starting to eat each other, I hope this is what Obama had hoped for. Although, many times it seems like Obama is giving into the GOP, in the end he seems to be at least 2-3 steps ahead of them.

And if Rove is the leader of the SS, good luck getting any further to the right than that.
