2. Jack Nelson
puts most of the current "journalists" to shame. It's funny to hear the conservative callers trying to compare Clinton's wrongdoing as far worse than Nixon's, but Nelson doesn't let them get by with it.

Here is more info about Rove's Segretti/Nixon connections:

Exposing Karl Rove
by WAYNE MADSEN

"He's America's Joseph Goebbels. As a 21-year old Young Republican in Texas, Karl Rove not only pimped for Richard Nixon's chief political dirty tricks strategist Donald Segretti but soon caught the eye of the incoming Republican National Committee Chairman, George H. W. Bush. Rove's dirty tricks on behalf of Nixon's 1972 campaign catapulted Rove onto the national stage. From his Eagle's Nest in the West Wing of the White House, Rove now directs a formidable political dirty tricks operation and disinformation mill."

3. rove trained with the dirtiest of them
Lee Atwater and has gone on to surpass him. Atwater at least expressed his regrets on his death bed. Expect no remorse from rove even if he should go to jail. He's a truly warped individual.

Another worthy piece
