1. A paraphrase
"Republicans responded to 9/11 by wanting revenge, Democrats wanted to offer understanding and therapy" - not an exact quote, but that's basically what he said.

2. Didn't you hear?
It was a DEM who kept implying Saddam was behind 911!
It was a DEM who fixed the facts around the policy!
It was a DEM who said we knew where the WMD were!
It was a DEM who insured the post-War plans would work!
It was a DEM who said we'd be greeted as liberators!
It was a DEM who managed the reconstruction!

3. Rove said the following at an event in NYC:


(P)erhaps the most important difference between conservatives and liberals can be found in the area of national security. Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers.

Dick Durbin says our troops are nazi storm troopers using gestapo tactics despite orders to treat all detainees with compassion and lots of chicken.

Outraged republicans demand that Durbin beg for forgiveness.

Dick Durbin apologizes for saying that everyone who voted Republican has a secret nazi detention camp in their basement. He tearfully agrees to say anything Mayor Daley tells him to say.

Karl Rove says that liberals want to hug and kiss terrsts and make nice to them until they make nice to us while good fascists like Karl want to round them up in detention centers and torture them until they tell us that they like the chicken.

Some Democratics publicly wonder if Karl misspoke.

The Iraq war continues to go badly, oil prices are going up up up, bush and republican poll numbers are going terminal. Any questions?

7. Thanks!
It is amazing that in a country of 296,446,595 "we" get fixated on one single person we'll never meet and has absolutely no influece over our lives.
