Rove: "They had to roll Clinton out of the operating room"

Karl Rove, Bush's chief political adviser, spoke dismissively of Clinton's scene-stealing pairing with Kerry. Seven weeks after quadruple bypass heart surgery, Clinton joined Kerry at a Philadelphia rally that packed cheering supporters shoulder-to-shoulder along three city blocks.

"They had to roll Clinton out of the operating room and onto the campaign trail in order to basically help Kerry with the weaknesses he has among core Democratic constituencies," Rove said, taking liberties with his depiction of the former president as a near-invalid.

Sounds like sour grapes to me!!! :grr:

[lil-petunia]

1. What a creep. I have no use for asses like that.

[helpisontheway]

39. he must be terrified to come out of his

rat hole.

[rooboy]

2. At least Clinton didn't have to sit under AF1 to make a headline. n/t

[Rose Siding]

3. Gee, it's not like Karl to get so maliciously personal

KIDDING!!!

[doctor klahn]

4. This makes me sick, Rove is

such a dirtbag.

[goddess40]

5. They can run but they can't win

They'll get nastier before the 2nd because they know they are going to lose.

[caledesi]

37. That's right. They are SO desperate! nt

[yellowcanine]

6. Uh-Karl-the surgery was 7 weeks ago - go have another Twinkie.

[KharmaTrain]

7. Uh...Herr Karl...Whatcha Doin' With Raygun's Corpse???

Methinks he doest protest too much these days, but as an astute observer friend of mine has stated, the fact that Rove is visible means things are going badly for Bunnypants. His message isn't getting out the way he wants it and has to do the dirty work himself.

They're starting to see an endgame here they might not be able to control but they're gonna go down lying and spinning to create a fake front for as long as they can.

The good news/bad news is that after next Tuesday we'll be rid of these bastards...the bad news is we'll just begin to learn of the real damage they've done.

[Arkana]

8. Oh, but Dickwipe Cheney's perfectly healthy, KKKarl?

What an asshole. He's jealous of the fact that people love the Big Dog despite what they did to him in the late 90s.

[randr]

9. Mr. Sensitivity unfurls his compassionate self!

[gratuitous]

Get 'em back, Karl!

Where's Bob Dole? Oops, loser.

Then Poppy! He'll get out the Republican vote. Oops, loser.

Ronnie's still dead, isn't he? Never mind.

Gerald Ford? Puh-leeze, and loser.

Gosh Karl, who do you have that comes even remotely close to the winning cachet the Big Dog has? Rudy "Lil Adolf" Giuliani? Gotta work with what ya got, I suppose. And let me just observe how much it sucks to be you.

[wicket]

19. Gerald Ford is anti-Bush

He did an interview with NPR recently, it was great, you could tell how disgusted he is with the current leadership of the republican party.

[LTR]

32. NO WAY!

Got a link? I have to see this for myself.

Ironic, yet not surprising. Ford pushed hard for Bush in 2000, but I don't blame him for being pissed off now.

[Sparkle]

10. So what, Karl...you guys paraded Reagan's dead body

around for a whole week to try and help Bush.

[ClassWarrior]

11. It was "Weekend at Ronnie's"...

24.

[nostamj]

12. yeah, and that's much worse than using 9/11 WTC footage

to promote your diseased monkeyboy?

[SOS]

13. Rove's knowledge

of bypass recovery is on par with his usual lies, distortions and manipulations.

[JI7]

14. what a vile grotesque fuckhole

[snippy]

16. You have a much higher opinion of Rove than I do. n/t

[JI7]

22. actually i was holding back

i didn't want my post to get deleted.

[maxrandb]

15. But Wait! What THK said about Laura is so much more

sinister. I know because MSGOP/CNGOP/Faux and Limpballs told me it was.

Where is the effing outrage about this creep talking like that about a former twice elected president? Once again, we are losing in the outrage game.

[HughBeaumont]

17. They don't call him "Turd Blossom" for nothing . . .

You elect Lancelot, then you elect this entire cabal of war corporatist thugs, including Rove.

Totally classless, but then again, should you expect anything else from Grand Cyclops Rove?

[hyphenate]

18. Rove is a big dick

And not much more substance beyond that. I would say something more, but I might be pulled into HS if I said what I REALLY feel about Karl.

[sherilocks]

28. Excuse me? Big dick he looks

like a little dick to me or maybe dickless.

[spanone]

20. Hey Karl, Go Fuck Yourself.

[Blue_Roses]

21. Rove's a nasty little fuck

and he doesn't like losing 'cause this job is all he has. He always lurking and waiting to spread filth on his opponent.

[peacetalksforall]

23. Poor Karl. It's always Clinton. At least the nurses put a suit on him

and let him stand. And he wasn't yelling, but he certainly could be heard and they allowed him to sign autographs. Poor Karl.

[kodi]

24. so what? bosox fans thawed out ted williams head for game 7 vs yanks

good luck charms are where you find them

[AP]

25. Even BBC was on board with that RW spin...

...that Clinton was patching Kerry weaknesses.

Uh, over 100K people showed up to see him. Whatever.

[sundancekid]

26. remember that TRUTH is always the opposite of what rovianmacchiavelli says

[spooky3]

27. Ah, the smell of fear in the morning!

[Cocoa]

31. yeah, that's pretty desperate

I think Rove is becoming "unhinged." It's hard to see how this statement helps Bush.

[secular_warrior]

29. Rove is scared - just he fact that he's coming out swinging

shows he has a problem with turning out his own base and needs to fire them up.

Things aren't working out how he planned. By now it should've been in the bag for them and they're starting to panic.

[Stephanie]

30. The "Genius" speaks. Do you know KKKarl is a college drop-out?

How many people do you think have worked in the WH without even an undergraduate degree?

[LTR]

33. So how does Rove spin his pulling out of Schwarzenegger and Giuliani?

This seems even more desperate.

It does show that Rove must think highly of Clinton. He knows Clinton is still a force.

[0007]

34. ........it won't be long before they'll be rolling junior and his crime

family into The Hague

[LynnTheDem]

35. Dontcha just LOVE how they're bringing back HONOR, INTEGRITY,

and DISCUSSION back to UNITE America!

Now me, I call their behaviour boorish, uncouth, ignorant and damned RUDE.

[Zero Gravitas]

36. Fuck you Rove

here's a one way ticket back to Texas.

[Skidmore]

38. That Rove is saying anything at all, other than

skulking in the shadows, speaks to the level of panic they must be experiencing about now.

[The empressof all]

40. This is the Man who tried to raise Reagan up from the Dead

What a piece of work.

He needs to crawl back under his rock.

[americanwomanone]

41. Oh Give Me A Break!

President Clinton is with the Kerry campaign because he wants to be. And just maybe it will help some undecideds remember how good it was and can be again! These jerks are running scared!

[tomfodw]

42. Conversely, Clinton is so outraged at Bush's incompetence...

...that he insisted on going out on the campaign trail when he should be resting. It's all how you spin it.

Rove is so used to manipulating his puppet, Flightsuit Boy, that it never occurs to him that a real President can make his own decisions for himself.

[progressivebydesign]

43. As opposed to having Bush's terrier DIG ROVE outta the dirt every morning!

Fuck Rove.. that pasty, chinless, sack of shit.

[wicket]

44. kick

:kick:
