Some Quick Responses to Karl Rove

Rove On Katrina: The only mistake we made with Katrina was not overriding the local government...
Me: That wasn't the only mistake. FEMA actively blocked outside support for New Orleans. That seems like a bigger mistake.

Rove On Bush's Low Poll Numbers: We have not been good at explaining the success in Iraq. Polls go up and down and don't mean anything...
Me: As far as "success" in Iraq, you have a LOT of explaining to do. (Keep reading those polls, I know you do.)

Rove On Judy Miller And Plamegate: Judy Miller is in jail for reasons I don't really understand...
Me: I know fraud, conspiracy, lying, and contempt for the judiciary are all fashionable today, but you might want to Google them... just in case.

Rove On Joe Wilson: Joe Wilson and I attend the same church but Joe goes to the wacky mass...
Me: Is "wacky" the best you can do?

Rove On The Anti-War Movement: Cindy Sheehan is a clown. There is no real anti-war movement. No serious politician, with anything to do with anything, would show his face at an anti-war rally...
Me: Cindy Sheehan is a clown?
Okay, well, you're a pig.
And a douche bag.
And an evil bastard, turd blossom, malformed toady, closeted, Gannon-humping, rudderless drone for your own perverse sense of status.
But I wouldn't say any of those things to you because those are irrelevant personal attacks unbefitting civil discourse.
