Karl Rove talking Crap in NH
I heard this on the radio on the Ed Shultz show from a caller in New Hampshire about Karl Rove talking at some political event. She is claiming that he outright called Senator John Kerry and Congressman Murtha cowards! All because they were against the idiotic vote the Republicans put forth today in Congress.
I don't give a flying crap who he thinks he is but if he bashes one veteran it is a shame, when he bashes two it is a travisty. When he bashes two highly decorated Vietnam Veterans then he has crossed the line. I am so upset over this that it is not even funny. How dare he call these men cowards? How many bullets has Karl Rove dodged in service to his country?
Karl Rove is the political message boy for the Republican party. He is the one deciding what the message of the party is going to be come the elections this November. I think it only fitting that the Democrats point out all of Karl Roves statements especially this events and blast them in fifteen second commercials across the nation.
The new Republican Party message is that you are only a great American Veteran if you are a Republican. All of us Democrat's, Independent's, Libertarian's, Green's and any other persuasion...we don't count if our kids die in service to our country! Why does that seem so much of the same old same old from the Republicans? Good American is a Republican, bad American is everybody else. Karl is off on the nation wide Republican hate message tour and he's got my blood boiling!
But wait it gets better...Did the Republican lead resolution they passed today paint all of the people against the war in Iraq as cowards?
Can anyone tell me if Karl Rove ever served in the military? I should clarify that as the United States of America's Military? He sounds like a scumbag to me and political mercinaries like him will serve whomever has the most money.

Karl Rove's theory is that if the Republicans want to survive this election, then they need to do what they did the last two election cycles - rally the base and define the "enemy." For whatever reason (as if we didn't know why), he believes that it's best not to discuss issues with which people might have differences of opinion. Rather, like Joe Gandelman at the Moderate Voice says, he opts for a softer version of McCarthyism - implying that you're a traitor if you're not on the same side as him.
Steve you should be shouting out BINGO for that post. Good summation.
As a law student I'm pretty sure that you have a firm grip on what is right and what is wrong. I'm pretty sure too that you know that no where in the Constitution is the word "Hate".
That is the dilemma we face. Selling fear like a commodity.
