- Insightful, on 10/11/2007, -1/+42It all started early, from NY Times and youtube: http://campaigningforhistory.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/05/01/in-nixons-tricks-roves-roots-and-a-blueprint-for-bush/

"It’s been widely reported, for example, that Rove’s mentors in the College Republicans during the Nixon years included dirty-tricks maestros Lee Atwater and Donald Segretti. Newspapers have also reported that in 1970 Rove sneaked into the campaign headquarters of a Democratic candidate for state office in Illinois, filched campaign letterhead, and sent out fake fliers aiming to discredit the Democrat." - DeadElephantORG, on 10/11/2007, -7/+37I won't hold my breath for any apologies from anyone in this cabal. If we've learned just one thing only in 7 years it is that these guys HAVE NO SHAME. Recall Bush's "joke" video shown at the national press club about searching for weapons of mass destruction in the Oval Office. "Those weapons have gotta be 'round here somewhere..." And just last week Cheney claimed he wasn't part of the Executive Branch at the same time he claimed executive privilege. I'm telling you... NO SHAME.

- fuzzmeister, on 10/11/2007, -3/+19This guy is essentially a sentient talking point.
- generalloy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18This is why impeachment is important. DO you want these people sneaking back into gov't 10 years later...again?
Imagine Alberto Gonzales as a judge. I shudder at the thought. - jjw269, on 10/11/2007, -3/+16Seen it.Guys an *****.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -4/+16You know Americans are all about what's bigger and better. Why would they vote for some inferior evil? They want the full-strength, industrial-grade, hearty beef flavoured, super maxi sized evil!
- steinerik, on 10/11/2007, -2/+13And still you americans never learn to vote for the lesser evil!
- jellygraph, on 10/11/2007, -2/+11scumbag... he ought to be in jail
- EBFoxbat, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11Picture this: you're a liar, condescending, feckless criminal. You're never going to get in trouble for anything you've done. Laws will be broken and mis-interpreted so you don't get in trouble. Would you apologize for anything?
- Birdoftruth, on 10/11/2007, -4/+12Go to Hell
- sobebelushi, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10I cant wait until they are out of office and whoever the next President and Attorney General are turn around and go after Cheney, Bush, the whole lot for war crimes against humanity. Remember, treason is still a crime they can hang you for...
- filmbandit, on 10/11/2007, -5/+12DIGG THIS UP DIGG THIS UP:
"My contribution to this was to say to a reporter, which is a lesson about talking to reporters, the words 'I heard that too,"' he said about Plame's identity as a secret U.S. agent."
this is incriminating banter -- this ***** is so smug.
what a piece of *****. - mal1964, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8That's OK they just accept cash, 250 K
- jestog89, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7That man is despicable.
- Smaugrens, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6It's either that or our votes do not count. See "Diebold."
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4loyalty to your boss or to your countrymen?
- filmbandit, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5i'll repeat myself and add i don't care if he believes he's immune to subpoenae --
this guy needs some bullets - DesuKN, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5"I am not a crook"
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6I guess you know better than the CIA then?
Dimbulb. - filmbandit, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5dugg down for putting rove with athiests that have grounded inherent, historic morals
- skytimelapse, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5This century there will be no Stalins or Hitlers, there will puppetmasters like Karl. There is a special place in hell for people like these, people who know who other people will vote for, who uses religion as a means to spur war, bloodthirst and nationalism in average people.
- iBits, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Please try not to forget that at least half of the electorate (if you believe the elections weren’t tampered with) did not vote for this jackass. Now if you want to talk about the ineptitude of congress, a cowed corporate media, voter apathy, and the lack of public will to do anything about it. That’s another story.
- a1c23456, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Look no further than Keith Olberman's "special remarks".
- DirtySnachez, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6Buried your "comment" which looks like a fact, followed by an opinion, another fact, and then a request. Not a comment.
- yankpats, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Anyone else start to think that perhaps Cheney isnt the only evil mastermind in this operation? Mind you I said mastermind, not retard.
- blurrie, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3he is the boss
- Waiting2awake, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Whenever I see these multiple page submitions all I can think of is; When you can't debate with quality facts, overwhelm with quantity.
- EarlOfLade, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5*****? No, they are common criminals.
- nanboya, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3And you wonder why there is little respect for authority these days...
- feckineejit, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3all these scumbags need to rot in jail - or better yet GO TO IRAQ!
- Waiting2awake, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4I'll bet you he gets closer to a pardon from the next Prez, than a prison.
Such is the nature of American politic's, where the masses see two where only one is. - LastVisibleDog, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3More inaccurate ***** spin from Thinkprogress - eat it up Moonbats
- slapthemonkey, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Dugg.
- BlacklabelSAR, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2How is it that the guy is still breathing air?
- letsgopens2006, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Im going to have to go with our votes mean nothing, who we put in office means nothing.
- GabrielS, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4Bury: inaccurate
The subject title is distortion of the actual Rove comments. - rewquio, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1The funny thing is that your comment could have some validity if it didn't start off with an insult.
- EarlOfLade, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3Oh yes they want it.
if not, they would not have voted for the chimp in '04.
If not, they would have used the 2nd amendment and overthrown these criminals.
Americans - fat and ignorant, loves liars and guns and is a danger to the world!
It's about time to move international trade from dollar to euros. - EarlOfLade, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2There is no such thing as hell, so you better punish these idiots while they are alive!
- johnkalel, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4wrong, gojeda. The CIA itself states that at the time of her cover being blown, Valerie Plame WAS covert.
see http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18924679/ for the basic story and then for a laugh, see http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2007/05/30/plame_covert/index.html for a review of all the media sycophants who trumpeted the falsehood that Plame was not covert.
it's amazing how followers of authoritarian/totalitarian agendas just give up their minds and their reasoning power to accept/create/perpetuate outright lies. - grr74, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2No apology would suffice from Rove. He would have to go to Iraq and rebuild the whole damn mess by his very self and that would be the A in apology. Come to think of it, I don't want his apology, it is too bloody late.
- protogenxl, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2"So don't ask me no questions And I won't tell you no lies."
- pixelbounce, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4So - If I look at the top headlines on Think Progress today....
Sen. Vitter on D.C. madam list, Taylor to still testify on Wednesday? National Hurricane Center director resigns.,Huckabee Suggests Escalating The Escalation: ‘It’s Possible’ We Need To Send More Troops....etc, etc. All of these are factual and link to the original source of the news.
Of course the comments an any site are largely opinions but to say that "everything on Think Progress is opinion" is flat out wrong. - JRDIGG, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2This is total crap and completely inaccurate. Just look at the headline --- 'Rove: ‘I Make No Apologies’ For Any Of Administration’s Mistakes Or Lies' The make no apologies remark was an answer to the question about how personally responsible he felt for the war. The rest of the entry is also just hysterical mis-characterization of the entire Rove appearance. I'm no Rove fan, but for heaven sakes, at least try and be a *little* accurate. You'd also have to be a total moron to digg it.
- ren1999, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Karl Rove was raised by his Norwegian stepfather, but Karl's grandfather was Karl Heinz Roverer, the Gauleiter of Oldenburg and Reich-Statthalter -- a partner of Roverer Sud-Deutche Ingenieurburo which built the Birkenau death camp.
Karl Roverer also known as Carl Rove has dual citizenship of the U.S. and Germany. That is a fact. If he is truly Norwegian, then why is he a German citizen? - stenhard, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1He has access to the air no longer being used by Iraqi war dead. I think you can buy it from Haliburton in 2 litre bottles, or in six packs for when you're on the go!
And people thought this was about oil... - stepnw1f, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1"moonbats"? Holy Batman, Beave, that was corney.
- azAZ09, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2I think they should be extradited to Iraq, and serve their time in Abu Ghraib, Perhaps with the former detainees as guards.
