Karl Rove
Where my Gubs At, Put One Hand Up
I don’t understand the Republican and NeoCon love affair with Illinois Gov Rod Blagojevich; I just can’t get it. When the first news of this possible scandal hit the airwaves was my thoughts were, “Damn this is going to revitalize the neocon base and start the wood chopping all over again.”, but I was wrong. Today I was asked by an ultra conservative, fundamentalist christian about what I thought of Rod Blagojevich. Previously I’ve had conversations about politics with this person and figured that they’d use the Blagojevich news to demonstrate the lack of moral fortitude of my side of the ballot. So I sheepishly replied that I thought he should be thrown in jail and that any abuse of power by an elected official, republican or democrat, for personal or political gain, should be considered almost treasonous, as it puts the country at war with one mans self interest. I should have known better. I should have watched more FoxNews. Her response, “Ehh I don’t know, my husband read a book, and Rod did a lot of great things for the state of Illinois. Did you know that he gave a book to every child every month in order to get them out of a rutt? He did a lot of good, I don’t know…” I was floored. I didn’t have to disown him, which I gladly would have, because she had already adopted Blagojevich.
These people don’t care at all about Blagojevich’s actions, at all. The only thing they care about is whether or not they get to point the “I told you Obama is no saint” finger as soon as they can. It’s…
You Must Give Your Cape and Scepter to Me…

Karl, I don’t have a college degree or any sort of objective experience to speak of, but have somehow landed a job as a political analyst despite being fired by several campaigns, doing myriads of unscrupulous deeds, and leading what many to consider to be the most unethical campaign ever, followed by serving as chief adviser to a man who even more refer to as the worst president ever, Rove. If you think your circumstances were hindering or your childhood life was bad, you’re wrong. Karl Rove’s were much, much worse. For most of his life, he erroneously believed the man who raised him was his biological father, only to find out upon leaving his mother on account of being homosexual that in fact he was his adoptive father. Twelve years later, his mother committed suicide. Guys like Karl Rove should inspire all Americans and reinforce that anyone can do anything, make lots of money, and have lots of people honestly believe they have something worthwhile to say, without having to start a cult.
But even Dio, who had his day in the sun, had to pass the torch, and so it’s time for Karl to follow suit. The dream is over, and the ride was nice. It made for some great Daily Show episodes, but has run its course; Karl Rove has no business making any comment on future American politics. Yet recently, Karl Rove stated that he was impressed with the make up of Obama’s economic advisory board. Considering Karl Rove has proven to be the anti-Midas, turning everything he touches into mud,…
