Karl Rove and his super PAC vow to press on

they learn nothing....







In the post-mortems of the 2012 election campaigns, it is already being written that the much-feared super PACs — those ostensibly independent, billionaire-funded outside organizations and their hundreds of millions in negative ads — turned out to be a bust.

At the center of the wreckage stands Karl Rove, the GOP strategist and supposed dark genius who for more than a decade has figured in the mythos of both parties.

With more than a little glee, Democrats and even some Republicans say the electoral defeat of so many candidates backed by his brainchild, a behemoth super PAC called American Crossroads, is proof that politics has finally passed Rove by.

It will be no surprise that Rove, not known for self-doubt, differs with that assessment.

his punishment - life or death.

You heard me right.

Life. Or. Death.

Rove is a treasonous bastard, and constantly breaking the federal laws, and going against the United States.

Rove is a domestic terrorist that needs to be put down immediately.
