Karl Rove Suggests Stephen Colbert May Need 'Anger Management'

Last edited Mon Mar 25, 2013, 06:26 AM - Edit history (1)

"...Karl Rove, Fox News contributor and former deputy chief of staff for President George W. Bush, says of comedian-satirist Stephen Colbert's interactions with Rove's bespectacled canned-ham likeness, "Ham Rove," "He's an entertainer so he gets to be funny and exaggerate things and so forth. Though I have to admit, when he took out the knife and started stabbing it, I think he might need a little bit of professional counseling on his anger management issues."

Rove joked "I don't know whether that was working out his inner feelings, or encouraging maybe someone to maybe mimic him or just sort of being funny. But there was a little bit of anxiety in his stabs there." ..."

Yeah, the guy who had a meltdown on Fox News on election night is giving lectures on anger management. This is from a party that thinks Dennis Miller is funny and Gingrich, Limbaugh, Beck, Savage et al. are the height of decorum and thoughtful reflection. "WE'LL DO IT LIVE. WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!!"

Nobody accused Charlize Theron or Anthony Hopkins of needing help when they won awards for playing serial killers.

Rove can finance a run for office by Colbert. Then he'll be gone forever.
