Rove - desperation from a sinking ship - THAT's the reason for it

[Jersey Devil]

Rove's comments are not about distraction. It is about desperation.

There is finally movement and realization. Bush lies and people die - they finally get it!

Bush poll numbers in the tank, soldiers dying every day, soldiers without proper protection or equipment, Downing Street Memos coming to the forefront, $2.50 gas, stagnant economy with record deficits, our borders so porous that they are virtually non-existent, the people of the world no longer respect us, terrorists no longer are afraid of us, 40 million Americans without health insurance, no WMD, billions wasted in Iraq by greedy contractors, an attempt to dismantle social security, and this shit ain't gonna get any better for Bush. In the coming months it is just gonna pile up worse and worse for him and all of his henchman.

Thus Rove with his meme of anyone who opposes the government's official policy is a traitor. McCarthyism, quite clearly, one last attempt to scare the living shit out of Americans probably in the hopper. Google MIHOP if you don't know what it is. That's the next step. These fuckers are desperate.

1. Hmm maybe it's not just the Iraqi "insurgency" that's in its "LAST THROES"

Hmmm?

3. When Rove says anyone who doesn't defend

shrubs policies is a traitor, he is calling over half the people traitors since more than half no longer support ANY of his individual policies (Iraq, SS privatization, tax reform, Bolton). So, the idiot is insulting more than half of America. Or does he think they'll just run back to the fold if he calls them names?

4. Right, they're getting desperate...

They know their time is short. They're trying to hurry things along and go for every last political power grab.
