Nick Calio on Hardball: "I know Karl, and I trust Karl"....
Former adviser to Bush Nick Calio just said that if Karl Rove "forgot" about the details of the Plame leak, he REALLY forgot, because he knows him and trusts him.

FUCK ME!

Which way are the exits in this ASYLUM???????

3. People who are "known" and "trusted"...
...commit crimes EVERY DAY.

Somehow the notion of Nick Calio "signing off" on Rove's integrity doesn't fill me with the warm fuzzies.

:grr:

5. It really does boggle the mind.
That some crony of Rove's thinks that his saying Rove is a great guy MEANS anything. I just can't get over that kind of illogical arrogance.

4. Yeah, I saw that...and by the way EFF Nora O' Donnell too!!!
EFF her in the butt with a BIG rubber dildo as George Carlin would say.
I watched this dreadful show and once again it was chock full of gems like this:

"Most Americans would say"
"Many Americans want"
"A lot of people think"

BLOW ME!

6. She's "prettier" than Andrea Mitchell...
...but, I believe, more "loyal" to Bush.

She also has a fake-ass smile if I ever saw one.

Further proof...as if we needed it...that you cannot judge a book by its cover.

8. hmmmm
Sounds a lot like Scott McClellan doesn't it.

Wasn't he 100% positive Rove was not involved as well?

7. Then poor Karl had better go see a doctor,
Edited on Wed Dec-28-05 08:22 PM by tanyev
because something must be wrong.

Early on, Rove showed he had the brainpower to go places. His sister remembers that the family used to rely on Rove's photographic memory for evening entertainment. "The game was, 'See if you can stump Karl,'" she says. His older brother Eric would read a passage from a book Karl had read the week before. The challenge was to guess which word his brother had intentionally left out.

In politics there is nothing more useful than knowing where the money is, but Rove knew more than that. A voracious student of electoral history--and one of those people possessed of a seemingly eidetic memory for numbers and statistics that bordered on the freakish--Rove always knew where the votes were, too, and could, if you cared to listen, parse them in a dozen different ways on the spot and tell you how to woo each sub-segment of voters.

9. In these parts
We call them "Evil Genius". He is "The Brain" to Bush's "Pinky".

Scary as all hell, that Rove is.


Prisons are full of "innocent" people and when you find out the guy next door is an axe murderer, all you see on the news is that he was the nicest guy and everyone is utterly shocked and in disbelief that he could have done anything of the sort... as they pull the bodies from his basement.
