Charlie Rose to Karl Rove *What makes you so evil?*
http://rawstory.com/rawreplay/?p=115

At the end of a byzantine question on Wednesday night’s program, PBS’ Charlie Rose asks Karl Rove, “what makes you so evil?”

“Well I can’t answer that completely,” Rove replies. “I do have a theory though about the Internet. I think the Internet grants people a pseudo-anonymity that allows them to say things that they would never say to somebody in person and never put in a letter but would feel comfortable saying as accepted political discourse on the Internet, and after awhile it becomes ingrained in accepted practice.”

“It seems to go deeper,” Rose says.

“Beyond me,” Rove replies.

I'm a man of wealth and taste

Stole many a man's soul and faith...

or at least mixed up a few pitchers of it.

12. KKKarl projects his own bad behavior onto the internet citizens...
...it's just what narcissists/psychopaths DO - project their issues and bad behavior onto other people/entities.

How many wars have been started because of this?

17. "Well Charlie, probably because
when my parents got a divorce, I found out that the man who I always thought was my real father, really wasn't".

"Oh no! Wait a minute! I was evil even before that ever happened"!

21. I was thinking the same thing...
I really think we need to have a letter writing campaign for Karl Rove. He just got his own column in Newsweek so I plugged my nose and checked the site for his contact information and this is the best I could find, webeditors@newsweek.com is the e-mail address it gives when you click on the "e-mail the author" link right underneath his picture. Of course when they say it goes to him, but the e-mail address suggests it goes to the webeditors I am skeptical that Rove would even look at any of the messages himself. It doesn't hurt to try though, I will have to write tomorrow when I have more time.

19. I think I figured it out
His name isn't really Karl Rove.

It's Lex Luthor. Seriously, he stoke Clark's glasses and stuck this little fringe of hair around the back of his head. It's so simple, how did we not see it?

20. I would tell that fat fuck to his face that he is a loathsome dirtbag
I don't need the "pseudo-anonymity" of the internet to filter that opinion
