KKKarl: My ‘tail and horns are retractable.’
from Think Progress:



Rove: My ‘tail and horns are retractable.’

During his speech last night at George Washington University, Karl Rove was interrupted by a group of protesters who unfurled a banner reading “War Criminal.” The protesters were heckled by some in the audience. A couple of Rove supporters shouted “tase them” to the protesters.

Later on, a student asked Rove why some of his detractors believe he is a “fundamentally bad human being.” Rove joked, “First of all, the tail and the horns are retractable.” “I don’t know! I’m a myth,” Rove explained. “I mean, I’m like Grendel of Beowulf; I’m not often seen but people talk about me a lot. I don’t know.” Watch it: http://thinkprogress.org/2008/03/29/rove-gw-heckling/


Another student asked Rove whether he would still support the Iraq war if he knew then what he knows now. “It is what it is,” Rove said, showing no remorse for his involvement in leading the nation into Iraq.

1. My head has plenty of room for the horns, and my ass has plenty of room for the tail.

3. Not Grendel. Stalin.
The commie turd helped the nazi turd rise to power in the 1932.

Same for the BFEE ever since.

They've been selling arms to "both sides" ever since.

6. I'm wondering about the same thing since our soldiers seem
to be hit so hard and more so since mission accomplished. I also get the impression that we are suppose to believe that these weapons are coming from Iran.

4. The fact that he has no remorse

“It is what it is,” Rove said, showing no remorse for his involvement in leading the nation into Iraq.

It is obviious that all this ever was to him was a game. It's up to us to make sure that all of the deceased soldiars families and the surviving soldiars here this information. We hear it and see it but the broader public is not hearing this.

May the rest of Rove's life be a living hell.

5. Shape Shifter, in other words
"I will work evil but act as though a victim of machination and invention."

What an act! He's got it down good to "I'm a victim" schtick. Wool over the student's eyes wouldn't surprise me. Even with GWU's politically savvy coeds there is an abundance of rich baby (R)s at the World's most expensive school to see KKK as a politico exemplar and mis-characterized as a villain.
