1. Wormtongue's more attractive...
that's for certain.

2. I know that people frown on short replies of agreement
But I gotta say that this made me snort. Good one.

Of course, Grima was working with someone who had a brain, so maybe my vote for him should be reconsidered. Hmmm.

3. Let's hope that Rove suffers the same fate as Wormtongue. . .
in the LOTR books.

:evilgrin:

4. Rove or Wormtongue?
An amusing query, but of course illusory. One can't really give any answer to such a comparison between a real entity and a fictional one.

But amusing enough to give me a chuckle.

5. I can give an answer
But it's neither yes nor no.

See, Wormtongue is a character representing an archetype in a fictional universe. Karl Rove represents the same archetype in this universe. So they are the same guy. Except they're not. Know what I mean?
