Rove to GOP: Don't Grow 'Tired or Timid'
Rove told a gathering at the Conservative Political Action Conference that Bush is committed to the members' ideas of fostering morality and values, including protecting the culture of life for every human person — a goal that generated applause from the crowd at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center.

"Conservatism is the dominant political creed in America," Rove said, adding that more needed to be done.

He also said the administration was committed to spreading democracy across the Middle East and reforming and modernizing Social Security, health care, public education and the tax code.

"Those who oppose this agenda are in a difficult position," Rove said. "They're attempting to block reforms to systems that almost every serious-minded person concedes need reform. ... That's not a good place to be in American politics."


Morality and values?! Spreading democracy?! Reform?!! This is how they wrap destructive, reckless, greedy, immoral policies up in fine fancy rhetoric and sell it. It's incredible that anybody's still buying.
(Btw, Rove was introduced by Wayne LaPierre.)

1. This is the third time I have to insult this post !
It would take a non human being to call life "culture of life". But then we knew that about KR. His assumptions are a little different than those of us WHO HAVE FEELINGS!
