Rep. Peter King spinning furiously for Rove on CNN's American Morning!

[flpoljunkie]

King amazingly ended the interview with Soledad O'Brien by saying that Karl Rove "should be given a medal." A medal for what you might ask. According to King, Rove was "defending the President of the United States against Joe Wilson's lies." Am not sure what he meant by this ridiculous assertion--except King repeated the British assertion that Dubya's infamous 16 words in the January, 2003, SOTU speech were "well founded"--an assertion that has been roundly questioned on both sides of the Atlantic.

A desperate and definite ratcheting up of the stakes in the defense of Karl Rove. What does Karl Rove have on Peter King? The man is willing to make an abject fool of himself on national television defending "Turd Blossom."

1. they just drink the Kool-Aid

and ignore any kind of decency or common sense-it amazes me

2. Some good questions there

From the incredibly shallow,transparent and desparate lies the neocons are telling in this matter (Peter King and Norm Coleman)I can only conclude that whatever the hell is REALLY going on, the stakes are astronomically high.

We may be on the verge of something truly historical.

It's beginning to look that way to me anyway....

6. He's from Long Island

His district is eastern Nassau County on Long Island. I don't know much about the area. Does anyone else?

Hell, the Republican idiots of this country fell for it back during Iran-Contra, why not now?
