BRAD'S TAKE

Roe to Rove: 'You guys wouldn't be in White House without Tom'
So what did he mean by that?...

Late this week, Politico's Anne Schroeder ran details of a purported public showdown, in a D.C. steakhouse, between Karl Rove and Jason Roe, the former Chief of Staff to FL's former Republican U.S. House Rep (and alleged vote-rigging conspirator) Tom Feeney.

During the exchange between Rove and Roe, as reported by Schroeder, Rove tells Roe that he has a file on Feeney, and Roe, who was angry with Rove for cracks he'd made on Fox "News" at Feeney's expense just after the extremely corrupt FL Republican had lost his 2008 election, says angrily to Rove: "You guys wouldn't be in the White House without Tom."

Given the coverage we've offered over the years on Feeney, and former Republican computer programmer Clint Curtis' allegations against him, several folks --- including our friends Marcy Wheeler of emptywheel and Patty Sharaf, filmmaker of Murder, Spies & Voting Lies: The Clint Curtis Story --- sent us the link to the Politico article, asking our opinion on what Roe may have meant by that crack.

In the interest of keeping links to that story from continuing to pile up in our Inbox, here's our take on Roe's purported comment to Rove...

1. I hope that as the Republican party unravels, the participants,

in their oh-so-Republican eagerness to fuck over the other guy before he fucks over you, that all the secrets that they have been keeping for the last 30 years start to flow out as the accusations fly, the blame is placed, and everyone's criminal activity is made public in order to be the last man standing.

I also hope that sentence makes sense to people. I'm sorry, it's not written very well.

2. That was a great sentence,
grammatically perfect, syntax divine, and the thoughts precisely organized and presented.

I like sentence like that.

Mine usually look like this: "I hope the ratbastards start gnawing on each other's brains as they all scream out all their filthy secrets."

So, see why I admire you?
