Fox News just now: Karl Rove is much more DANGEROUS now

[wicket]

I had a pretty long day at work, and needed a laugh when I got home. I flipped the channel to Fox News just in time to see John Gibson claiming that Karl Rove is much more "dangerous" to his political opponents now that he's back in his old political job. Only at Fox News is a demotion considered making someone "dangerous". When you think of Karl Rove, is the first word you think of is dangerous?

Personally, I think of weasel:



:rofl:

Thanks Fox, I really needed a belly laugh!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

1. In saying this--Fox news is late

[Mr_Spock]

16. First thing I said this morning when I heard the news

I guess they get their talking points here on DU.

[rodeodance]

2. yes, i think it means he will have more opportunity to slam Dems and

therefore he will be more dangerous.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

4. in their small minds, this idea has legs.

but they forget the impact of 6 yrs of shrubisms and Rovian policies.

[Tiggeroshii]

31. Hasn't he only been the policy czar for a year?

I was wondering if this also demoted him from being able to construct any other kind of policy.

[acmavm]

5. I think they mean he'll crawl out from under his rock and start telling

lies to news media and have some FBI butt buddy of his start asking questions about dems and then put out stories that they are under investigation. That's been his MO.

[Old and In the Way]

3. Karl Rove, promoted to Brig. General in War to Save Christmas and Eastar

I'm surprised Gibson didn't get more creative on his commentary.

[TexasLawyer]

6. That is SO mean!

What did weasels ever do to you?!!?

[Gildor Inglorion]

7. The Skunk Bear, or Glutton comes to mind...

also known as the Wolverine. The weasel is far too sleek and graceful to be compared to a porker like the estimable Mr. KKKarl Rove.

[northofdenali]

29. Hey! Stop this trash-talk immediately!!!

Wolverines are OUR FRIENDS. They are solitary animals who DO NOT tolerate idiots. They would far more quickly attack a Repuke than they would a normal person!! :P



Isn't he cuuuuuute?

[tularetom]

8. I'm assuming it was this Bolton dude

who demoted him since * doesn't have the balls to do it. I'd avoid flying on private airplanes for awhile if I was Bolton/

[pacalo]

9. With the kind of karma they've got going right now, I hope Fitz

humbles their tough talk & gives their victims the last laugh.

[mod mom]

10. Unfair to weasels! I believe rove is clearing his schedule to concentrate

on stealing elections to keep subpoena power out of Dems hands.

[marbuc]

11. He IS dangerous

He has no moral compass to prevent him from destroying people for political gain (no matter how small). Just ask Joe and Valerie Wilson.

[bluethruandthru]

12. Is it just me

or does it bother anyone else that the media is talking non stop about how karl is going to spend all his time now on politics..but he's still on the federal government payroll???!!!

[Gidney N Cloyd]

19. Good point.

And they gave Gore such a hard time for making fund raising calls from his VP office.

[bluethruandthru]

25. I'm sure Karl's been doing nothing but

partisan political scheming since he's been in the white house...but, damn, it seems so ballsy how every single news outlet just calmly states that kkk will be focusing all his time on politics because of the upcoming mid term elections.

[partylessinOhio]

13. If Rove's head gets any bigger it will explode and

be dangerous to anyone standing near him.

:nuke:

[Ecumenist]

14. How dare you call that creature a weasel...

We here at the "Weasel Appreciation Society" take exception to your bestowing the name on such a low level and slimey life form. Weasel folk are fine upstanding sorts, who actually hunt for their sustenance, while that "creature" is a parasite on the body politic of the United States. The most that can be ascribed to that "creature" is one step below scavenger. :hi:

That being said....He ain't exactly been hitting anything out of a ballpark working for the most idiotic thing to disgrace the White House. Hell, he's not even a good liar---note the Plame affair..

[xultar]

15. Ohh dangerous... I'm so scared...I'm shakin in my bra and panties CUZ

Now Rove can tap our phones and use it against us...Oh he already did that.
and
Now Rove can get us into an illegal unprovoked war...oh he alredy did that.
and
Now Rove can out a CIA Agent....OH the muthafucka did that shit too.

WELL GOD DAMNED FUCK SHIT. What the fuck is left to be afraid of?

I suppose he could kidnap me to his mothership and make me carry his alien spawn nasty illigal alien satanic baby.

[Schema Thing]

21. Hey Cuz ?

[CrazyOrangeCat]

22. don't worry, we'll rescue you . . .

. . . before you're forced to bear his alien satanic baby.



:scared:

[MidwestTransplant]

17. Maybe he meant "in danger" considering Fitz is back to the GJ now.

[debbierlus]

18. Rove isn't going to be in this position long. Fitz is going to charge him

This move is simply designed to give the White House some distance from him when he is indicted.

Watch for it!

[0007]

32. Dangerous for junior......

[wicket]

36. I certainly hope so

:D

[cassiepriam]

20. I agree, he is more dangerous in charge of rigging the next elections.

[napi21]

23. It's going to be hard to be dangerous when all your time is spent

working with your lawyers fighting that pesky indictment!

I STILL think that's why he's being distanced from the Prez!

[yurbud]

24. he wasn't demoted, just removed from public eye

[WI_DEM]

26. No, he's just fatter.

[TheCowsCameHome]

27. This scumbag will have free reign of the place - never, ever trust him

[opihimoimoi]

28. Hey, lol, weasels have feelings too....

[peacebaby3]

30. This could be a first...but I agree with Fox News. Oh my, I think I just

made myself :puke: !

Hopefully, KKKarl will have too many of his own problems to worry about, but I'm not going to hold my breath. His day will come, we just might not get to see it.

[porphyrian]

33. At least as dangerous as a pretzel. - n/t

[Gabi Hayes]

34. Karl could use a good, close shave....like this:

[CrazyOrangeCat]

37. Now THAT was a fun album! n/t

[Writer]

35. Karl Rove's greatest success is making us all believe he's something to...

worry about.

Given the current status of the WH and GOP, he's never really been powerful. Politically, he's a disaster.

[wicket]

38. Ain't that the truth!

Disaster doesn't even touch the surface.
