Rove planning to ‘name names’ of Bush haters in his new book.

[Are_grits_groceries]

Karl Rove is reportedly one of the key architects overseeing the “Bush legacy project,” predicting that the President will be remembered as a “far-sighted leader.” In a new interview with Cox News, Rove rails against all the people in America who never “accepted the legitimacy of George W. Bush,” saying that he plans to call them out in his new book:

Rove sees a presidency clouded by the way it began.

“There were people who never accepted the legitimacy of George W. Bush and acted accordingly,” he said. <…>

Also reserved for between the covers of Rove’s book is his checklist of the “great many of the political actors in this town (who) never accepted him as a legitimate president.”

“I’ve got behind-the-scenes episodes that are going to show how unreceiving they were of this man as president of the United States,” Rove said, adding: “I’m going to name names and show examples.”

In the Cox interview, Rove also refused to acknowledge the role of Bush administration officials in various scandals, including the Valerie Plame, instead blaming “Washington partisanship.”

Gonna be a long book.

[DainBramaged]

1. Am I on the list (with pride)?

[tularetom]

29. That's t-u-l-a-r-e-t-o-m ya fat fuck

make sure you spell it right.

[jules1962]

108. hope they spell my name right

Can I write the prologue?

[Happyhippychick]

2. Man that's going to be one long ass book.

[DonEBrook]

4. First book in history with more footnotes than text.

:D

[LiberalFighter]

41. Probably need to use 4 point for the font size.

[TomInTib]

3. Add mine to the list, you little Puke.

Tack on my sig line while you're at it, shithead.

[tavalon]

70. When did it become cool?

[TomInTib]

74. In Dallas, about the time he traded Sammy Sosa.

For me, it was when Rove stole the election from Ann Richards.

I am sure everyone has their own, individual timetable.

[tavalon]

75. Funny, that's when I started disliking him

I loved Ann Richards. But I didn't actually go all the way to hate until a few months after 9/11.

[roguevalley]

98. I hated him since his old man was CIA. George was a longt ime

news worthy disgrace. I hope I am in there. I would consider it an honor.

[peace frog]

5. Go ahead and "name names", asswipe

The named will wear the label "Bush hater" like a badge of honor.

[TygrBright]

6. Can we sign up anywhere to have our names included? n/t

[IDemo]

60. This definitely calls for a website n/t

[lifesbeautifulmagic]

7. Oh please,

from the party that brought us the Arkansas project, he has nothing to say on the matter.

[ikojo]

8. I'd consider that a roll call of

HONOR and would be happy to be included. Even after 9/11/01 I did not suddenly support Bush. I've NEVER supported this charlatan of a president.

[lligrd]

93. Roll Call Of Patriots

if you ask me.

[madokie]

9. Maybe he'll clean old bushie boys wallet out

in search for that holy grail

[Swamp Rat]

10. It will be a volume of tomes containing a brazillion names.

[MichiganVote]

11. Well I'd like the book dedication for that project. Count me in Rove.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. It would be a great honor to be on that list.

Kind of like the people who found themselves on Nixon's "Enemies List." Some of them were thrilled to be there.

"Actor Paul Newman stated that his inclusion on the list was one of his greatest accomplishments.

In Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72, Hunter S. Thompson expresses disappointment in not having been included on the list."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixon%27s_Enemies_List

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. It would be more efficient, and use less paper, to name the 30,000,000 million in the world

who don't hate him.

[47of74]

14. Yo, Tubby McTreason, please make sure I am on the list

And by the way Mr. McTreason, read this!

[SoCalDem]

15. Alert Ripley's.. the worlds longest book is about to be written:)

:)

[patrice]

16. Surprise, Surprise! People tend to hate Lying and Murder. nt

[MidwestTransplant]

17. Gonna be a LOOOOOOOOOONG list

[47of74]

18. Also, question

Would he be able to publish it from here?

[sofa king]

19. So he's gonna sign his name to the census?

[TheCowsCameHome]

20. His book will require a dozen forests if all of them are named.

Better get busy, KKKarl.

[Radical Activist]

21. I will honor every name as American heroes.

Bush stole the election and is a shitstain on American history.

[Olney Blue]

22. He wasn't legitimate, so the book is a big fat lie.

[AnOhioan]

23. Where do I sign up to include myself???

[Trajan]

24. Notwithstanding George W. Bush's illegitimacy as POTUS ...

His behavior while in office has been absurd and dangerous ....

Fuck Turdblossom and his numbskull revisionism .... History will rightly place Dubya into the trash heap; The WORST President ever ...

Turdblossom can also enjoy his own place in history as a prime architect of the worst presidency in history ....

Well deserved, pud boy ... Well deserved ....

[graywarrior]

25. I hate Rove

I tried to write something intelligent here regarding legitimizing a failed presidency and shoving that walking, talking piece of shit down our throats, but I can't find the words. So I'll just say that I hate Rove. and I hate everything he and the Bush administration stands for. And I'll say it again. I fucking hate Rove and I hope he gets what he deserves and I hope it is painfully painful.

That is all.

[Mari333]

26. name names???? OH NOES WE R ALl doOmed1!!!

[hlthe2b]

27. 300 million Americans.. 6.7 Billion in the World...

That's gonna be one heck of a long book! :evilgrin:

[GrantDem]

28. He better get started...

Pigboy has a pretty long list to write.

[krispos42]

30. He can just slap his name on a re-bound phone book n/t

[AntiFascist]

31. This book should be about as popular as the Bush presidency. n/t

[DainBramaged]

35. Every Freeper who has scoured their couch for change will buy this.

[BrklynLiberal]

32. Wouldn't it be a lot easier to just name those that DON'T hate him?

It would be a MUCH shorter list...mostly family and closest friends.

[CTyankee]

33. If I am not on that list, I will sue that MFer!

I will claim emotional distress at being thought of by my friends and relatives as a non Bush hater. The pain I will suffer will have to be recompensed with money. I will sue for at least $1 million to compensate for my loss of status and family's/friend's affection...

[Jamastiene]

89. Here is another plaintiff to add to that suit

and it would certainly be an atrocity not to include my aunt's name as well. She cannot even see his face or hear his voice without blurting out a string of obscenities a mile long. She'll drive her scooter in from the other room just to cuss at the TV if she hears his voice.

[Caretha]

107. My sister needs to be part of that lawsuit

She has been sporting a custom made bumper sticker on her car since 2001, that says "I really really hate Bush".

[CTyankee]

109. Hey, we'll get a class action suit together right here on DU!

Seriously, I wonder if there is a way we can write to Rove about including us.

How about a Petition from DU, signed by just about the entire DU population?:rofl:

[VP505]

34. The only thing this book will accomplish is

to demonstrate once again how delusional Rove in particular is and Republickers in general are.

[old mark]

36. How many volumes? nt

[frebrd]

37. Don't forget me, FUCKFACE!

:puke:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

38. Just publish the phone book and save yourself some time Rover.

:smoke:

[mrreowwr_kittty]

39. He should just attach a phone listing from every major metropolitan area to his book

That should do it. Of course, you'd have to take your book out on a pallet. :shrug:

[annabanana]

40. That's pretty damn funny.. I understand there are OTHERS getting ready

to "name names".. and soon, too.

Like January 21...

(we really need a "rubbing hands with glee" .gif)

[LiberalFighter]

42. I wonder if he found my name on their mailing list?

I included "Hates Bush" at the end of my last name. Still got mail from Republican candidates this year.

[Dukkha]

43. be sure to spell my name right

I want a permanent record of hating your vile despicable beady-eyed doughy ass

[Joanne98]

44. That's what happens when you steal elections! DUH!

[kskiska]

46. Rove certainly had a part in preventing the counting of votes

which led to his candidate proclaiming victory with a cloud (*) over his head. He should have anticipated the historical aspect of it: leaving office with the same cloud securely in place - and even darker.

[TexasObserver]

45. Hey, Turd Blossum! You outted a fucking CIA agent. You've already named names!

What an ass wipe, but then he's always been one.

[MasonJar]

47. Can I be page Dec. 12, 2000, the date disaster struck America?

Please KKKKarl? (I hope I remembered the date correctly, if not, I apologize up front.) Anyway the only way I'd ever buy the book is if I am recognized personally as a Bush hater.

[Mad_Dem_X]

48. Go for it.

I think most, if not all, Bush haters would be proud to be mentioned in the book, seeing how Bush COMPLETELY RUINED OUR COUNTRY!

What a jackass.

[katmondoo]

49. Good, They will be forever honored

[nichomachus]

50. I hope he has time to read it aloud from the gallows

It could delay his execution by a week or so -- there are so many of us.

[Hamlette]

51. and that is why we spent 8 years impeaching him

like Scaife and the "elves" did. Because they never saw Bill as legit because he didn't get a majority of the votes.

bullies having temper tantrums. Sweet.

[zorahopkins]

52. Dear Karl: Please Include MY Name

Oh, please please please PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE include My Name.

It is ZORA HOPKINS.

I hate Bush.

And, Karl, there is one more thing.

I LOATHE you.

[sarge43]

53. Is that suppose to be a threat, Turd Blossom?

Have you checked your sock puppet's approval ratings lately? The ebola virus has more fans.

You can include me as one of those who never accepted Monkey Boy's legitimacy.

[whistle]

54. That will be the size of a major telephone directory

[LeftyMom]

55. That book's going to be fatter than an Oxford dictionary, then.

:eyes:

[Ishoutandscream2]

56. KKKarl, to quote your boy

"Bring. It. On."

[oldnslo]

57. That's gonna be one hell of a thick book.......

I think everybody hates that stinking rat-bastard. Disembowel him!

[saltpoint]

58. As others have indicated in this thread, it would be an honor to

be included on that list.

[rainbow4321]

59. That's easy...

Just ask NASA to have one of their astronauts take a pic of Planet Earth on their next trip.

[mudesi]

61. Hey Rove, add me! (nm)

[spanone]

62. add me to that list, s p a n o n e.

[pansypoo53219]

63. let me at 'em!

so i can give them a kiss. or shake their hands.

[Kitty Herder]

64. Wouldn't it be easier to just name those who don't hate him?

It would be a much shorter book.

[Festivito]

69. You could fit that on a cocktail napkin. /nt

[corpseratemedia]

65. he's like a 13 year old girl in middle school gossiping

and naming names behind other kid's backs...

[Bluebear]

66. I never accepted him as legitimate President either. Spell my name right, you pig.

[Downtown Hound]

67. A book of honor

Everyone in it that makes the list should have statues built for them and put in the White House lawn. This should be a reminder to any future tyrants that try to pull some of this same shit that they will go down in shame as well.

[tavalon]

68. Rather like a person with a toddler like mentality

I'm telling! Oh, waah, boo hoo. STFU KKKarl.

[Arkana]

71. Thanks, Mr. Karl McCarthy.

Why don't you go on TV drunk and accuse Big Bird of being a terrorist?

[Festivito]

72. Wonder if Don Siegelman would be on the list.

Or, is a book about Bush done in order to NOT HAVE a book about himself.

[stillcool]

73. Where do we send our applications?

[bunny planet]

76. He's better get started, he's got a lot of names to write down.

[ismnotwasm]

77. This will rival

The length of War and Peace. Or The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.

Is he taking volunteer names? I want in.

[Ilsa]

78. I figure about 200 million names might fit in the book with small type. And

that is just in the US.

[bvar22]

79. Well, he's going to need something ....

...to fill up the "Bush Library".
This one volume should do it.

He can use my Pre9-11 picture too.

[L0oniX]

80. It will be nice to have a list of friends.

[The Gunslinger]

81. And I thought it was his job as president that earned him all the "hatred"

Does Karl remember the decider's approval rating after 9/11. It was very high. I think the decider must have made a few mistakes after that.

[roamer65]

82. Hey KKKarl, you pig bastard!!!!

Did that get me on the list, fuckhead?

[The Backlash Cometh]

83. A far-sighted leader? As in ignore the million a month lost jobs a month, because,

when Obama turns the economy around you asshat Republicans will swoop down to take all the credit?

[tblue37]

84. How can they forget how the Republican partisans attacked Clinton all through

his presidency, insisting he wasn't their president.

[struggle4progress]

85. Here's how history will remember it. The son of the former head of the secret police and former

president became president himself after judges appointed by his father stopped ongoing vote-counting in the province controlled by his brother. Eight years of corrupt maladministration followed, during which election fraud, political prosecutions, and cronyism were rampant. The regime ended when the economy collapsed. Apologists, attempted to blame others for the debacle, produced extensive lists of the regime's political opponents: the names in these lists became the starting point for "The Big Book of American Patriots"

[Initech]

86. It will be like that chapter of the Bible where they name people who begat other people.

Except multiplied by like 1,000 times.

[Jamastiene]

87. Wow, I wonder how long a book will be with the names of 80% of all the people in the world.

They are going to need to make that book into a 10 volume set before he even gets started.

[Kajsa]

88. Yeah, Rove- SO WHAT?

I mean big friggin la de da!

Name your names, claim your game.

Oh, Noes!!- they "didn't accept him as president and acted accordingly".

Well- that's an awful lot of people there, including ME and you want to
know WHY?

BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WIN EITHER ELECTION.

Next----

[FloridaJudy]

90. Soon to be available as a 1,000 volume bound set

Publish and be damned.

[Mendocino]

91. LOL-As if anybody cares what Butterball has to say.

Rove is simply the paper that wiped Bushes butt.

[Jamastiene]

94. I thought that was the Constitution and the Bill of Rights

at least until he ran out and had to make do.

[Mendocino]

96. And Rove was called "Bushes Brain"

How low does that lower the bar?

[Lucian]

92. Well, my name better be in that book.

And I will be proud if it is.

[lligrd]

95. Well Turd Blossom, I'm Not Buying Your Book Even To See My

name in print. Nice try!

[bluedawg12]

97. Who will care?

[Raksha]

99. Count me in, Rover...

after all, I would want all the times I wrote "Bush hater AND PROUD OF IT!" after my name to go to waste.

[Hubert Flottz]

100. I'll look for that book in the who gives a flying fuk section at...

Pig Lots!

EDIT...Sign at the back book bin at Pig Lots stores... "Get your 7890989876777766543212345666 volume set of Karl's Fractured Fairy Tales today... Price...free to a good home."

[Cobalt-60]

101. Me too!

I wouldn't miss a position on this honor roll for all the buds in Holland.

[LaydeeBug]

102. kewl. That's L-a-y-D-e-e-B-u-g. Hope he gets it right. nt

[camera obscura]

103. Somehow I doubt he thought this cunning plan through

these people are going to "suffer" a rise in reputation and esteem, even if they were too chickenshit to come out and fight Bush openly.

[lonestarnot]

104. I'm going to be in a book by Red Rover?

[notadmblnd]

105. That's going to be quite a big book.

[ProfessorGAC]

106. This Doesn't Even Make Sense

The people who will buy this book don't care about the truth and already know who they're supposed to hate. The people who think silverspoon deserved the bashing, wouldn't care who's on the list.

So, why is this a marketing approach. It probably won't increase sales and just draws attention to a guy still under criminal investigation.

If i were the PR folks at the publisher, i'd tell him to be much more quiet.
The Professor

[HillWilliam]

110. The Resident might not even be remembered even

as a "far sighted leader" if he didn't sit around having pulls all day. The nuns warned us about that shit. Everyone is good at something I guess. Chimps are known for that and flinging poo. * is absolutely true to his species.

So, how many volumes of fine print will it take to get all the names in of people who despise Spanky the Monkey? I'm guessing fifty or sixty big-thick, heavy muthahs. Never has so much stooput carried one person so far in life.

The man was born with the Ex-Lax Touch.

[mnhtnbb]

111. Spell my name correctly, you shit pusher, Rove.

[eppur_se_muova]

112. And wasn't CNN's original headline DISGUSTINGLY misleading?

The M$M continues to enable the Bu**sh** White House up to the last minute.

[bikebloke]

113. Is he plagiarizing the phone book?

Cover to cover.
