Quote Of The Day: The Jawa Report On Karl Rove

Is Karl Rove in trouble? Is he about to issue an explanation that defuses the controversy about him allegedly being involved in revealing a CIA operative’s identity in a political skirmish? The answers to that are yet to come — but there are signs he is overstaying his welcome…because he is being perceived as a distraction. Here are some excerpts from The Jawa Report’s Rusty Shackleford (read the whole post since we’re only offering you some parts):

Is Rove guilty? Dunno. Do I care? Not really. What Rove did was not treason as the lunatics over in the head-up-their-asses community are so fond of pontificating. Criminal? Maybe, in that everything-inside-the-beltway-that-some-pencil-neck-finds-offensive-is-illegal way, but not treason or anything even smacking of treason.

Anyway, it’s time for Rove to go. Last time I checked we were in a….shooting war and the last thing the Commander-in-Chief needs is a low-life political opportunist in his inner circle. If for no other reason he should go because his actions are creating a political scandal. And it’s not like were talking about the Secretary of Defense here, Rove is a pollster and a political strategist….So, Bush finds another low-life political opportunist to replace him–but one that knows to keep his mouth shut…….

I dunno about the rest of the world, but I for one did not vote for Karl Rove. I voted for George W. Bush…..I voted for Bush because I want a President who will respond to threats against the United States with force and without hesitation. Rove will only prove to be a distraction….So, Mr. Bush, fire Karl Rove and then do what we elected you to do: Kick. Some. Terrorist. Ass.
