Listen to a blustery Karl Rove harrass Robert Siegel for his reading of the public polls last week. Rove claimed to be reading 68 polls a week, leading him to predict a Republican House and Senate: "You're entitled to your math, and I'm entitled to the math..."

Image: Rove on a small, stiff military cot, rocking back and forth: "But they got it wrong. I have the math, I have the math, I have..."

Digg!

Rove is FAR too sophisticated... even if he is a cheap thug... to believe his own lies so easily. His statements were meant to do two things... demoralize the already demoralized Dems and energize the disgusted Republicans.

But had he been right one wouldhave to ask.. where does THE math come from? Diebold?

Karl Rove failed his king... he may now fall on his sword.

Rove is an incredible pig...emotionally, mentally, spiritually, ethically..... Just hearing his voice makes me want to bathe. I hope, as Ted Haggard prayed, that lies and deception will continue to be revealed.

Time to stop being weak Foot-Servants. Stop being tough on us, and START being tough on the other side of YOUR table.
