"Bush's Brain" Loses a Few More Cells

Fox News: 'McCain's TV Commercials Contain ... Out-Right Lies'

That so-called political genius everyone on the right touts? Apparently, he's losing his touch:

Fox News has trumpeted its acquisition of former top White House aide Karl Rove as a political analyst in recent days. But is the "fair and balanced" news network getting its money's worth from President Bush's political architect?

One cent is overpayment. One. Cent.

And moments before the Associated Press released clips from Romney's speech before the Conservative Political Action Conference indicating that he would certainly end his candidacy, it did not appear Rove's privileged insights were as well-developed as other commentators in the world of political news.

There are so, so many things about KKKarl that aren't well-developed... I think I'll just leave it at that.

Here's what the Boy Genius said:

"What I'm hearing is that there's a strong sense inside the campaign that he is going to withdraw. I'm not certain that he's necessarily going to withdraw today, in his speech, though that is a possibility," said Rove as he started his informed commentary.

Oh, DO go on, Bush's Brainless, we're allll ears. ::resting chin in hands and grinning expectantly::

"I want to be cautious about this," Rove emphasized. "It strikes me that while the path is working against him, this may not be the moment he decides to withdraw, decides to announce his withdrawal."

What insight! What a keen sense of analysis! What a ...what a ...! Whaaaa?

You can watch the video without fear of exposing yourself to his face. But you will have to listen to his voice on the phone.

Digg!

Sarah Palin is a milestone, for we achieve true gender equality when an incompetent woman goes as far as an incompetent man.

According to Time, Karl Rove on Thursday donated $2,300 via the Internet to McCain’s presidential campaign. I doubt Fixed Noise will report that.

that this criminally insane little twit found a job on any news organization, but then Faux Noise isn't just "any" organization. One more thing to add to the incredible lack of credibility. I think he should share a desk with Bill-0, now there would be a great mega-ego twosome.

Just one of Bush's corrupt, treasonist, double-crossing neocon friends: Karl Rove

ALL these neocon people all over the US government are traitors.

Perhaps the Turd Blossom will help the Faux News Network tank sooner! (They are losing ratings shares and viewership more and more every week.) And, at least people can keep an eye on him if he's in the public eye.

Besides, I bet it won't take long for him to shoot of his big mouth and have a guest punch him. I've never seen him on a talk show before where he didn't make a total ass of himself and insult someone.

I would pay to see that.
