The Case For Retroactive Abortion

Not only is Karl Rove a subhuman piece of donkey dung unworthy of the title "American" and deserving of a slow and painful death at the hands of fire ants and scorpions, he's a liar and phony hypocrite too.

First of all, even reporting on Rove's asinine, insulting, criminally simplistic, inaccurate and anti-American comments sort of dignifies them. And since dignity is not a concept Rove will ever grasp, I hate to even hand him that much. But no anti-American slimeball like Rove can be allowed to go unanswered.

Rove's contention that Democrats were hesitant to defend the nation against the terrorists who attacked the US on 9/11 is 1) wholly false, as evidenced by the unanimous bipartisan support for Bush in the immediate aftermath of the attacks and votes to authorize military action in Afghanistan; and 2) revealing of the cowardly fallacy of the Bush administration's criminal treason in Iraq... Bush swore to protect the nation against all enemies foreign and domestic, but when our nation was attacked, Bush let the attackers go in order to fight a family vendetta and Halliburton-profit motivated phony war in Iraq.

Yes, I do truly believe George W. Bush and his administration are guilty of treason for the gutless and derelict act of attacking Iraq instead of smiting the attacking enemy from the face of the planet. He swore to defend the nation; he abdicated that responsibility for a private war. He's a treasoner, and you should look at the Constitution for the suggested penalty for treason.

But Rove's utter hypocrisy revealed itself further when he criticized Sen. Dick Durbin's use of Nazi connotations and language in describing the conditions at Guantanamo Bay. Rove whined and erupted in faux outrage over the language, saying that Durbin's use of "Nazi" 'shows you what liberals are all about.'

Rove must have forgotten about his ideological partner, Republican Senator Rick Santorum, who only a month ago used the same terms and connotations in describing not Democrats' treatment of prisoners, but simply their procedural tactics to stall Republican strong-arming in the Senate. Santorum's remarks, captured in the Congressional Record, equated Democrats' filibuster tactics to "the equivalent of Adolf Hitler in 1942 saying: I'm in Paris, how dare you invade me, how dare you bomb my city. It's mine."

Furthermore, Republican Senator Jeff Sessions, when discussing the stem cell research debate, said "We certainly have all seen the rejections of Nazi Germany's abuses of science. As a society and a nation, there ought to be some limit on what we can allow or should allow."

Where was Karl Rove when two Republican senators were using Nazi allusions to make their point? Did those statements tell us what conservatives were really all about, Karl? Well? Did they? It can't be a revelation when one party does it, but perfectly okay when yours does, now can it Karl?

Of course, the gutless White House is defending its slimeball puppeteer. But whether or not the White House has the decency to defend half of America against cowardly slander by one of its own, make no mistake: Karl Rove is a hypocritical disgrace, and he should resign or be fired.
