Whole Ass

Go ahead and play word games with that. Mr. Rove leaves with the grace we've all grown accustomed to from him here. My favorite quote:

“The dividers, over the last six years,” he said, “have been the Democrats, who have routinely said he was not elected, he’s illegitimate, he’s a liar, he deliberately misled the country.”

Isn't that just precious? Why didn't he just call them poopyfaces while he was at it? And, for the record, I think it's pretty much proven that Bush did not win the popular vote in 2000 (though he certainly did in 2004--that is not disputed). He is a liar. And, he deliberately tries to mislead this country almost every time I hear him speak.

He misled conservatives into thinking he was going to be humble about foreign policy and control spending and the size of the government. He misled liberals into thinking that he would reach out to them--though he doesn't appear to reach out to other conservatives either, so I guess they shouldn't take it personally. He misled the American public day after day after day about the situation on the ground in Iraq. He misled the entire nation into thinking that a Homeland Security department was able to handle disasters and that we were safer.

Sometimes, Karl, a spade really is a spade. Your boy and his administration is a failure--just is. It may hurt, but I wouldn't point the finger at the other guy. Instead, you may well be wise to just bow your head, say goodbye and, most especially, "I'm sorry."
