GOEBBELS TO ADOLF ROVE TO BUSH
The true mastermind of the Bush Administration. Saving grace, not amazing, how sweet the sound. Karl Christian Rove was born on Christmas day. This must have provided him with some form of divine protection .
To have accomplished what he has in such a short period of time with so little education proves you don’t have to be a winner on “So you think you’re smarter than a fifth grader’, to succeed. Based on who he worked with, he graduated Magna Cum Loudmouth. In both education and his resume, the facts are clear.
He was the former Deputy Chief of Staff to President George W. Bush.
In addition, a Republican political/campaign consultant, a Fox News political "anal-istst" and contributor. And a collector of current federal inditements and investigations.
Clean is not a word around Karl Rove. If Cheney (aka Darth Cheney) was George W. Bush’s right ear, Karl Rove was the left. Too bad the “Cone of Silence” dropped down over their heads as the conversation between Karl and Dick reverberated through the empty chamber between the ears. Rather than just executive clemency, most of the truth about things he orchestrated will be obscured by "executive privilege". Think if it as having a “Get Out of Jail Do Pass Go Card. Thats because if you follow the trail by Rove it leads higher up and that would be an embarrassment.
Rove is only 58 years old and was born in Denver, CO. In high school, Rove excelled in nerdism and debate. Then he attended the University of Utah, Briefly, very briefly. He also became a Utah Republican Party intern. After only two years, Rove dumped college and joined the National College Republican organization, elected to and as executive director.
It was a rocky and tenuous relationship. Rove disrupted the College Republicans summer convention so badly that, at its conclusion, no one was even sure who had won. The Washington Post published an article claiming that Rove had advised College Republicans to go through opponents' garbage as a legitimate political tool. Normally, this would disqualify someone running for an elected position, but this is Teflon Karl Rove and even Gotti would be envious.
The Republican National Committee was chaired by George H.W. Bush. Rove was appointed College Republican chairman. In fact, H.W. was so impressed with Rove that he made him one of his special assistants. George always admired those who read past children's books. He never would complete his degree putting him in place with Limbaugh, Bech, Hannity and other self proclaimed leaders and semi-spoke-persons for radical thinking and spinology.
On several occasions, Rove has found himself in quick sand at the White house. Rove was, more than once, caught having policy meetings with the heads of corporations he owned stock in.
Karl Rove had his hand in every major scandal over the 7 years he was in the White House.
His name was mentioned in the Valerie Plame leak, that got dumped on Libby BUT Rove had to settle for later confirming classified information. He was held in contempt of Congress for failing to testify over the firing of U.S. attorneys.
In both cases, Rove was involved enough to commit a crime, but his involvement was convoluted enough for no one to care. This should come as no surprise considering those circumstances defined eight years of policy in the executive branch. Karl avoided using the official government e-mail servers in the whiteHouse as required by law to send correspondence.
He got away with it, again George Bush covered his ass to avoid further embarrassment to the White House and thus helped avoid a federal indictment. Err, does this make George Bush just as guilty?
In the fall of 2007 Rove resigned from the White House. Book selling makes more money than working and by that time the administration was finally admitting economically we were in the outhouse. OK, the shit-house is more accurate.
In Washington parlance, the expression is “jumping ship” for reasons of not being there to take the full brunt of the blames and thus being in a financially more beneficial position, upright and no bullet wounds. He still has plenty of things to explain and the inditements have not gone away.
His book on the Bush Legacy may be declared "a book of fiction about fiction" or something like that because what else would you call something that replaces a bunch of lies with more lies.?
