WASHINGTON — "Karl Rove, President Bush's close friend and chief political strategist, announced Monday he will leave the White House at the end of August, joining a lengthening line of senior officials heading for the exits in the final 11/2 years of the administration.

On board with Mr. Bush since the beginning of his political career in Texas, Mr. Rove was nicknamed "the architect" and "boy genius" by the president for designing the strategy that twice won him the White House. Critics call Rove "Bush's brain."

"Karl Rove is moving on down the road," Mr. Bush said, appearing grim-faced on the White House's South Lawn with Mr. Rove at his side.

"We've been friends for a long time and we're still going to be friends ... I'll be on the road behind you here in a bit," he said ruefully.

and the road he'll be on is the one that leads to Leavenworth.

:puke:

How dare these two evil freaks speak with religious overtones as if they had done something great and participated in history!

Ask the dead how successful your insane pursuits were. You ruined at least two nations and left a legacy of death and suffering that is insurmountable.

Both of these liars should go to prison. Who will take away their government pensions? They will both live in luxury beyond what I cannot even imagine. Rot in hell the both of you!

“Everyone knew that sin was evil and that no good could come from evil. But he did feel good; he felt positively marvelous…It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue, and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honour, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”
