Freeps react: "False hope of Fitzmas," Rove "as innocent and pure as snow"
NOTE: This is a F.R. post from yesterday, in reaction to David Shuster's "I believe Rove will be indicted" report...and they DO link to the Truthout story (see reply #4 below) AND link back to DU...

The original F.R. post:

MSNBC - David Shuster: "I am convinced that Karl Rove will, in fact, be indicted...."
a copy of MSNBC Transcript | 5.13.06 | Shuster

there's a lot of chatter about an indicted Karl Rove - but there is little about this that the MSM is openly discussing.....This bit of a transcript is the best that my searching can find.....

I suspect that the left is putting all their hopes into this newest scandal, but like all the scandals before, this one will fail to gain any traction, since Rove is as innocent and as pure a newly fallen snow. (I know that statement sounds corney - but I believe it is true)

The Freeps respond:

1). To: rface

It's the new Fitzmas, I guess...More proof that the Dims hold on to false hope.

A side comment: since he left FOXNEWS, David Shuster has turned into the slimiest little liberal maggot on cable news. His bits on HARDBALL are slanted against the Bush administration, and he editorializes throughout his pieces. Once in a while, I'll tune in to see if Matthews is talking about something other than the Plame leak. He rarely does. Really. He was talking about the Plame leak when everybody else was focused on the NSA surveillance brouhaha.

What? That's what I say. Let's say that Rove is guilty as sin, that he had a little black book and he called everyone out there to tell them all about someone's CIA wife. Let's also say he lied to investigators. What happens? He goes to jail? Big deal. What of it? I'm sorry, but there's nothing to this story. A political gotcha doesn't make up for nearly a decade of soundly trouncing the Democrat party. There's no prize here. Are they implying that public satisfaction with the president might actually dip lower than congress? Fat chance of that. A Rove indictment makes it all that much harder for Rats to gain traction because all they have is a party of wackos waiting for camera time to chase away more voters. So indict Rove, send him to jail - it'll make the mid terms that much easier.

5). To: Perdogg

DU's getting their hopes up for a merry Fitzmas based on the Truthout article, FWIW. And one lefty blogger called Karl Rove's lawyer at home at 10:00PM on Saturday Night about this alleged story. Karl Rove's lawyer denied that Karl Rove has been indicted, but they still think they're getting Fitzmas after Mothers' Day.

4. Yeah, now all the Freepers need are some pics of Rove
hugging babies and saving helpless kittens from floods. I hear Photoshop's good for that. I mean, when you have a crook-- er, a "creative manager of problems"-- basically running your party for that long, and he gets busted in such an embarrassingly obvious, red-handed way, it's all about image massaging. Wouldn't want folks to know about the Rethugs and all the nasty stuff going on underneath. Move along, nothing to see here.

3. remember our false hopes on Libby getting indicted?
Oh wait...that DID happen. I seem to recall they thought we were wrong about that too until the news exploded all over MSM. Poor things never learn. :eyes:

9. "Father, thank You for President Bush. " Don't eat before you read this..
From Freeper Land.

"Dear Heavenly Father. Thank you for this day. Thank you for your blessings. Thank you for mothers and for my mother in particular. What a blessing they are to us.

Father, thank You for President Bush. Thank you for moving in him and for working through him. He's paid a price as President - but we have received much as a result of his obedience to you. Most notably, we have a supreme court that will be more likely to protect life. We thank You Lord. You are certainly merciful

I pray for the mothers overseas. Comfort them. Guide them. Keep them safe for their children at home need them.

Go with us, Lord. Go with President Bush. Move in Laura's heart Lord and give her peace. And be with our beloved United states. We need You Lord. Revive her we pray. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen."

"Most notably, we have a supreme court that will be more likely to protect life".


Tell that to the people of Iraq. Tell that to the Katrina victims.

13. "He's paid a price as President"...to Diebold...to Katherine Harris...
I'm guessing whatever price Junior paid doesn't come close to the U.S. soldiers who paid a price with...oh, let's say an ARM or a LEG...

He paid a price. Time for me to go buy a nice thank-you card.

:rofl:

15. Yeah, that was my reaction too.
And then I wondered whether that might not be a Democratic troll over there trying to post the most outlandish statement he/she could think of to see if the stupid Freepers would buy it.

If this is a serious opinion, well, I feel sorry for the guy. And I also have a very nice bridge in NYC to sell him.

"...easier."

I could live a hundred gazillion years and never understand freeper logic.

10. I love it when they show their true morality and values

Lying, cheating and treason are okay with them and it's no big deal, as long as their side wins.

14. I'm not the least bit surprised they're sliming Shuster, either.
They've hated him ever since he left Faux News, saying afterward that they force their reporters to slant and spin their stories. He told the truth, so of course they can't forgive him.
