Karl Rove sets the GOP Senate Strategy

http://www.americablog.com/2009/01/karl-rove-sets-gop-senate-strategy.html

Call me crazy, but I think it's going to be very difficult to be post-partisan and get all cozy with Republicans when the master of divisiveness, Karl Rove, is setting the GOP strategy. He's took the lead on the opposition to Eric Holder and the GOP Senators dutifully followed:

What was considered a smooth path to confirmation has recently been complicated as signs of hostility toward Holder have increased over the past month. Political operative Karl Rove and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), for example, singled out the longtime Washington lawyer as the candidate who would face bruising questions.

Turn him loose, with all the powers granted by the Bush Administration, on Karl Rove, Mitch McConnell, and any other shit-stain Republican who wants to be an obstructionist.

from Rove and McConnell and their enablers.

after Bush issues his pardons for himself, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, et al. A VERY hard time and look credible at the same time, if that were even possible for the likes of McConnell and the rest of the GOP nuts.

:puke:

There is no way for Congress to stop it.

which this Pardoning of ones self violates..

are we guilty of letting these dudes use vague laws to their advatage....the Letter of the Law thing??? Of course we are...they always do this

its a condition they foster...ya gatta follow the Masters and what they say...they have the LAW to back them up...even if is against common sense and Logic/Reason...they don care...its pathetic how the masses allow this shit....and it could be the result of dumbing down the population for better control....

40% of Americans do not read...some unable and some refuse to read...there are tons of peeps who never read a good book since grade school...this is the GOPs Legacy

From our first George...his farewell speech to congress

Whad a diff....and he wrote it himself...kinda wordy but its worth it...

We're talking Republicans here. They have no moral codes. They think fair play is a sign of weakness.

pick a repub to be the new AG...I think the lady out in California who put Duke Cunningham away and then got fired by Karl because she did a good job, would be a great choice.

Obama is gonna be Roves match...both play chess...but Obama is the White Knight...not Rove the Rook....

An obstructionist playing politics...a total turd.

Obama reaches across the aisle to the likes of Mitch and all he'll get is a hand full of the same old reich wing BUshit.

They will do all they can to weaken us, hurt us, beat us...

an they play dirty too....

Fuck um all.....

That's the name of the GOP's game...if they can't or don't own it, the bye gawd they mean to destroy it!

...and then watch the resistance to Holder vanish...

We all know what an unholy terror he's been the last two election cycles! Look out! Run! PH43R!

Color me less than worried. Obama seems to have taken Mr. Rove's measure, and found him wanting.

and Obama seems to have figured out how to counter those and make the Rovians hoist themselves on their own petards.

My bet (though it's still early to be able to tell much) is that the Rethugs will make a loud screeching noise, but won't be able to stop Holder.

the joint, the jug, the cooler, up the river. .

If he can't screw up Obama's Justice Department.. he'd better start looking for offshore housing.


He is SO guilty.

Maybe that plan is that he already knows who's going to vote for and against Holder, and he can just stand his ground and watch the Republicans get shouted down.

Maybe it's a little more sophisticated - sort of like that Price Is Right strategy Obama's taking for the stimulus bill.

I suspect that Obama's enticed a few moderate Republicans with some tasty earmarks if they vote for cloture.

Assuming Reid has a fraction of his balls left. Just recess the Senate, then Obama makes a recess appointment which lasts until 2011.

Karl needs to be locked up where he can't hurt this country anymore.

They will remain sorry losers.
Still Dems deserves this - Rove should be in a cell in a maximum security prison.

That means it is a good choice.

how's it worked out for the repuke party in general? Oh, that's right, it's been a catastrophe.
