AQ PHONE HOME — by Steve Nadis
Contrition is for wussies, Rove has consistently advised his protege, W, which is why he has taken such an aggressive stance in defending one of the Administration’s most recent criminal activities. As we all know, Rove has been keeping a low profile for several months due to his possible involvement in another criminal activity–revealing the identity of a CIA spy.
But not to worry, Karl is back with a vengeance, and the media is eating it up. Now that he’s in the limelight again, Rove’s schedule for public appearances is bursting. He was last seen practicing with White House choir for a performance of “Rendition!”–a show tune adapted from the “Fiddler on the Roof” classic, “Tradition!” Entertainment sources say a Carnegie Hall appearance for Rove’s “White House Singers” is “not out of the question.”
No surprise to those of us who saw Rove in "Bye, Bye Bill of Rights," "Damn Demmies", "Phantom of the White House," and, his most amazing performance to date, "The Lyin’ King".
On the other hand, Rove’s lies pale compare to the outright BS Attorney General Gonzales is dishing out today. He (on behalf of Bush) is claiming that Congress WAS notified of the secret spying, and if they really thought it was illegal, they should have spoken up then. In other words, Congress–not Bush–is responsible for any illegalities that may have occurred.
Incredible what people can accomplish once they decide the truth is just roadkill on the highway to power.
Thanks, Gatemouth. I like that expression — "roadkill on the highway to power." And "The Lyin’ King" (which sounds like a possible bumper sticker?) But you have to wonder, is all this a veiled cry for help: "Stop me before I kill again."
LOL…..I love "The Lyin’King." What do you think of W’s "new" relaxed style?
I must’ve missed it. When did he wake up?
My,my Rove has performed in some major musicals. I like the crash course. Great expression straight from the gate’s mouth: “Incredible what people can accomplish once they decide the truth is just roadkill on the highway to power.”

I’m sure Karl and the Republican sound machine would have NO problem with something like this if, say, Hilary Clinton had done it. They’d be behind her 100%….either that or starting impeachment proceedings.
Yeah Doc, they’d be behind her all right, stabbing her in the back. Z: apologies accepted; I knew you weren’t really comparing my sweet little innocent girl to that evil man. And I agree w/you FW, Gatemouth is hilarious–a star in our mist.
Excuse me for getting serious for a moment, but has anyone in the Bush administration stated what they *aren’t* allowed to do?
Good point, TB. There seem to be no limits. You might say, whatever they can get away with. But that seems to be everything, because even when they’re caught redhanded, they go right ahead–with even more bluster and indifference. This I believe.
Oh, but only for the good of the country. Yeah, right. Without respect for human rights, what good is it? But, so many just take it & believe only the best of our leaders. Stand up people. Remember: Of the people, by the people, for the people. The government is OUR servant. Sit! Heel!
Thanks for standing, Snake.
Thank you Ardist, though I wish I was actually STANDING rather than sitting here at my computer mouthing off.
