Karl Rove carries projection to new heights -- on FAUX News, of course.
ROVE: This White House has carried pre-packaged, organized, controlled, scripted events to a new height, and they’re getting away with things that in any previous White House, the media would have eviscerated the press secretary and the White House for it.
Amazingly, Rove is not referring to the White House he served.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Family Values Republican Class of '94 "plagued with scandal." In the 14 years since that star-crossed class arrived in Washington espousing an agenda that placed family values at its core, no less than a dozen of its members have been caught up in affairs, sex scandals or in messy separations and divorces from their spouses that, in more than a few instances, led to their political downfalls. The problems started almost as soon as they took office, and by the end of their first year in Congress, the marriages of at least four Republican freshmen had collapsed.
Why is anyone surprised? Family Values, the Contract with on America, Christian Values and etc. was an advertising campaign, folks. As such it had very little to do with reality. Kind of like Ginsu knives ...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Speaking of false advertising ... "Mark Sanford has backed out of a promise to release personal financial records to the media proving he did not use state money for trips to see his mistress." Sanford (GOP Class of '94) is toast. And depending on what those records show, he may be toast facing corruption charges.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Republican congressional hopeful Mo Brooks is taking liberties with the facts over at Flashpoint, emphasis mine: Historically, Griffith’s tie-breaking vote in the Alabama Senate that empowered the socialist wing of the Alabama Democrat Party to control the Alabama Senate ...
Of course, there is no "Alabama Democrat Party" and I dare, in fact I double dog dare, either Mo Brooks or the proprietor(s) of Flashpoint to produce any evidence of such a thing, let alone a "socialist wing" of it. Continued use of "Democrat Party" rather than "Democratic Party" makes you sound like a petulant little kid. |
