Thankfully, Karl Rove’s disgusting self has been out of my head since he quit last August, but here we go again, in no small part because of Valerie Plame’s new book, ‘Fair Game.’
Truthfully, I have never given much thought to his Bush coined nickname, "turd blossom," until recently that is. Sure, I get the turd part, but what does blossom have to do with it? I honestly never thought much about it, just never put the two words together, until now. Then a possibility hit me, a thought so deep in the recesses of my mind, that it laid there dormant for over seven years. Bush called Rove "turd blossom," because the fat slob could turn crap into a political flower.
It’s so easy to hate the Bush administration for far too many reasons to count; war, corruption, incompetence. It’s difficult to point your finger at any one thing, because the daily screw ups just keep coming, and that’s the kicker. With Clinton it was one issue, lying about sex. How do you pick one issue with Bush? It’s like whack-a-mole.
Clearly the Bush administration purposely created all these crises not only for their sick ideological manifesto, but more so to stay in power. They attacked Afghanistan, Iraq and the constitution to appeal to the religiously insane and the idiots who know no better. That’s Karl Rove’s modus operendi, that it’s all about politics all the time and to hell with what’s best for the country and the vast majority of citizens. Rove even announced prior to the ’04 election that Iraq was a winning political strategy. Think about that for a second, that in their minds politics trumped the reality of war. That they would willingly sacrifice tens if not hundreds of thousands of innocent lives to win a f**king election.
And impeachment’s off the table?
And then it ended. Rove had to go quietly into the night to save the king, because his plan to create a GOP generation was over. He was over. The turd blossom turned back into what it was all along, crap.
