Karl Rove thinks you'll say things about him on the Web that you wouldn't say to his face...
Video clip of fat ass at the URL below:

Charlie Rose to Karl Rove *What makes you so evil?*

At the end of a byzantine question on Wednesday night’s program, PBS’ Charlie Rose asks Karl Rove, “what makes you so evil?”

“Well I can’t answer that completely,” Rove replies. “I do have a theory though about the Internet. I think the Internet grants people a pseudo-anonymity that allows them to say things that they would never say to somebody in person and never put in a letter but would feel comfortable saying as accepted political discourse on the Internet, and after awhile it becomes ingrained in accepted practice.”

“It seems to go deeper,” Rose says.

“Beyond me,” Rove replies.

The following video is from PBS’s Charlie Rose, broadcast on November 21, 2007.

1. The coward would never appear in front of anyone that wasn't a right wing bootlicker.
He appeared in front of the general public he might get lynched.

But I better check with Alberto to see if that's official torture first....

3. He's Absolutely Correct, Sort Of
If I saw Rove in person, things would get far, far uglier than anything I'd write on the 'net.

4. He doesn't know me
very well. I would say anything to his face
that I would post on the net. I have often been
told I was blunt, frank, and pulled no punches in
real life.

6. Try me...
I'd gladly go to jail (and to pay for a good lawyer) for a chance to tell him off.

7. It's Karl Rove
who concocts his dirty tricks and smear campaigns behind closed doors and is scared to death of taking people on openly and directly.

10. I'D Love The Chance To Tell KKKarl A Few Things
face to face without any of his thugs around. And what is this BS about pseudo-anonymity. They know who we all are anyway. Hey Karl, you're an asshole and that is a lot kinder than what I would say to you in person.

13. Karl Rove is a dung beetle who rolls his master Dubya, then plants lies in him and waits for them to
damage his opponents.

16. I had a nasty bit of Karl Rove stuck to the bottom of my shoe once.
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't scrape him off. I had to throw away the shoes, and I really liked them.

17. He must have forgotten about the demonstators
Edited on Fri Nov-23-07 01:17 AM by NI4NI
that hollered and screamed at him as he was being driven away from a speaking engagement; Perhaps none of them ever talked about him on the net.

And technically, having eggs thrown at him like they did does'nt count.

20. That is all he knows!
I waved a sign in his face in Las Vegas back in 2004 that said "Peace in Patriotic" and if his slimy butt had crawled out of the SUV he was riding in I would have said plenty to his face.

He said in his SUV and smiled and me and gave me a thumbs up....I guess that was his famous charm I have heard so much about. He wasn't thinking about getting out to talk to anyone...all he wanted was the gate to open up so he could inside the gated community and away from us.

22. OMG he is SOOOO right!!!
He's so intimidating, with his wiggly jowls and pear-shaped fighting machine body!

:rofl:

He's so used to a controlled exposure to the scumbags populace that he thinks everyone is meek and fawning.

You need to get out more, Pudgy!
