I just got off the phone with Karl Rove.
He's pretty busy, getting his affairs in order, and all.

3. Several DU'ers pointed out that RAPE of any kind isn't funny
and prison rape IS a problem. It makes for a really tasteless and offensive joke.

Perhaps we can be more sensitive and understand this.

10. So you hope Rove gets raped and will laugh if he does? It's okay
to cheer on rape?

18. Then why post the photoshop if they don't go after old fat guys in prison?
Edited on Wed May-17-06 09:37 AM by cryingshame
because you thought it'd be funny if they did?

It's hard to imagine after something so horrible you'd take the subject so lightly. Did you enjoy getting raped in prison?

I mean, you posted that happened to you in prison and seem to think nothing of intimating the same would be funny if it happened to Rove.

One would think you'd have psychic scars that would preclude making light of the subject.

11. The implication was not of rape
at least that is not the way I saw this post. I saw it implying something consensual.

I understand the sensitivity, just don't see it as the case this time.

19. I didn't see this that way. However....
I didn't see the joke that way. I seen it as HIM finishing up HIS personal 'affairs."

Your right, rape isn't a laughing matter. No matter what kind it is. However, let's put this in historical context. Rape in war has always been to put others in complete submision and to prove domonance over them. We see this in the animal kindom as well.

In cases like this (Rove), he has seen him self as 'untouchable' and totaly 'god like.' Mere mortials can not touch him in any shape or form. Totaly no fear of punishment of any kind. The 'idea' that he COULD be 'prison raped' puts him on the same footing as everyone else. Everyone knows that rape of any kind is wrong, it's no joking matter. That ROVE is on the same level as everyone else... That is a different story all together.

But the reality is this. Jokes aside, such a thought will not happen to Rove. EXCEPT in cartoonage. IF he isn't pardoned, he will be considered a 'special security' case. Kept seprate from the general populaton, etc.
