WJ: President and Rove under attack from Gingrich

[malaise]

from the WP this morning.

<snip>
President Bush has presided over a Republican Party in "collapse." Karl Rove's strategy in the 2004 presidential election was "maniacally dumb" for focusing so heavily on the conservative base, and the CIA, among other agencies, begs for "radical transformation."

The words of Howard Dean, the Democratic National Committee chairman, perhaps? Or John Edwards, a Democratic candidate for president? House Speaker Nancy Pelosi?

None of the above.

The harsh assessment comes from Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker who engineered the 1994 Republican takeover of Congress.

Taking questions - should be fun.

[H2O Man]

1. Mr. Gingrich

is the neoconservative candidate for VP, because he has been one of Cheney's top assistants in running the OVP's shadow government operations.

I'm going to try to get through to ask about Newt's role in the Plame scandal.

4. I'm listening

Hope you get on.

[H2O Man]

5. It is hard

to get through.

2. Some Of The Worst Gingrich Bashing I've Heard Lately...

...came from some people who I would have thought would be begging him to run..."conservatives". A person lit into Gnewtie blaming him for creating the messes we're in now and then cutting out. He said it was Gingrich who turned the House into a Whorehouse (and yes, 435 attention whores) and sold out the party to the lobbyists.

Now who was I to stop him? :rofl:

3. Love the call from that man

Gingrich is just the latest rat jumping fromthe ship of Bush - Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah :rofl: :rofl:
