Listen up, Bush-whackers.

Seems that Karl Rove tried to smear Don Siegelman, an Alabama Democrat.

I guess it just goes to show that there is no depth that neocon Republicans will go to get what they want.

Just like he tried to smear John McCain in the 2000 election with a whisper campaign alleging that he had fathered a black child out of wedlock. (He has an adopted daughter from Bangladesh.) As a result, McCain lost the primary that year.

I've read accounts of this story before. I'm glad it will be brought to the masses on 60 minutes. The JSH crowd doesn't seem to care.

Aw, don't tell me you lefties are troubled by The Architect. The man is pure genius. If he would turn left liberal the left wingers would be saying he is the greatest individual to walk the face of the earth.

Hey, I can admit that Obama is a great organizer,speaker and very articulate. But I would never vote for him as he is so far left - he sits to the left of the Clintons, rather scarey.
Plus has no experience.

And, what about all the hacking you two throw on anyone who is Republican, conservative, christian, even moderate or centrist, and most of all President Bush and his administration????

Tide is getting turned and you do no like it. Perhaps you will start getting mature minded and care about the country instead of just complaining for the sake of hating the other side of anything.

But you guys with your hack jobs, makes one wonder...........

Ms. Lindy,

First of all, Rove is no genius. If others had his morals, or lack thereof I should say, they could be a "genius" like him, too. He has no conscience. He will smear anyone to accomplish his political mission.

Secondly, I do not hate Republicans, conservatives or moderates. I consider myself a moderate. There are many Republicans that I admire, not necessarily agree with, but admire nonetheless. Presidents Bush 41, Reagan, Ford and Eisenhower. Here in Maryland, we had a fine man named Charles "Mac" Mathias serve as a Republican U.S. Senator for two terms. Barry Goldwater. There are others.

And one thing I can say with confidence, is that all of them have morals far superior to Mr. Rove.

We really need another Goldwater conservative in office. Unfortunately, there's no such thing these days.

It's been demonstrated to my satisfaction that an innocent man is sitting in jail. And I don't care what your party or political persuasion is, injustice is injustice.

that's another story....this one was about Rove allegedly asking someone to take a picture....this someone has changed her story a few times...

so you were at the trial or have read all the transcripts or have you just found some articles that satisfied you?
