So this happened and I can't believe I have heard anyone say anything. Not even a diary. Seriously. See below...
This article comes from The Huffington Post posted on April 3. Karl Rove was speaking at the University of Connecticut. A UConn student who said he was an Iraq war veteran, demanded an apology from Turd Blossom for one of the single biggest foreign policy disasters in American history. The response was sadly predictable.
"Can you take responsibility and apologize for your decision in sending a generation to lose their humanity and deal with the horrors of war which you have never had the courage to face?" the student, Ryan Henowitz, asked.
Rove refused to apologize, saying former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein posed a threat to the United States.
"I appreciate your service, but I’m not going to apologize for our government doing the right thing in removing Saddam Hussein from power," Rove said.
As much as that angers me, I wouldn't expect anything else from Mr. Rove. But what happened later is really what sets me off. Burying the lead in the posting as Karl slams every Democratic potential presidential 2016 nominee (also predictable) it ends with:
“I want you to do everything you possibly can to get Pocahontas in the race,” Rove said.
Maybe it's just me and I wouldn't mind a correction here, but I haven't heard any reply from Sen. Warren, the other potential candidates, native Americans, or any other Democrats rallying to support her. This is hate speech, pure and simple. Not only does he attack Sen. Warren's heritage, but he's degrading all native Americans down to a stereotype. If he wants to go there, I would personally like to start sending emails and henceforth refer to Mr. Rove by his new name, Stupid F**k.
2:39 PM PT: Wow, rec'd list! Thank you, Kossacks. I'm sorry it had to be about something so ugly but I felt it needed to be out there.
