Karl Rove Doublespeaks about BushCo.

In a wide-ranging session with reporters, Mr. Rove suggested that the president ranked with Theodore Roosevelt as an environmentalist and predicted a close 2004 presidential race. He said the Republican Party had been strengthened by the controversy over Senator Trent Lott, and he played down his own reputation as the most powerful behind-the-scenes White House adviser, on both policy and politics, in generations.

Asked how Mr. Bush compared with Teddy Roosevelt on foreign and economic policy, Mr. Rove replied that the president is a populist.

"Give him a choice between Wall Street and Main Street and he'll choose Main Street every time," Mr. Rove said.

emphasis mine

What bunch of horseshit. You can quote me on that. Right now I cannot fathom the thinking that goes into the bullshit that Rove spews. Bush is the opposite of any environmentalist [pdf]. If this is not lying, I don't know what is.

I cannot even bear the patience to try to refute Rove's bald-faced lies and double speak.

Do they think we are all idiots? I mean, the temerity. I always get the feeling that the machine could care less what anyone but a small cadre of loyal supporters thinks. The populace be damned.

Have a good weekend. I'm out.

Can you spell ENRON out of that oxy-moron??
Can you say, what happened to the '75 Clean Air and Water Act?
When you have right-wing hawks, being supported by oil money, in GW's ear, we all lose.
It is time for Protest...the "silent majority" who have lost their 401k portfolio's, need to be heard!!
