I Once Shook Rove's Hand

It was fat, soft and sweaty. Afterward, I sniffed my fingers: I think the bastard stink-palmed me. An entire tiny bar of hotel soap it took to clean away the odor. The feeling, sadly, is still with me. How this cheap, college dropout, Himmler-clone ever made it is beyond me, but it is a testament to the failure of the American political and judicial systems that such a corrupt creature is allowed to roam free. Turd blossom? No, just a turd.

You gotta admit

Karl Rove a very sexy man with a stellar personality.

Isn't black culture funny to fat what douchebag assholes?

There is nothing funnier than a crackerass cracker trying to be a wigger. I hope his kids stab him in his sleep out sheer mortification.

I almost choked on my lunch...

That was one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. Did you see KR actually take his cell phone out of his back pocket and read it during the middle of the rap? It is obvious why Rove has no hobbies, he is too busy destroying the world.

heh!

He always gets a bad rap.

*runs and hides*

-- wysiwyg

well said. all he's trying to do is restore a little diggity to the white house.

Oh leave poor Karl alone

He always gets a bad rap.

*runs and hides*

Shudder

I was completely caught off-guard when I saw this on one of the morning shows. I was sure it must have been a look-a-like, but then they interviewed the two comedians who started it all. I try very hard not to comment on people's looks but Rove is one of the creepiest looking people and he didn't do himself any favors with this performance.

Rap Sheet

Probably as close to taking the rap as Rove'll get.

Did anyone else...

... misread the headline as "Grand Wizard Turd Blossom"?

Thursday, March 29, 2007 09:11 AM

This is so creepy...on so many levels...

...still, I can't wait to see was Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert do with THIS footage! Stay tuned.

This is embarrassing on multiple levels.

First and foremost, the sheer spectacle of this puts me almost beyond words. Karl Rove is a truly execrable human being, and I hope some resourceful prosecutor somewhere is able to bring him down.

On a different tack, I cannot BELIEVE that Brad Sherwood and Colin Mochrie stooped to this level. I've long been a student and performer of improv, and "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" was one of the forerunners in bringing improvised performance to the world at large. Personal politics aside, this "performance" of theirs was stunningly unfunny pandering.

I agree with other posters; give me Colbert over this monkey dance anyday.

Locutus

I've noticed that same phenomenon. Any "journalist" that attended this thing has no credibility. Zip, zero, nada. They ought to be ashamed.

4 Minutes of my life I'm never going to get back

Almost wish you hadn't told me about it. If there is a hell, this is what it looks like.

Think I'm going to spew now...

I just watched the YouTube clip

I'm deeply ashamed once again, that this is my country.

It's interesting that

when Bush is laughing and joking, rational people are shocked into stunned silence.

When Bush is grim and trying to be serious, rational people are laughing.

Thursday, March 29, 2007 08:15 AM

That was....

...the worst thing ever.

Thursday, March 29, 2007 08:07 AM

And so, Tigellinus rapped as he and his Emperor, Nero, dragged the Empire...

...into one disastrous failure after another. Seems like some things never change when you have an administration that is a throwback to imperial courts whose highest ministers were nothing more than a rogue's gallery of actors, dancers, jugglers and charioteers.

leave the guy alone

he's just building up street cred for his trip to the big house.

Thursday, March 29, 2007 07:41 AM

Yuck

I see someone beat me to it - posting about this morning's gag-worthy Today Show reference to our "Comedian in Chief." Followed by a giggling description of Him being upstaged by Rove and the Pips. It was too cute. I'm sure the beltway insiders just had a marvelous time.

Makes me want to re-view the You Tube footage of last year's dinner.

MSM and Bushies in bed together

Worse, NBC's David Gregory was up there with him, all jovial and frat-brotherly, playing backup bitch to Rove's grotesque rhyme bustin'. And Gregory actually joked about it on the Today show this morning, like it was just harmless antics. Never have I seen plainer evidence of the incestuous relationship between Washington and the corporate media.
