Karl Rove likely behind laptop theft

[nine30]

I have no proof of this, but then KR has a long track record of pulling dirty tricks to malign his opponents. Earliest known incident was back in 1985 when he had a bug planted in his candidate's office and "discovered" it shortly before the election. Needless to say his candidate won by a huge margin as a result.

KR is smart enough not to leave finger prints behind, but judging purely by the timing of the crime, I am suspecting its Wicked Karl.

1. That way he could spin the news faster, get his old mom and dad to

help. LOL

2. So, let me see

They want to protect us and keep us safe, but they cannot keep their own laptops with their "secret plans" safe? They cannot do security at their own convention? Give me a break!

[nadinbrzezinski]

3. That is the general plan

From: Karl
To : All GOP area managers

Remember folks we want to win this one. Hence we need to pull our dirty trick handbook out and improve on it. I will leave all cretive work to you

Sinceerely

Unka Karl

They have done this for so long that the only ones NOT thinking this was Karl Rove, are the Cops (maybe) and the ever so astute Media... oh and Joe Six Pack who has no clue who Karl Rove is

[demconfive]

4. They have "secret plans" for the elections....

...but didn't have any plan for post-war Iraq?!

6. Hard work...man!

bush was on vacassion keeping his daughters on a leash..

5. Rove is not that powerful

Always has amused me to see Rove assigned the Master Boogeyman role everywhere on DU. Goddamned Rove tinfoilers eat shit! He is a two-bit punk and vastly overrated. He operates on a more macro level than pissant thievery at the local level.

The theft was by some overzealous Seattle lefties; I know the type well. Probably voted for Nader in 2000 (they were the scumbags protesting DEMOCRATIC HQ IN SEATTLE while we - including the governor - were watching the first Gore/Bush debate inside), and mooch off their parents while stealing for bong money, and are desperately trying to atone for 2000.

No go... no Rove, no atonement for Naderite shitbags either.

7. Rove is

a lowdown scumbag. Having met the bastard many years ago, I'm sure he would sink to that level.

[Zomby Woof]

10. bullshit

Scumbag, yes, but evil mastermind behind every thing on every level? Unmitigated bullshit, with flies buzzing around it.

And not one of you Rove-sniffers has EVER come up with proof of his "dirty tricks" when it comes to these kinds of stories. It's all paranoid "could be!" speculation. :tinfoilhat:

Me, I deal with facts, and the fact is, Rove is more of a macro-level propaganda spin crafter, and nothing more.

[murielm99]

12. Thank you thank you.

A couple of months ago, I posted something to that effect. I said Rove was not ten feet tall. Not everyone wanted to hear it.

He is a two-bit dirty trickster, but his reach is not as long as some here imagine. If he was guilty of half the stuff people here attribute to him, someone would have rebelled by now, or bungled, or exposed a major trick in some way. Remember the Watergate burglars?

Yeah, he is slimy. I despise him. But let's not give him more credit than he deserves. Remember, * is not really all that smart. I believe he is cunning, but with average intelligence. Remember that they have been called the Mayberry Machiavellis.

We will bring these people down.

14. I know I know but the way Rove has acted

is the same way his master acted... he learned well

There are plenty down the road and in the chain of command who know what they can and cannot get away with

Was this Karl directly? Nope, first off not his style, second, he cannot be every where at the same time

Was this done in the dirty trick squad, or method? There is a good potencial of that...

This is where Karl is significant, and there are, as we speak, many younger students of Karl who are learning the dirty tricks that will be used in oh 20 to 30 years at the national level.

This is how Karl is related to this...


Just as Norquist is

Just as any of these assholes are...

You do not have to DIRECTLY take the computer, or the files... it is your example and teaching of the young ones

Could this particular case be a bum? Yep

Could this be poltiical? Yep, you betcha.

Remember the fact is. we must win at any cost, and ethics have no bearing on this.

[Gore1FL]

9. Ii agree with you overall

but Rove deserves credit as a masterful evil spin doctor. Goebels was a two-bit punk, but did what he did.

[Swamp Rat]

15. I'm sure Rove would find it amusing that so much power has been attributed

to him. Like the other alien lizards, he just playing a role... notwithstanding that reptiles are very vain creatures. Remember Wolfie, the comb, and the lizard spit?

8. Chris Vance wishes he was KKKarl Rove

Unfortunately, he's more like Chimpy and his pal George Nethercutt. In other words, a fucking moron. As could be said about anyone who puts "sensitive information" on a LAPTOP and then leaves it in the office, in front of a large window, in the core of a large city.

Laptops are portable, Chris... Ever think of taking the damn thing home with you?

BTW, anybody know if the Parlockkk family's left West Virginia any time recently? This sounds like something Phil would do for the team....

11. Vance is a fucking asswipe

His wife was a customer of mine when I was slaving at Barnes & Noble in Seattle back in the day, and I reallly had to hold my tongue to tell her what I thought of her nazi-fuck of a husband. She was pleasant enough, but one ignorant dumbass to marry that asshat. If she only knew my impure thoughts while I rung up her purchases...

13. stealing is HARD WORK
