Rove Calls Biden 'Liar' After VP Boasts of Scolding Bush
Aides to former President George W. Bush are challenging the veracity of Vice President Joe Biden's claim this week of having privately castigated Bush.

Republican strategist Karl Rove called Vice President Biden a "liar" on Thursday, dramatically escalating a feud between Biden and aides to former President George W. Bush over Biden's claims to have rebuked Bush in private meetings.

"I hate to say this, but he's a serial exaggerator," Rove told FOX News. "If I was being unkind I would say liar. But it is a habit he ought to drop."

Rove added: "You should not exaggerate and lie like this when you are the Vice President of the United States."

Biden's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment, although Biden spokesman Jay Carney told Fox on Wednesday: "The vice president stands by his remarks."

1. Rove calls someone else a 'serial exaggerator'

Although in Rove's defense

He's a compulsive liar

[FreakinDJ]

2. Take the Bastards to court for Authorizing Torture

That will shut the fuckwads up once and for all

[L. Coyote]

38. And charge them with LYING too!

This is the propaganda organ at its finest Wurlitzer fidelity :rofl:

Seriously, this is Fox controlling the dialogue, avoiding Bush torture, et.al.


1. Bush kidnaps and tortures innocent foreign citizens
2. Bush lies, "We do not torture."

3. Biden says, "You are a lying torturer."

4. Rush says, "I smell a possible lie in what Biden said."
5. Fox News executives run with the story about Rush starting a playground verbal dispute.
6. Foreign citizens watch Fox and think, "..... we need to prosecute them all for torture, Bush and Fox."

3. Can we PLEASE THROW THIS SH*TBAG IN JAIL...Enough already!

Why, oh why, is Rove allowed to roam free? If there were justice in America, he would be someone's "bitch" in jail.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

4. Oh, that's rich

slimy little oinker.

[tomm2thumbs]

5. (focusing really hard on Rove swallowing his tongue...focus, focus...)

He's stirring the pot hoping to get a reaction - he probably just needs to change his underwear to feel better.

[flvegan]

6. Can ANYone tell me why, why he's not been taken into custody?

Is it just our spineless, complicit group of hacks we call Congress?

[bottomtheweaver]

13. If he keeps this up he just might be.

Bring it on, turdblossom!

[cap]

23. Rove has not been taken into custody because our DOJ has been corrupted

Holder is using the Stevens case to clean house. The Republicans can't squawk because Stevens is one of their own. Holder is firing a lot of folks right now.

If Holder tries to do anything right now, it will blow up in his face. Holder needs to get a high profile republican criminal case mishandled so that he can get rid of the current head of criminal investigations (a Bush plant).

[pjt7]

25. Why doesn't he just fire the current head of investigation

& put in a real go-getter?

[cap]

37. too politically charged and would backfire

my guess is that Holder is assigning the current head of criminal investigation a poison pill. If he eats it, he's toast. Holder will tee things up so that the guy can not afford to not eat the pill.

It's like trying to get someone to commit hari-kari.

[NJCher]

40. that makes so much sense

I was just speaking with a fellow Dem (not a DU-er) and he remarked that it will be a year or more before we can rid ourselves of all the bush plants.

They had eight long, miserable years when they worked relentlessly to fill these positions with political hacks. It is unrealistic to think we can get these people out overnight.

[No Elephants]

44. Not really.

[No Elephants]

43. Holder does not need a reason to clean house. Every President does that when he

takes office following an administration by the opposite political party. Reagan did it after a Democratic President, Clinton did it after a Republican President and Dummya did it after a Democratic President. Obama can do it whenever he wants. They are political appointments. Even in the Civil Service slots, you can fire folks, just not as easily or quickly.

[tomm2thumbs]

7. to quote the WWW...

'these things must be done DELICATELY, or you hurt the spell... all in good time, my dear, all in good time'

[merh]

8. Maybe now the gloves will come off

and Obama/Biden will stop protecting Rove, et al.

They need to investigate the bums and hold them responsible for their crimes - violations of the constitution, federal law, international law, abuses of office. Hell, there is a federal statute which makes anyone that orders torture or is involved in torture a crime.

It is about time they prosecute Rove, the compulsive liar, and his bosses.

14. Exactly.

If he manages to get Joe mad it isn't going to be pretty.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

15. If anything, this makes it more difficult...

If Rove is to be put behind bars it needs to be fully apparent that it's because he's a thieving, murderous crook, and not because he's feuding with those who currently hold office.

[ProHeloPilot]

16. I don't see the Administration moving towards indictments

And sadly, none at all.

[merh]

17. He is a thieving, murderous crook and that is apparent to any one

that has been paying attention - the "feud" should be an awakening to the "good guys". It should be their "Maw Mobley" moment - the rattlesnake has thawed a bit and is deadly - time to cut the head off.

[Dinger]

31. That's What I Was Thinking/Hoping

I'm sick of hope, I want action.

[webDude]

9. Projection, anyone?

nt

[Kalyan]

11. look who's talking ...

if Rove had even an iota of dignity & morals - he would have surrendered to the FBI & confessed his crimes. that he hasn't got any dignity is a open secret - he should push his tail between his legs & retire peacefully, else remember that this admin will haul him to the docks ...

[bottomtheweaver]

12. wow, Rove the cast aside tool calling out the sitting VP.

Keep it up Karl and we might actually see some prosections. :thumbsup:

[Djinn]

18. while the pot kettle black part is amusing

I have to wonder why Biden felt that privately castigating Bush was the way to go, why not publicly? He wasn't a naughty school boy he was the "leader of the free world" and started a war based on 100% total and utter bullshit. Why say "naughty naughty" behind closed doors?

[Swagman]

19. like the last VP told the truth ? Rove should be prosecuted

[EFerrari]

20. LOL. That's hilarious. Karl Rove who made his start in politics

by faking break ins and buggings.

[acmavm]

21. That is a big fact that has slipped for the Amurikan public's collective

memory.

Now, he's fat, rich, and (to too damn many) 'respectable'. A journalist (gag) even.

Amazing. Just a sign of our times. Up is down. Bad is good. The rich get bailed out.

[Turbineguy]

22. Being called a liar by Rove.

Boy that's bound to upset Biden.:rofl:

If Biden doesn't call Rove a piece of shit it's only because he doesn't want to be Captain Obvious.

[pjt7]

24. If Eric Holden does not

go after the many Karl Rove crimes, this Country is finished.

It's that simple.

Put the real criminal away, Justice Department.

[secondwind]

26. I remember the day Biden said this! WHY DIDN'T ROVE COME FORWARD THEN?

[pattmarty]

27. If it wasn't for right wing rags and think tanks, Bill Sammon................

..........would be working at McDonalds. This motherfucker has had more jobs since I have known of him than any 10 normal people. This guy deserves the "Goebbels award" for his propaganda reporting.

[Deep13]

28. LOL

Sure, I'm going to believe an evil bastard like Turd Blossom and not a stand-up guy like the Vice President. :eyes:

[INdemo]

29. Why repeat this Faux News bullshit..

Would we really expect a confirmation that this was true from Faux News..
Repukes need only to make one statement on any issue and from that point it seems that its Democrats that repeat their message so a majority know about it...But then there are so many Repuke trolls on here now it might be a Democrat thats repeating Karl Rove's BS..

[L. Coyote]

39. Rove "a backbencher in the U.S. House of Representatives," "backbencher(s)". NICE MOVE Karl!

I had to go read it, and check to see the title is verbatim. It is verbatim Fox "news" pulp.

Anyways, there is real news to repeat in the story.

Rove has to go testify to Congress, right,
and he just said what of the House members?

He called the Representatives "backbencher(s)". :rofl: NICE MOVE Karl! :rofl: That's worth repeating!! :rofl: "backbencher(s)" :rofl:

Karl, meet Mr. Conyers :rofl: :rofl:

[Epiphany4z]

30. project much?

Rove is a joke without his guy in office ....

[JerseygirlCT]

32. The irony may be too rich for breakfastime...

Unbelievable. These idiots just do not know when to go away.

[Magleetis]

33. As much as I

hate shrub, rove and the whole rotten bunch. I wish we could move beyond them and they would just go away. Why do we have to keep hearing their shit. You lost now go away.

Oh, and fuck you CNN and Faux for enabling them.

[Torn_Scorned_Ignored]

34. Rove and Friends belong in Jail

Just around the cove
She was told.

Look out, there’s the snarl!
Oh how I dread that he said
You.

Don’t talk to your TV,
You don’t know what
They see.

Light waves
E-chips
Fox News
Autumn.

Alberto Gonzales
Digitalized.

Hangman.

[florida08]

35. Castigated Bush?

He should have been impeached but I would hardly call what Biden said as castigating Bush:

“I remember President Bush saying to me one time in the Oval Office,” Biden told CNN on Tuesday, “‘Well, Joe,’ he said, ’I’m a leader.’ And I said: ‘Mr. President, turn and around look behind you. No one is following.’”

Now doesn't that sound exactly like Joe..always respectful yet assertive. Rove is a known liar and conspirator. Fake News as usual trying to stir up hatred for the new administration.

[Festivito]

36. THEN, how about a debate UNDER OATH carl-snarl?????

How about a nice discussion, no holds barred under oath, your guy and our guy...

I've got a big smile on my face.

[Torn_Scorned_Ignored]

45. Hey Detroit!

good at Hangman are ya?

[CBHagman]

41. Wrong veep, Turdblossom.

Rove added: "You should not exaggerate and lie like this when you are the Vice President of the United States."

Rove is obviously thinking of Cheney.

[Buns_of_Fire]

42. Damned shame that Turdblossom didn't think of saying this seven or so years ago, isn't it?

But then, ex-president-Shit-fer-Brains wouldn't have let his high executioner badmouth the REAL Power-Behind-The-Throne would he?

[Reterr]

46. Why doesn't this disgusting pig of a man just go away?

Just shut up Rove..Nobody cares what your flabby ass has to say about anything..

[sakabatou]

47. The irony! It hurts so damned much!!

[bemildred]

48. Me! Me! I want Rove to call me a liar too! nt

[and-justice-for-all]

49. Blah blah blah..Rove is a fucking criminal and should have a..

gag order placed on him.

[Wabbajack_]

50. So Joe Biden really said that to Bush?
