Rove's vile attack on Bob Kerrey and Max Cleland
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=536&ncid=536&e=4&u=/ap/20040901/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_rove_interview

Kerry aides, ordered by their boss to respond to virtually every attack on his military record, hastily arranged a conference call with two prominent veterans, former Sens. Bob Kerrey, D-Neb., and Max Cleland, D-Ga., who accused Rove of coordinating with a GOP-leaning group of veterans that has been attacking Kerry's combat record and later anti-war activities.

Cleland noted that two Bush campaign aides resigned when their ties to the group were revealed. He said Rove should, too.

In the AP interview, Rove strongly denied that he is linked to the group. "Those guys ought to stop drinking from the swamp. The fevers are getting to them," he said.

1. The more Karl Rove is in the news
The less likely Bush will win.

The fact that he is slipping out from the shadows shows just how desperate the Bush campaign is.

5. Rove / shadows
He always reminded me of cockroaches. Now I know - he's scuryying around in limelight now. He'll either get crushed or return whence he came.

:eyes: Just like they did with John McCain in 2000, they're trying to paint them as crazed Vietnam Vets, sickening.

8. Karl Rove Talking About Military Service?
That's like a Catholic priest explaining what its like to be married.

What's next, advice on fashion, or tips on staying slim and trim?

9. What a fucking slimeball
Edited on Wed Sep-01-04 06:40 PM by kerryedwards4USA
He really has a lot of credibility attacking a Medal of Honor winner and a person who lost 3 limbs in Nam. He's really the scum of the earth isn't he. Cleland could kick his ass with 1 arm.

13. They certainly are!
I don't care if I have to work at 8 the next morning, I'm staying up until midnight to watch Kerry's speech tomorrow night, he's going to throttle the Chimp! :D

14. If anyone would know about "swamps"
that would be the scum-sucking bottom-dwelling monster, Karl Rove.
