Does anyone have a source for Karl Rove's idiotic...

[complain jane]

stunt where he bugged his own office and then screamed about his office being bugged?

Someone mentioned it here the other day, is there somewhere I can get a little more info about it? Or, information about ANYTHING similar would be wonderful right now...

Thanks!


on edit: I meant anything similar that Rove has done.

2. Here's a link to a Buzzflash interview with James Moore

who co-authored the book "Bush's Brain" with Wayne Slater. The book chronicles Rove's sinister background and dirty tricks M.O.

4. The movie "Bush's Brain" covers it...

and the FBI found the battery had a 6 hour life span
and had been in the bug 20 minutes before Rove "found" it.
