Rove blames bulge on Bush's back on "flamboyant" tailor

[PA Democrat]

On one sideline row during the campaign, Rove said the president's tailor was devastated about a controversy over a box-shaped bulge in Bush's back that television cameras captured during the first debate. The mysterious bulge spawned speculation that Bush aides were feeding the president advice secretly through a radio receiver tucked under his suit jacket.


"Nothing was under his jacket," Rove said.


"The poor tailor ... he's an awfully nice fellow, he's a rather flamboyant dude," Rove said. "I'm not going to use his name, but he's just — he's horrified. And, you know, it's — there was nothing there."

Is "flamboyant" code talk for gay? God, not only do these liars blame the bulge of the idiot's transmitter on bad tailoring, but they have to insinuate that the tailor is gay as well?

1. Rove has this thing about gays, doesn't he?

Hmmm...Feeling urges, Karl? Dial 1-800-Jim-McGreevey and ask him about the word "beard".

2. It's his tail, all devils have one, n/t

3. "I'm not going to use his name" says KKKarl

Isn't it something like "Georges De Paris" or something equally as pretentious? Anyway, so effing what if he's flamboyant... what the hell does that have to do with supposedly lousy tailoring?!?

4. Flamboyant lies

so cute, so unnecessary. According to Rove myth most people are too dumb to give a damn.

5. We know his name and we know he's French

And we also know he's incredibly stupid and servile for going along.

edit: I only mention he's French because Rove would never ever say something like that to the ignorants who hate the French for having their own opinion

6. NOT FLAMBOYANT AT ALL..HE HAS MADE SUITS FOR EVERY PRESIDENT

EXCEPT FOR ONE (MY GUESS: JIMMY CARTER) SINCE JOHNSON.
THERE WAS AN ARTICLE ABOUT HIM IN THE NY TIMES MAGAZINE 4-6 WEEKS AGO. HE'S A VERY QUIET, OLD MAN WHO WORKS 16 HOURS A DAY AND IS THE CUSTOM TAILOR TO ALL OF D.C. BIG WIGS. OKAY HE'S SINGLE, BUT HE'S MARRIED TO HIS JOB. I TTHINK HE WAS QUOTED SAYING IT WASN'T A BOX EITHER, BUT WHAT'S HE SUPPOSED TO SAY?
TRUST ME, I HAVE MADE A FEW JACKETS IN MY DAY... THE CHEAPST SUIT IN THE WORLD DOESN'T DO THAT UNLESS IT'S GOT A BOX UNDER IT!

10. Can an interview be obtained with this gentleman?

I'm sure he can clear up this box-shaped flamboyance

7. "And, you know, it's — there was nothing there."

If he is talking about chimp's brain, it's true.

8. Rove got one right for once

He's absolutely right. There was nothing under Bush's jacket, especially anyone qualified to be president of the United States.

9. Oh, yeah. I believe Rove over a specialist on photograph

analysis.

[havocmom]

13. I'm a tailor. Believe me, that was NOT a wrinkle. Nor was it a vest. n/t

11. how does the man live with his lies?

If there was a every a God, then why isn't he knocking this guy to his knees...what a liar.

[checks-n-balances]

14. He's the epitome of the pathological liar: arrogant enough to do it on TV

in front of millions. I think he truly has no conscience.

So does that mean he's a psychopath? or a sociopath?

Maybe both...

In the end the massive damage he will have done will be unfathomable, so he's a criminal and a thug in any case.

All this praise he's getting makes me think of the "You can put lipstick on a pig..." saying.

[Northern Experiment]

12. What?!

How naive could people be to believe that??

N/M, look whose president.

15. Dear Karl Rove: Eat Shit And Die You Lousy Son Of A BITCH!!
