Whose Smiling Now? Not Rove...This one's for Bleever


hat could be nicer. Compare your reaction to looking at this Rove classic to looking at Bleevers
great post with the picture of Rove election night 2004. Just think about the two photographs.

THANKS Bleever for planting that smiling Rovian image from 2004. It's all the incentive many of us
need to keep fighting the relentless forces of tyranny. It starts with belief in the dignity of individuals and groups to chart their own destiny.

Would that eye lie?

2. The picture above was from the interview where Rove said
he had "THE math".

I have no doubt that it was the vigilance of so many people (exemplified by TIA, autorank, and the ERD stalwarts) that made it impossible for Rove to pull the same thing he did that dark, dark night in November of 2004.

To all of you, my compatriots:

6. Can't argue with that
And you know how I like to argue......

I thought I'd be feeling tonight like it was gonna be 2004 all over again.
What the hell happened?

7. I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it.
I think it's going to take a while.

And I really think that there was just too much scrutiny for major election fraud, from folks like us all the way up to the talking heads in the corporate media.

Of course, I think we deserve the credit. We were on this back when all we got for our trouble was ridicule (even from the likes of Kos!) To quote the theme song from Michael J. Fox's old show "Family Ties", "Where would we be, baby, without us?"

8. Yeah, we did it.
I wonder what they will come up with next?

Anyway, it is sweet these days. I have a new congressman and all but one of my candidates were elected.

The other day I told a political mentor of mine that maybe I was wrong about the machines. He said, very emphatically: "No you weren't".

Shoot, we even have most all of DU still talking about the machines!

3. Kick...this is a classic. Excellent juxtaposition

Of course Rove is guilty. Just look at this picture in Bleevers post. It's perfect evidence,
not for court but for the general public. They know the score.

9. Calling the Shots:


It's a little different now. Just ask Susan...oh, sorry; she had to resign.

One piece of advice, Karl: don't try running from this crime. You won't get away. And you already hear it coming to get you. Don't you, Karl?

13. Three.

A Poem for UL, on this week of breaking the back of the beast:

Perhaps the concentrations
Are controlled by mere salinity;
But the membranes of democracy
Osmose truth, and thus divinity.
