KARL ROVE insults KERRY and MURTHA, and MOCKS their MILITARY SERVICE
Edited on Tue Jun-13-06 02:52 PM by Julius Civitatus
Fresh off the hook from a possible indictment, and feeling invigorated and untouchable after getting away with treason, Karl Rove came back to the political scene today by insulting John Kerry and John Murtha, and viciously mocking their military service in Vietnam. It's important to note that the dough-boy Machiavelli never server in the military and dodged Vietnam as well:

Karl Rove Taking Bullets?

Never one to let the facts or delicious irony stand in the way of a vicious political smear, today Karl Rove took a swipe at war heros Sen. John Kerry and Rep. John Murtha, stating, "They may be with you for the first few bullets but they won't be there for the last tough battles." Rove, of course, never served in battle, dodging the draft for nearly three years of the Vietnam War. He's in good company, though-- the Vice President received five deferments from going into battle himself.

"Unfortunately for the American military, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove and their merry band of draft-dodgers won't be with you for the first few bullets, the last tough battles, or anywhere along the way," said Christy Setzer, Communications Director, Senate Majority Project.

See, now that he got away with TREASON, he can get away with anything. Now the sky is the limit for Rove.

1. Let's not forget Dush Limbaugh
and the 'pimples on his ass' that kept him from serving!

And of course O'Reilly, who fought with his pen!

4. Some kids are raised with a handful of basic ethical tenets which
parents feel are of essence to American citizenship.

In my household, and in my parents' households when they were children, was the understood rule that one does not mock war veterans, that service is a condition of high citizenship.

Rove is a diseased rat in the first place and smearing people is his specialty. What a horrible man, what a reprehensible model for young people. A soulless lizard.

He got away with TREASON. There's nothing in the way of his dirty tricks anymore. The bastard is above the law.

10. It irritates me that Murtha and Kerry don't come back at him and mention
that Rove never served and avoided the military.

18. Kerry response here:
http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Kerry_spokesman_rips_into_porcine_Rove_0613.html

<snip>

"The closest Karl Rove ever came to combat," said Kerry spokesman David Wade, "was these last months spent worrying his cellmates might rough him up in prison. This porcine political operative can't cut and run from the truth any longer."

Wade continued: "When it came to Iraq, this Administration chose to cut and run from sound intelligence and good diplomacy, cut and run from the best military advice, cut and run from their responsibility to give our troops body armor, and in November Americans will cut and run from this Republican Congress."

14. Kerry's Spokesman Fired Right Back -
Wade continued: "When it came to Iraq, this Administration chose to cut and run from sound intelligence and good diplomacy, cut and run from the best military advice, cut and run from their responsibility to give our troops body armor, and in November Americans will cut and run from this Republican Congress."

15. Same thing the "chickenhawks" did to Max Clelland. You would think
that some in uniform would take such smearing of former combat military as an insult but they must be mindless Rambo types who can't or who refuse to think for themselves.

17. Let some of those biker redneck Vietnam Vet types who
flock to soldiers' funerals to prevent the Phelps Klan within eye/ear distance of the families and friends get ahold of him. I dare say "Squeal like a pig, Boy!" will have a new meaning.
