Karl Rove is the unelected agent responsible for much of the mess our country is currently in. It was his advice and guidance that put W in the White House and led to the countless disasters that constitute W’s Presidency. And he did those things by exploiting fear, rank partisanship and divisiveness. When the list of Great Americans is compiled, Rove clearly belongs nowhere near it. On the contrary, one might ask whether he really wanted to damage our nation. Whether he wanted to or not, he certainly succeeded in doing so.
This article accurately describes my view of Mr. Rove. I won’t miss him when he disappears from public view, although it won’t happen soon enough.
