So Bush’s “brain” will leave office at the end of the month. After all the damage Karl Rove has wreaked upon this country, that’s IT? He simply walks away? As John Edwards said about the matter: “Goodbye. Good riddance!”<\/p>\n

Lest you start getting misty, here are a few choice quotes from the master puppeteer:<\/p>\n

ON VOTING<\/strong>
\nAs people do better, they start voting like Republicans – unless they have too much education and vote Democratic, which proves there can be too much of a good thing.<\/p>\n

ON 9\/11<\/strong>
\nConservatives saw the savagery of 9\/11 in the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9\/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers.<\/p>\n

ON THE IRAQ WAR<\/strong>
\nCindy Sheehan is a clown. There is no real anti-war movement. No serious politician, with anything to do with anything, would show his face at an anti-war rally.<\/p>\n

ON DEMOCRATS<\/strong>
\nI think it’s dawning on some Democrats that obstructing the Patriot Act, like they’ve been obstructing everything else, is bad for them politically. At the core, we are dealing with two parties that have fundamentally different views of the world and fundamentally different views on national security. Republicans have a post-9\/11 view of the world, and Democrats have a pre-9\/11 view of the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
