Think again. This is an outrage.
Thier intent is to turn American's against eachother, and it's dirty.
Noone should ever be speaking for the President of the United States with intent to divide the nation and incite political bigotry..
this is an active tactic of Bush admin supporters.
In the past, it has worked. I think this time he went too far, even for him.

"(P)erhaps the most important difference between conservatives and liberals can be found in the area of national security. Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and 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."
Karl Rove
Karl Rove (otherwise known as "bush's brain")...is a master at manipulating the masses. (us!) He uses "1984" tactics with Machiavellian adroitness. He inflames emotions with fear & hate to divert us from the real issues and so to create unthinking (one-issue) followers. We have been duped and manipulated like this for quite a while now. In this quote he is trying to divert us from our realization that we have been lied to ....once again using the tactics of hate & fear.
The real issue that he wants to steer us away from of course is that we are in Iraq creating more & more adversaries instead of a safer world. And horrorifically that we are there for reasons that we all now know had nothing to do with our country's defense or 9-11, but only for corporate gain. We were lied to big time. Iraq & Saddam are not Osama.
This whole Iraq war thing sort of reminds me of the fox who got into the hen house and killed the chickens. So the chicken owners decided to go kill that fox...right away...but they couldn't find the damned fox...so they decided to kill the neighbor's dog because he looked a little bit like a fox...and they were "out to kill" NOW!! Of course the neighbor wasn't pleased that they were trespassing and shooting his dog...so he natually got a little upset and went and got his cousin who got his brother etc etc. and before you knew it the whole world was involved.
And then there was the 9-11 commission last year that had solutions that went to the roots of the issues...instead pouring more oil on top of the flames. But the adminsitration only listens to the siren song of corporate greed & simple minded thinking.
Emotions and testosterone are repeatedly, and very consiously, invoked by Karl Rove, master manipulator for Corporate Empire.
Quest
The rotten part of it is the intent to divide and conquer. Those who lap it up, IMO..also carry blame for all the horrific things that have happened.
Hate drives staunch Bush/War support at this time..it's even evidant in the media , and it's scary.
Meanwhile the truth of what's happening remains the same no matter how much name calling, belittling and dismissal of facts goes on.
Master manipulator for the coorperate empire is pretty spot on regarding Rove.
