Rapping Rove

You may not be able to read this unless you are a paying customer of The New York Times, but the lead editorial is titled “The Rovian Era” and begins: “Turn over a scandal in Washington these days and the chances are you’ll find Karl Rove.”

It goes on to detail some of the dirty stuff that the President’s chief advisor, not subjected to scrutiny, has done to poison with partisan politics every aspect of the Bush Administration and ends by suggesting that Congress force him to testify in public.

Much as I dislike self-quotation, Rove deserves less decorous treatment. Try these for a start.
