Even Karl Rove Thinks McCain is a Liar
If you’re a Republican and freaking Karl Rove says your campaign ads have gone too far, your campaign is officially in self-destruct mode:
WALLACE: All right, and for fair game, what is McCain doing that goes a step too far?
ROVE: Well, McCain has gone in some of his ads — similarly gone one step too far, and sort of attributing to Obama things that are, you know, beyond the 100-percent-truth test.
That last part is Rovian double-speak for calling John McCain a liar.
Wow. This is a bit like being labeled a sleaze merchant by Bob Guccione or Larry Flynt.
Update: Team Obama watches Fox:
“In case anyone was still wondering whether John McCain is running the sleaziest, most dishonest campaign in history, today Karl Rove — the man who held the previous record — said McCain’s ads have gone too far,” said campaign spokesman Tommy Vietor, in a statement sent to reporters minutes after Rove’s on-air comments.
Also, Turdblossom is apparently pissed that Democrats are failing to mention his criticism of the Obama campaign. Thing is, we expect Karl Rove to be saying shit about us because that’s how he pays his bills. Criticizing

It’s interesting how the dems continually slam Carl Rove, until his statements reinforce their vitriol for the republicans. Actually, Rove said that BOTH dems and republicans ads went too far, but the dems just want to make it look like Rove said the Republicans went too far. I don’t care what the media says, if you connect the dots, it’s obvious that Obama’s lipstick/pig comment, which came just days after Palin scored points with her pitbulll/lipstick statement, was an ugly sexist response from Obama. Now, Obama is crying that he was misinterpreted, while the media, once again assists him in playing the victim. The deck has been so stacked in favor of Obama, whether it’s the media’s refusal to vet Obama in the first place, to giving Obama free rides with Wright, Farrakhan, Rezko, Ayers, etc.. The media, as well as shows like The View, are continuing to show extreme bias against Senator John McCain, while kissing Obama’s ass.
