Karl Rove Wanted the Gay Sex

Karl Rove suggests there is such a thing as playing too dirty in politics.

Oh, Really.

He tells his fans on Fox News not to use Barack Obama’s middle name Hussein because that doesn’t help John McCain.

ROVE: Look the “Hussein”…using his middle name helps Obama, it doesn’t hurt him. So anybody who wants to help John McCain ought to stop using…

Lessee, John McCain. That’s the same guy that has an illegitimate black baby with a prostitute according to Karl Rove in 2000. Callers push-polled members of a South Carolina right-to-life organization and other groups, asking if the black baby might influence their vote. Rove also said Cindy McCain was a drug addict.

And here’s where the gay sex comes in.

According to interviews given with some news outlets, Republican Jill Simpson says Karl Rove had her spying on former Alabama Governor Don Siegelman hoping to get pictures of him having gay sex. Rove was gunning for the one-two hate punch. Those so-called Christians who could forgive Siegelman for imaginary, rumor born adultery would never be able to overlook the imaginary, rumor born gayness. (When that proved impossible to validate, Rove pushed for the political prosecution of Siegelman via the Justice Department.)

Rove executed political death by homosexuality in the 1994 Texas race for governor. Ann Richards was defeated by George W. Bush after a whisper campaign that the governor and mother of four children was a lesbian.

And most of us have heard the rumor that Hillary Clinton is a lesbian.

Rove knows how to manipulate an election and decimate a candidate–playing to what certain voters fear and loathe most. This whole business on Fox News that Rove touts standards…

But this idea of getting up there and using the guy’s middle name in order to imply something about him is…it goes too far.

Bet Rove has his own political poison darts juiced up for Obama.

(Props to Legal Schnauzer for the headline idea.)
