Conservatives, he told the New York state Conservative Party just a few miles north of Ground Zero, "saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war."
This comment is unfair. The vast majority of Americans supported the invasion of Afghanistan. In balancing Liberals vs. Conservatives Rove is clearly talking about the bulk of the Democrats. The people he is describing in reality are a very very small group. I think you'll likely see the Democrats make a lot of noise about this because of the amount of noise Conservatives have made about comments by Dick Durbin, Eason Jordan, Howard Dean, etc... I think that screaming for resignations every time someone says something you disagree with is whiney, but in this case the Republicans kind of have it coming. RE: Dems want Rove to Resign |
