If Rove doesn't like her, then I like her already. He is the last person who should be evaluating one's character. He was part of the brain trust that presented the mess that was Harriet Myers.

I agree that is Karl doesn't like her that's good enough for me. Does he think Clarence Thomas has the intellectual strength to be on the bench?

She graduated from Princeton and Yale, but she doesn't have "intellectual strength?" Rove, who has only a high-school diploma and enrolled in college for just long enough to get a Viet Nam deferment, seems to feel he has the "intellectual strength" to make that judgment.

You can't make this stuff up.

Gee what I heard Karl say, between the lines was "I don't think this dumb, unqualified, difficult, mean, minority woman should serve on our supreme court.

Oh I forgot...she's a liar too.

Why would anyone consider what this guy has to say on this topic? He was involved in the sickness that permeates the justice department starting or at least including Harriet Myers. This guy is a joke...and certainly lacking in intellect, perhaps a clue as to why he cannot see it when it is presented in a competent, intelligent individual.

the source is obviously biased but the comments appear legit.

this is such superficial bullshit. i fucking hate these old, corrupt assholes. It doesn't matter who Obama picked, Rove would be saying the same shit. Next is Rush, then Newt, and then Cheney blasting her. Right down the line of washed- up bastards. Just watch.

Karl Rove, W's favorite "turdblossom" buddy, the master of the dirty trick political manuever has to open his spud about this fine woman, who is clearly a superior intellect.

These Fox news gropers are simply relentless in their "subtle" disparaging remarks. Did you catch their comments following the clip of Sotomayer's candor? The comments were not that "judges" create policy, but only "liberal" justices do so.

Well, on the bright side, perhaps she will be sitting on the Supreme Court when Karl's involvement in the Valerie Plume case comes before it.

Funny, that is the same thing people say about you, turdblossom. You were called Bush's Brain, and we no how that worked out. Really smart decisions. You were considered divisive by insiders. There is certainly consensus there. And your co-workers definitely did not like you to judge by their public comments after you lost power and could do them little harm.

Well, THIS was a completely predictable move - dear Republicans- it's now official - you have jumped your shark, and nuked your fridge. You are COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT to contemporary politics in America, serving only as whiny babies who cannot understand how they lost their majority. Here's a hint: - YOU SUCKED AT GOVERNING. Now please SHUT UP and fade away.

This pick won't make it. She's a known bully, hard, closed minded woman that most of her colleagues deplore.

Rove is right!

Carl,

Why don't you just go hide yourself ?

Rove is commenting on intellectual prowess? How droll.

Why isn't Rove under arrest for ignoring federal subpoenas ? !
