Thread Name: BS: Bush's Brain Under Indictment?
Subject: BS: Bush's Brain Under Indictment?
A quick snippet from this morning's Times UK:
"was Rove who crafted the new Republican majority in America: that of a religiously centred party dedicated to steering the largesse of bigger government to its own faith-based and corporate constituencies.
It was Rove who used the war to marginalise fiscal conservatives alarmed at spending and libertarian conservatives worried about civil liberties. It was Rove who forged a difficult alliance between a growing conservative intelligentsia and evangelical Protestant voters.
It was Rove who decided that a wartime president, rather than seeking national unity, should use the war as a means to drive a wedge into the Democrats and consolidate his own supporters. It was Rove who was the architect of a 51% strategy of playing to the party base, and expanding it, especially among blacks and Latinos, rather than reaching out to the centre."
So, anyone heard any betting odds on whether he and Scooter will be indicted?
