The Old Red Lady of the Old Gray Lady Translates Rove for Us with the Usual Liberal Spin
Maureen Dowd[1], never a convert to moderation or any meaningful for m of objectivity, it seems we can comfortably conclude after a limited inquiry of her NYT articles [see Ref 1 for a lengthy list], has published a translation of what Karl Rove said for our education.
We read from a previous post about Hillary on one of her characterizations of Hillary and Obama, now designated O’Bozo after his antics with Ayers, Jeremiah Wright and the Tax Zombie:
“The lioness of Chappaqua is hot on the trail of the Chicago gazelle, eager to gnaw him to pieces, like a harrowing scene out of a George Stubbs painting.”[2]
The lioness has crawled back to her lair to wait for the jungle to take its toll. She now designs for 2012 where she can pick up the pieces of the Obama Wreckage and tell us all ‘she told us so.’
From the current piece from the New York Times —aka the Walter Duranty Papers[3]-- we read:
“Karl Rove was impressed with Barack Obama when he first met him. But now he sees him as a “coolly arrogant” elitist.”-- More Phony Myths By MAUREEN DOWD June 25, 2008.[4] [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]This link references all quotes in this essay unless otherwise stated.
Really? So, he is not an elitist and racist enabler?
“Obama can be aloof and dismissive at times, and he’s certainly self-regarding, carrying the aura of the Ivy faculty club. But isn’t that better than the aura of the country clubs that tried to keep out blacks? It’s ironic, and maybe inevitable, that the first African-American nominee comes across as a prince of privilege. He is, as Leon Wieseltier of The New Republic wrote, not the seed but the flower of the civil rights movement.”
Here, the Old Red Lady concedes the point with the school yard taunt that elitism of the Ivy League sort soars beyond the arrogance of the country club set. My guy is a snake, but he is a smaller snake than your guy. She just amplified Rove’s comments. He is an elitist! Shall we review:
“"And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."[5]—Barack Obama off camera in what he thought was a safe environment to express his views.
What could be more arrogant or elitist than that comment from the Chicago gazelle??
She drones on:
“Conservatives love playing this little game, acting as if the “elite” Democratic candidates are not in touch with people like themselves, even though the guys doing the attacking — like Rove, Limbaugh, O’Reilly and Hannity — are wealthy and cosseted.
Haven’t we had enough of this hypocritical comedy of people in the elite disowning their social status for political purposes? The Bushes had to move all the way to Texas from Greenwich to make their blue blood appear more red[sic][6].”
We must presume that FDR, the Kennedy Kluster, Vinegar John Kerry[7] and are not elites and above the confused mumblings of the unwashed. This was called slumming in the 40s. Vinegar didn’t drive a SUV—that was the family car.
And then, addressing the penchant of liberals to embrace our enemies since the Korean Conflict:
““Charlie Black crassly argued in Fortune that a terrorist attack would “be a big advantage” for John McCain. And what’s scary is, Black is the smartest adviser McCain’s got.”
We are waiting for two things here:
[1] For some liberal to tell us that the left want to win the War on Terrorism.
[2] To explain why the terrorists, including Hugo Chavez, support Obama, now known as O’Bozo. We all recall the 60s radicals who cheered Ho and wanted us to lose in Viet Nam.
A loss in Iraq would provoke a long celebration in the streets of San Francisco. Any increase in unemployment is proof that Bush’s capitalism is failing and we need more taxes for any reason.
“Rove’s mythmaking about Obama won’t fly. If he means that Obama has brains, what’s wrong with that? If he means that Obama is successful, what’s wrong with that? If he means that Obama has education and intellectual sophistication, what’s wrong with that?”
There is no myth here. Rove stated the facts. Dowdy Dowd has not debunked anything and returns to the original premise as the dog returns to its vomit. The facts here are that Obama has 20 speech writers and tracks the narrow left liberal line. That does not require brains or style; it is the path of a political stooge. Obama is a racist enabler and a tax whore and would support the Islamo-Fascisti if he had a chance. His desire to talk with Iran without conditions is more urgent that his desire to talk to our soldiers. He would give money and aid to Castro and Kim given a chance and celebrate their achievements.
O’Bozo is just another Marxist stooge poured form the old rusty moulds of the far left and devoid of any novelty. He could come in a plastic box, battery included, with a slick zoot suit, a candy cane for his song and dance and some Dylan tunes for $19.95 and the liberals would buy him for parties as they snort Angel Dust.
Obama has not personality: he is a leftist political construct. He has no identity.
But, what else do we expect from liberals, mere stooges of Marxism?
