Never say goodbye

The only man in the world to successfully convert a sow's ear into a silk purse (however fake), known as turd blossom or Bush's brain, has resigned from the White House as of the end of this month. Do not say goodbye. I don't believe Rove will disappear from the political underground, the "dark side," as Cheney likes to say. I don't know what Bush/Cheney/Rove are up to but you can be sure it does not bode well for the country. Perhaps he plans to join Cheney in his underground bunker beneath the secret rock to plan the further destruction of the Democrats. He certainly is not resigning "to spend more time with his family." Indeed, for him to even suggest that is insulting in the extreme, little more than thumbing his nose at us once again. He is quite likely planning how to defeat Hillary whom he thinks will be the (fatally flawed) Democratic candidate. Of course he could merely be advising Bush/Cheney on how to get more troops killed while stealing more money from the taxpayers, or taking more food from the mouths of babes, or shortchanging our returning veterans, or ridding New Orleans of more blacks, or any one of a number of Republican priorities. Wait and see, but expect the worst. I wouldn't be too surprised to learn that he may have cut a deal with the Democrats - I'll resign if you just forget about all of my transgressions. That sounds like the kind of ridiculous deal our gutless Democrats might go for. They seem to have already forgotten about impeachment so why not let Rove off the hook as well.

The MSM have written Kucinich off as a candidate. They have decided that he is a non-candidate and have "disappeared" him. They seem to agree that there is only one choice at the moment and that is Hillary. This is a win/win strategy for the corporate powers. If Hillary loses the general election they get another Republican, if she wins they get a Republican lite. Clever, no? Of course this can't work if Gore were to enter, or if Obama could somehow get the nomination. They are not about to let this latter happen. It's not clear what they will do if Gore were to enter. I think they regard his entry as improbable. I have no idea what the relationship between Hillary and Gore might be at the moment. I believe only Gore could keep us from just plain "more of the same."
