Rove: Palin can be VP because she was Mayor Small Town in AK

[terrymadison]

No wonder Fox so-called "news" hired Bush's Karl Rove all the while lying every day that they are "fair and balanced". Rove LIED that Obama has "ratchet[ed] up his requests for earmarks each year he's been in the Senate." The truth is Obama has requested NO earmarks in 2008, while Palin has requested $197 million in earmarks, which, according to The Seattle Times, amounts to "more, per person, than any other state." Per-capita, Palin has requested more than 10 times the earmarks than Obama.

For your information, Mr. Rove, according to the 2000 U.S. census, Wasilla is "13th" largest city in Alaska, population, 5,469! The largest city is Anchorage, population260,283 (as of 2000). Wag that dog, Karl!!!

Whichever way the wind blows, Karl . . .

All this admiration after he said on Face the Nation that Gov. Kaine would be a bad choice for democrat VP because "he's been a governor for three years, he's been able but undistinguished. I don't think people could really name a big, important thing that he's done. He was mayor of the 105th largest city in America. So if he were to pick Governor Kaine, it would be an intensely political choice."

Palin has been governor for less time and was mayor of a smaller city, but somehow she's better?

Fairbanks is the second largest city in Alaska, with about 80,000 in the borough. Wasilla has between 6 and 7 thousand people.

"A mayor of .., I think the second largest city in Alaska? What about a "a mayor of a city of 6000"?

Rove is a putz.

Dangerous, devious and deranged - but still a putz.

Rove lies like a dog.... Sorry, that was an insult to dogs.
